This is not the same Peppas as th iconic one in Brooklyn. Food is trash. I got the jerk chicken. I took one bite and I knew that it wasn’t the same Peppas I was thinking. I would t mind them having the same if the food was at least the same standard. Just gross. Never again
Food was not worth the price. Mostly bones and way too much rice.
Curry goat. Gotta try $10 lunch specials 12-4: stew chicken, jerk chicken, curry chicken
Me a white boy standing in line while they take others from behind me. Not saying racist but connect the dots. Buyer beware. Place was dirty as well. Will not go back to this nasty location. And they add extra charge I guess cause they are in Manhattan
The food like jerk chicken ox tail are ok not bad the service is really bad place is not organized takes to long to serve .you can not dine in this place to small .order on line then pick up.
Order not available; store doesn’t have order on their end from their choice of website to receive orders. Waited 20 mins just to be acknowledged by cashier! Refund needed from “Sauce”. Completely disorganized. Time and money wasted. One man was nice and kind trying to do 2 jobs and was going to call the owner who happened to walk in to try and fix it. Waited 40 mins and didn't even get food. Owner was able to get refund to me after calling the company.
Good portions. Decent price. Food is pretty good.
A huge thank you to Pepa’s Jerk 2nd Ave for the amazing jerk chicken and Peppa Pasta — the food was a big hit and absolutely delicious!
Also, special thanks to Debbie and the entire staff who worked on 4/26/25 to complete my catering order.
I truly appreciate all the effort and care you put into making everything perfect.
You helped make our day even more special, and I’m so grateful!

Oxtail with rice and peas is unparalleled
There's better locations
Worst customer service. Worst tasting Jamaican food in the city. I wound not recommend.
Love the the customer service the foid was delicios. Would definately recommend.
The only jerk chicken spot I feel confident in in Manhattan is Simply Natural Grill, but that dude only comes out in the Spring/Summer as he brings his grill out on the street and does God's work.
I did my best to crowdsource a good jerk chicken rec from my Instagram story, and the overwhelming favorite was Peppa’s Jerk Chicken.
We took the bus up to 28th street, and arrived at what felt like the promised land for a jerk chicken plate: Bob Marley on a Jamaican flag, tin wall panels spray painted with scenery of the homeland, employees slightly rude with thick Jamaican accents, etc.
We both got jerk chicken plates with rice & peas and plantains. I was beyond hopeful to have a new year round jerk chicken spot. However, my hopes were stabbed in the heart when I took one bite of the plantains. These were legitimately the worst plantains I’ve ever had. I couldn’t even believe they served us these. The plastic fork couldn’t even penetrate the surface of the fried banana, they must have been sitting for DAYS. I wish they just told us they were out of plantains.
The jerk chicken and rice & peas were actually really good, but plantain-gate just left a bad taste in my mouth.
