I ordered some jerk shrimp from here and when I got to the restaurant it was closed so I drove all the way to the closest location for her to tell me that that location doesn't do Grubhub so she can't do anything. I never got my food and ended up going to the firehouse in the shopping center read more

The food is excellent and reasonable love it, ambiance was cool, and the service top notch at its finest read more

Never pick up the phone, apple maps says they are open on days they are closed , my 3rd time trying to get something from here & they closed at 7 instead of 8. Waste of a 32 minute drive read more

Vibe: amazing customer service, super friendly and helpful! They run out of items so go earlier in the day, lol. Food: amazing! Jerk chicken (white meat 5/5). My daughter has ranked them #2 after M&F (she likes the balance in their jerk sauce) I'm ranking them #1 (the customer service pushed them ahead of M&F in my opinion). The rice and peas as well as the cabbage were good. The chicken was definitely the star of the show, more spicy but also well seasoned down to the bone! Delicious! Just go. That's the post. read more

Amazing service, food, and environment, the barbie fried chicken is hands down my favorite entrée.

Food is great. Authentic Jamaican food. The server was polite and everything taste great.

Met our expectations for authenticity. Picked up dinner for our trip back home and we were very pleased. Portion, quality, service and hospitality have made this a go to place when we return to the Richmond area. It's a Thank you A & C read more

maybe I went to late or something but my rice was dry like falling off the fork dry smh. I ordered island fried chicken they were out of jerk chicken. the chicken was just fried chicken nothing special. the cabbage was just cabbage and carrots no special seasoning are anything. the chicken patty was the best thing. I wanted 20 minutes and I was very disappointed would try it again but I would rather not waste my money. read more

Jamaica Jerk Pit - Rice was dry... island fried chicken was regular fried chicken, I was sad - Seafood Near Me - Henrico, Virginia

Located at the intersection of Broad St and Hungary Spring Rd. I ordered the goat with peas and rice and cabbage, plus a beef patty... You know the vibes lol. I COULD NOT STOP EATING. I was overstuffed when it was finally gone, but it was too good to stop. The goat was tender and cooked with the usual spices and tings and just a little bit of heat. I had the pleasure of chatting with Chelsea. She let me know they just celebrated their 1 year anniversary of being open here in Richmond! The place is simple in appearance, but if you want good hearty Jamaican food to go, this is definitely a place w worth checking out! read more

This place is such a gem! It's family-owned and the woman who served me was so warm and welcoming. Beyond that, the food is outstanding - it was hot and fresh, plus the portions are great. Seriously, this place is 10/10. It's so great to have an authentic Jamaican spot in this area! read more

Jamaica Jerk Pit - Large Curry Chicken and Oxtail Plates. Sooo good and perfectly seasoned! - Seafood Near Me - Henrico, Virginia

Service was great. Did not have to wait long for food. The food was good but a little spicy

I went into this place today to give it a try! The lady was very rude and flipped out when I told that I don't want green peas in my oxtails! She seemed to be irritated and not friendly at all. The food was not good or seasoned good. I will never go back here again! read more

ATTENTION The West Indian community of RVA is relatively small, only three reliable restaurants, but listen to me good right now.. WE HAVE A NEW PLAYER‼ The owners are wonderful, the location is crazy convenient to get to, and the FOOD IS THE REAL DEAL. ORDER AHEAD AND BUY MULTIPLES. YOU WILL NEED THEM ‍ Stamped: Delicious. Review: Took the jerk and curry to a family party, they ate all my food AND went to the restaurant the next day for MORE‼ read more

Walked into this place after picking up my alterations next door and was the best choice I made all day!! It seems like a hole in the wall where it is situated, but it's actually quite cozy inside with bar seating to look out the windows. There was a line when I stepped in, but considering there was only one lady working up front it was fast haha. She was friendly and got my food pretty quickly. The portions are generous even for a small. The jerk chicken and oxtail weren't overly oily which I have seen in other restaurants with this sort of food and had really good flavor. I'm not sure if jerk chicken is supposed to be spicier, but I was okay with the spice level. I could see others that might want more. Oxtail was amazing. I enjoyed the cabbage and there was so much rice that I'll probably have it for another meal. Couldn't get enough of the sauce. More sauce next time please! read more

We got the curry goat and jerk oxtail. Both are good but I wish the oxtail is much tender that it goes off the bone on its own and a little spice. The staff were really friendly and the service was fast, she told me food will be ready after 15 mins but I didn't wait that long. The store was clean and well-lit. read more

Jerk chicken, cabbage with rice and peas. The chicken was ok, I could taste the scotch bonnet which I loved. The rice and peas tasted like water and so did the cabbage. There was no love in this Jamaican food, still edible but definitely no love. I will not be back. read more

I had been hearing about this spot in the West End...finally decided to give it a shot. Staff was super friendly and the restaurant was clean. It's more so of a takeout spot, so keep that in mind. They do DoorDash orders also. I ordered Jerk Chicken and a beef patty. All of my food was fresh and hot. I needed a little more jerk sauce on the chicken...other than that it was perfect. I'll be back! read more

Ordered and they said it would be 10 minutes but it took longer. The food was worth the wait though. Two women working behind the counter were very very nice and apologetic for the wait. Ordered the beef patty, coco bread, fried plantains, jerk chicken, and ox tail. Ox tail was great and I loved the beef patty and coco bread. So happy there's a good jamaican joint in this part of town. I hope they stick around for a while. read more

I rarely give out 5 star reviews unless I've had an exceptional experience. Found this place while pumping gas across from it. Finding good Jamaican FOOD AND SERVICE at the same place, at the same time seems to be a rarity in my experiences. (Anyone who knows, knows exactly what I'm talking about)! We ordered a small curry goat/white rice/cabbage, a side of fried sweet plantains and a large oxtails/peas and rice/cabbage to go. PROS: *The lady behind the counter was pleasant, polite, and hardworking! If only more workers in the business of hospitality could be like her! *The food was FRESH, HOT, and DELICIOUS *The portion size was good, did not appear to skimp on the meats CONS: *The wait. Now to be clear, although we were told 15 minutes, it was closer to 30 minutes+++. However, it was worth the wait. I will take a meal that is cooked fresh, in small batches (clearly to save from being wasteful and provide fresh food for us the customers ) any day over stale, precooked, sitting under a heat lamp all day,dried out meal. It may not be fast food, but it's delicious food. read more

Best I've had in Richmond and I asked for extra gravy and you see it! 10 large pieces (yes i counted). Definitely 10/10 and the service was excellent! Bit of a wait but well worth it. Coco Bread didn't even make it to the pic. read more

Great atmosphere and friendly people who work really hard 7 days per week. The food is consistently excellent. Yes sometimes you have to wait because here is a news flash they cook fresh food in small batches Ignore the complainers who had to wait.. If you want freshly cooked food not sitting on the stove all day... stale and old.. then this is the place for you... Go home and cook for yourself without complaining about people who are doing the best job cooking fresh food right off the stove.. to those who say the rice is dry ... it is not supposed to be wet.. want... wet sticky ...rice cook it yourself and if you have nothing positive to contribute go away... It is a great spot... support a small business... while I know no one is perfect they are really good! Most Jamaican restaurants fail to measure up however these people really do! Perhaps I am being harsh but so sick and tired of people who have never had a business and do not know what it takes to start one, how hard people work, the effort they put into it, to do the right thing to provide great service with a positive attitude and there are always imperfect people just looking for an opportunity to drag them down with their negatives... I wish you great success Jerk Pit! read more

Lady at the front is VERY RUDE!!!! I waited in line for a few minutes while she service call in orders that arrived after me. I finally placed my food order. I stepped next door and afterwards came back over to p/u my food. She tells me she thought I left and didn't do my order because I wasn't there when she turned around. Then proceeded to be nasty with me read more

The woman taking and preparing orders was so nice. The food was decent but doesn't really stand up to some of my local favorites but I'd revisit just because of that woman's kind spirit. read more

Food was amazing. I had the oxtails and they were seasoned perfectly and the rice was on point

The most positive energy I've ever experienced in a restaurant. The woman who took my order made my day better with her presence. Food feels like I'm back in New York City , amazing all around. read more

Randomly passed this place on my way somewhere else and immediately pulled into the parking lot. Good Jamaican food is hard to find in this area (imo) so I had to try it out. Brown stew chicken is absolutely phenomenal! The coco bread was nice and warm and the beef patty was flaky and delicious. Apparently they've been in business since September 2022 and I've never noticed. I'll surely be back. read more
