I had no idea this place was nearby. There are three other Jamican takeout restaurants I frequent. This is the only one that offers dine-in. The location is cozy, and the lady who served me was very friendly. I got the lunch special, an order of plantains, and a Ting to drink. The portions are good if a little on the smaller side. To be fair, I got the lunch special, which is a smaller container. The flavor of the curry goat was good, but I'll be honest in saying that the tastebud and nerve issues in my mouth continue to make things difficult to enjoy and taste properly. The cabbage and rice and peas very also good. The plantains were freshly made. I noticed the prices seemed a bit high, but that appears to be across the board everywhere right now. They also have a mobile app, which gives you five dollars off on the first order when you use it. I downloaded it and will use it on my next visit. read more

Jamerican Kitchen Cafe - Brown stew chicken, rice, cabbage and sweet plantains with a Grapefruit Ting. - Caribbean Near Me - Beachwood, Ohio

Great first impression. Off the bat the order taker was very friendly and informative, food was made fresh to order, the jerk chicken known for being spicy wasn't hot to the point of not getting it, good portion size and side options. I personally ordered the Oxtail which very good and fresh. The ambience was very nice, good seating, music and it was very clean. read more

Amazing jerk chicken lunch! Definitely a Worcestershire based jerk sauce with about a 4/10 spice ievel. Fantastically juicy two drumsticks and thigh in my meal so not a bunch of extra bones which I love. The flavor was fantastic and charred in so well without any dryness at all. This was over a bed of rice and peas (black beans here I believe) and a side of some sort of cabbage/slaw. The fried dumplings were basically large wheat flour dense kinda sorta dry hush puppies without any spice. The banana pudding was there but kinda thick and more fluff than pudding which wasn't bad flavor wise just a bit dense and almost too "dry" in texture to be considered a pudding. Nothing bad. Get the jerk chicken! read more

As a born and raised Jamaican I can attest that the food tastes great and the portion is good to serve for two days if you not greedy lol. Great service read more

Jamerican Kitchen Cafe - I got the oxtail plate with jerk chicken on the side. - Caribbean Near Me - Beachwood, Ohio

The jerk chicken was ok. Zero on the spice level, however. Dumbed-down for Americans, I think.

I got the curry chicken. It was a huge serving. I ordered the large size and ate from it for three days. The chicken was cooked perfectly and fell off the bone. The rice and beans were flavorful, and the vegetables were tasty and they were plantains to sweeten it all up. read more

This little restaurant serves delicious food food at affordable prices and has a really nice Jamaican feeling about it. The staff are very warm and friendly. It was a perfect place to have lunch. read more

I was on my way to my Aunties house and thought let me stop and get us a bite to eat because, I was hungry and it was around lunch time. I'm relatively new back to #DaLand and ready, willing and able to try all foods. That's just the way my belly is set up. Take it up with Jesus OKURRR. Anyway, I'm driving and bloop I see a Jamaican spot and pull in. When you are hungry, sometimes you make rash decisions and when you don't know any better...well...I can't say that because I MAKE certain Hamaican dishes and well...I have no excuse but, you have to TRY as looks are deceiving. I walk in and it's a decent enough front of the house. A few tables, I guess in which still practicing social distancing for customers. I d I not recall to many other safety measures, but it could have been there as I was too busy listening to Chronixx and got stuck. When I snapped out, my food was wrapped and I just wanted to get to the house. OH! I did ask her was the Chicken cooked on the grill and she affirmed with a nod. Which I should have known was a lie because I didn't smell any grill or lingering of a grill!! Anywho, I get back excited and my bubble was quickly deflated. Burnt, dry, no flavor. I ordered Jerk Chicken. How do you mess that one up. I would forgive Oxtail or Goat dammit, but JERK CHICKEN? THE STAPLE DISH OF MY BELOVED JAMAICA!!!! CHO!!!! The ONLY plus is that it came with two leg quarters, but it was pointless because they were not good. The cabbage! Oh goodness. Now that had the salt the chicken was missing. Not sure if it's the same cook daily. But non grilled chicken for JERK chicken nah right. And I didn't receive ONE plantain. EVERY Jamaican restaurant from here TO Jamaica provides plantains Mon, what happen to you?!! (Kisses teet) I shall NOT return read more

Best Jamaican food in the entire Cleveland, quality service and staff are very friendly.

Jamerican Kitchen & Cafe is back and better! I was sad when they closed during COVID-19... but I am so glad they are back! The food is amazing-- I got the Jerk Chicken lunch combo with rice & beans and cabbage. I added an extra side of baked Mac & cheese. Excellent! As always, I appreciate the great customer service from the owner (she was working to prepare and package my food). Finally, this new location in Beachwood is soo nice with updated furnishings, etc. read more

One of the best Jamaican spots around. I'm happy I found this place on Yelp. I went on a Saturday and they even had a DJ, felt like I was at dance hall. Call ahead if you are getting seafood. I know the chicken curry is ready to go. read more

I haven't been inside the restaurant but ordered from Door Dash, so please take this into consideration. I ordered the Jerk Chicken from this restaurant thinking it would be a delicious meal during the lunch hour. I ordered not too early and not too late which is usually when the lunch food quality is at its peak. When the Door Dash arrived it had an odd and unusual smell. It smelled like feces, and I'm not even kidding. I smelled the food constantly before taking a small bite later to be meet with an odd sweet/spicy texture. However, the texture of the food was odd and and I threw out the rest of the meal due to the putrid smell. I wouldn't personally recommend their jerk, as I had Jerk from multiple different restaurants and it never tasted or smelled as odd, I wouldn't be surprised if it was feces! read more

I can honestly say I wasnt expect much from this place, but I was really surprised and it was the good type of surprise. Ordered the Oxtails and they were seasons just right and extremely tender!! (fall off the bone) The Curry Chicken was tasty and reminded me of our trip to Jamaica. Portion sizes are excellent and the service was quick, plus they were very friendly!! Try to 7-Up Cake if you have a sweet tooth!! read more

First time checking out this gem! The food was incredible The server was the sweetest! He was extremely patient answering my questions about the different options and made some great recommendations both for me and my fiancé who is vegetarian! Tried the jerk chicken, rice & beans, cabbage, collaloo (greens), plantains, and curry chicken! Everything was AMAZING! Curry chicken and the Collaloo were especially amazing! And the portion sizes were gigantic! Oh and they had Ting (pink grapefruit soda), one of my all time favorite drinks (really hard to find otherwise)! Will definitely be at Jamerican again, many many more times! read more

Apologies in advance the food was so delicious the first time I had it three weeks ago that I ate it without taking a picture for this review. I waited to write it so I could get that perfect snap and I did it again ! This food is so delicious that it just can't wait for a photo. Jamerican kitchen is a small dine in/carry out restaurant featuring authentic Jamaican recipes . Delicious and prepared with love and passion Sidonna has tailored her recipes to suit the American palate while keeping true to her roots. I had the Jamaican Irie rice which is flavorfully seasoned with Jamaican curry and vegetables I couldn't get enough. The Yard Style Jerk chicken is tender and juicy. Dry rubbed with jerk seasoning can be served with Jerk sauce on the chicken or on the side . I like to ease into spicy food so I had my sauce on the side . The Jerk chicken comes with the rice and peas which is delicious. I also recommend the chicken patty and the veggie patty. Kind of like an empanada. The patty is filled with seasoned and cooked veggies in a sauce. It reminded me of a chicken pot pie but make it Jamaican. If you want authentic and delicious support this small business! read more

I love Jamaican cuisine and i tried a lot of different places, this place is amazing nothing but fresh and delicious food!!! The oxtail they serve there is one of the best i ever tried. read more

My husband and I went last night and arrived a minute after closing. They we are nice enough to allow us to purchase dinners from the food that they had left remaining. Needless to say it was amazing and we decided to come back again today. We've now been able to consume four different items and are impressed with not only the AMAZING taste but the quality and amount of food that we receive as well. We will be regulars! read more

Went to this restaurant because I the one I usually go to wasn't open but I still wanted Jamaican food. So I found this spot that is very close to me actually only 9 mins. and the Food was AWESOME. I got the stew chicken over rice and peas and cabbage and it wasn't over cooked or over seasoned, very nice portion for 13 bucks . the service was nice... The young lady that helped me informed me it would be a wait they need more servers on the weekend but that fact that she even communicated that was nice. I got my food and a Ting Drink and was very please glad I found this place I don't think I'll be going back to my old one. read more

Excellent food, one of the best I've had in CLE. Friendly greetings from staff. Great location. But...Staff didn't wear masks though on more than one occasion, so I won't shop until that changes. When working with the public you must consider the health and safety of your clients. read more

I ordered oxtail and some patties. The patties was thin with barely any filling and very oily. The oxtail was different, I had Jamaican food before but this had a gamey taste. I cant explain. read more

If you are looking for something amazing and new, this is the place! Tonight we ordered chicken curry, goat curry, ox tails, irie rice, red beans, and rum cake. None of these dishes disappointed! The ox tails were sweet and tender in an almost BBQ sauce. Not my favorite, but definitely something I would not turn down again (from a girl who hates BBQ sauce, that is an epic compliment!). The curry chicken was tender and balanced; not too hot, not too mild. Paired with the irie rice, it was a salty sweet satisfaction. By far the best part of our meal was the curry goat. It was so tender that it fell apart just looking at it. Paired with the red beans and rice, it was perfection in every bite. We still have a slice of Rum Cake to taste. It smells like HEAVEN, but our bellies are so happy from the rest of the meal it has to wait to be tasted. For take out in the Cedar-Lee area, this place is solidly in the top 5. Their decor is not inviting. There is no restroom to use if you are dining in. Their store front is a little haphazard, but they opened during the shut down, so judgement needs to be withheld. Portions are large, flavor is amazing, can't wait to go back to try more from their menu. read more

Can you say DISCUSTING! I am a bariatric patient so I cant eat alot of sweets so I usually stick with meat and vegetables. I ordered the jerk chicken for $7.00 and they gave me the smallest styraphone box with 3 tiny pieces of chicken it had some spice to it but they put some kind of sauce on it that was sweet. I also ordered the oxtails and they smelt like tomato paste and something sweet. I didn't want to believe it that someone added sugar to oxtails but it was nasty sweet meat. I paid $13.00 for the oxtails and they were sweet and unsavory. I also noticed that during this time with covid 19 going on the cook in the back blue glove looked so nasty and disgusting I noticed he was handling food and washing dishes with the same gloves on. After I ate the food "tasted" I felt so sick I had to lay down and drink water. Until the pain from the sugar "dumping feeling"would pass. I'm sure weight loss patients will understand what I experienced and would want to stay away this place is nasty and not worth your time. If you like sweet meat and are ok with going into a diabetic sugar coma and ok with being beat out of your money then this might be the place for you. If you are looking for real jamaican food then unfortunately you would have to try some other place I usually get my food from ocho Rio on ivanhoe and he is ok sometimes but this restaurant Jamerican I'm going to have to say hell to the naw. Dont eat here read more

If I could give no stars I would I placed my order for an oxtail dinner 30 minutes before arriving. When I got there I was told there would be a 10 minute wait after waiting 30 more minutes my food was still not ready needless to say I left and went to The Sauce and was in and out within minutes. 2 Uber eats drivers also left without food. Poor service this place has really went down. read more
