    Jerk Beef Stew over Red Peas & Rice
    Richard H.

    Last night's meal was from Royale Cafe near downtown Jacksonville. This hidden gem has killer Caribbean food that has just the perfect amount of spice even the wimpy tastebuds out there. When I seen they were serving up a Jerk Beef Stew as yesterday's special, my mind was set on my dinner plans. If you live or work nearby and have a craving for Caribbean, please do yourself a favor and stop in and don't forget to tell them Big Rich sent ya!

    Very tasty. Quick and friendly service. I love the Jamaican Jerk chicken with yellow rice & cabbage.

    Yum!!! You want to taste the island? Come here, I promise, you will feel transported to Jamaica…read morewith the first bite! I came in straight from work, got 1 plate of jerk chicken and some Pattie's.... Wound up taking another plate home so the family could enjoy as well. The jerk chicken is so tender and perfectly seasoned and chargrilled. The restaurant is got an island vibe with some island music playing in the background (not to loud, but just enough to finish the vibe of being transported with every bite. I swear... if this place was beachfront or like it's own standing building with an outdoor tropical place... you would definitely think you got transported. It's super clean including the bathrooms. The owner is filled with joy everytime I saw someone walk in/leave. My server was Lucy (she's also a bartender there), if you go.. ask for Lucy (she work the later part of the week), tell her Trisha recommended her With the quality of food, the cleanliness of the restaurant, the amazing service that I received today... this place is going to be a neighborhood favorite without a doubt!

    Ordered an Oxtail platter, brown stew chicken, plantains & a beef patty, the only thing that was…read moretruly edible was the plantains. The beef patty was badly burned and the oxtail and brown chicken smelled spoiled as if they had let the food sit out for longer than it should and then heated it up and served it the smell and taste was overwhelming so as I took a closer look I saw white spots on the oxtail that looked as if mold may have began growing. not to mention the flavor was not there at all and overall I just would not recommend this place

    I dropped in here for lunch today. I was greeted right away (it is unusual to be greeted in a…read morefriendly way in Jamaica restaurants normally LOL) and given a menu--and I already knew I wanted a lunch special with jerk chicken, based on the web site. There was island music playing in the background to set the vibe, along with a map of the Caribbean at every table. My jerk chicken came out quickly and was delicious. The plantains were the perfect consistency, which is important to me because some places dry them out. I asked for a side of pepper sauce and it's quite hot, so consider yourself warned! While I was dining, the owner, Peter, came over and was chatting with the patrons. The ladies at the next table clearly knew him well, and I love that there are local relationships at the restaurant. It was fascinating hearing about his transition from the finance industry in Trinidad to being a restaurant entrepreneur! I only wish I had had had space to try the rum cake. It would be a joy to come back to Irie Diner and support a local business!

    Stumbled across this delicious restaurant on my lunch break and when I say, I am coming back for…read morebreakfast and dinner you need to make sure you're there as well. Great service from the staff and felt very welcomed as if I was vacation to the islands. I ordered the brown STEW chicken bowl for lunch and he came with rice and beans and I chose cabbage. Everything was delicious. Very authentic taste and I completed my entire bowl. The inside was very nice. There's a bar area and a lot of seating.
