The food here is the WORST!!! It flavorless and not at all what authentic Jamaican food tastes like. Ordered coco bread & 3 plates: jerk chicken, curry goat, & oxtail. All with rice & peas, plantains & cabbage. The jerk chicken tasted like raw chicken dipped in cloying, soy sauce, and had a nauseating odor to match. The curry goat was unforgivable. Way too much Whole Foods curry. Very dry. Not enough spices. I think I would prefer to experience the cruciatus curse than have another bite. I can't review the oxtail because I never got that. Instead I got a weird pasta thing. Given the experience with the other dishes, it's probably headed straight to the trash. Also can't review the coco bread because I didn't receive them either. Stay away. Your taste buds will tank me.

Ox tail with rice and beans was on point, grabbed a beef patty as well never had one before highly recommend! Pastry crust of patty was super moist unlike some other places where they sit out to long.

The food was tasty and the staff was very friendly. I ordered coffee and was given coffee with a lot of milk and sugar, which I didn't order. I asked for the black coffee I ordered and was given instant coffee.The atmosphere was very loud music videos, which didn't cover the loud chirping from the smoke detectors with weak batteries.Overall, it was an okay experience, but not one I would recommend.

Terrrrrrrible food! Everything! Mac n cheese was like a clump of play doh with just a layer of cheese only on the bottom and none on the rest. Hard peas in the mac salad. Dry chicken. Not sure what they use for the heat for the jerk chicken, but it was definitely not jerk. Whatever it was was on all the food-it all tasted the same-even the cabbage, etc, and way too hot. That was some artificial heat they just poured on everything.

I was surprised how nice the service was. It was so quick and efficient you'll want to go back, for that fact alone. . . .

Very bad experience. Ordered Rasta pasta(pictured) and stewed chicken with rice and peas(not pictured). Rasta pasta had boiled, unseasoned chicken with 2 pieces of pepper and watery Alfredo sauce. Didn’t taste like anything. The stewed chicken was flavorless and had more bones than meat. Rice and peas was flavorless. Customer service was horrible, the staff acted like we were doing them a disservice by visiting their establishment. Spent $40 on two meals and an order of plantains that were also flavorless. Not a good experience at all, would not recommend.

I ordered through Doordash. Food was hot! Everything seasoned just right! This is a large plate. I also ordered the $10 extra oxtail. (Which was worth it). I will order from here again.

Stopped in for a quick lunch on a weekend. Service was very friendly. The food was wonderful - we ordered the jerk chicken and oxtail. The jerk spice was well done with a good amount of heat. The flavors were seeped all the way through the meat. The oxtail was also delicious!

Moved from Jacksonville, FL a couple of years ago and would eat Jamaican food weekly so I was looking forward to Jamaica Cuse. 2 visits over the past 6 months. The first time the rice and peas were very flavorful while the jerk chicken was lacking in flavor and spices. 2nd time (today)- the rice and peas were very bland. The Empanadas are very good. Both times I have went I did not feel very welcomed. I will go again because it is convenient and the Empanadas were good. A hello or smile goes a long way. Looking forward to trying the chicken soup.
