    Jerk Chicken (Small)
    Fredricka S.

    Spotted the food truck when we stopped for gas and decided to check them out. Their portion size is large even the small size and the service was vert good as the server was friendly. We had jerk chicken with peas & rice and cabbage; sautéed shrimp, Mac & cheese and cabbage then the other dinner ordered with a sides dinner (Mac & cheese, cabbage, peas & rice and plantains). We each enjoyed our food. Would recommend stopping by!

    Best jerk chicken and the rice soooo goood,first time and I'll be back,my friend brought me here and I would definitely recommend and also good customer service

    I'm in LOVE this place is my go-to jerk spot from here on out. Moved from Orlando and as I was it's to Jackson's soul food which was closed I saw the truck smoking the line lengthy and cars busting illegal Uturns so I followed my nose.... turns out my nose and stomach agree upon each other. Cust service was impeccably Caribbean and sweet thanks guys for your service and puttin ya foot in it I featured you all on my iG @juice_y3ll0wdiam0nd I approve this message jerk chicken and Mac-N-cheese on POINT

    Service was so friendly! However, my tastebuds were not fulfilled. The meat was dry and the jerk sauce was just okay. I really wish that the seasoning was more explosive.

    All that for $7 bii.. That's a "small" jerk chicken

    Huge plates for even their smalls.. A jerk chicken w rice and peas and a corn on the cob for only $7.. Never had a bad meal here. Jerk Pork is amazing, jerk chicken amazing.. Make sure to ask em to throw some sauce all around it if you like it real spicy. They make it in a PIT (the way you're supposed to lol)..All I gotta say is this is some of the best jerk chicken I've had in my life, and they hook it up. This place'll be real famous in like 3-6 months tops, mark my words bii

    The best bbq truck so far!!

    It's at a gas station so parking is crappy. Great taste, the jerk chicken is the best. Must get the Mac n cheese. I don't know if others will b this good. Great portions. The workers are friendly. I'm definitely a loyal customer from now on. It's worth every penny.

    I stopped by STK for lunch with my best friend who was visiting from New York. We originally…read moreplanned on doing brunch, but we found out they only offer brunch on Sundays, so we decided to try their $45 prix fixe lunch instead. We both started with the Baby Gem Caesar salad, followed by the steak frites, and both courses were really good. The steak was cooked well, the fries were crispy, and the portions were satisfying for the price. For drinks, I had the Perfect Margarita while my friend enjoyed a martini--both cocktails were well made. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the prix fixe menu was supposed to include a sweet dessert, but ours never came, and no one mentioned it. It wasn't a huge deal, but it was disappointing since it was part of the meal we ordered. Overall, we still had a nice lunch, enjoyed the atmosphere, and would definitely come back especially to try their Sunday brunch next time.

    On Tuesday night, I visited this place for happy hour. We opted for the outdoor seating, but our…read morewaiter took a while to arrive. There were a few other people seated outside, and the lady next to me was already complaining about her food taking so long. She had been waiting for 30 minutes. Despite the slow service, our waiter was a bit peculiar, but it all worked out in the end. The restaurant wasn't overly crowded, but the waiter seemed quite stressed. The food did take a while to arrive, but it was worth it because everything was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the tuna tacos and the wagyu tacos. The bacon mac and cheese was creamy and cheesy, but it was also greasy and fatty. The bacon was more like pork belly chopped up into cubes. I would definitely return to try the oysters and beef tartare.

    when my usual lunch place was closed (due to it being a Sunday), i searched maps to see what else…read morewas close by, and i'm blessed to have found Pinch Kitchen. I sat at the bar which was readily available and quickly greeted given a menu. The place is quaint in size but big in personality, and they have more seating than you'd anticipate from the outside. I appreciated the size of the menu, a variety of options, but not too large, and they had special brunch menu offerings for the weekend. I got a beer and the fried fish sandwich. The fish was flaky and perfectly cooked, and somehow, despite it being deep friend, it wasn't the least bit greasy! The bun was squishy, and the slaw was a glorious addition. Oh and the fries? I could've eaten another portion they were sweet, salty, crispy, soft: perfection. So ya, in case you didn't catch on: 5 for sure, and I WILL be back.

    Pinch Kitchen & Bar is one of those spots that deserves a review, It's a true neighborhood staple…read morein El Portal and honestly, Miami doesn't have enough places like this anymore. You walk in and immediately feel that local, unpretentious energy that's been missing from a lot of the scene. Do I love that it's on Biscayne? Not really. But the food more than makes up for it. For a bar-style environment, the food is consistently very good. Not just "good for a bar" ... like its actually good. The burger is a must (im pescatarian but my friend said it was delicious!) and their Eggs Benedict at brunch is easily one of my favorites in the area. Pair it with a Bloody Mary and you're set. their happy hour pricing is refreshingly reasonable, which is rare around here. I was talking to one of the bartenders and found out even their bread is made in-house. That kind of consistency and care, especially at these price points, is not easy to maintain and you can feel it in the food. It seems that their leadership (owner or manager, not totally sure) has always been present when I've gone and brings a great energy to the space. It trickles down to the staff and the overall vibe. You feel welcomed!!! I this is the kind of place that deserves real support. It's local, it's consistent, it's affordable, and it actually feels like a community spot -- something Miami desperately needs more of.
