The Jerkin Truck hosted our Safety Event and the delivery was great! Everyone loved the authentic Jamaican jerk chicken, shrimp and salmon! Thanks Well done!

If I can give ZERO stars I would. They Overcharge and it’s not right! I understand food prices are high but $25 for an oxtail platter should not come with THREE LITTLE PIECES OF OXTAIL, that taste like RUBBER!!!! On top of that rice was bland and taste stale-it was not good at all!!!!! If you want to be overcharged for subpar food- this is the place. Doesn’t taste authentic. I’ll never order here again- you shouldn’t either.

I booked Jerkin Chicken for my hubby’s 52nd birthday party 3 years ago and it was the best thing I ever did! If you want the real Jamaican vibe and delicious Jamaican food this is it❗I frequent there take out restaurant in Jersey City and they do the outdoor food fest every Saturday in the summer

I was considering ordering from here but looking at the review replies from the owner I definitely won’t. Responding to unhappy customers in this manner is extremely unprofessional and off putting. It doesn’t take much to apologize, say you can work on correcting the issue, and possibly offer something in return to please unsatisfied customers. Do better!!

Live down the street. Tried it twice (second time was to be sure I didn’t like it) Everyone that comes to visit and sees it wants to try it but not worth it, and customer service is 0/5

Ordered through Uber Eats and right away I got a charge for $200 from Columbus Ohio of a fraudulent grocery charge. Not a safe exchange…..Now I have to wait 5-7 business days to receive a new credit card

“Oh my god!” Is the only thing that will come out of you mouth after that delicious food meets your taste buds. The kindness of the staff is warmth to your heart, and the homey vibe the place has will FOR SURE have you coming back.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE! CHARGE YOU 20 BUCKS FOR A PROTEIN AND THEY GIVE YOU 4 TINY PIECES I ASKED FOR MORE VEGGIES NO RICE FOUND PIECES OF HAIR THROUGHOUT THE BOX. I PROCEEDED TO CALL AND COMPLAIN IT SOUNDED LIKE A TEENAGE GIRL SHE WAS SO RUDE YELLING AT ME AND STATING I ASKED FOR CABBAGE. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY HERE. FOOD ALSO SHOWED UP LUKEWARM. TAKE YOUR MONEY TO ISLAND VIBES. ATLEAST YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR THERE .
