    What can I say, Mama knows what she doing. They make the best Jerk Chicken in Far Rockaway. Their ackee and saltfish is so delicious.

    Jamaica Breeze Buffet - FYI if you put a piece of oxtail in your meal and you'll be charged the $10 plus oxtail meal price

    They didn't have rice and peas when I went and the Mac and cheese wasn't the best(could be…read morecheesier). But the food was seasoned well and I enjoyed eating it! I feel like the price was reasonable for what I got. I thought it was a buffet because of the name but they charge you by the pound. So my plate came up to about $12-15. Not sure if this is a family owned business but the people working the night I came in were friendly and kind. I would suggest going earlier in the day they might have more options available, I was hoping to get some greens or cabbage, any vegetables really. But they had fruit and that was good as well.

    I've lived in Far Rockaway for 14 years and I was really excited when Jamaica Breeze came to the…read morearea ( I always travel to the other Jamaica Breeze on Merrick to buy food for my family of five). I believe the owner runs a kids soccer program which I enjoyed when my son attended. However, My feelings are changing about coming to Jamaica Breeze anymore because the offerings are inconsistent and the staff always seems to be disgruntled, sour faced, and it's just not the best experience supporting a business and giving your money that you've worked so hard for when there's no real customer service or appreciation. If you don't care about stuff standards like that then this place is fine for you. At the buffet, you can pick what you want and pay the price that's posted versus Golden Krust where they will stuff you with a whole bunch of rice and two pieces of meat. The food at JB is ok especially since the area doesn't have much West Indian choices-however, overall It won't kill the staff to be a LITTLE more friendly to their customers who provide the jobs that they have. For instance, something as simple as "good morning" with a smile cost nothing. Furthermore, on the part of the staff if the customer says "good morning", "good afternoon" or "good evening", respond in kind. instead of just looking mean and constipated. Is this what happens in most Jamaican places? Are the females always so mean and rough looking?

    Restaurant is located on the corner of the main road Sheridan on a very busy street with street…read moreparking only and it's not always easy to find. I have placed a couple of take out orders from this place but always greeted with the same guy behind the counter that is pleasant. He moves at the same pace as any other Jamaican or Caribbean restaurant you would go get take out from but he is soft spoken and nice so it's ok and manageable. The restaurant seems to be set up for an evening spot. Has a small bar and bar tables, sells DVDS and has some old school arcade games. I haven't been there on a late night but seems like a place the locals go to for a hang out which is probably cool. I have consistently ordered the pepper shrimp. I love it! I have not found a place that makes it the way I do and they do. It's amazing. I wish there were different size options because I just want more and more but it's great. It is not that cold shrimp out of the fridge you find at other places. Also they do Ackee and salt fish with rice and cabbage. I happen to like the idea because I usually waste most of the "food" from the other places and ask for rice on the side. So this is a good option. Flavorful, has a pepper kick. I like spicy so I'm down for it. The ackee portion is small. So I will just warn you there. However it was very filling for me. I did have the curry chicken roti. I did not love that. It was very dry and lacked in seasonings. I will stay away from the roti but I'm please by most other meals.

    Placed an order for three large orders of oxtail with rice and peas and steamed veggies. Received 4…read morepieces of oxtail in each tray??? For all of the money that I paid, the food was good but I am highly disappointed in the portion of oxtail received and I do not think that I will order from here again. -__-
