“This food is so incredible it makes me feel like if I hadn't been born in the Dominican Republic, I’d want to be Jamaican. The restaurant is spotless and has a great atmosphere. The food is truly amazing; it was my mother-in-law’s and my first time visiting yesterday, and we loved it so much we had to return today. Highly recommend—10/10! Special shoutout to the lady who is serving. You are so kind and great!“

“Such a pleasure to work with Aiyana on hosting my first networking event! Since I didn't have much experience, I asked Aiyana for recommendations on how much food (with variety) to feed all the guests. She was so patient and helpful throughout the process. The food was delicious! The guests love the food. Aiyana & Keith set up everything so nicely for me. They went above and beyond in providing exceptional service. Both of them are very diligent and kind people. I'm so glad I worked with them. They know how to treat people right and deliver the best service. I hope to do business with them again!“

“Tienen que visitar este gran y majestuoso restaurante lo bien que se come!!“

“I love ordering from here on weekends! They have a solid account with the eat24 app, which makes ordering really easy. My favorite dish is the pernil (roasted pork), but the res guisada (beef stew) is also delicious. The food is just as good as homemade. Oh, and that banana shake!!. Delicious.“

“Great authentic colombian food with good portions aswell. I just wish they would adjust their hours to 8am - 10pm instead of 6am to 8pm, because quite frankly don't think anyone is buying lunch at 6am. Other then that the food is great here“

“definitely the spot! I already know to call ahead for my jerk wings because I like them extra crispy, and they make them perfectly every single time. The wait is always worth it!

My go-to meal is the jerkD wings with collard greens and yams, plus extra jerk sauce on the side because the flavor is just THAT good. The wings are crispy, juicy, packed with flavor, and the jerk sauce takes everything to another level. The collard greens and yams taste homemade and perfectly seasoned.

And don’t skip dessert! The banana pudding is unbelievably creamy and the flavor is honestly 10/10. Every bite is perfection. jerkD never disappoints!“

“Tasty Food very good Variety and quality,Service is great and friendly Staff.I have been a Customer for 15 years by far the best Jamaican Restaurant in Essex County.I recommend very highly.“

“Not the older women but that lady at the counter needs to be fired. Her attitude , her appearance is sooo gross that as much as I like the food it makes me spend less money in this establishment. Asking for any more sauces, chicken , utensil can send her off the deep end and because she’s is dealing with your food you are forced to play nice. The first time I figured she was having a bad day or her husband left her for that bad attitude which I can understand but it’s every SINGLE time. Put the older women back at the register please before we lose it . Thank you“

“This is a small place but let me tell you the curry goat with rice and peas and cabbage With extra curry goat sauce YUMMYYYY.?. Also the J*** chicken with rice cabbage and curry goat sauce. OMG..I'VE been coming to this place for about a year and the food is always on point. 5 stars for me!“

“They hooked me up! Delicious food; good portions. I usually get oxtail from Jamaican restaurants. I'd say it's one of the top of the restaurants I've eaten from.

That said, oxtail is generally an expensive meat to buy and can be hard to cook right. So, it can be difficult to find places like this that give you a decent amount. And I've orderd from them a few times, so I can say their potion size is generally consistent from what I've seen.“

“If you really want some real authentic Jamaican food this is where you get itBest stew chicken around curry goat and curry chicken will keep you chewing on those bones not to mention the oxtail??? ????????Jerk chicken is a plus plus !!!!!You have to try it and see for yourself and i know you'll agree with me“

“food was amazing,most people are very impatient and don't want to wait to get their good food and end up leaving but if you just wait your turn and give the food to try and not judging by appearance you will have the best food ever . don't judge a book by its cover ?“

“Well done fresh food. The owner/chef is above average. I’ve been going there for several years, and I’ve always walked away, satisfied and pleased with that choice.“

“I like that they offer a $10 lunch special, including veg and plantain with a soda...but it's only chicken. But seriously...you not gonna oder just that! You gotta get a patty or festival or something else that catches your eye. I had the curry chicken (a little spice but good) and a beef patty, bc they were out of chicken. I ate almost everything...and I don't feel bad about it! Will visit again, but try to avoid the out of school kids.“

“Best Tripe Soup & Oxtails I ever had! I live pretty far away in Wayne, NJ, but it’s worth the trip for these two items alone! La Fe is not in an ideal location, but I feel pretty safe going there! ?“

“First time from here tonight.Searched empanadas and this popped up on Uber Eats. Searched the different kinds and was like sold. I’m ordering. Many to choose from but tried these tonight. Philly cheese steak ,lasagna,chicken & corn, spinach & cheese, beef,pepperoni & cheese Tell you was pretty tasty. Was little greasy on spinach & cheese but let sit for a few and was awesome. Have to say I was surprised of the flavors. Very tasty. Will definitely order again. Almost forgot. Saw little red dots on food. Assuming coded to know which ones are which. Interesting....“

“The Best Jerk Chicken !!!!!“
