“Heard about Nadia's Jamaican Kitchen form an acquaintance. It's reputation definitely proceeds them! It did not disappoint. Took my mentee for dinner, it was bomb. Ambiance 5/5 Located on the corner of a shopping area. It's replaced the $5 pizza spot. General seating is good. 2 booths and side tables that seat 2, very clean, faux trees, tantalizing smells and great atmosphere. Caribbean music, Bob Marley of course. Open kitchen family feel with bar to seating to watch your food being prepared. Service 5/5 Very friendly, prompt, courteous and helpful service. Nadia herself inquired about the food and did it meet our expectations. It did!!! Food 5/5 Not cheap but worth it. We ordered Oxtails, red peas and rice, coleslaw $28 Jamaican Patty $5 Jerk Chicken $14 Rice and peas $5 drinks: $15 Overall 5/5 and would come back!“
“I love that the menu is made up of both tapas-style options and full entree dishes from the Caribbean + also New Orleans- some of my favorite flavors! The food is delicious, the staff is friendly and helpful. Both the cocktails and NA drinks are fantastic, and the ambiance is a welcome addition to North Loop + the Twin Cities-- festive, fun, relaxing, good vibes.“

“My new favorite restaurant. Everything we had was amazing! We had shareable plates, so we could try a bit of everything. We couldn't stop eating. Then, the leftover collard greens were great in an omelet the next morning lol. I'll definitely be back.“
“At last, the calamari is back on the menu, this is super tasty. New drinks, this rum beverage was quite tasty, and served with enough mint for me to bring home and use in cooking for the next week, also the bartenders, servers and cooks are all super friendly and nice“

“Definitely recommend! Large portions. Spicy & tasty w/o being "saucy". Suggest early day being best since they close around 8pm. If you're a 'spicy fan', I extra suggest. Decorated walls will keep your eyes busy & wowing the history on them.“

“I'm visiting from TX for a conference and we just ordered food via Door Dash. Hands down some of the best soul food I have ever had. They even have vegetarian/vegan options for my husband. The fried chicken was perfect, Mac & cheese was phenomenal, plantains was *chefs kiss* and I 100% stole my husbands collard greens bc they were SO GOOD. 10/10 recommend.“
“The food is amazing, the employers are amazing, the feeling is amazing. Their welcoming with an uptight attitude. Which gives the great impression of "you better choose anything, because everything is good". I left with the feeling of being accepted. The G.O.A.T,the friend who insisted this restaurant, definitely had a great time as well. I had Sweet Fried Plantains with a Coco Bread Sandwich;pulled pork and chicken and a Jamaican pineapple soft drink.My beautiful and amazing friend had Jamaican Slaw, Kingston Style Jerk Chicken and Sweet Fried Plantains. Our sauces were Jerk Ranch Sauce, MN Nice Sauce, and Kill Dem Wid It Sauce. P.S this restaurant removed the feeling of anxiety. The ambience was satisfying, loud, and exciting.“
“Food was delicious! Service was spot on. We got some bruschetta and their deviled eggs. All super delicious apps. Beef stroganoff - noodles cooked perfectly and prime rib bits in the pasta were tender too. Chicken and wild rice soup was super creamy and yummy. Husband got a spicy pasta and it tasted amazing too. Food and service were great all around. Def will be back! Speak easy down stairs was a real treat as well! Great date night spot in a historic building.“
“A small unassuming shop, but the food knocked our socks off! We loved the flavors of the Montego Bay bowl and my wife did a build-your-own bowl which was also fantastic. Fresh mango and veggies on the side were delicious - but the Calypso egg rolls were just amazing. They have a bold crunch and a delicious sauce that I just can't get over. I'm still thinking of them!“
