About Pimenta

Pimenta is a cozy restaurant with a Caribbean vibe, offering delicious Jamaican food that feels like home. The savory flavors and spices transport diners back to the Caribbean with every bite. Highly recommended dishes include the beef patty with coco bread, Rasta pasta with shrimp, jerk shrimp, oxtail, curry goat, and fish, all of which are well-prepared and flavorful. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the friendly staff ensures everyone feels included and comfortable. Pimenta is wheelchair accessible and kid-friendly, catering to a variety of customers. The interior has a nice and homey feel with a selection of tasty drinks to enjoy. The brown stew chicken, rice and peas, and cabbage are freshly made and mouthwatering. The music enhances the warm ambiance, although it may be a bit loud for some. Recently, service has been outstanding, with staff providing a warm welcome and authentic Jamaican flavors. The calm, Caribbean-inspired ambiance makes the experience feel like a mini island escape. For those trying Jamaican food for the first time, dishes like jerk chicken with mac and cheese and rice and peas are highly recommended. Remember that a 20% gratuity is added to the bill. Pimenta is a casual, neighborhood spot rather than a fancy dining experience. Guests can scan the QR code at their table for the menu or ask for a paper one. With new ownership, the flavors have been elevated, making Pimenta a great choice for authentic Jamaican cuisine in a cozy, friendly atmosphere.
