Island Flavor - Jamaican Restaurant

Had the Jerk Chicken and the Beef Patties and both were incredible. The servings were fair and the price for two people to eat until they were full was incredibly reasonable. Hidden gem in Bennington.

Amazing Jamaican food as we were passing through town! Ordered a large serving Jerk Chicken to share and it was super generous, with some nice heat and delicious sauce! Also got some cod fritters which were crunchy and savory, and all of the bottled drinks we got were super refreshing. Overall great value, flavor, and a pleasant spot to feast.

Friendly staff, great flavor in the dishes and huge portions. A small is plenty for me . Curry chicken was awesome

Stopped in for dinner tonight. I died and went to Jamaica!!! The owner and her mother cook and serve authentic Jamaican food. We had these stewed chicken (because they sold out of the jerk chicken) and the meat literally fell off the bone. The flavors popped in your mouth! It was one of the yummy-ist things I’ve ever eaten! You need to try their delicious food. We will be back for the jerk. And for the homemade soup on Friday’s!

Fantastic food. Like really really good curry. I was shocked at how good it was. Was not expecting really good Jamaican food in the middle of Vermont. Definitely try this place.

I went for lunch today and my Curry Goat was wonderful! My taste buds danced for joy indeed. My patties were excellent, too. Looking forward to trying the Jerked Chicken next time. Thank you for a fabulous and spicy meal on a chilly day!

One of the absolute best restaurants in southern Vermont. Authentic Jamaican cuisine in a very clean and friendly environment. Live DJ, Domino games and cool decor.

The esco fish dinner is excellent!

11/10 food and atmosphere!! We traveled around VT and NH for our anniversary and ended up in Bennington for a couple days. I wanted to save the best for last (best being based on reviews and personal food likes), and it truly is THE BEST. My favorite restaurant we visited throughout the whole trip, and wish we had Island Flavor back home in Burlington, VT.

Tastiest Jamaican food I've found outside Boston. Curried chicken was very good and the rice and beans were cooked perfectly.
