Jamaican Restaurants near White Plains, NY

“I absolutely love going to this Jamaican spot for lunch, the atmosphere is fresh the staff are friendly , they always have good music playing, some days they’ll even play gospel music which I find to be very soothing . My favorite thing to order is their chicken soup which they will serve throughout the week and on Fridays they’ll bring out the fish soup which is AMAZING!!! Both soups are just bursting with flavor definitely 10/10 will always recommend!!!“

This is one of those places I look forward to going to . Not because there is no other choice , but because The deliciousness stays on my mind . If you soo happen to find yourself here.

“Very nice experience with 6 of us at Big Daddy's. The Caesar salad and dressing were delicious. We all had different mains, and everyone enjoyed their food. They included catfish, burger, ribs, and tacos, and French fries were really good. Desserts were also yummy. The service was friendly and attentive.“

“Came in the girl up front greeted us . Asked what we wanted . It is very different from any other Jamaican food place I been at . Very friendly . I ordered oxtail and the small size . They put so much of it with rice and peas and plantain . Very worth it .“

“We recently had them cater food for a large house party and Cravin Jamaican was a hit! We've ordered from here many times and love the food but we were impressed with how much everyone at the party were huge fans. My husband was actually not even able to get any jerk chicken because people devoured it so quickly! I'm very glad that we catered from Cravin. We also deeply appreciated that the owner came personally to drop off the food and came early at that. It was one less thing to worry about. Thanks again!“

“Sweet spice, is just like the name, food sweet, authentic, and the management and staff is very professional, and friendly“

“I get so excited every time we get a chance to visit Oracabessa. This is my favorite go to spot for delicious, authentic, home style Jamaican food, that always hits the spot. Regardless the time of day, Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, they gotcha! The food tastes like someone has poured love and magic into every bite and the portion sizes are Nice! While I have my faves, I totally recommend you try everything and see for yourself.

Did I mention they always host fish fry’s? You’re so lucky to have found them, enjoy!“

“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.“

“The taste of the breakfast: porridge, ackee n saltfish is superb: 5 stars. The portions are amazing. The service is okay, but they run out of breakfast quickly. The atmosphere doesn't look very inviting. It says: come in, get your food and get out. The place is dim and could use a face lift. I notice a lot of caribbean restaurants around here are kinda dim.Recommend visiting on the early side if you want don't want to leave empty handed.“

“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“

“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.“

“The food was delicious. I used to go all the time (2021) and get fried chicken, but they didn't have it. So I got curry chicken and... IT TASTED LIKE CRACK (super delicious). There was only 1 worker and she was nice (my dad knows people there) and it's was kinda dark but the atmosphere was okay overall.“

“The best food of any kind . The owners, and staff are the greatest. Safe, Clean well respected restaurant in Mt.vernon, NY. I E.A.T.S., almost everyday. Lol.. A vast variety of delicious foods and desserts too. So my recommendation.. is too E.A.T.S... One love✊?“

“When I say these folks are genuinely kind-hearted, I mean it—it's a rare find to encounter a Caribbean restaurant where the staff radiates happiness instead of serving up an attitude. The prices here are quite reasonable, making it easy on the wallet. The portions are generous and satisfying, truly making every bite worthwhile. Everything is freshly prepared right before your eyes; I visited late at night and was pleasantly surprised to see the food still bursting with flavor and freshness. I wholeheartedly recommend this charming little shop; it's an intimate space that feels welcoming. All you have to do is stop by and experience it for yourself—trust me, it’s absolutely worth it!“

“I can still and will always remember November 13th. This was one of the most important day of my life my wedding day. I went to the restaurant to speak with Mr. McKnight of this my special day about 2 weeks f before the due date, this is so because the first time I ate his meal I felt as I was floating on dry land the food was off the chain. From then I told him that whenever I am getting married he have to do the catering for me. He was excited and happy for me. All he said was write what I wanted on the menu and he would do the rest. Wow wow wow what can I say the food was one in a million. The guests enjoy ever bit of what was provided and wanted to know more about his business. Guess what I later found out that I even got dishes that was not on my menu. Mr. McKnight continue doing what you doing. All the best in you endeavors.“

“Friendly service, VERY reasonable prices, almost cheap if I’m being honest. The jerk chicken was good, could’ve had more spice for my liking, but it was good. The rice and peas delicious, and the curry chicken gravy I got over my rice was amazing I think I might try the curry chicken next time. I will definitely go back again.“

“I’ve worked near, passed by, and wanted to try the food here for years. It was also rumored that a former coworker was part owner of this restaurant/bar. I finally got a chance to stop by today and experience Jamaican food at its best. I ordered a pound of jerk chicken and a large curry chicken dinner to take home to the family. It took 90 minutes to get home and warm up the dinner and we were not disappointed. Authentic and flavorful is all I have to say. The staff was friendly and I hope they remember to tell Mike I said hello.“

“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.“

“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“

“absolutely delicious food curtious staff all around great eats"!“

“Nicely decorated, and food was delicious!“

“Food great and always very reasonably priced compared to other establishments. Compliments to the chef and staff for always working diligently to provide excellent service to sometimes difficult patrons. The porridge served breakfast time alone is enough to warm the soul“
