About O Cookshop

O Cookshop is a popular Jamaican restaurant known for its large portions and flavorful food. Customers praise the food as delicious and fresh, with many dishes offering a nice spicy kick and good flavor. The chicken is often described as juicy, flavorful, and well-seasoned, with some mentioning that no extra salt or pepper is needed. The rice, whether rice and peas or spinach rice, is fluffy and tasty, often enhanced with oxtail sauce for added flavor. The oxtails are a common highlight, praised for their flavor but also noted to be very fatty, which some customers find disappointing, especially given the high price of $25 for small oxtails. The mac & cheese is considered okay, better than many other Jamaican restaurants but not outstanding. The cabbage can sometimes be cooked a little more, and the menu appears to have limited options. Prices are seen as reasonable, with a typical meal costing around $47 to $100 for multiple dishes. While the atmosphere is clean but not very welcoming, overall, many find the food satisfying and plan to return to try different items. Despite some concerns about the fat content of the oxtails, O Cookshop is regarded as one of the best Jamaican restaurants in Essex County.
