I got food from here before and it was good but this time around I was definitely disappointed. I got an order of jerk chicken with rice beans plantains and salad. The chicken was 4 small size pieces which is ok but it was mostly bones with a just a handful piece of actual meat. The rice and beans was good plantains were ok not bad. The salad was good too nothing special. Probably the best thing out of all this were the sauce packets I got here to be honest, sauce was very good. With all that said this box cost me $18 plus tax. This is definitely not worth it in my opinion and most likely I will not get come here again since the quality went down and it's overpriced. read more

Jamrock Jerk - Jerked Chicken $18 plus tax - Caribbean Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

First time trying this cart location and the food was good but given the protein portion it was a bit on the pricey side. Chicken was little dry but the oxtail, rice and salad were great. It Is nice to have the option in the neighborhood when you have a craving. read more

Ordered online at 6pm for pickup 6:50pm. Declared my arrival at truck at 6:50pm on the dot, didn't bother fulfilling my order. 7:20pm still nothing. Claimed miscommunication amongst staff members but honestly, shouldn't the order have already been ready at 6:50pm? Requested refund (by the way online price is 10% higher) Don't bother with this place, you won't get your food. read more

This is a chain of carts all over nyc. Their jerk chicken is dry unless you drown it in sauce and is very expensive. The jerk chicken comes with salad and your choice is sides. I got the Mac and cheese and rice. Very small portions and the chicken is very dry. But can be an emergency spot when you need that jerk chicken fix read more

The quality has gone down- it's mid at best now. Maybe as they have grown quality has been sacrificed. The jerk chicken is dry- not to mention I asked for jerk sauce ON the chicken but got none. Not even a packet in the bag. The rice was dry as well. I asked for creamy Italian salad dressing and got none. Not worth paying a total of $30 for subpar food. Lesson learned- open your box before leaving to check if all that you requested and PAID for is what you receive. read more

I was super in the mood for Jamaican food today due to a huge upcoming reggae concert with legendary Buju Banton in New York today and stumbled across this food cart with authentic smokers and the smell alone drew me in! It was meant to be! The service was awesome and they were super nice which is sometimes hard To find in a Carribean food spot lmao IYKYK!! Lmao. I'm happy to know they also do delivery . The food was great and set my day ready to go to the show ! I had the staples Oxtail and Rice/Peas and Jerk chicken (super authentic ) w must try !!!!! Glad to have this place Near me! read more

Good jerk chicken, cooked nice and slow. It is a mobile restaurant so there is now real ambiance. Service is usually quick but the food is really good and they set up in places that typically don't have Caribbean offerings. read more

The chicken and pork were a bit dry but very flavorful and the smoking was done well, again, despite being a bit on the dry side. The portions are big too (for the meat) which is nice. The sauces are pretty tasty also. Took away a star cause the sides weren't my favorite (one bite of the Mac and cheese was plenty to know it's not the best). The salad was pretty weak as well. Both sides were way overpriced for the portion sizes. I was also very disappointed in the lemonades. They are loaded with sugar and high fructose corn syrup (which you can clearly taste) despite being listed as "natural" (which they clearly were not). They were not tart at all despite saying they have 100% lemon juice in them. I'm a lemonade lover and this did NOT reach the bar at all. Overall would order again but skip the sides and drinks entirely, meats only. read more

They were at a pop up in Astoria near 30th Avenue and smelled amazing! Really wanted to try the oxtail but they said the pork is good too. The flavors were on point and they packed it full, came to $20 something with tax. Came with plantains and salad, rice , would definitely get again! read more

I ordered the Jerk Pork, rice and peas, salad, plantain and mac and cheese. I thought the portions were decent. I made two meals out of it. The jerk sauce that they provide in a packet is delicious. I took a star away because I felt that it was super expensive (almost $30) and I thought they could've done a better job with the mac and cheese. The flavor was pretty bland. The girls that were taking orders and packing food were pretty friendly and efficient. read more

I ordered on door dash its sunday oct 5th and there taking extremely long and know closing time is approaching and food us expensive for terrible delivery service if your hungry this is not the place to order from im very upset and would never refer this business please avoid ordering here read more

Jerk chicken taste good with the rice but the jerk sauce they gave was way too sweet like strawberry jam sauce. Didn't fit well with the spicy rice and chicken meat in my opinion. I am glad they gave sauce packets instead of pouring it all over themselves. The price was expensive at about 19 dollars for one medium box of chicken and rice. In my opinion 13 would be a fair price.....Overall I liked it and there was a good amount of meat , in the photo it doesn't show that well but it's there underneath. read more

Jamrock Jerk - Jerk chicken box - Caribbean Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Ordered delivery from Jamrock Jerk. I got the stewed oxtail with rice and peas, sweet plantain and salad. The oxtail fell right off the bone. The rice peas is topped with oxtail gravy without the side of attitude. The plantain gives the meal a sweet and savory vibe and the salad is just salad, but the lettuce is crisp. Check it out for yourself! read more

Jamrock is some of the best food in forest hills. I ordered the jerk chicken with rice and salad. The chicken was delicious and moist and the portion was enough for 2 meals. It also comes with a small salad and plantains. There's always a line before they open, so I went around 12:30-1pm and there was no wait, so I just ordered in person. Can't wait to try the rest of their food! read more

I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately it wasn't what I expected. To order we had to wait over 10mins for someone to ask and we were the only ones there, that's apart from me asking who can I place my order with. Than the staff all seemed upset and with an attitude. Waited another 15mins to get the food and on top of that it was cold and just wasn't what I thought it would be. The rice was bland, Mac and cheese was super dry, the chicken was ok, a little too spicy for my liking, we wanted to enjoy the outdoor seating but the amount of bees as we sat was insane, Not sure if I would give it a second chance. read more

Jamrock Jerk - a box of food on a picnic table - Caribbean Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Oxtail from @jamrockjerkny $20 . This is worth every single penny!!! . I've always wanted to try this food truck, but don't want to wait online for it. Luckily, the line was short so I had to try it.. I know Jamaicans know how to cook oxtail so that is what I went for... I did hesitate a bit due to the price but I honestly didn't want anything else aside from the oxtail. It was either the oxtail or nothing... . I am so glad I got it, it was so freaking delicious. It came with 10 pieces of oxtail of which all had meat on them... they were very generous, but I'm not sure if was lucky or that's their normal portion... I was very satisfied to say the least. The meat was very tender and juicy. And that sauce, drizzle all over the rice and peas (as they call it), I can eat that all day every day... . The best part though, it was not spicy. Most of you DM asking me about the spice level. I cannot take any spice so had it said spicy oxtail, I would have passed on it. However, I think the sauce does have some hot pepper, a very very mild kick, but nothing that lingers or numbing... they do offer hot sauce on the side for those who enjoy their food spicy.. . It also comes with plantains and salad, honestly, I would be ok without them. The plantains wasn't overly ripe so it was not very sweet or mushy, the way I plantains.. as for the salad, definitely nothing special... dressing comes on the side... . This only tells me their other items are probably good too, but I dunno if I want anything else aside from the oxtail... I'm not really a jerk chicken fan, I always find them on the dry side, but now I understand why there's always a line... you can order for pickup... I'm so glad the line was short and got to try their food finally... read more

The positives are that each side is weighed so every person gets an equal amount of food. I really appreciated that extra effort taken to serve everyone equally. The line moves along fairly quickly. The staff are very efficient. The Mac and cheese was just okay. I think it's likely because it's only a side it's fairly plain to pair with the jerk meats but standing on its own it's nothing special. This is not to say it wasn't enjoyable, it just wasn't memorable. I would've loved to have tried the meats but being that they're not halal, alas I couldn't give them a go. Credit card fee is .75 cents so just pay with cash. read more

Other than being quite pricey for a food truck, the food is legit. Both the pork and the chicken were tasty and had a beautiful char. The oxtail was delicious, perfectly cooked. Many places either overcook them and they fall off the bone or they undercook them and the tendony parts get stuck in the bone. However, this was very well-made. Even the rice and beans and plantains were really good and I'm not a rice and beans or plantains kind of person. The only negative thing I have to say and it's a big negative is that the jerk sauce was too salty and just didn't taste very good. That's extremely unfortunate, me being the condiment whore that I am. read more

Love the jerk flavor, quality of the food, portion size and speed of delivery. Usually I order online and pick up, this time around I went with online delivery, price was a bit higher but the service and delivery were spot on. Still hot and enjoying a delicious combination of pork and chicken (meats only) not much to say about the ambiance as this is a food truck but I can assure you the taste speaks volumes and will make you feel like you're in Jamaica. Get that scotch bonnet sauce for the extra kick of heat and enjoy! read more

Food is good. Portion have gotten smaller over time. But the service I would give one star. Both this spot and the one in Williamsburg. Don't bother ordering for pick up because they won't have your order. You will wait on line with everyone else. Forget Uber eats. You wait forever for them to end up canceling your order because they gave it away. Half of the time the crew is standing around talking and not caring much about anything. I won't be buying from them again. read more

Amazing! No sauce needed. We had it delivered to our place of business and for some it was their first time having jerk and for the rest we were seasoned vets and everyone loved it. read more

Very tasty chicken. A complete meal in a box for $16. If not aware, order online and pick up without making the usual long lines. If you are a fan of eating from a cart, try this. They have a great system to keep the line moving fast, not to mention the tip above. read more

I got everything that's on the menu. Not one thing that I really like it. Oxtails was ok and that's about it. Mac and cheese was super dry with minimum flavor. Pork was very dry. Meal supposed to come with 3 sides rice, salad and plantains I didn't know two small slices of plantains call side. It was line that was moving super slow it not really worth it to wait for it. There's much better food you can find around there. read more

We've walked by several times in the past; & each time there's a line. We finally decided to give it a try. This food cart operates in different locations. On Saturdays, it graces Forest Hills with it's presence (right across from Boston Market). There was 9/10 people working this well kept food cart. We ordered the pork; & chicken meal. Each meal comes with salad, a bed of rice & peas, & fried plantains (you can also opt for just the protein for a few dollars more). Everything tasted good, but the star of the show was the pork imo. Tender, & delicious. The presentation, & packaging of the food was done well. The sauces came in sealed packs, & was branded with their logo. They accept credit cards, but charge an additional $.75 for it. I recommend checking their website to see if they are near you on certain days. read more

jAMACIAN FOOD! real good food and atmosphere. They put some nice jams while you wait to order.The food is great and i have not tried the oxtail yet because it always gets sold out. The sides are killer and the jerk is real good as it is prepared outside. read more

I just finished my meal from Jamrock jerk my experience was above average I got the jerk chicken platter has 2 large pieces of chicken rice and peas sweet plantain and a side salad for $17 it's a good value for the area there very fast preparing the meal took less then 5 minutes the only negative about this establishment is for me the chicken needs to be more spicy but overall I would recommend read more

What happened? They barely give any meat anymore. What a waste of money, it's not cheap either. They really don't give you what they used to give. A full meat platter fills only the very bottom of the container and a regular only fills the corner. It's not worth the money anymore. Even the full order macaroni was limited. I use to rave about this place to everybody, but after 2 times in a row of barely any meat I might not ever go back - not worth the money. If you are also noticed a HUGE decrease in the meat portions, you should also say something. It's not right and a full steal of money - I don't care how good it is. read more

The portions are perfect. They give plenty of meat, rice, and salad. I like the jerk sauce and the dressing.

Delicious!! I wish they were here year round!! They should make Jerk wings the wings that are in the half chicken attached to the breast are flavorful little elbows of goodness!! read more

I stumbled across this food truck, visiting a friends house and circled back on my way home. 5 stars all around!!! Amazing service as it pertains to food trucks. They were kind and helpful. The food was amazing, very authentic jerk. I would go back in a heartbeat if I lived closer. Oh, and that jerk sauce in the packet is something serious, I loved it. Everything was yummy. They did not skimp on the serving size, there was a lot of jerk chicken and a lot of rice & peas. Very filling and worth the price. I recommend! read more

Jerk chicken was good and salad was fresh. They give you quite a few different sauce packets which I appreciated. Give them time to set up and get the chicken cooking because it takes some time.. also, you can order online ahead of time. I'll try the oxtail next time. read more

Racist workers. Meat is burnt and dry. Taste is bland. Very very over priced for what the food is. Do jot recommend.

I love their food and have never been disappointed until recently when I began ordering food for delivery. My last three orders were sent without the jerk or hot sauce, even though it was requested when ordering. The food still tastes good, however, since they specialize in jerk, I would prefer that they continue to include the sauces it in their delivery orders. read more
