Good food! I use to ask for white meat when I started ordering here a few years ago but they didn’t offer it that way. Once I learned that I didn’t ask anymore. This time that I visited my curry chicken was all white meat and I didn’t request it. I’ve been waiting for this!!!

The best place ever for authentic Jamaican cuisine! The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. What more can you ask for I ordered the oxtail dinner with rice and peas steamed cabbage. This is one of the first places that served dumplings in their gravy so I had to ask for extra, and it was amazing

This establishment is very much your typical Jamaican restaurant, the workers are most likely family, friendly staff, food was good. The roti some know it as dahl pouri, split peas is inside

Today 12/15/2021 was my first dining experience at The Jerk Center. I ordered a Beef Patty for an appetizer, the Curry Chicken Lunch with Rice & Peas and Cabbage. A Squeez’R Caribbean Rhythms Mango Carrot Drink, that was out of this world, I ordered a second drink! All food items were absolutely phenomenal, Marvin took the order, was very enthusiastic in explaining all the details of the food items and drink. It was a pleasure being served by Marvin. I am looking forward to my next visit! Highly Recommend!!!

Yesterday I tried this place for the 1st time. I had curry goat with rice/beans and cabbage. It was delicious! I also had the rum cake and it’s authentic. Great, real deal Jaimaican restaurant.

My wife and I were looking for something different. When we found this one on Google Maps, we figured it was worth a try. My oh my was it definitely worth it. We live two counties away and will make the trip down here at least a few times a year. We used to have a Jamaican place not far from our home but it wasn’t anywhere near as good as this place. My wife got the goat curry and I went for the jerk chicken. We had jerk wings as an app. We got lunch-sized portions for reference with the pictures. Everything was excellent. They’ve also got oxtail and I’m definitely going to have to try that next time.

Picked this location on a whim since I was in the mood for Jamaican/Caribbean food. I wasn’t disappointed- food was prepared promptly and served fresh. Taste and portion size was good for the price. I’ll return in the future if I’m in the area.

We had dinner goat curry and shrimp fry w/cabbage, rice, coleslaw and a mac&chz. Brown cake for dessert. Everything was excellent quality and very tasty, despite being a little salty for me. I’m very sensitive to salt. Tried their scotch bonnet pepper hot sauce to give everything a little extra flavor. I’ll have to go back to check how consistent it is, but it is an experience I’m looking forward to. Came to around $50 for two people.

A very odd experience over all. I had had this once with a friend takw out and wanted to dine in with my husband. No greeting upon entrance, stood at the door for a few minutes before we figured it was seat yourself service. After about 10 minutes a young lady came with emnjes and took our drink order. She came back with bottleed water an silverware rolled in a paper towel. We ordered a little unsure of what we were ordering but she offered no suggestions or help with the menu.we both got the jerk chicken. It had good flavor, especially the yellow sauce the drizzle over top, but, it is very, very dry. The rice has a a bit of an odd flavor. Their Mac and cheese was very good. The whole experience was a little awkward, I might try take out one more time, but, definitely would not done in again as it was just a very Unwelcoming experience.
