This place is the spot for Jamaican food! We ordered a couple things and everything was amazing. - Braised oxtail: this was the standout for me. super soft, fall off the bone tendernism. love that the worker put more of the meat juices on the rice and peas too. it also came with cabbage on the side. - Jerk chicken burger: the plantains and the coleslaw!! and the chicken was super flavorful. - Kale salad: very fresh and light. the fruit and the dressing just went so well together. The owner Ryan was also on the grill in the back and was really friendly. Def coming back if I'm ever in the area. read more

RyRy’s Kitchen - Jerk chicken burger (left), braised oxtail (top), kale salad (bottom) - Caribbean Near Me - Jamaica, New York

This is a tiny Caribbean kitchen spot in Jamaica, Queens. They are serving up a nice mix of classic Jamaican dishes along with some healthy salads, soups, and interesting options like coconut rice. Large orders can expect a longer wait time so order those in advance! Rasta Pasta with Shrimp 9/10 The pasta is creamy and a little bit more than al dente which I like. There was a lot of shrimp and it was seasoned perfectly and cooked just enough so that it stayed moist and tender! Rasta Pasta with Salmon 9/10 This is an excellent deal for salmon and pasta! The salmon is soft, fresh, with sweet sauce to complement the savory flavor. It's a perfect mix of healthy and heavy food. Curry Goat 9/10 Perfectly spiced, savory with medium curry strength and the meat was super soft and falling off the bone. Soup of the day 8/10 This is an excellent chicken soup. The broth is thick and savory. The chicken is falling off the bone. Chunks of potato and carrot to top it off. Lots of flavor! Jerk Chicken Sandwich 8/10 It's spicy and reasonably priced and it comes with some slaw. I think it could be dressed up a bit but it's good. Kale Salad 8/10 It's a healthy and delicious mix of greens and veggies like cucumber, tomato, mango, corn. Braised Slow Cooked Oxtail (Large) 7/10 I'll have to try this again because when I got it, the oxtail wasn't falling off the bone like I expected. I think it needed more time in the slowcooker. It also needed some more spice. Yard Style Jerk Chicken (Large) w/ rice and peas 7/10 The chicken is juicy with mild spice and the container was packed but I think the rice and peas was dry. The coconut white rice is better. Plantains were great. read more

Viewed this restaurant on DoorDash & saw that they made deliveries, so I took it upon myself to order. I've heard & seen good reviews about this place so I figured I'd give it a try. So disclaimer my review is strictly based on an online order. I haven't visited this establishment in person so I can't speak on service or presentation. But now on to the food... I ordered their infamous jerk chicken sandwich & oxtail Rasta pasta. So for starters the sandwich appearance wise looked sloppy. It gave sloppy joe & my food was cold. Now for the taste it did not wow me. Jerk chicken was flavor less & bland did not taste like authentic jerk chicken should. I did like the Cole slaw but that was it. The sandwich was dry too. Now as for the oxtail the meat was tough & not tender as I'd like it to be. I also did not receive much meat, I was given bones. Which is unfortunate bc a lot of ppl spoke about how great ry ry food is esp their oxtail. But I can make better oxtail than this. The pasta was good but its pasta if you mess that up, you shouldn't be in the kitchen. So furthermore I was very disappointed I was not impressed by meals, I will not be ordering again in the future. read more

The salmon and Rasta pasta had flavor. The chicken didn't taste like much and was dry. It was sitting in a heated dish so that's just the nature of the beast. The service was pleasant and helpful. read more

I've decided to have RyRy's again recently. Even though my last experience here wasn't the best. It occurred to me that the laughable portion sizes in my last unsatisfactory UBER EATS order a while back, could've possibly been due to my food being tampered with AKA "Snacked on" by the driver prior to delivering it. My most recent order was great, no complaints. Food was tasty and portions were good. In addition, RYRY's has now implemented tamper-proof paper shopping bags that are stapled!! I LOVE this!! I soooo look forward to ordering from RYRY's again! read more

I came here earlier this month for lunch. I heard about RyRy's via TikTok. I didn't inquire about the jerk chicken sandwich that went viral. I let my eyes decide. I had the sweet chili wings and rice. They were crispy sweet and not too spicy. The meat was also fresh and well cooked. I hate when wings are fried too hard. The oxtail and Rasta pasta looked really good but I wasn't that hungry One chooses what they want from a steam table. I will definitely be back to try more dishes. My food was packed to go but I remained in the dining room / food court. It was a little noisy but ok. This place feels like a hidden gem because it isn't on the main strip or Jamaica Avenue read more

I decided to pick this for our company weekly lunch. This was the spot I been hearing about. First off. I want to say this is probably one of the BEST places I've ever eaten. The cook did not skimp on the portions and the flavors were spot on! The infamous Ryry's Jerk Chicken Burger with that slaw. OMG! instantly melts in your mouth! That jerk seasoning was perfect! When people tell you the juices run down your mouth at first bite. THEY DON'T LIE! I can probably eat 5 of these no problem! The Ox Tail was tender and thick cut. I don't know about you but I usually don't order this cause in other places they skimp on the meats or give you these thin ass slices or it's so salted that you need to dive into water just to wash it out of your mouth. But NOT here! Again. SEASONED well, cooked perfectly. Fall off the bone but not where it instantly melts. Got that tender bite to it which I love. Definitely recommend. Only thing I would side note is that I thought the Large would be in the round tin foil? but that's just on me. Was still a good amount. I always wanted to try the rasta pasta. I can't honestly can't compare it to anyone else. Since this is a first for me. But if Rasta Pasta be tasting this GOOD. I for sure will be getting that more often! Hats off to the chef! Cause Jamaica Queens don't know they got themselves a gold mine over here. Price is affordable, food is good. Don't see that often these days. I am an instant fan to this spot! read more

Really disappointed. I ordered a small Rasta pasta with curry goat. The pasta was ok, nothing special. And the flavor of the goat was pretty good but it was sooo hard to eat. It was not trimmed properly and it made most of it inedible. So I basically paid $15 for pasta with gravy read more

Hi, so this is my first time leaving a review for a restaurant on Yo today I went and ordered curry goat and some shrimp now the shrimp was very flavorful very spicy and very good. I love it and it was in a nice amount container for $10 but the curry goat which was about $14 was a bit bland not spicy and did not have the greatest flavor And now I have had curry goat from a bunch of places, but specifically this place I would not definitely order this. I feel like I should've went with the jerk chicken from the previous review, but that is OK. Other than that I do feel like the flavor could be more great in the food. Service was good and I did like the ambience. The portions was not bad but I do feel like the flavor could be great in some of the other dishes I would love to try again for a different meal and see how everything goes. Thank you very much. read more

I first learned of RyRy's from their Taste of Queens booth at CitiField and all I can say is that their Jerk Chicken Sandwich is the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. A must try if you're at CitiField. The slaw on top went well with the chicken. So that led me to try RyRy's on Grubhub for lunch on my work for home day. I ordered jerk chicken empanadas, Caribbean shrimp tacos and the oxtails rice and peas. They ran out of empanadas and tacos. And no substitution was offered. The food was delicious and will have to give RyRy's a try in person. read more

Today I used Yelp to search up local restaurants since I'm in Jamaica, Queens, and this was recommended in the search. It did not disappoint. I ordered rice and peas with jerk chicken, veggies and ox tail gravy. By far the most tastiest rice and peas I've had the steam veggies has more than cabbage, which included kale, parrots snow peas cabbage, and it was seasoned well. I got the rice and peas with ox take gravy and the grave was very flavorful too. The chicken was a little on the drier side, and a little chewy, and could have been cooked more, (it wasn't undercook), it's just want not falling off the bone, but still had a good amount of flavor. This Jamaican rest is not in my top 3 of Jamaican food. read more

One of my friends is absolutely obsessed with this place - so much so that she's here just about every week, a few times a week. Naturally, I must find out for myself what the hype is about. ...I ended up ordering from RyRy's 3 times in the past 2 weeks. I finally see why she's so obsessed because now, I am too. It didn't take me long to find my go-to order: oxtails with rasta pasta. I'm in love with possibly the most expensive item on their menu but I must say, my food has been pretty consistent thus far: always served hot, perfectly seasoned, and very filling. It's certainly my type of comfort food. During my most recent visit this week, I realized that I actually have, in fact, been here before - there's a photo on my phone from last year and from the looks of it, they used to offer oxtails in small but now it's only available in medium and large. I wish they would bring the small portion size back because I honestly can never finish the medium and because I hate wasting food (especially good food). But in conclusion, I do love Ryry's Kitchen and will continue to show my support! read more

The food here is seasoned and cooked to perfection. The chicken falls off the bone and it's not too spicy. The counter person serving the food is expectedly rude. I believe it's a culture thing to be disrespectful with patrons because she's not the first rude Jamaican person I've encountered in restaurants. I will still come back for the food and so should you but don't be surprised by their behavior and take it personally. It's not you! read more

They always have good, hot food! The service is excellent and the price is reasonable.

My friend and I ordered their rasta pasta with shrimp and oxtail for delivery off GrubHub (I wanted to try their mac and cheese balls but they were unfortunately out). We both agreed that the rasta pasta tasted different than other rasta pastas we have had but that it was yummy. I also thought the oxtail was good and the portion is definitely enough for 2 meals at least. I also enjoyed the side of plantains that came with it. read more

First time getting food from them. Honestly the first time I ordered(via Doordash) a month ago they ran out of oxtails and cancelled my order. This time I ordered Oxtails, Jerk Chicken Empanadas and Mac & Cheese via Seamless to pickup. They cancelled the jerk and Mac. Pretty disappointing. But besides that the oxtail were meaty and flavorful. The sauce tasted tomatoey which was fine. Rice & Peas were fine as was the cabbage. Id get food again I just need them to either have food advertised or edit their online menus to what they actually have. read more

The food is so good. I work in the area and hate the food that's around here, horrible quality food... but no RyRy's kitchen. The food is so good and fresh. You can tell they make it with love and fresh ingredients. I got the jerk chicken sandwich which was the best jerk chicken sandwich I've ever had. I also had the jerk chicken salad. That salad motivated me to write this review. The Salad was full of flavor, fresh and I was pleasantly surprised. The mango vinaigrette for the salad is delicious and light. The salad will fill you up without making you feel horrible afterwards. I would highly recommend their food. read more

Well, definitely disappointing. Traveled for more than an hour to try their curry goat and oxtail because i saw an influencer and was impressed with his plate and when i ordered it my plate was 80% rice and 20% meat, nowhere near the plate of the influencer i saw. The curry goat needed more flavor and the meat was tough, full of bones. Oxtail was not bad but meat was tough too. If you're traveling from afar to try this, might not be worth it. read more

Tasty af! And friendly staff!! The pasta is on point!! Would definitely go back!! Asap!!

the service is horrible you can't communicate well for only decent food and horrible prices is ridiculous why use staff for delivery if it's proven unreliable why accept orders if you can't deliver the food. read more

Wow! They opened a place! I used their catering services earlier this year. Left me yearning for their food! So I am not from town but had a fund raising catering event and the original caterers bailed on us last minute after months of figuring out the menu!! So was referred to RyRys and boy was I happy the other idiots failed me. What a professional group! With an awesome display of amazing food! On time. On point with recommendations. Even saved us $$ Also, we had some special VEGAN needs. Seriously the vegan folks were in disbelief the curry pasta was vegan! Honestly it was too good to be true that I had to go back to the Chef and confirm myself. Loved the whiskey garlic wings and curry goat empanadas! And the jerk salmon, veggies and rice and peas blew my mind!! I can't wait for my July trip to NY!!! This gets in my NY favorite bookmark! read more

Just NO! I just finished eating some of my order of Oxtail with rice and Peas. Lets start off with the customer service. When I first saw the menu, I was already iffy, because why are the prices not listed? I asked the young lady at the register if they had a menu with the prices, she said yes but the prices listed aren't the prices for the food. Umm, ok so what are the prices?? If you know Jamaican food, you know the rule is that if their customer service is horrible, the food will be amazing. Here however, the customer service was bad, yet the food was just ok. Idk what the other reviewers are speaking of, which makes me think they either had an off day or they may be friends of the owner, but my 3 pieces of oxtail and 5lbs or rice for $20 was not it. It was lacking flavor and was somewhat rubbery. Never again. I'll stick to my usual spot on 164th and Hillside! read more

Food is absolutely delish! My favorite place to go in Jamaica. It's authentic, fresh, and spicy. The sweet chili salmon is my go to and the honey garlic is always amazing. You can taste the love they put into their meals. Plus, you're always greeted with a smile. Such a nice addition to the Avenue. read more

Went in there and the staff was friendly. Especially the owner. The food was delicious. I ordered Jerk Chicken, Chick pea rice, and some plantains. You get to choose between large, medium, and small. I ordered medium and had a very refreshing Jamaican soft drink to go with it. The total was $17. I didn't like the tip option when I paid because that's only a privilege to that should be given to waiters or waitresses. Cashiers don't have to put in the same level of effort as waiters or waitresses, so it feels like a scam to even pay them a tip. The only other disappointment was the lack of macaroni and cheese. After a certain time they stop serving it. I inquired with the owner and he said that it's a tough item to get. I responded to him by saying that business owners don't look for excuses, they make things happen. All items should be available to the customers for as long as the store hours are open. I would definitely consider coming here again though. read more
