    Jerk Chicken (Full Meal)
    Terrissa N.

    So far tho is the only Jamaica restaurant I like in this area. The location is very small, only a few tables and you'll have to order with the owner who sits behind a window. My favorite thing to order is the large jerk chicken which is about $15. It comes with rice and peas, plantains, cabbage and of course the chicken. The chicken is very tender and fresh. Grilled really well and I really like the sauce on the chicken. Rice is fluffy and cabbage is pretty basic. Will always come back when I'm on this side of town .

    Dry happy to have supported a black owned local business. The customer service was great. The owner tok our orders and prepared them. The space is small inside, not big enough to eat in. But there is plenty of outside dining space. We had the oxtail, jerk chicken, golden fried chicken, and brown stew chicken dinners. As well as a beef and chicken pattie. All of the food was super fresh. The best plate that we had was the jerk chicken. The oxtail and brown stew chicken tasted more southern than authentic Jamaican. Overall the food was ok, it just wasn't what we expected from an authentic Jamaican spot. We will go back for they patties. They were delicious!

    If you drive with the windows down you wont need GPS to find this building. The smokey smell of deliciousness pumping out that old school chimney will lead you right there. Quality food at an affordable price and the taste alone will make you start looking for a cruise getaway to Jaimaica. A+

    Ordered on DoorDash, saw that this place has 4.5 stars and that had me sold. And I absolutely love eating Jamaican food! Unfortunately, I'm disappointed. The rice and peas didn't have any flavor at the very least it had salt flavor :/ the Mac and cheese had no cheese sauce it was watery. Barely taste like cheese. Taste like you were eating plain pasta. Boxed Mac is better than this. The oxtail barely had any flavor. I'm not sure how it has 4.5 stars because this is my first time having a not so good experience from a Jamaican restaurant.

    I've visited Caribbean Grill & Roti Shop (CGRT) a few times and I must admit, everything I've had…read morewas really good. Better than expected. CGRT is an NYC-style spot, the physical appearance and food quality is very authentic in that aspect. For me, the hardest part about living in Florida has finding good food spots, so CGRT gets a thumbs up in my book. The first few times I've visited CGRT, I've ordered the gyro (combo) over rice plate and the curry chicken with roti. Both are excellent. I'm not a big fan of curry chicken but theirs is one of the best I've had. The roti was very soft and tasty. The last time I visited CGRT, I ordered the jerk flavored wings with vegetable lo mein. That was really good! I honestly didn't expect much but the quantity and flavor of the food was really good. It's a spicy meal so prepare yourself, but it not over-the-top so don't worry. I'm willing to bet everything else on the menu is really good as well. I just wish they had a better drink selection. There is never more than one or two selections, which I just don't understand. Otherwise, hit up CGRT if you haven't already. You won't be disappointed.

I will be ordering again. The only reason I gave it a four due to the chicken roti not coming with any channa or pumpkin. It was weird to order a roti without those coming with it. I did come later in the evening so I appreciate still being served. The staff was friendly and the interior was not so big but still had seating.

When we arrived, our waitress mentioned she was the floor manager, but honestly she seemed to be doing every job bartender, server, running food, outside, in the kitchen she was everywhere. Because of that, we had long waits just to place orders or ask for anything we needed. I ordered the French toast with an extra side of bacon. When the food came out, they forgot my syrup. When I asked for it, someone told me I had to pay for syrup, even though I never received any in the first place. I also ordered a lychee mimosa, and it took about 20 minutes just to get the drink, which was frustrating. The bingo portion was fun, but the rounds felt spaced out about every 20-30 minutes. If you're sitting inside, the caller is hard to hear because the music continues to play, so you end up asking for numbers to be repeated. Overall, the whole experience felt unorganized. They definitely need more staff or better management during brunch events. This was my third time giving this location a chance, and unfortunately I will not be returning.

    Wow these portions!…read more What Ofcourse I got the 2 signature meals. The jerk chicken and also the fried chicken with honey. The jerk chicken, I got with rice and peas, mixed veggies and cabbage. The cabbage was a little strange to me- not as I imagined from Jamaica steamed cabbage. The mixed veggies were also basic - like boiled frozen mixed veggies. The rice and peas were overall good but tasted a little on the hard side. The chicken though! This was the highlight - it was very flavorful, though I wish I would be able to have the sauce on the side.. For the fried chicken meal - the fried chicken was nice and hot. I got this to-go and was worried it would get soggy but it still tasted great when I got home. Environment This is located in a plaza tucked away near the corner. It seems to be a more takeout restaurant. There is some seats inside for your to enjoy the food. Since it is in a plaza, there is plenty of parking available, but in front of the restaurant could be a bit tricky. Niceness of the staff I would say she was not on the nice side. No one greeted me upon entering also they seemed preoccupied and did not once gave eye-contact. Definitely not friendly.. but nonetheless I got my food. Dollar It is like the bang for your buck. I ordered via UnderEats and there are deals, it was very reasonable as you get 2 leg quarters! Yes I would definitely order takeout again

I was getting together with some friends and we ordered from Negril. Luckily, a couple of my friends are Jamaican and they helped steer me to some new faves! Food I'd highly recommend: - Brown stew chicken meal with rice and peas, fried plantain, and stewed cabbage. This dish is rich and has the potential for leftovers if you're not starving. For the uninitiated, Jamaican rice and peas consist of red kidney beans and rice that's cooked in broth, coconut milk, and tons of aromatic spices. This isn't your white rice and green peas type of situation. I could have eaten this rice on its own, but add in the brown stew sauce and WOW. Also, I love the cabbage side because it adds a vinegary note that offsets the rich stew. Note: The chicken is cut up and includes bones. - Coco bread: This is a Jamaican style bun baked with coconut milk. It's especially good when paired with a patty in the middle (yes, the coco bread around the patty! Carb heaven!). - Festival: Jamaican festival is a sweet fried dough made with cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and milk aka a dumpling. Yes this is as good as it sounds- especially for soaking up brown stew gravy! I was BLOWN away to see an entire veggie section of the menu (for online ordering) featuring soya veggie chunks (a soy based option with the consistency of chicken). That's a HUGE deal for those of us with vegetarians in the family. Overall, delicious Jamaican food that I'll definitely order again!
