Jamaican Restaurants in Mt Vernon, NY

“fine dining at its best 👌“

“Great food, friendly environment. Reasonable pricing“

“Usually I don’t trust high ratings with only a few stars but I tried today while waiting on some work to get done and definitely left full and satisfied. Can definitely recommend their stew and fried chicken. Will be returning when next I’m in the area.“

“Very good food, drinks (descent) and atmosphere. The owners are friendly and will accommodate you as much as possible. I remember my very first time going there it was my 2018 2nd Masters Graduation celebration. The owner surprised me with a nice setting with tables and covered chairs, great lighting and the aviance was breathtaking. My guest, family and I thought it was quite impressive. The prices are reasonable as well.“

“Absolutely spectacular food, especially for the price. Kind, fast service. There's nowhere to sit and it may not be the place for a glamorous sit-in date, but the food is worth it! We had chicken, goat, rice and peas. All top notch! Plus it's open late on a Monday night, which is rare. Thank you!!“

“I visited this place twice and enjoyed the food on both occasions. On my first visit, I had the rice and peas and jerk chicken, which was solid. On my second visit, I tried the rice and peas and kingfish, which was also good. However, the price of the kingfish seemed a bit high for the portion size.

Macaroni looks appealing, but it wasn’t very good. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Dumplings are good.

I will be back when in the area. I want to try their breakfast menu.“

“First let me see that I am always purchasing food from Cravin Mt. Vernon, and I am always satisfied until yesterday. The reason for the 4 stars is because my food had mostly saltfish and no ackee. If I'm paying $18 for ackee and saltfish, I would like to see my meal to match the price, which it didn't. There need to be a balance.“

“Had JerkQ’zine cater the cocktail hour of my wedding this past weekend on 10.10.2020. I ordered many small bites including cocktail patties, assorted surprise dumpling bites, and fritters. I did not get to sample the bites as they were all thoroughly enjoyed by my guests! Contact information was also provided to many who asked. Thank you Jerk Q’zine for making my day successful! #jerkq’zine“

“Just Jerk is amazing. The food is packed with flavor, especially the jerk chicken which is perfectly seasoned and juicy. The sides are fresh and delicious, and the portions are generous. Great vibes, great service, and authentic Caribbean taste every time. Definitely a favorite. 🔥“

“The curry chicken and macaroni and cheese was the best I ever bought from a Jamaican restaurant. The food tastes so fresh. I didn't get kanisha telephone number but I will be back. Too bad I live in the Bronx. She gave excellent customer service“

“simply, just for the fact that you can order the famous Di Fara pizza from Brooklyn at this location, makes this certainly one of the best hidden gems in the neighborhood.
They also offer lots of different dishes from several different restaurants, making this a very interesting place to go for a meal as different. People can order different dishes from different restaurants.“

“Jamaican restaurant, food is usually salty but I go once in a while as they have a wider variety of dishes. It's good just salty for me. The service though needs help and there's always some drama.
This is a grab n go, not dine-in“

“Its rare to go to a jamaican restaurant and they have a full comprehensive menu with all items available 7 days a week. In most places they only serve certain items on certain days. Everything is available everyday here. And the taste is top notch. From now on, I will come here everytime I'm in NYC.“

“We drove from Brooklyn to try their curry goat with white rice and coleslaw. Amazing. The curry goat was tender and cut into manageable pieces. It was well seasoned, blending curry with all spice. What is in that coleslaw? It has a light delicate vinegar flavor with the right amount of crunch. Beautiful mix of flavors.“
