I don't even know why it took me so long to try this place. I've always been curious about it. Finally went for it, and wow... the food is AMAZING! I had the oxtail with rice & beans and plantains, and let me tell you, I was literally sucking the bones clean. And the Jamaican patty? Hands down the best I've ever had. This is that rare kind of spot where everything tastes like it was made with love--real, home-cooked vibes. Definitely a must-try... you'll be coming back for more! read more

Jamaica Kitchen - Oxtail lunch with rice & beans plus plantains. - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

We ordered quite a bit to go yet felt rushed as we were getting refamiliar with their updated menu. Curry chix patties Jerk chix patties Spinach patties Jerk chicken 1/2 chix Jerk chicken wings 6 pieces Curry chicken Goat curry We enjoyed the jerk chix wings, curry chicken, goat curry but the jerk chix breast meat was over cooked and dry, would not repeat. The patties have less filling than before and they do not give hot sauce anymore. read more

This is probably the best spot in Miami to get a Jamaican patty. I came here right when they opened and ordered a dozen Jamaican patties. It was so convenient because I had a Caribbean themed birthday party to go to that was a potluck and had to bring something on theme. Everyone loved them, they were so excited that I brought the patties. Unfortunately, I didn't snap a pic of the patties with all the excitement from the party. But if you are looking for authentic Jamaican food, this is the spot to checkout. They are located in the shopping center off sunset and 87th. The only reason I gave 4 stars was because they are supposed to open at 11:00 am and the person that opened the store was 5 minutes late. read more

Jamaica Kitchen has been around for years, but today was my first time trying it. There aren't many places with really good beef patties, and I must say theirs were delicious. They also have plenty of lunch options to choose from. I had the jerk chicken with rice and peas, and it was pretty good too. Solid spot for Jamaican food! read more

I can now say that I have been coming here for a while, if you see the evidence above. I was in the area, and I remembered these are some really good patties. It's still true today. I haven't had a chance to get my usual curry chicken, but maybe in the near future I will. The patties were amazing as always. read more

I love all the food here. Today I got 2 lbs of freshly made jerk chicken sausage. It's the best jerk chicken sausage I've ever had and I've tried a few! It's not too spicy but you have a nice tingle in your mouth after eating it! I also had a spicy beef patty and a coconut water. The patty wasn't too spicy so that was great too!! The crust was nice and flaky!! Lunch time is busy so be prepared to wait! read more

Yelpers I read reviews about this place and was highly disappointed with the food. Especially for the price they are charging. I ordered a the oxtail dinner for $26 , along with a Jamaican patty. The customer service was fine. It's more of a fast food spot so there is really no ambiance in the place. The patty was over cooked, dry and the crust was hard. The oxtail flavor was very bland. Rice was great! If I go back it would be to try something else but definitely not the oxtails. read more

This is the first time I have tried Jamaican food and I'm so impressed on how flavorful and hearty the food was! I felt like I was having a bowl of my moms best comfort food. I had the curry chicken and literally ate every bite, it was delicious! Can't wait to come back and try so many other things on the menu, which are plentiful! Very friendly service and the food was ready in no time. Definitely try this place out, it will not disappoint!! read more

Me and my girl came here yesterday 3/20/26 for the first time we saw it on instagram and the comments and food looked positive and all good so we decided to go try it and it was 10/10 the patties were what we expected and they fill them with meat inside which most places that make patties don't fill them much with meat back in the days my grandparents worked at 3 star bakery on marlin road in the 80's and 90's and this place took me back to that great real Jamaican taste .i can honestly say this is my new top pattie spot . the oxtail was fire good and the jerk chicken with rice amazing also we definitely recommend this place great food read more

My wife and I had lunch here we paid with a credit card. At the time of paying we asked to see what she was charging us since we suspected that the bill was too high. The young girl at the resister immediately lowered the bill by about 12 dollars, very suspicious. It was clear to us that this girl is overcharging customers. Be alert or get ripped off. read more

I decided to give this place a try since it wasn't far from my hotel. I ordered a jerk chicken plate for $22. The chicken was quite tasty, and the plantains were delicious. However, I wish they had provided more than just two pieces of plantains with my $22 lunch. If there was a shortage and they were rationing the plantains, they could have offered a substitution instead. Overall, it was a decent meal--not the best I've ever had, but certainly not the worst. Since I'll be working in the area for a few more weeks, I'll consider giving this place another try if I can't find another Jamaican restaurant. The customer service was great. read more

Support your local, family-owned businesses! Jamaica Kitchen is one of my favorite spots for a home cooked, affordable lunch. You can't go wrong with their jerk chicken with rice and peas or any of their patties. The ladies are always so friendly and have a good attitude despite being very busy. It's a small spot in a strip mall next to Winn Dixie. No indoor seating (but a few tables outside) so your best bet is to pick up an order to go. read more

Whenever I am in Miami, this is a must stop for Jamaican food. The service is excellent and always pleasant. This is a take out spot that can accommodate a few eat-ins. As a matter of fact, as soon as I post this review I am going there for take out dinner. read more

Veggie patty : badly cooked crust with corn kernels as the main filling. Mild beef patty? Tasteless, could be served at Baptist hospital. Hard pass on this overrated spot. Customer service : speaking chinese at the front desk in front of a predominantly spanish and english speaking clientele: unprofessional. Take the drive to either Clive's cafe or Taste Rite Jamaican bakery, even Pate Chaud Caribbean Cafe Miami. read more

Been here a few times, but haven't had a chance to review. This place is a hidden gem. I had the jerk lunch chicken portion as well as a (jerk) and (curry) Jamaican beef patty. Delicious food. They have a full menu with plenty of various options. Their soups look good. Will try those next! Place is always busy and they are extremely nice and welcoming. read more

This place lives up to its name in being a "Jamaican Kitchen" because outside of serving food there are a bunch of Jamaican goods that you can get there too! Definitely adds charm and makes this place a unique dining experience. Free parking is available within the lot, however this place does have limited seating inside, but you can always opt to eat outside or take the food to go. The place has a "hole in the wall" more intimate feel to it. Food was phenomenal! I was pissed when I looked down and saw that I cleared my plate. Oxtails were literally fall off the bone and paired so perfectly with the rice!Food was flavorful with a slight spicy kick which was super refreshing because my spice tolerance is low and I hate to feel like I'm battling my food. I'm not kidding when I say the plate was so good that I mentally checked out mid conversation with someone and could only focus on my food at one point in time. The portions were also good too; despite me getting a lunch plate I was super satisfied. The one and only critique I do have is the cabbage could've used some more seasoning.Also head's up I went in at 11-11:30 am and there were some items that were not available yet so you may want to wait until dinner to get a broader taste of the menu. Service was great! Staff was kind, attentive, and super helpful. Despite me placing my order within the restaurant it did not take long to get at all. They also packaged the food very nicely! The saran wrap helped to ensure I didn't have any leakage from the oxtail (thank God). All in all I would DEFINITELY return again. Great food, great service, great holistic Jamaican find. read more

This place has really fallen off over the years. We had jerk chicken with rice and peas and stewed oxtail and rice and peas. I also order a boiled dumpling on the side. Everything was very bland. I can no longer recommend this place. Quite unfortunate. read more

Good tasting, Jamaican cuisine in a casual kitchen-like setting. Good portion for the price.

Best Jamaican food. 10/10 service 10/10 food. Try the Jamaican Patties and the Beef Pumpkin Soup.

This is one of my favorite places to visit when I am in Miami. I have only had goat or oxtail there. With the sides, I think hey skimp on the cabbage and load the plate down with rice and peas. The "rum" cake is great as well (adults only). The patties are good if you eat them right away. I will try a chicken meal next time I visit. read more

My first time here! The food was delish (see bites taken out of beef patty before a picture could be taken.) Keep in mind that most everything is made fresh so if you order there, be ready to wait 20-30 mins. The beef patties are made ahead of time though, so you can likely order one while you wait - which I highly recommend. read more

Authentic Jamaican food for great prices. I've never been to the actual location to be honest I have only ordered out from them. Every year at LEAST for one holiday we order from Jamaica Kitchen. We basically get the most food to enjoy everything this spot has to offer. I have tried everything and can easily tell you it taste authentic and taste amazing. Their patties are el fuego. I love them spicy but will eat them both mild and spicy. Beef and cheese patties omg. Melt in your mouth good. I've also had the oxtail and jerk chicken. So good. They have the best jerk chicken. It's spicy but not crazy spicy. Their fried rice and pigeon peas are also superb. Really great spot to grab food Jamaican food. Will be catering with them again very soon. read more

Great food in a little strip mall. Of course they have a friendly staff, they're Jamaican. I'm no expert on Jamaican food but I love the ackee and salt fish here. Not oily, unlike a few I've had in Kingston. Boiled dumplings and Festival are always fresh. The brown stew is my favorite. It's inexpensive, fast casual, I always take it home. Well worth the money. read more

Whole in the wall - AUTHENTIC Jamaican food ... with super kind owners. Doubles as a little market for seasoning and sauces if you wanna make your own. Great service - even gave us a couple free "sweet plantain patties". Not much seating but you can sit outside on the patio and enjoy the cool night breeze. We got their just before they closed so some items were sold out but the highlights were the jerk wings and rice and peas. The plantains were also fantastic ... read more

The food is great. It's a far drive for me but it's worth it. The Jamaican jerk fried rice is not available until after 6pm. That's my favorite dish there. Then the curry chicken number 2 fav. My daughter loves the oxtails. I did catering for thanksgiving. I placed my order two weeks before and everything was great except the cabbage. It's was crunchy and flavorless. If it wasn't for that I would give 5 stars. I recooked the cabbage added flavor and meat then it was great! I will continue to keep going even though the drive is one hour away one way. The customer service is great as well. Was able to call the catering order which was great. read more

Small location but don't let that fool you. They have great food and service. Very quick. Great flavor and affordable!

Jamaica Kitchen doesn't disappoint! When you walk in you get the nice island welcome with a smile. The place is always filled with too many options to choose from so tonight we narrowed it down to a few things; jerk chicken patty (my favorite), mild and a spicy beef patty, vanilla rum cake, jerk chicken wings and jerk pork fried rice. It was great!! While waiting, I checked out the goodies in the market and it was great to reminisce about the great times in Jamaica. The food, the flavors, the decor is all a great taste of Jamaica Kitchen. Say hi to Cheryl when you go by and enjoy! read more

Love love love their jerk chicken meal. The patties are also great, my favorite is the spicy beef but have only tried that one, beef and cheese and chicken. The service is great, friendly staff and the order always comes out quick. The spot is small so not much space for sitting but they do have 2-3 tables outside. It's more of a pick up type of spot. They also have a small Caribbean market inside with some nice options - teas, cookies, spices, hot sauces, and much more. Super recommended! read more
