The oxtails are smaller than what I'm use to. But the food is so Delicious! Everything fresh! This is my third time eating here. Try the food, you won't regret it! read more

Only a half block away from the Stephen P. Clark Center in downtown Miami, this place may be small but the food packs a punch! The jerk chicken was delicious, the rice and beans were tasty and the yuca fries were crispy, salty, crunchy on the outside!! Very recommend!! read more

Great spot for a quick meal with BIG island flavors. Came in and had the rice and peas, jerk chicken (of course), broccoli, corn, and sides of the mango/pineapple salsa and jerk ranch. It was my first time and the staff were really helpful by offering samples, telling me what's popular and their personal favorites. Would come back again! read more

Literally my favorite curry chicken and yuca. I love I can pick it up quick and customize my bowl however I want. They are super generous on portions, you can literally share it with another person. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed my meal from here! Love the concept of a custom authentic Jamaican bowl. Meats were fresh and seasoned well (not overly or under seasoned). Plantains were sweet and delicious. Cabbage was very good. The chicken and beef patties were perfect. The restaurant it self was clean; it had its own vibe and the servers were very nice. Wish we had one of these in Chicago! read more

Put this on your must-try tourist restaurant list! The setup is similar to Chipotle--but with a Caribbean twist. You get to build your own plate by choosing your rice, meats, veggies, and more. Overall, the pricing felt fair--except for the oxtail. It was definitely overpriced for the portion size and not as tender as I would've liked. Still, I'd recommend stopping by and trying it for yourself! Customer service was average. Oh wait beef patty AMAZING. I almost didn't get a pic! read more

Love this place go here often when at work . Really good food and customer service.I will continue to go there in the future.

There's a wonderful thing of living in a big city where you can enjoy Jamaican food during a Lunar new year festival! I'm a fan of Jrk! Having tried them at both an elite event, a food truck as well as snacks during their nightclub space next door. Since most of the food at the lunar new year event was seafood, I stopped here for some sustenance instead. The service is fast food: order at the counter, and the employees were friendly. I enjoyed their jerk chicken bowl with an extra protein portion and sides of rice and beans, fried plantains and fried yucca sticks. The rice & meat were well seasoned and the portion big enough that I had for lunch the next day. They have both inside and outside seating, and Sunday I ended up eating on the patio to continue enjoying the festivities. read more

Feels kinda like a Jamaican Chipotle with an efficient assembly line for bowls or wraps. Except it tastes so much better! Like legit flavor meets fast casual, it's just perfect. Jerk Chicken: Heavily marinated and dripping with flavor. Any other chicken will just seem bland. I paired it with rice & peas, which had a very nice coconut flavor. Ox Tail: The coveted oxtail and oxtail gravy. It costs more than any other dish, but it's worth the splurge. Each bit around the bone is rich and flavorful, kinda like slowed cooked short rib. And that extra gravy is just magical on rice. Jerk Chicken Mac & Cheese: They do mac & cheese right here. A nice top of layer of melted cheese and nice blend of cheese throughout. There's also some shredded chicken to liven it up, though the main jerk chicken dish is a bit more seasoned. Crispy Yuca Sticks: A honorable mention for a side. Hearty, crunchy and soft in the middle. Great for exploring the various sauces they offer. read more

Pleasantly surprised and proud. Authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, pleasant staff and clean dining areas. Jrk! Has gone a great job of presenting the Jamaican culture through food and decor with a slight twist and modernized approach. read more

They have a pop up stand at a heat events so I got to sample multiple food items of theirs and everything was Delicious! The chicken fell off the bone and the spices were mouth watering, had us coming back for more. The owner was really sweet too. If they can slay at a popup, I can only imagine how delicious it is at their actual location. Definitely going back here! read more

Great food in an awesome space. I'd already been to dinner at Mangrove where they have more of a chill lounge vibe at night, during the day they use that space as a driving area for the fast-casual concept Jrk! The food is great, I got a bowl with quinoa, jerk chicken, plantains, and broccoli. The grains and meat had huge portions, the fruits and veggies not so much. They also had patties which I'll have to try next time. A little expensive but not too shocking for a place downtown, it didn't bother me. Cool drink options too. read more

Jrk! - Jerk chicken bowl - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

After returning my library books downtown I decided to walk over to Jrk and have some lunch. I walked in around 11:30 and it wasn't crowded at all. I decided to get the vegan bowl with rice and peas, broccoli, some sort of red cabbage, and the pineapple plantains. Every thing was delicious and tasted authenticity Jamaican for a "fast food" type of spot and that really impressed me. Now for the best part: if you decide to dine in your lead to this amazingly beautiful spot that apparently turns into speakeasy after hours. It was so nice to be able to eat my lunch here by the window and watch all of the downtown employees walk around on their lunch breaks. The service was wonderful. All of the staff were kind and prompt and helpful to me when I couldn't decide what to order. If you are craving a tasty Jamaican meal without breaking the bank you should definitely give Jrk a try! PS: the virgin piña colada I ordered after my meal was the real star of the show and it needs its own separate review--it was DELICIOUS read more

We got here 30 min before closing. Protein choices were small, but from what they had it was cooked so well and delicious. The beans and rice were very good and flavorful. Young were good, and the bbq sauce we chose was very good. All in all it was a guys choice service was quick and friendly read more

Best jerk chicken I have ever had. Good quantity and quality for a good price. There was a line but it moves fast. I will definitely be back. Thank you! read more

I eat here at least once a week! I love this place. Between the kind staff, large portions, unique flavors and fast service, I can't decide what I love most about this place. When it comes to the food I highly recommend the peas and rice for your base and jerk chicken for your protein. Huge insider tip, ask for some Oxtail gravy on top of your rice for a huge burst of rich flavor. The restaurant is a fast-casual style where you go down the line and choose what your stomach calls for. The line gets pretty long during she weekday lunch rush but don't worry they work fast to keep it moving. Overall, this is one of my favorite places to grab lunch in all of Miami. Can't say enough great things. read more

Stopped before my flight and it was so worth it. It's a really cute spot. We were greeted when we walked in. i was iffy about the food being made already but they did not disappoint. You are able to try what you would like. You can order a bowl or wrap. My favorite was the curry chicken, jerk chicken, fried rice with jerk sauce, pineapple plantain, cabbage and jerk mac & cheese. The customer service was great. Also I could here the music and vibes before walking in. Definitely will be back. read more

Delicious vegan options, rice and peas, sweet plantains, steamed cabbage, curry chickpeas... but sadly heard they were removing their vegan jerk. Please bring it back!!! Service was very friendly and the restaurant looked lovely. The food line was impeccably clean. Everything was fresh! Also, thanks for having vegan patties. Yum!!! read more

So i was leaving Miami and thought "i wonder if they have some good jamaican here?" And came across / discovered this gem. Kind of in the cut kinda place, but the inside was so nice! It caught me off guard in a good way and not to say i expected something shabby, it just was so bright and nice and new looking. But yea -- oxtails were well flavored and cooked. Very good! Rice was delish as well, cabbage was crunchy with peppers JUST LIKE I LIKE. My lady liked hers also so two thumbs up guys read more

Jrk! - OXTAIL BOWL & JERK SHRIMP BOWL & chicken bowl - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

Usually to get good Jamaican food I have to go to Fort Lauderdale or Miami Gardens so its refreshing to get such great Jamaican food in downtown Miami. I also love the service, usallly they say the ruder the service for Jamican food the better the food, however at Jrk its not the case...they are kind and the food still is fireee read more

Service was friendly. Food was amazing! There isn't seating inside but they do have tables outside. The meat is super tender. We tried all of them. If you're new to Jamaican food, try the curry chicken. Or sample the others. Give it try and support local!! read more

Had their jerk chicken bowls bogo (Uber eats) and very good. The jerk chicken has flavor. They're busy w/ take out orders so customer service is not their thing but realizing it has become faint in the F & B industry. read more

The oxtail are very small, that consists of mostly bone. There were only two medium oxtail that I could eat in the plate. I ordered a side of BBQ chicken because I felt that the oxtail would be that way. The BBQ chicken was cut up into chucks, with a sweet spicy taste. I didn't enjoy it at all. The cabbage had little to no seasoning. The corn was not good. The food was cooked in a spice that stands out and does not taste good to me. Being from New York and visited Jamaica a couple of times this food does not measure up to Caribbean food in my opinion. Now let's get to the price. I had oxtail, chicken, rice and beans, cabbage, and corn, sweet plantains for forty dollars. Mind you it was not a lot of food. As well as the chicken was cut up or chicken chunks, the oxtail had little meat. Also, we rode around for ten minutes and couldn't find parking. We parked in the lot for twelve dollars, they don't validate parking. Buyer Beware. The food is not up to my par in my opinion.​​​ read more

Jrk in Miami offered mouth-watering dishes, such as their curry chicken with rice and peas, along with a side salad. After a night of dancing, JrK is the perfect place to grab a meal. The take-out area was clean and welcoming, with menus and displays of the dishes customers could purchase. The staff was patient and accommodating to customers who preferred vegetables or had food allergies. read more

A few days ago, we stopped by Jrk for lunch. Unfortunately this visit was different from the others and I wanted to mention our experience. Management has decided to raise prices on some things and charge for extra sauce and water. There is one tiny sauce cup that comes with the meal but if you want a couple of other flavors they charge you for them. Those cups are half filled in a tiny cup and don't go far. They were $1.×× extra. I was thirsty and asked for a refill of my existing cup but they wanted to charge a $1 for the refill of tap water or I could buy a bottle of water for $5.95! Really? Then to add insult to injury, when we were paying our bill at the counter, the female cashier offered the lady in front of us a complimentary slice of banana bread to go. So when it was our turn, we inquired nicely about a complimentary piece of banana bread. The lady got upset and rude about it. My daughter reminded her she gave away a piece to the other customer, then the cashier kind of shoved it over to us with an angry expression.. She was definitely having a bad day. Unbelievable! We tasted it at home ...it was bitter with no banana taste whatsoever! One bite apiece and it went into the garbage can. We will not be returning to this location. They food there is good but the service has changed. read more

So far I've had the Jerk chicken bowl and it was so good that I had it two days in a row. It took everything in me not to order it the Thursday back to back. The jerk is spicy so let this be your warning but it's that good spicy that makes you keep eating it until you're stuffed. The bowl was so filling that I was able to eat it for lunch and dinner. Make sure you get the jerk ranch! Thank me later. At this point I have it at least once a week. I haven't been to the actual restaurant, I've only ordered it delivery so not sure about the ambiance. But I will visit soon read more

Jrk Downtown earns three stars because both the veggie and curry chicken patties were freshly made and tasted good. That's high praise from someone from the Bronx, where the best Jamaican patties are made. They lost two stars because of Blatant Deception. They advertise that they sell jerk chicken patties, but they don't! I called the restaurant before I Uber'd there and asked, "Do you have jerk chicken patties today?" the response was, "Yes, we have jerk chicken patties today." When I arrived 20 minutes later and asked for jerk chicken patties I was told they don't sell jerk chicken patties ! read more

Small place with a lot of taste. This place always hits the spot! There's definitely a lunchtime rush, but they work quickly. You can also order on uber eats and pick up to avoid the line read more

Excellent flavors and selection including vegan options. You pick your base, staple and sides and pay at the end. Polite and efficient.

Rasssssss! Top tier Jamaican food! It looked like one of the owners came from the back to serve me in a timely manner. They had classic reggae songs playing to set the mood and the overall restaurant was super clean. This place was amazing! It's literally chipotle style Jamaican food. I bought 2 bowls with the rice and beans, cabbage, and oxtails. They were generous with the portions too so you know that's always a plus! Ended up getting a few Jamaican patties on the side as well, everything was A1 read more
