two cars parked in front of a restaurant
Jedsada Y.

I stumbled upon Island Flavaz on my way back from East Meadow. It's been a while since I had Jamaican food. The service was very friendly. I got an order of jerk chicken with sweet sauce with rice and oxtail soup broth and vegetables for $11. The order of Jerk chicken was tasty, plentiful and somewhat spicy. I'd definitely stopping by again. Too bad they were out of jerk pork.

The food is good service is cool and ambiance is cool. I would recommend this spot if you not in the mood to cook.

Jerk pork scraps

Portions small jerk chicken not even a full 1/4 portion. pork came cold and over 75% was gristle and bone.

Oxtails

This place has delicious finger licking good food. Taste is authentic and service is with a smile. Will definitely return AGAIN! The meat was tender and juicy and the rice and peas was out of this world !!!

I came here for lunch on Juneteenth 2026 and ordered the Jerk Pork à la carte from Sharday. It was…read moremade to order and prepared in 15 minutes. It came out juicy, tender and flavorful, even more so when I added the extra jerk sauce that came on the side. Chef Cani told me that he used the back leg of the pork. Too bad Jerk On The Water does not sell any alcohol. I would have paired the pork with an ice cold bottle of Red Stripe Beer. This is a take out place with some outdoor seating overlooking the water. There are four tables outside, each of which has three chairs. CAVEAT EMPTOR: CASH ONLY AT THE WINDOW OR PAY BY CARD AT THE KIOSK!!! However, the kiosk's menu was hard to read due to the sunlight.

My mom and dad raved about their shrimp rasta pasta & jerk wings, so I had to give it a try. Though the food wasn't bad with a tasty pasta & wings, the wait time was too long for me...I called ahead of time and still had to wait 30 minutes or so to get my food. I felt like I was in a restaurant with the time it took . Still despite that issue, I enjoyed my pasta. The wings were cool too, but really large for my liking (I knoooow, it sounds crazy right, like who complains about more chicken on the bone? Lol ‍.)

Ordered oxtail and red peas soup…read more The flavor of the oxtail was great but the meat was tough and chewy. A few peaces were tender but not evenly cooked. The rice and pease was good and soft. I def wished they put more veggies since I ordered half rice / half veggies. As you can tell from the pic - this was NOT half veggies The red peas soup was just okay - the flavor was a little off. This place offers the lowest price for oxtail around at $15. Taking that into consideration, I'm still not entirely sure whether or not I'd give this place another try - given there are def better options that are worth the $5 or $6 price difference

Naaaaaah man, they're not getting me again. The place always looks a little run down but today when…read moreI went there, the glass door is all cracked up like someone must have thrown something at it. The only food inside the display looked to be escovitch chicken tenders or some sort of escovitch tilapia..idk. I drove there specifically for beef patties, sign in patty display says "NO PATTIES". So I said ok, well let me get soup. I ordered a small chicken soup. Soup looked good. I kid you not, the woman came around the corner with a wooden toothpick picking her teeth to give me the container of soup. I was literally the only customer in there, was she going to get gingivitis in the 1 minute she could have waited for me to at least leave the restaurant without having seen it. Now how am I to comfortably eat this soup?...How? How I ask you?!?! The thing is with food at restaurants, you know in the back of your head some places don't do things to the highest standards but blatantly doing it in front of you like it's nothing is disgusting. I can only imagine what's done in the back.

Saffron pasta with salmon..ohms, it was a "Rasta pasta spin" Oh waitress was such a delight, fun good energy & attentive. We celebrated a birthday & tried Hookah(fun). The Hookah gentleman was knowledgeable and helpful, also diligently kept our "tower/bong" going (I dont know the official terms). The DJ played all the 90's R&b hits, there's a super lounge nightclub meets exclusive restaurant experience. The bill was higher then expected; the signature drinks that came served in 750ml bottles were not priced in the menu & there was a Birthday Celebration fee. We had such a great time, no complaints!!

The ambience is awesome. I give it to them. Especially as you walk in although it has a sort of…read moreValentine day feel to it. The food was ok. I ordered the oxtail and didn't really like the sauce but that's a personal thing. I ordered the curry goat and salmon burger to take home as well as calamari. None were really great, just ok. The calamari at the restaurant had some peppers and ginger which gave it a kick. The one I ordered to go had nothing but fried calamari, unfortunately I was home so couldn't take it back. The drinks!! I am definitely skipping this next time. A cocktail is $48 plus gratuity and tax means spending $55 on a cocktail drink. Nooooo!!! Even in Vegas, I didn't spend this much on a cocktail drink! I was alarmed at my check. It was so high for lunch but now I know better. Plus watch out for the 22% gratuity! The waiter wouldn't split the bill so my takeout was lumped into the entire check and had to pay 22% gratuity on the takeout!!) I gave a low score because of the sneaky high check and the food which was just ok. The food presentation was amazing though. That's a 10/10.
