I wanted to try Caribbean food, so I decided to try this restaurant out. I ordered jollof rice, curry chicken, and collard greens--and they gave me jerk chicken as well. It was amazing! The rice was delicious, the chicken was crisp and tender and fresh, and the curry was nice and spicy! The service was excellent: the owners welcomed my mother and I right in, and they were very kind and polite. The vibe was pleasant and cozy. I will definitely be coming again! read more

I tried this food yesterday for the first time and it was the best food i have had in a very long time. And the service was amazing too! I truly appreciate the experience. And i definitely will be back soon!! read more

STOLE $64.93 from me didn't have food delivered they suck refused to resolve issue not very good ownership

No sense of urgency, called my order in drove 10 mins and still waited 10 minutes. Next time I will go to the 7-11 next door.

For the price of $55.60 I would say that I should get more than 3 oxtails with that plate. The Curry Goat plate was plentiful though. The size of the oxtails I got one good sized one and two pretty small ones and some loose bones. There was a lot more gravy that gave me the impression that I had more meat. The service was very nice and the owner went out of the way to make everyone feel welcomed. I would give another chance possibly to get the oxtails again if I could get more than 3 to my plate the next time because they are really delicious. I only rated a three because I felt one plate was good and the other was skimpy. read more

$24 for a small portion of curry goat with rice and peas which was mostly bones and fat. Not much flavor. Total waste of money. Will NOT ever go back! Will stick with the Jerk Hut! read more

I cannot imagine why this restaurant would have anything less than a 5 star rating. Absolutely love their food. It's authentic and delicious! Dexter is wonderful! read more

The oxtails were delicious a little sweet but i still loved it, it could've been more tender but it was still good. The yams were a little too sweet for my liking and too much cinnamon but I liked the mac n cheese it had a lil tang to it, real tasty real good ! read more

The food was horrible....the jerk chicken tasted like BBQ sauce...not authentic food...cabbage was so over cooked and sweet...Jesus, Himself could not resurrect the cabbage from the dead...this is food is horrible! I'm wondering if the cook is really Jamaican. read more

They were very hospitable. Very nice. But the food was not good. The cabbage was sweet. The oxtails were SWEET. I don't like sweet oxtails. couldn't finish them. I you like your cabbage and oxtail sweet, this is the place for you. Not me..... read more

do not eat here took an hour and a half to make me oxtail pasta whole time the oxtail was sitting in the burners. How do you make the oxtail so fast you just opened? And why does it take an hour and a half to make pasta?? then on top of that. The food was so nasty. it just taste like some barbecue sauce . And I think I saw a roach in the kitchen. I don't know for sure though. read more

My boyfriend and I waited over 30 minutes for our order. We placed an order on door dash and the set pick up time was 4:47pm and we were still waiting on our food for a very long time. read more

This is our go-to spot when we're craving oxtails and beef patties. The oxtails fall off the bone and have great flavor. My mother-in-law is from Jamaica and she said the oxtails taste just like her mom used to make. We recently tried their Rasta pasta and also fell in love. It has a little spice but we loved it! Dexter, the owner, is super nice and is always working hard around the clock. All the staff is super friendly everytime we stop in. This is a to-go place and parking is tight but they are always quick to get your food ready. Highly recommend! read more

Awesome food. Awesome people. We are from out of state and we stop here to eat anytime we are in town.

This is definitely a hidden gem. We had ox tails with plantains and rice and peas. It was not only delicious, it was tons of food at a great price. The owners were very sweet and even offered us chocolate covered strawberries, as it was Valentines. We will definitely be back. read more

This place is amazing. The food had so much flavor and they didn't skimp on the servings. I met the owner who is very passionate about the quality and taste of the food. I unfortunately showed up after they had closed and they were cleaning up for the night, but they had no problem serving me. I got the jerk chicken, cabbage and red beans and rice. It was absolutely delicious and the sauce they put on top was from another world. I couldn't get enough, it was so good. I'm definitely going back to try more. I'm so happy I decided to stop in and give them a try. read more

Be aware this is not Jamaican food. Both of my parents are Jamaican and I've spent a lot of time there. Authentic jerk is not sugary. I ordered the jerk chicken and it was so drowned in sweet sugar sauce. It was sloppy and submerged, I had to throw it out. I guess when you say Caribbean food it could be from anywhere in the "Caribbean" and different countries throughout the Caribbean have their own interpretations of jerk but this was terrible. I was hoping I finally found Jamaicans in Virginia Beach and didn't have to drive to Norfolk but this place is NOT it. Two stars because the staff was nice but the food was not. read more

Spent almost $60 for some cold dry Mac and cheese, no candied yams that I paid for. The cabbage was cooked till it was dead! Selling catfish bites for fillets! Just WOW! Highly disappointed. I almost forgot...paying $6 for a slice of stale lemon cake...gesh! read more

Omg ! This food was so so so good ! Best caribbean food i've had ! I got the beef patty & stewed chicken. It was great , mad I had to share with my boyfriend I'm coming back for my own plate next time ! read more

I honestly just wanted to have something Jamaican food. I ordered my food around 3:45pm through uber eats and I received the food 6pm. Now, when I got the food it had literally 9 fries, 3 plantains and 3 pieces of chicken. These people are losing their damn mind if they think 9 fries can be beneficial to anyone. The absolute worst experience I have ever had & I wish your business nothing but failure. read more

My daughter and I were in the area over the weekend and we stopped by Jerrrk Time for lunch. The guys working there were super generous, shout out to Dexter who had great customer service. The food was super delicious. We ordered the jerk chicken, curry chicken and beef patties. Let me tell you, the chicken was super flavorful, seasoned to perfection and was falling off of the bone. The Mac and cheese was just as delicious. The candied yams were great as well but they do contain pineapple chunks for anyone that's allergic. One of the best Jamaican spots in the area! I will definitely be going back very soon. read more

I saw this place on TikTok and decided to stop by and try it out. The employees were really nice and the food looked promising. I've had oxtails plenty of times but this place definitely disappointed me. The oxtails were so tough and for some reason , sweet. I was expecting savory. The rice needed salt and was so dry. But the cabbage??? The cabbage was the star of the whole meal and literally the only thing I consumed. Cabbage was very flavorful and seasoned well. $20 oxtail meal given to a homeless person. Won't be returning. read more

Jerrrk Time set up their food truck in one of the local neighborhoods. We were looking for something to do and I didn't want to do any dishes tonight so we went to check it out. We are so glad we went! We ordered two chicken plate with 2 sides. Jerk chicken with cabbage and macaroni and a bbq chicken with cabbage and rice and beans. The chef asked if we liked Caribbean food. I replied, "yes" and he and jokingly said, "Good, cuz this is the best in the country." After devouring all of it, I don't think his conceited response was far off. That was excellent food! And the portions were large, our to-go boxes were stuffed with food. The jerk chicken was moist, falling apart, and full of flavor and spice. The bbq chicken was delicious. Not too sweet with great spice. The cabbage was perfect. Large pieces of well cooked, well seasoned, and chocked full of peas and carrots. I thought the macaroni would be plain jane. Nope. Full of flavor! The rice and beans were also perfectly cooked and tasty. Our entire meal was gone in less than ten minutes. Jerrrk Time (not to be confused with Jerk Time, another local competitor) was terrific food. We look forward to returning and eating here again. read more

Y'all.. the smell driving by pulled me in. Little bit of a wait due to staffing issues (who isn't dealing with that right now) but omg the food was so worth it. We got the fried catfish, yellow rice, cabbage, jerk bbq chicken, and Mac and cheese. Catfish & cabbage are two of my favorite food items and they surely did not disappoint. The rice is full of flavor and veggies and the jerk chicken is so damn good. Everything was so delicious. Be patient & await some of the most delicious food in Virginia Beach. read more

The jerk chicken was great... However, I ordered cabbage but received collard greens which were not fresh. Also, my order was confirmed at 11:40 (they open open at 11). I didn't receive my order until an hour later. My dasher was communicating the whole time, giving me updates. read more

Food was subpar. If you've had authentic Jamaican you will know this ain't it. Oxtail were sweet and the jerk sauce tasted like BBQ sauce. No heat whatsoever. I won't be a repeat customer read more

Really good Caribbean food. I remember they used to be a food truck but I never tried them until they had a store. Authentic Caribbean food, ox tail was melt in your mouth good, the mac and cheese was delicious and same with the rice and peas. Definitely one of my go to spots for Ox tail in the 757. read more

The gentleman, was gracious and hospitable. My son and I. was the first customers when the doors open. But the hostess, arrived, she address my son and I, and started she recognized that we have been waiting for a while. The second customer arrive, she annoyed my son and I, waited on the customer and served him promptly. I stepped to the counter to place my family meal order. Now my family and I arrived at 11:00am, Now a few more customers enter the store, this lady waited and served everyone promptly. This woman deliberately ignored us. Only after the store was clear, was we given our food.She didn't express remorse, not did she provided an apology. But only offer me an "nasty Nice" smile. Received food, at 1:00pm. I don't have a clue what the food taste like., and to disappointed from the -1 /10 customer service. So if you enjoy long waits, being dismissed and experiencing total disrespect by a hostress, well roll over to this place. Because the attitude will slap your appetite out of your mouth. PS, please take the Biblical messages down, it's concerning when disrespect is served free on the menu. read more

I absolutely love the food here! The staff is amazing and so friendly. You can't go wrong grabbing food from here !

Listen! I'm not sure why they have no yelp reviews, but let me tell you....they can have ALL MY MONEY! Hands down this is the best jamaican food I have ever had. The seasoning is so different, I can't really describe it but it so fresh and seems like my plate was cooked in Negril in somebody's kitchen for Sunday dinner. It puts any other jamaican restaurant to shame. Oh, I had oxtail mac n cheese and cabbage. He had jerk chicken, yams and rice and peas. When we were eating nobody said one word, just all lips smacking lol. Whoever owns this place PLEASE, PLEASE branch out. Stop reading, get in your car and get you some good food! read more

I got the oxtails with rice and peas and the fried plantains. Food was very delicious!!!!! Definitely the best in the 757.

This place never stops amazing me...I always order the curry chicken, aside of cabbage and mac n cheese, a side of sweet yams and a crack tea. This combination alone puts you on your back but worth it. I cheated my diet today with them and can't wait to see them again on my next cheat day The folks who run the place are the most kindest people I've ever met and although it's a little pricey, it's worth it. I promise! read more
