food incredible, really good portions, nice staff, classic feel for a Jamaican spot. I've been multiple times and I'm definitely going back. I typically get the jerk chicken. lots of food, definitely enough for more than one meal, or one person. I can't think of anywhere else that is this good with the jerk. read more

If you're looking for real, authentic Jamaican food that hits your soul, this is the spot. Every time I walk in, the smell alone lets you know you're about to eat GOOD. The jerk chicken is perfectly seasoned -- spicy, smoky, and packed with flavor without being overwhelming. The oxtail is fall-off-the-bone tender, rich, and cooked down just right. And the rice and peas? Always fresh, fluffy, and full of that authentic island taste. You can tell the food is made with love and tradition. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the staff treats you like family. It's not just a meal -- it's an experience. This place never disappoints. If you haven't tried it yet, you're missing out. read more

D&G Jamaican Restaurant - We ask for ox tails and got this. - Caribbean Near Me - Springfield, Massachusetts

I was craving Jamaican food so my significant other decided to take me to this location. When we pulled up to the parking lot, there were no cars parked in front. Springfield was just coming out of a bad snow storm so we weren't sure that they were open. It turns out that the place was open so we opened the door and walked straight in. To our left was a flat screen showing the Chiefs vs Bengals AFC Championship game. We watched for a couple minutes while we waited for an employee to help us. He ordered the small jerk chicken and I ordered the small oxtails over rice and beef patty. The oxtail was good, but I noticed that there was more bones than meat. The rice was delicious. The meat patty was very spicy and I've had better. To be honest, if there was more meat on the oxtails, I would've given this spot 5 stars. But for now, it deserves only 4 and that's because of the reasonable prices, the tasty rice, and jerk chicken. W read more

Never fails my jerk chicken is always day old only God know when it was cooked I got hooked a year ago live out of town trusting them get home to CT disappointed I'm dome read more

Went to this place after my road test. I just ordered a curry goat order which came with some rice. It was SOO delicious!! Didn't have too many bones which I liked because I have this weird fear of lots of bones in my food LOL. Also, it was SO filling that I was able to have 3 separate servings from it over 3 days. The flavor was bomb too. Personally, I would've liked if it was a littleeee less spicy--but that's my problem, not anyone else's haha! I wish this place was closer to me so I could go back more often! read more

D&G Jamaican Restaurant - curry goat on the right from this restaurant (food on left from different restaurant) - Caribbean Near Me - Springfield, Massachusetts

The portions are not equal to the prices... I got a small fried chicken with curry gravy... they chopped a chicken thigh into 4 pieces and put it over a little rice and said it was $11.00 .. here's the kicker if you just order a fried chicken thigh individually it's only $2.50... so they charged me $8.50 for rice... rip off read more

You might drive by D&G because it's hard to find, tucked away on a side street. Or you might drive by it because it's not exactly impressive looking when you do find it. But Oh Lord, please check them out because their food is absolutely terrific. Their menu is limited with just a handful of options available daily (curry, fried, jerk or stew chicken, plus oxtail and curry goat). Once a week specials like shrimp or jerk pork or cow's foot supplement the basic choices. I walked in for a take-out order on a Wednesday evening and chose a two-meat combination of jerk chicken and curry chicken with cabbage and rice and peas that ran $13. What a feast! I was very surprised at how good the curry chicken was. The chicken was moist, tender, very flavorful, and just plain delicious. The jerk chicken was fairly spicy but I thought the chicken was a little dryer than the curry chicken, definitely not as tender. The rice and peas were very good and the spicy gravy I asked for didn't disappoint. While I waited for my order, I walked around the restaurant and browsed the Jamaican food stuffs and beverages available for sale. I got a kick out of a "Heroes" poster I saw on the wall with photos of Nelson Mandela, Hailey Selassie, Bob Marley, Muhammad Ali, Barack Obama, Marcus Garvey, and Martin Luther King. The service was friendly, the vibe was sweet, and the food was excellent. Especially that Curry Chicken. read more

If you are not currently at D&G restaurant, stop reading, GPS directions to D&G, safely, but quickly, go there. Review is over, stop looking up restaurants, you want to rest here. Done. There is no need to read on. For those still reading, fine, let me break it down for you. What do you want when you eat? Since time began, to today, and on, it's more or less the same. Let's start with sustenance. Our bodies need fuel. D&G will fill you up with hearty quantities of delectably seasoned, life replenishing, bon appetit delights the likes of which your poor mouth is sorely lacking. Shame on you, show yourself some respect. Treat yourself to D&G. Now. Not later. Not tomorrow. Now. Your welcome. Holy smokes! You're still reading? OK, let's have at this. Sometimes when animals eat, they enjoy the company of others. Something, something, socializing I think. Guess what. While eating at D&G you will be in the phenomenal presence that is Ze Mac and his eclectic entourage, aka staff. That thing a business occasionally has. Fortunately for D&G, Mac has employees that care, and love to cater to us weary souls that come out of the dark for a moments reprieve from the stresses of every day existentialism. So take your negativity, put it in a zip lock bag, or a back pack, or your gall bladder if you still have one, or, wait, where do you put negativity? Shucks, I'll have to look that up later, maybe WebMD? Whatever, that's not important. Gather those things that bother you, place them aside, put your happy face on, and come mingle with down to this earth good people, and relax with fine cuisine mixed with humble hosts. Thank me, or rather D&G, after. You won't regret it. Now go, you should already be there. !Ay, caramba!, why you read still? Are you touched? Oy vey, I'll reiterate the aforementioned scribbles passed down since Cave Man Bob, or Cave Woman Bobet, or whatever you associate chicken scratches refined over some millenia by my superior ancestors who dissolved it into the letters before you, and attempt to describe it to the gifted group before me. You are making a critical mistake in life. You have not been to D&G Jamaican restaurant. It's OK, you are forgiven. But only if you rectify this grievous error promptly. Find wheels, or use legs, or crawl, or mount a camel, or.... you should get my jab, transport your meat bag and organic computer to this location. Splendors are waiting for you their. Play some good music on the way. I personally recommend Fear Nuttin Band. But that's not a requisite for your attendance at this happy place. A great attitude is suggested. You don't have to be in a good mood to revel here. This sanctuary will make you leave in one. So go my children. Eat. Ands be merry. Sincerely. Irish Sean. read more

So let me begin by saying this place doesn't look like much when you drive up, it doesn't get better when you walk in. It's literally a hole in the wall, but as many of us know these are the best!!!! Sometimes the service isn't even that great, but putting that aside, the food is amazing!!!! We've tried the oxtail which is always consistently delicious. My family loves the jerk pork which usually is available Thursday thru Saturday. It's spicy, some times it's super spicy and sometimes not as spicy. The curry goat is also very good. Sometimes they have curry shrimp and also good. Many come in for the classic Jamaican beef patty which everyone raves about, get it with the coco bread, you won't be disappointed. A friend of mine who is from Jamaica loves this place! Side note in the summer...take it to go, it's so hot it's uncomfortable. I don't think they even have AC. read more
