I ordered jerk chicken and ribs with rice and peas and cabbage! Food was fresh and had just the right amount of spice. I always get my jerk and BBQ sauce mixed together on the side Definitely check them out if you want a taste of Jamaica! They even offer a Specials Menu for the Homeless!!! Talk about giving back to the community!

Parked on the property of a bondsman, which has four or five different things going on all packed onto one small property. The lady that runs the Jamaican Paradise Grill has a really bad attitude and is rude as can possibly be. She had one person in front of me with no one behind me. I stood there for almost 22 minutes without even being acknowledged or greeted in ANY way. Even after making eye contact with her on several different occasions, she still did not acknowledge my presence or tell me that she would be with me in a few minutes or anything like that. I just stood there, ignored for almost 30 minutes total. When I came up to order my food, she wasn’t willing to answer any questions. She just kept pointing to the menu and saying,’It’s all listed right there’, like I was annoying her by asking about the different menu items. I feel that you need to have much better customer service skills in order to have a successful business. Maybe I couldn’t read and if that would have been the case, which it is not, then it would have been big trouble for her, because she would be calling me out in public about not being able to read the menu. She treated me like I was invisible, and she could care less about my business and my money that I had planned to spend on her Jamaican Paradise food. I had heard through Word of Mouth that it was a decent place to get some island food. The lack of customer service made it to where I would not spend a penny there, under any circumstances. I attempted to eat there, but I refused to eat somewhere I am repeatedly and blatantly ignored. People should be treated as though they are welcome and greeted and treated in a friendly manner. It’s like I was an invisible force that was overlooked for over 20 minutes. Yet each and every other person getting in line or passing by was greeted with a smile and spoken to with welcome words. Enough to make me never want to go back or to ever try the food in the first place because clearly I was not a wanted customer and my money was no good there, neither was my presence. So I got back in my car and left, and I do not recommend this place unless you want to be treated rudely and invisible.

Based on other reviews, I wanted to give myself some time to make a fair assessment considering that it is a food truck. Keep in mind that I love food trucks, and have a friend who owns one.

What I’m bout to tell you , will save your life around mid evening and you want something full filling. Ma got the jerk and the barbecue to send your taste buds to the Caribbean. Spicy to those whose pallet is weak. Great choices, fresh food when you see smoke. Close at 11pm Wednesday-Sunday!! They do have another one on Tharpe but Pensacola with her collard greens, mmmmmmmm be so Good!!!!!! Pssssttt….. It’s worth it

It’s been a long time since I found a spot that gives you your money’s worth of food. The lady working gave me enough portion for two meals lol. And most importantly the food was immaculate! I ordered the jerk chicken with rice & peas and Mac&cheese.

I went here for the first time today, and the lady I spoke with was the sweetest, friendliest person you’ll ever meet. I wanted something with chicken, and she suggested the jerk chicken and in her words “it’s spicy, but it’s good”. While I was waiting for my food she even gave me a jerk chicken wing as a sample cause I never tried Jamaican food. It lived up to its name, and when I came home to open the hefty packed container, she gave me enough food to eat for 2-3 meals. I am telling my friends to come- letting them try this meal cause I can’t finish it all myself. Definitely worth checking out and worth every penny!

Seriously good smoked meats here. I had the jerk chicken. I don’t know if jerk chicken is cooked slow in a smoked fire, but if it isn’t, it should be! The dinner came with moist meat-falling-off-the-bone chicken slathered with jerk sauce and two sides. Both the side of beans and side of stewed cabbage were great. It was at least a half chicken. So good, it will make your toes curl.

Easy to find parking, no long wait time, Food is very good and seasoned, and decent sized portions.. but Very bad customer service. The woman working the window is very rude and unkind. She agitates easily if you have questions and her tone is very disrespectful. Having good food is only half of the goal, your customers should atleast feel welcomed and appreciated, I left feeling neither. I Will not be returning!
