“I dined in for an early dinner and ordered the Brown Stew Chicken w Yams & Collard Greens, Fish Soup, and Watermelon Juice. Everything was very tasty! The yams didn’t have much additional flavor though but I didn’t mind because as a side they just absorbed the sauce from the Brown Stew Chicken and got flavored that way. Also they seem to use pretty fresh produce so all the produce had more of its own natural flavor - yams, collard greens, as well as the cabbage and carrots in the Stew, and the okra in the Fish Soup. The flavors in the Fish Soup seemed unique to me and I really enjoyed it. The soup came with a tasty dumpling in it as well (not sure if there is a different name for this dumpling but I will be doing more research on Caribbean cuisines). I also liked that there were not bones in the soup as I often expect bones when ordering most meats from Caribbean restaurants but I’m not a fan of dealing with them. The Brown Stew Chicken while very tasty and flavorful, does have bones in it. Everything was well seasoned and salty, but not to an offensive extent at all - just perfect and as expected. Last but not least, the Watermelon Juice was a very refreshing addition to the meal that was much appreciated after walking in hot weather. It tasted like fresh fruit and was sweet but not too sweet! It was honestly a real necessity at the time, so I’m glad I found this place. I definitely want to come back and try more of their food.

The service was also great! Everyone working there seemed friendly, which is definitely not always the case, and I felt welcome. Someone (the chef?) came out to personally take orders to speed up the line which wasn’t even long, so they seem committed to getting people their food fast (despite “island time” existing in Caribbean cultures). The menu is simple which allows them to have everything ready quickly & at a high quality. The quality of the food is what matters above all, and it seems they understand that. Also be ready with cash as it is Cash Only.

I love the cozy vibe and the old school diner/lunch counter aesthetics, but I felt like the dining room/bar space should be better utilized. I understand this situation isn’t even necessarily their fault as we are in the era of takeout, and they clearly put their money towards making sure the food is good, which is obviously most important. I also understand they are dealing with the fact that their menu isn’t super conducive for the bar/lunch counter setting, and it’s detached from the kitchen, but it has a purpose - it’s where they make and serve the homemade juices. Something as simple as pictures of the main ingredients in the juices could be a low cost way to liven up this area and serve a practical purpose as well. They have big, comfortable tables which some restaurants in the area don’t even offer anymore, so I appreciated that.“

“The food here is very good. I’ve never had Jamaican food before so this was a very good introduction to it. I felt the value for the food was good as well. My only issue with it is that if you eat a lot of it at once, the saltiness becomes very overpowering. That being said, the food still tasted good as leftovers the next day. The person working that day was very patient as I had no idea what to order.“

“Today’s my 2nd time eating there. There’s a young lady who get the orders while the other does the cashier thingy. I appreciate the young lady who serves, she’s very pleasant both times I was there. She deserves a tip. I didn’t care for potato salad and cabbage with the added frozen vegetables, I’m so happy not to have that the first time, and I’ll order again if they don’t add that. Those items are great by themselves. Thank you!“

“I ordered a large oxtail platter with cabbage, yams rice & beans. My yams were very hairy like they were canned yams. I usually order mac & cheese instead. The rest was pretty good it just seems like every visit the oxtail become less & less (stingy).“

“I ordered Oxtail with rice and beans, and Mac and cheese for my little one. Normally I don't eat Mac and cheese but I taste it before giving my little one and the whole platter was superb, very fresh and tasty. I would definitely order there again.“

“I discovered ZumZam a few weeks ago.
I have been hooked since!
The Oxtail 10/10!
The Ackee and Saltfish 10/10! I've had this like 5 times now lol
The Curry Goat was 10/10
The Curry Chicken 10/10
The owner , Zum is always welcoming and his staff is very nice!
I have now introduced my coworkers to his delicious food (he cooks it all himself by the way! ) and they are already planning on what to get tomorrow. I think we finally found our fave Jamaican food spot for lunch!“

“Today, I had a taste for delicious Jamaican food. I live in NE Philadelphia, but I have no problem jumping in the car and traveling to Wharton Street in South Philly to see Mr. Rich and get his curry chicken, rice and peas, yams and greens. My wife likes the rice and peas, yams and Mac n cheese. It is so worth the time and travel.

The owner is caring and personable also. I'm trying to get him to have a location in the NE. I'm sure it would do well, ya'mon. God bless him“

“Easily the best oxtails I’ve had & you can’t beat the price point. The food is so delicious time and time again. I consistently order on DoorDash and delivery is always fast. The food is fresh and they’ve never let me down. I want to try other options one day, but the oxtails got me hooked.“

“Had no idea what food they had, menu link not working. Just ordered what the guy in front of me ordered. Jerk chicken, beans and rice, Mac and cheese. Food was good, ordering area is deceiving, as there is a nice dining room. Will definitely be back once the menu link is working so know what to order. Med portion was huge, got two dinners out of it.“

“The food is great and worth the price.“

“A friend who live in West Philly brought me a oxtail platter with rice & peas & cabbage. The oxtails were tender and flavored well. The whole platter was delicious. Wish I lived nearby.“

“New to the city from NYC, so we decided to give this establishment a try. Didn't have to high of expectations so not to be easily disappointed. The oxtail platter, the pepper steak platter, and the brown stew chicken platter DID NOT DISAPPOINT! All the meats were deliciously flavorful. The cabbage had just the right amount of crunch. The yams were tender and naturally sweet. The Mac & cheese was seasoned to our liking. The rice & Peas gave me a flashback of my Brooklyn days! WE WILL BE BACK!“

“Food was amazing definitely the best Jamaican food spot in philly. Hat off to the chef….
family enjoy the food will be back for sure!!!
Customer service was amazing …
10/10 highly recommend!!!!
Macaroni cheese was the best I ever had from a Jamaican restaurant.“

GREAT EATS ! Recommend that garlic shrimp with the white rice ( mouth drooling ) lol but yeah definitely check them out !“

“best ambiance, great drinks and wonderful customer service“

“The Ultimate Feast with oxtail, jerk chicken, curry chicken and 3 sides is a well prepared-and well-priced meal. The staff are friendly and patiently answer food-related questions.“

“Yes I recommend everyone to Hotspot“

“Wait was worth it! Food was amazing! Staff was beyond friendly and offered great insight into what was good to get! Disappointed I wasn’t able to get the oxtail cheesesteak as they no longer serve but everything superseded expectations! Portions are beyond enough for dinner, lunch and dinner the next day! Waited two hours in traffic to get home to indulge and was still very warm which was amazing! Well worth the 45 minutes to drive and pick up! Will definitely be returning soon! Price, wait worth the delicious food and friendly service we received!!“

“DIAMOND in the Ruff ! !

I was very impressed by menu and more impressed by the taste, from the Caribbean! The Curry Chicken was prepared to perfection! Rice peas and cabbage
mouth-watering . . EVERYTHING was Fresh and cooked right ✅️. Will definitely be back! Don't Let the Neighborhood Scare You, Just Use Common Sense, You Will Be Fine, Trust Me . . . BACK-A-Yard keep making slamming Food ! ! !“

“I love Top Taste. If I wasn't watching my weight, I would eat there more often. For anyone who wants a great breakfast, you will not be disappointed. Not only is the food excellent but the staff is very friendly and efficient. Highly, highly recommended.“

“You definitely need to check this out if you miss home cooking. One of the best I’ve tried that actually tastes like Jamaica food.💕“

“This place is deliiiicious. I’ve only done pick up. Not sure anyone ever actually eats there. It’s encased with plastic, kinda loud from some big fans, hard to hear. But absolutely none of that matters because they have the best jerk chicken you can get in Philly (in my experience so far). I lived in Florida for a while and ate a lot of jerk chicken. And this place does it right. Glad I came in and tried it! The people are nice. I’m a repeat customer. And I have no intention of stopping.“

“The Ultimate Feast with oxtail, jerk chicken, curry chicken and 3 sides is a well prepared-and well-priced meal. The staff are friendly and patiently answer food-related questions.“

“Stopped by today craving good oxtails, and K & J absolutely delivered. I ordered the medium oxtail platter with okra, cabbage, and mac & cheese — plus a slice each of the pina colada cheesecake and lemon cake.

Service: In and out, no waiting. You order, and your food is ready — like the best kind of fast food experience, but with soul.

Food: Everything was delicious. The oxtails were seasoned just right, tender and flavorful. All the sides were on point—especially the mac & cheese. And those cakes? Rich, moist, and worth every bite.

Value: I paid about $31 and easily got two full servings out of the medium order. Generous portions and great quality for the price.

I’ll definitely be back.“

“If this is the place I think the food is very good I bought there a couple of times very tasty healthy portions friendly people good service they even let me taste and try some dishes to see if I like it on a recommendation good people good food good service it's worth a visit“

“I went to the food truck at 34th and Market and the food was absolutely delicious!! I had the fried fish with jerk sauce, mac n cheese, and candy yams. Seasoned very well! And the lady serving was pleasant and personable. I devoured my platter lol“

“The food was definitely official my 1st time coming but the prices and how the charge extra for different sides was a little outta pocket. I got oxtail, mac n cheese, yams. I was charge for yams and Mac extra. The Mac was definitely homemade.Customer Service was horrible, the light skin lady very rude I ask 2 questions she kept saying do you want the food or not. I said yes twice. There's too many jamaican spots or food spots for that to be treated rude.“

“I eat here every week it's delicious only thing it's not open everyday Wednesday through Sunday is good days so if you like good Jamaican food stop by Aunt Annie's a very good cook“

“I found this place just by driving by looking for some good oxtails. Came here and the lady was very nice she even asked me if I wanted more gravy on my food. I was shocked because not all restaurants do that. So thank you for that. Second, I like to say the flavor of that gravy is on point. I love this place already but I can only visit when I'm at work due to driving distance.“

“At the first moment you step in that place the personel give you a pleasant feeling. Very hospitable hosts, it is a good place to go out with your friends or with your date. Great food, talented chef, comfortable cost and generous service. Warmly recommended.“

“My favorite Jamaican spot in uptown. Food is always good, staff is super cool and friendly. This is the only Jamaican restaurant I’ve been to in Philly where the baked Mac and cheese is made right and it’s so good. The BBQ Jerk chicken is one of my faves. They give good portions too.“

“I highly recommend this establishment. The cuisine is exceptional and the portions are generous. I had to request that they reduce the serving size, as I couldn't finish it and didn't want it to go to waste, given that I'm visiting from out of state. I would definitely suggest this place to anyone seeking authenticity. I will certainly return here whenever I'm in town.“

“I ordered from Ron’s Caribbean Cuisine today on Uber Eats and wasn’t sure what to expect—but man, I was seriously impressed! I got the curry chicken with white rice and cabbage, a curry chicken patty, and a traditional beef patty. Everything was so good.

The curry chicken had so much flavor, and that thick broth? I kept going back for more—couldn’t get enough. And the patties? Super flaky and packed with flavor.

Listen here—y’all need to go ahead and get yourselves some of this food! Ron’s is the real deal, and they’ve definitely got a new regular in me.“

“great authentic Jamaican food“

“I LOVE this place. First time there and I was blown away. I had the Shrimp Curry Platter, my family had the Curry Goat and Curry Chicken.

Everything was good!

I would definitely go back and can't wait to back.“

“For a taste of the Caribbean in Philly, Tropical Choice Jamaican & American Restaurant is the place to be! This spot is beloved for its authentic Jamaican dishes like jerk chicken, curry goat, and oxtails, all bursting with flavor. The friendly staff and cozy atmosphere make it a favorite among locals. Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty meal or a quick bite, their menu has something for everyone. Don’t miss out on their delicious sides like plantains and rice and peas. It’s a culinary adventure you won’t forget!“

“This was my first time at Ron's. The food was delicious! It was Sunday the 19th of November 2023. There was Gospel playing "Praise the Lord "! Because I was walking in the spirit. Until my server asked how can I help you. I placed one order, she was ready to walk away, I started in the second, then the third, order dessert and this person said "oh my God", as if I was disturbing her. I wanted to add more but instead said...ok forget it because I don't need you calling on the Lord to serve me. I generally leave the counter person a tip, but all I can do is pray for her. She was the oldest lady there...little puff in her hair. If she is in ownership maybe she have "nuff mass", if not...then she cost them money. Either way...Big up Ron, train your servers to get money,“

“Hmmm good“

“The Oxtails I can testify to. Very Very good. Unfortunately I get there to late for the Caloo which the the healthiest vegetable in the WORLD!
It’s like Greens without the Grease was hoping to Bottled Irish Sea Moss. Uprising is Incredible. Irish Sea Moss replaces 82% of the Body’s Minerals
Everyting Irreey Mon?“

“If you are looking for great Jamaican cuisine. Here is the spot: right on 5th street a busy location. My favorite can’t go wrong is Oxtail, Pig feet, Fried fish and their Fried Chicken. After a long day at work from the hospital this is my must go spot for great comfort food to smooth my soul. The Oxtail is ultimately my favorite I will drive far just for it. Plus perfect for left overs to bring to work. Adds flavor the next day:)
If you want a quick fix their Jamaican patties are great. Easy to hand on hand while walking and driving.
I saw they have soup specials. What even more cute is the have daily specials. I always try to make it on Thursday for the cow foot.“
