Back in the day you had several options in Buffalo for great Jamaica food. Now theirs only one. I had the oxtails and the meat was the perfect and the rice omg was everything. I’m already thinking about the next time. Service was friendly and the building is super clean.Update..It’s so good I had to come back and get more. The meat is so tender it falls off the bone. The rice is fire. So sick of regular white plain rice. Mac and cheese taste like your grandmother made it. Thanks for the experience

I ordered takeout from Genesis Rising, a Jamaica restaurant that offers a variety of tasty and authentic dishes. The service was quick and efficient, and the food was well-packed and fresh. I enjoyed the curry chicken, which was full of flavor, and the jerk chicken, which was spicy and succulent. The mac and cheese were creamy and cheesy, and the plantains were soft and caramelized. The veggies were crisp and colorful, and the fish was flaky and moist. The portions were large and filling. I also liked the ginger beer, which was fizzy and refreshing. I felt like I had a trip to Jamaica without leaving my home. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy Jamaican food at its best. Genesis Rising is a great option for takeout.

Very friendly and delightful owners. I’m not sure what I expected to taste, but the food went above and beyond anything I could have expected. All of the flavors were in perfect harmony—spice, flavor, texture, etc. I live about an hour and half away and will definitely drive the distance just to eat here again. Highly recommend. We had the curried goat and the wings.
