Mandatory Ting!

Recently reopened and this was my first visit after having driven by many times. Very clean interior, clean and organized presentation of the food. Friendly and welcoming staff. I've actually been twice now, so I've tried the jerked chicken and the curried chicken. Both were very tasty and served with generous portions. I enjoyed the rice and peas and the gravy was surprisingly great, also the steamed veggies were very good. I've tried a couple of the patties, but I don't love them. Parking is tight and tough, especially at lunch. They were out of the bbq and conch soup on my second visit, but the menu is rotating based on availability. They are working hard here and I recommend giving them a try.

Jerk BBQ chicken mini lunch

Tender chicken, plenty of flavor and generous veggies! The mini chicken lunch from 11 am to 3 pm is a steal at $5 for a full lunch of a chicken leg, rice and vegetables. The jerk BBQ is tender and vinegary, while the sweet and spicy was intensely spicy yet fragrant. Beef patty ($2.50) is flaky and delicious. Will be back!

Beef patty. I only eat fish and chicken. Waste of money.

Placed a Uber delivery and received the wrong item. They did not call me to make a decision with my own order. Ruined my mood. Poor customer service from the person answering the phone.

Small Jerk Chicken plate to go w veggie and rice and beans. So good!!!
Max G.

Had the small jerk chicken plate with rice n beans And veggies. Wow was it tasty. I'd say the best Jamaican food I've had in Massachusetts. The chicken was rich, juicy and flavorful. The jerk has a very potent and tasty blend of spices. It is also quite spicy once you finish eating, it creeps up on you. The small portion was huge, but I guess it should be for 9$. The chicken deff had bones and a good amount of small ones so I know some people wouldn't like that, but it adds to the flavor. The veggies were also very good, almost like a slow stewed collard green, but maybe w some other veggies and chopped up, a good side to cut the spicy meat. I will certainly be back for more jerk chicken plates.

So happy to have found this amazing place. The portions are very generous and the jerk chicken has a slow spice that builds and builds.

I went to the new location in Stoughton and the woman was so rude. I quietly walked out-never going back.

This place is good enough to thrive without even having a sign. Jamaican patties, jerk chicken, pork and curry dishes are great.

Jamaica Mi Hungry - Pulled Jerk Pork entree with sides of Mac N' Cheese and Brussel Sprouts

This place is great. Came here on a saturday around opening time and got served right away! There's…read morea good amount of seating in the restaurant and it filled up a bit more by noon. I got the jerk chicken with fried plantains and rice. The sides were freaking amazing. The fried plantains were so crispy and I could eat them all day. The rice was also delicious because it was a little sweet and had some coconut flavor too. The jerk chicken itself was great. It was more of a saucy jerk chicken instead of a dry rub, but it tasted really tender and flavorful. It was a little pricey for $~18, but I think it's worth it. It was a lot of food and I ended up having leftovers to take home for dinner. A few days later, and I still craved that chicken, plantain, and coconut rice combo. Can't wait to go back!

Went to an event catered by Jamaica Mi Hungry earlier this year and it was FANTASTIC! Every single…read moredish was delicious and incredibly well seasoned. Some highlights: Garlic shrimp - these were huge and juicy with the perfect amount of garlic flavor. Having this on the rice and beans was heaven on a place and I had several helpings of this! Chicken - this was a little spicy for me, but that's just a personal preference. I could tell that this was well seasoned and people more tolerant to spice would love this - the chicken was still juicy and saucy. This also pairs well with the rice and beans! Plantains - nothing over the top but a nice sweeter bite to balance out the plate. Yummy! Mac n cheese - this was one I wasn't super crazy about - I think a bit more cheese would have been nice here but it wasn't a bad bite. All in all, 4/5 as there were some dishes that didn't blow me away, but the garlic shrimp with the rice and beans is to die for. Would happily have this again or go to the food truck location to order it!

The only Filipino restaurant near Boston (that I know of) and it shares space with a Jamaican…read morerestaurant. I hate that this is too far from where I live because I wish their dinuguan (pork blood soup) is accessible. Same with their lechon kawali sisig. I've been going to this place multiple times and I always have a set of things I order. Every. Damn. Time. They're really savory and almost tastes like home. I love looking at the menu and deciding to order the same thing I get. The staff are friendly and it never hurts hearing Filipino language being spoken in Greater Boston Area (actually it does because it makes me homesick lol). I would love this place to get more staff though. I feel like it's popular and there are many people who would line up and wait for their orders so service could take some time. But I love how this restuarant really reminds me home!

I enjoyed my chicken inasal (Filipino-style grilled chicken) meal and halo-halo (mix-mix)…read moresnack/dessert. My husband really liked his very first Jamaican patty (he got the last chicken patty). This place is a gem. Wish there was better parking but I was glad to get some exercise. Staff were friendly. Prices were reasonable. Food was of good quality. I was interested in trying the oxtail meal but it was $25 so I opted for something else. It was lunch time when we got there and they weren't that busy. There was a group where there was a toddler who was being loud and obnoxious. I know the staff wasn't responsible for something like that but if was disruptive to other customers and the mother or guardian was clearly not doing anything about it, I think staff should gently remind the party that they should be considerate to other customers.
