Jamaican Restaurants near Linden, NJ

“The food was delicious and the atmosphere A+. This little spot in the heart of Linden is the place to go when you want some delicious and comforting food.“

“My favorite Caribbean restaurant in the area“

“We've had the pleasure of eating many dishes from Jerkies, and everything has been delightful. Standout traditional dishes include the jerk chicken and curry goat. Don't sleep on their vegetarian options either-- the jerk mushroom sliders, jerk cauliflower, and collards and cabbage were all delicious as well. Did I mention the peach cobbler? To top it all off, the team operating this restaurant is top-notch, the kind of people and business you want to support.“

“The Food is Fantastic and creative.“

“This food is definitely worth the money and you get what you pay for....5 STARS“

“Great food and atmosphere I recommend this place to everyone I work with. I'm becoming their best customer lol“

“I visited Sashey's for the first time on April 23 and I must say the food I ordered (curry goat with rice and peas and a brown stew fish) was excellent! In addition, the customer service was on point. I definitely will return again. Take my word, if you want good, authentic Jamaican food, Sashey's is the place.“

“Hot Pot Caribbean restaurant is the place to go when your taste buds are calling for a good Jamaican dish. Highly recommend!“

“First time trying Bones Kitchen and I must say the Jerk Pork is Delightful.....Authentic, I definitely will be returning😋“

“I’m so happy I came across this Jamaican restaurant! Every dish here is freshly prepared. Not sure who the chef is here, but give that man a raise! Lol….authentic Jamaican food is definitely a big plus for this location. They give you many options aside from their famous rice and peas with a side of chicken. They also have a variety of soups on their menu. Their prices are very fair and for that reason I will definitely be back, and this time for some good ol’ oxtails! The establishment is very clean, and the staff is very polite. Only bad thing I can say is, why didn’t I come here sooner!!!! Guys keep up the great work. You’ve gained a repeat customer. I will be sure to let everyone I know about MacKariba Kitchen!“

“I ordered a LARGE oxtail w rice & peas w extra gravy. They gave me a lot of meat and gravy. The oxtail pieces were small but plentiful. I did ask for mac & cheese but they didn’t have it that day. The customer service was OK. Watch my video review on TIK TOK: Safiya Lin“

“This place has in this town for 28 years, there is a reason why they have been around so long. The owner is this wonderful sweet lady that, she is definitely Jamaican be a those Pattie’s hit different. The oxtails are succulent and falls off the bones, the plantain’s are sweet and crispy on the edges. If you’re looking for delicious Jamaica food go here, always call before you go because she starts cooking in the morning and at times the food isn’t ready until after 12pm but it’s very much worth the wait. ????The prices are very reasonable but those Pattie’s are to die for.“

“Wow their food is dangerously good and rich with flavor! I had to stop myself from finishing the entire bowl. They provide huge portions. I ordered via Ubereats and I live about 10 minutes away. It was delivered very quickly. The only thing I think they can improve on is ensuring that the food is very hot for delivery. The oxtails were perfectly hot but the rice was lukewarm. I still enjoyed it thoroughly and will be ordering from them more often.“

“Great food. Seasonings are always on point.
Good service. Could be better at time but satisfied.
Atmosphere is ok. Surrounding area is urban and can be a little on the riske' side. But for the most part the food is worth it.“

“Very pleasant experience 5 Stars! Today I ordered the Beef Stew with Rice & Peas and Mac & cheese, My husband had the J*** Chicken. Both meals were delicious, well-prepared with lots of flavor, & the portions are Huge! Compliments to the Owners & Cooks! & the very kind owners came outside to help us when our car was having issues, we appreciate their hospitality & kindness. K & D is well worth the visit, give them a try!“

“Excellent Food and an asset to the community of Roselle.“

“Last week was the first time in this place. But It is absolutely not the last time. We passed a splendid evening with the generous service, with the magnificent cooking and wine and with the friendly cost. We will definitely go back there again.“

I appreciate you guys reaching out for my Uber eats order letting me know that it was going to be awhile. The little things always count and go a long way.
