Wow!!!! Must try!! The food is incredible. I had a plate with rice and beans, lentil stew, mac n cheese and sweet potatoes. Great vegetarian options! The vegan patty was awesome too! The flavors are so delicious! The portions are generous and the staff is so warm and welcoming. Can’t say enough great things about this place. It truly made my night being there. I’m sure you’ll love it too!! Thanks for all the good vibes!

I saw this restaurant posted on Instagram and finally decided to try it out. I ordered the chicken pasta with soursop juice, and everything was amazing. The food was delicious, and the restaurant was very clean. The guy with the locs who served me provided 10/10 service.
I will definitely be back!

Super below average food. Jerk Chicken is dry, rice and peas is dry. Barely give any sauce even when you ask for extra jerk sauce. Cabbage had no flavor. Mac n Cheese is sub par, it was hard and inedible. I wouldn’t eat here again. Portion size is not good either for the price they charge for a plate.

Great food from Jerked Kitchen. The jerk chicken was moist and full of flavor, the collard greens were well seasoned, and the passion fruit-soursop drink was a perfect blend. Carlton was amazing. His recommendations were spot on, and he even called after delivery to see how I liked everything. A1 customer service.

My wife is currently sick and in the hospital, so l stopped by the restaurant to get some food. The ambience is immaculate for a Jamaican restaurant, and the food was delicious. The guy with the dread locs provided top tier service. I've been to Caribbean restaurants all over New York, and never have I spoken with someone so pleasant, patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The level of service is unprofessional and discourteous from the start. The lady server’s rude demeanor creates an uncomfortable environment that is unacceptable for a customer-facing business. I do not spend my money where respect is lacking. This experience reflects a clear failure in basic customer service standards.

I am a vegan and I love coming here. I always get a lunch plate with their lentil stew (soooo good). Almost all of their sides are vegan as well! Their patties are also vegan and super tasty. Every employee I have encountered here has been nothing but kind. I live about 25 mins away but always stop by when I’m in the area!!

(Also get a juice when you stop by, they’re great!)

We absolutely love this place! We’d been wanting to visit for a while, but since most of my hospital appointments were in the mornings, we hadn’t had the chance until now. It was well worth the wait—the jerk chicken and sides were incredible, full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The atmosphere was warm and lively, with great music and an inviting ambience. On top of that, the lady who helped us was wonderfully pleasant and attentive, making the whole experience even better. We can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu!

They ruined beef pre-made patties for me. Their fresh beef patties are large and worth the price. And the curry goat was honestly the best I've tasted 😋.

Greatest food ever. I'm glad i ordered the Jerk Chicken Bowl White Meat. It was seasoned perfectly. I'm definitely going back. The Small Rum Cake was delicious. The Small Bread Pudding was amazing. I just had to review it and let it be known on how good this place is.
