I discovered Authentic Jerk at Center Ithaca several months ago and have been returning every week since my first meal. As someone who has traveled to Jamaica for my vacations almost every year since 2000, I can tell you with all sincerity that Authentic Jerk’s food is just as tasty and high quality as the food served in the best restaurants in Jamaica. It’s clear that they don’t skip any steps in their preparation, as the spices and seasonings are authentic, and all the dishes are extremely well prepared. Since chicken is the only meat I consume, I normally order the curry chicken or stew chicken, and it’s always very tender and ready to fall off the bone served with delicious gravy. The rice and peas are well seasoned, and the collard greens and cabbage are steamed nicely with subtle Jamaican spices. The fried plantain, mac n cheese and festival (fried dough) are always good as well. Manners and respect to Authentic Jerk!

Stumbled across this gem today. We tried nearly everything they had available and every single dish was perfection. Flavorful, tender, generous portions. Easily the best meal we’ve had in Ithaca.
