“Absolutely one of the best jerk chicken lunch I’ve ever had in years. My mother ate their Oxtail stew dish and it was delicious too. Full flavoured food with excellent quality & portion. Friendly helpful staff are also welcoming. I bought the fried whiting fish fillets and some fried chicken wings to take home. Will definitely be back again to eat all the other dishes! Yummy ? proper jerk chicken with rice & beans that were moist not dry like other places we’ve tried in Manhattan.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to access street level entrance that will accommodate wheelchairs and rollators. No steps inside the restaurant.“

“Great service, price and food. And the music is awesome too.“

“Good authentic Jamaican food.“

“Food is excellent. I wish it was a little bigger. Lunch time the line is long they need more room. In the back the cook need more room as well. Excellent seafood soup ,whole fish dinner must try. All the soups are great. Good food . Eat there 2 or 3 times a week.“

“I ordered for the 1st time this evening and I really enjoyed it . I got the jerk pork which was seasoned very well, rice & peas was great , came with a side salad & plantains. I like how they accommodated me when the drink I ordered ran out (Cherry Lemonade) , however I enjoyed their JamRock Passion Fruit Lemonade though. I’ll definitely be ordering from here again real soon“

“Been coming to Melting Pot for years. The food is always solid and consistent. I haven’t tried anything from here that I don’t like. Jerk chicken and oxtail is always fresh and flavorful. They make a fresh pineapple ginger juice that’s amazing. Everyone I’ve brought here always enjoy the food.“

“I’ve been here twice and gotten the oxtails with, plantains and rice and beans. The flavor is out of this world and the oxtail is incredibly tender. They were also generous with their portion sizes. I really enjoyed the meal so much! They offer a lunch special, medium and large size for dishes.“

“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.“

“A nice little spot in Harlem for delicious Jamaican style patties. They taste even better between 2 pillow soft slices of Cocoa bread. Prices are fair and the ladies that work here are pleasant. Go have yourself a quick and delicious lunch and/or snack without breaking the bank!!!!!“

“I was in the area. I googled this place and I wanted to give it a try. I was very impressed with the rice and peas and shrimp which had some heat to it. Not overbearing and very enjoyable mixing it with the rice. The lady who served me was very nice and I appreciated my meal I will comeback again.“

“It's an amazing experience

“We went here for my birthday February 2020!!! The food, drinks and staff were AMAZING!!! I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant and can’t wait to go back! The oxtail, rice and peas, Mac and cheese...even the side salad and plaintains were PERFECTION. The customer service made us feel like we were at a resort restaurant in Jamaica, they made us feel like royalty.“

“I Ordered the Large Oxtails and J*** BBQ Chicken . Both dishes were good and definitely worth the detour we took to get there. Oxails wasn't tough, it was almostmeltingin my mouth. The server was very nice and was ok with answering my questions. So service 5, taste food 5 but the decor of the store is definitely a 2. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong. it's a good store and I would definitely eat here a million more times.“

“Great service, price and food. And the music is awesome too.“

“I’ve had Jamaican food before, but NOTHING is as delicious as their food! Curry chicken fell off the bone, perfect amount of curry. My husband was very pleased with the food too! This place is amazing!“

“First time . Got the jerk Rasta pasta and lawd the wait almost killed me but the FOOD was worth it?? can’t wait to go back and get more stuff off there menu a TRUE Caribbean truck BY FAR the best soul food I’ve had in the Bronx YET . DEFINITELY recommend ????“

“This place man I used to hit here every morning my partner and I got breakfast, unfortunately the last cook left and this new guy gave me parboiled rice, I hate that stuff, overall the food is great get rid of that rice and it's a definite “

“This is a great place to eat. Vendors are friendly and food is really good. The j*** chicken was my favorite (really hot, yes!) and the rice is soft, well cooked. They also have a variety of salad mix. The potato salad was really good. I'm not a fish eater but even the seafood smell good. Price is reasonable, I think it's 9$ a pound but less money if the weight is less. It's definitely worth it.

Vegetarian options: They have a variety of mixes for salad.“

“The food looks tasty, everytime I order from them the customer service is excellent. People are friendly. My only critique is that the size of the protein is too small. The chicken pieces are so tiny, as a hungry growing boy, I need more protein. One piece of chicken is done in 1 bite.Other than that, I recommend.“

“I've ordered several dishes from this place over the years... I have never been disappointed. Portions are decent, flavors are authentic, staff isn't rude & unwelcoming. I have OCD & I'm very picky about how I like my food plated... I know this can be annoying for some, but this place has never given me grief about it. We're paying for it, so oblige. All in all... I would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I absolutely LOVE the food. I got a plate with oxtails, rice & peas, plantains and he makes sure your plate is full. Everything tasted like it was seasoned perfectly, the gravy was surprisingly light and delicious. I’m 1000% going back.
I sincerely doubt the bad reviews are from him, the plates aren’t even the same. I met his Mom too and she was really sweet! Made the experience even better ?

FYI: I took the picture below after a couple bites“

“AMAZING EATS, GREAT & FRIENDLY SERVICE, AND NICE SIZE PORTIONS!“

“Jumeieka NYC delivers an authentic taste of Jamaica with every bite. Highly recommended! The roasted coconut corn is a favorite of mine!“

“Delicious TENDER oxtails.“

“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.“

“Food was Goooood, so far we've tried a few Caribbean restaurants in the area...this by far the best.., so glad you had 2 veggie choices which we had 1 with each meal..will return. Hopefully the owner will offer Menus that has FOOD ITEMS AND prices on it, being able to see WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR IS IMPORTANT. YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO ASK about this“

“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!“

“jerk chicken is well done and priced reasonably.“

“My family and I went to visit my daughter in NY at college then we decided to go and eat some real Jamaican food. We came across Jerk House on Instagram so we decided to go and take a look. The food was very tasty, staff was friendly, ambience was great. I got the curry goat with rice and peas which was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. I also tried the Mac and cheese, jerk pork and stew chicken which was another hit. I will definitely be going back with my family. Check this place out. You won't be disappointed! ??“

“Food here is really amazing. I ordered Jerk Salmon w/ Rice and Peas (Sweet Sauce gravy)and Plantain….
The food is really gooooood. Well prepared and packaged well. I ordered through Ubereats and received it quick.
I definitely recommend this restaurant. You won’t be disappointed. Th
