Soul Food Restaurants in Jamaica, NY

“Food tastes great But it is Black owned. Which means expect them to open whenever they feel like. This is my 3rd time calling of visiting the store at Noon time and they are never open. They also don’t like picking up the phone. But the food is really good tho.“

“I've been coming here for over 20 years. This place is awesome. The portion sizes are big and the prices are great. The flavor and love that is put into this food is so worth it!

Parking: Find a parking spot near by easily.“

“The Rib Shack in Jamaica, NY is a very popular, decades young landmark restaurant in this residential Queens NY neighborhood. Generations have grown up eating their delicious soul food. The food is prepared fresh daily and ready for take-out. The variety of tasty meats, vegetarian, seafood dishes and deserts are just what the doctor ordered. The staff are patient and friendly. Enjoy!“

“This is the Only place I come to get my fried chicken & or my fried shrimp!! It’s ALWAYS fresh & the people who work there always make sure of it . They’re very kind. I love the fact that the food isn’t salty . Regardless of the wait time via drive-thru, I don’t mind waiting at all lol, because I know exactly the cause & what I’m getting! It’s good & it will always be good ! I’m happy I found this place! 10/10 I Recommend.“

“This is a compliant but I gave all 5 stars cause I love this place from young. Bought 6 spicy beef & 2 jerk chicken Pattie’s this morning (June 5th 2025). In this photo you see plastic. I bit this piece of plastic out of my patty, I thought it might’ve been some hard lettuce but yea it’s plastic.“

“Place is very clean, the food does taste good, you only have to watch out for the amount you take it goes by weight. Overall, I like the food here, its buffet style most things are weighted by the pound.“

“Outstanding food and value! Great service we are hooked!“
