Good food
Good food. Jerk chicken was delicious 😋... Call early for them oxtails!
While visiting Ohio, we purchased food from Jamaican Jerk Center..We had an oxtail meal, brown stew chicken and jerk chicken. The food was hot, flavorful and some of the best Jamaican food we had in a while.The owner was friendly and personable. If you need to satisfy your tastebuds, give them a try.
These guys didn’t take long to give me service. They took my order with ease and gave me hot food. I spent around $75 to feed 4 and we enjoyed our food very much. They have vegan options and colas there too. Tender meat, well seasoned food, veggies and rice. There wasn’t anything hard to chew, it wasn’t salty and wasn’t too spicy. When I have to cater, I’ll definitely use them. Please appeared to be clean but I didn’t see the bathroom. I can’t find anything to complain about. They put all essentials in the bag and there wasn’t juice spilled inside of my bags either. He made callaloo just for me so I waited a few extra minutes for that. I’m big at complaining because I’m a cook as well but I can’t find anything to complain about here. They had nice music playing, very Caribbean feel inside. I happen to be a Jamaican too so of course I’m going to speak highly of them. Follow me on TikTok @TheNikkiRevenue if you see this comment. Spend at least $75 when you go there so I can demand a referral fee of free food lol … just kidding. Enjoy!!!!
Very courteous Men , The food was worth the Wait I had the Red Snapper … I will be back.

I placed an order over the phone but still had to wait in line and wait for the young man to put my order together once I got to the counter. By far some delicious authentic Jamaican food. I have eaten at most all of the Jamaican restaurants from Canton to Cleveland and this one is a go to for sure. Jerk BBQ chicken is amazing. Portions are pleasing. Flavor is delicious. I'll be back for the fresh made snapper very soon. You won't be disappointed with this place worth every penny.

This place is amazing! When you walk in and smell the smokey goodness you know it is going to be awesome. My wife and I each got a beef patty, the crust was so flakey and good and the filling was very flavorful. I ordered jerk chicken and she had brownstew chicken. They were both out of this world. The jerk chicken had a great blend of smokiness and fruitiness from the peppers. I highly recommend you give this place try.

Someone answered the phone and told me to hold on…. Never muted the call I can hear them talking in the background and after about 10 - 12 mins I finally hung up without ever getting to place an order …. You guys need to do better.
