This spot has been open for several Months but I believe in waiting to let new places work their kinks out. It's a takeout only restaurant, which is fine. Menu is posted on the wall and there's also a QR code at the door for the menu. Prices are reasonable, especially for the amount of food you get. The chicken was well seasoned. The Mac and cheese wasn't the best I've had but it wasn't the worst. The cabbages were very well seasoned but a little overcooked to my liking. I did not like the hot water cornbread at all. I can do without it the next time. My favorite thing was the pineapple ginger lemonade. They have several flavor of lemonades and punches to pick from and they are already packed to take with you. I will try a few other items on the menu. I think it's worth that. read more

It made me feel great when I was greeted with hospitality and a smile as soon as I stepped in the door. I have always heard great things about Jerk City Grille but I finally got to try the food and it did not disappoint. It actually made me say why haven't I tried them sooner. I got the bowl with rice and beans and curry chicken. I also got the cocoa bread and I got a couple of meat pies. Everything was delicious...the curry chicken, rice and peas and vegetables along with the sauce that was on the ingredients in the bowl has an extremely amount of flavor. The cocoa bread is super moist and full of taste. I got my food to go and I ordered once I arrived. It only took 10 minutes for my order to be complete. I also enjoyed the Jamaican soda. Jerk City Grille is now one of my go to spots. Please give it a try and I'm sure you will be happy and coming back for more. read more

My hubby and I were excited to give this place a try after seeing it on one of our Food group pages on FB! We ordered 2 ox tail plates with rice and peas and cabbage! We really wanted to 2 different dishes but after I asked for menu, the person at the counter rudely pointed at a piece of paper taped to the glass!! We also ordered 2 of their house made juices that are sitting by the register! They have cold ones as well, but she didn't let me know that. Thankfully a gentleman in the back came up from and said ma'am we have cold ones too! This idiot stood there and said nothing! ! She gave us our total of $54+! My husband paid and said thank you! She said nothing. We sat and waited on our food, it only took about 10 minute, She gave us our food, my husband said Thank you, and again she said nothing! I really wanted to ask for a refund because of her attitude! This is a black owed restaurant and I really wanted to support.. We went to our car and ate our food there. To be honest I've had better. The fat wasn't trimmed off the oxtail.. Which I hate. The cabbage had no seasoning.. This place is an absolute NO! I'll spend my money with Godfrey's read more

HELL NO! This MESS has to be for the locals! No way can ANYONE think this is Jamaican. As soon as I opened the container I knew it was a bust. I was expecting to see grilled chicken. The chicken seems to be baked and it's sitting in BROTH! They call it gravy but there's no way. No scotch bonnet peppers, no real Caribbean seasonings was this marinaded in. It wasn't even marinated! They tossed some Walkerswood marinade on it and called it Jerk! The rice is yellow with beans and green onions. No coconut milk was used to cook it. The cabbage has no flavor at all. I was expecting to see multicolored bell peppers, thinly sliced carrots and onion. NOPE. This was worse than the jerk place I had in Dallas! My husband called and the owner had the nerve to say "everyone has their own opinion on what jerk chicken is" huh? Ummmmm no, Jamaicans KNOW what jerk chicken is! Ppl that eat jerk chicken KNOW what it is! I would've been ok with them calling this brown stew chicken but not jerk chicken. On top of this horrible madness, they give you 2 leg quarters. At home jerk chicken dinner is 1/2 of a chicken. And it comes with rice and peas and 2 sides. We're totally disgusted and sorry we wasted our time! SOOO YALL MEAN TO TELL ME THE ONLY PLACE TO GET AUTHENTIC JERK IS TO GO TO JAMAICA OR CHICAGO?! Wow! For all the ppl that posted this spot and swear it taste soooo good, ask God for you some taste buds! read more

I ate a Jerk City Grille the one on Ronbison Rd in Jackson Last Saturday and got food poison i got very sick and I still have not bounced back yet fully I have the stuff turkey leg. I ate there before and it was fine but when I went back my Lord I got very sick I don't leave reviews ever but I had to get this one out read more

I visited them for the 2nd time today, and the result is the same: the food was subpar. The Curry Chicken does not taste nor look like authentic Jamaican curry. I opened it and questioned the cook about it because I told her it didn't look like curry chicken. It seemed like they hired someone who really doesn't know how to cook Caribbean food. Same thing with the oxtails, rice and peas and the cabbage...did not taste like a Caribbean dish at all. It was in some type of sauce I couldn't even tell you what it was. Today was my last time eating there. read more

First time experience... it was good. The dude inside cooking is really nice. The food was delicious. I would come back again and recommend to others. read more

The food here is the bomb!!! I try to treat myself to this fab food every other week!! The Jamaican juice is the best!! I would recommend this spot to everyone!! read more

So I decided to try this spot. I wouldn't recommend this place at all. My plate with my juice was nearly $30.00. I ordered the oxtail plate and the oxtail was full of fat and grease, my cabbage were soggy, and Mac and cheese had no seasoning. It wasn't worth it. Anyone saying this spot is amazing don't really know good Caribbean food. The number one turn off about this spot is that the guy behind the counter said he opened up this spot due to the fact that there are only two other Caribbean food spots here. There is no passion about opening up the restaurant. He just opened it just to make a quick buck. That's sad. read more

So I decided to give this place a try because my coworker had been raving about how good the food is . I love Caribbean food so I ordered the curry chicken , cabbage along with rice and peas . I was very disappointed at the quality of the food one of the leg quarters was undercooked not to mention it was overly greasy and the curry sauce was greasy that it had both the cabbage and rice greasy also , I picked around in the food til finally I trashed it , sorry I won't be back , Taste of the Island and Sambous are the places to go for authentic Caribbean cuisine Jerk City Grille wasn't it for me . read more
