Island Jerk is a hidden gem that serves up amazing flavors. Despite its unassuming trailer location, the food is outstanding. The ox tail and jerk chicken dishes are particularly flavorful and delicious, with the rice and beans being a standout. The jerk plate is a popular choice, with the chicken cooked to perfection and the cabbage being a highlight. The owner is a genuinely nice person, and the food always tastes fresh and well seasoned. The rice is flavorful, and the jerk chicken is spicy but not overpowering. The shop owner is also fun and friendly, making each visit enjoyable. With friendly service and a great atmosphere, Island Jerk is a must-visit spot for foodies.
