Meat was very savory and rich in bbq and the rice was nicely seasoned. Very nice staff. Go support small businesses like these!

I love Zion's Cuisine. It is a neighborhood gem and I will miss it if/ when I move out. I usually get brown stew chicken, beef stew, or pepper steak. The food is affordable, delicious, and healthy, and a large platter is good for 2-3 big meals (I do use rice from home to stretch it). Zion's is my go-to when I don't have the time or energy to make something decent for myself.No restaurant review is complete without a criticism, so: I wish they made it clear what is available each day. This goes for all Jamaican spots, but it seems like every day there is something they don't have. Knowing what's available with an updated list (instead of an interrogation at the order counter) would also give me the opportunity to try dishes I haven't before, such as their soups and breakfast items.Also, although their cabbage is the best Jamaican cabbage I've ever had, when I get cabbage and greens as sides I wish they would put my greens in the little slot for sides instead of always the cabbage. I end up with enough cabbage for two meals but only one meal worth of greens. Maybe greens are more expensive for them.. I will ask to pay extra for this next time and see what they say.Overall, Zion's is my favorite restaurant in the area and I am already looking forward to the next time I fall woefully behind on my food prep.Dietary restrictions: Easy to eat gluten- and dairy-free

I got the curry goat and curry chicken. Both were delicious. Would like more sauce when you ask for extra gravy.

The food here is absolutely amazing. I never thought I would like the goat, but wow. They make it great. The chicken and rice and Mac and cheese are also amazing. This has quickly become a go to for my boyfriend and I.
I know I bought food for it not to go to waste but this is garbage. Rice was hard chicken was dry. Everything tasted

It’s very rare that I find a Jamaican restaurant that hits the nail on the head when it comes to quality, taste and pricing. I ordered a large oxtail with rice and peas, mac and cheese and candied yams. What I appreciated the most is that the food wasn’t overwhelmingly seasoned ( like too sweet or too salty ) to the point where I couldn’t actually enjoy the food. It was absolutely delicious! Portions are very generous, oxtail was cooked perfectly where they fell off the bone. Service was kind and warm. Will definitely be back again!

I love this place I really do but when you are sick do not come to work to cook or serve food you will pass your germs into the food also onto the customers and that's not a good look...

Having lived in the Caribbean for years I came across this spot while picking up some windshield wiper fluid next door. The smell wafting from its doors was too tempting to pass up.Close your eyes and take a bite of the curry chicken with some rice and peas and it’ll take you right to Jamaica.Also highly recommend the j*** bbq chicken and yellow rice too!The patty’s are amazing. The crust is really flaky with a filling that keeps you going back for another bite until you’re sad you didn’t buy yourself a 2nd ?Def go and try this place, huge portions , awesome food, really nice employees fair prices.❤️
