Great food! THE BEST IN BIRMINGHAM the food use to be spicy but it's now being less spicy

I chose this place because it's close to miles college and had a good rating. I knew I made an amazing choice when I smelled the food just pulling in to park. The food was amazing and they are not stingy! I also had a beef patty and coco bread that didn't make it out of the parking lot. read more

Tasty Jamaica - Brown stew, macaroni, and cabbage - Fairfield, Alabama

The food came out piping hot. I got the oxtails, brown stew chicken, cabbage, plantains, macaroni and cheese. It was a little pricey but definitely worth every penny. Oxtails melt in your mouth and the texture was tender and juicy. The sides didn't disappoint either. Everything was amazing and I'll be back to try other items on the menu. I didn't get rice and peas because it is considered a side on the menu. Most Caribbean restaurants give rice and peas with the meat but still a great experience altogether. Last but not least, the peach fruit punch is a true banger to wash down all the deliciousness 10 out of 10 read more

The first time I tried jerk chicken was in Jamaica so this chicken was up against some competition. Not as good as the jerk chicken in Jamaica but it was still delicious. It came with two kinds of sauce. The sweet sauce complimented the chicken so well. The other sauce was a little to spicy for me. I will definitely be returning. read more

Tasty Jamaica - Tasty Jamaica - Fairfield, Alabama

This place is SMALL but MIGHTY. It is hands down THE BEST JAMAICAN FOOD in Birmingham. It's so full of flavor, spice, and flare. The owner Bernard is the sweetest guy. He was so welcoming and let me sample a few things on the menu. Everything I tried was good: the turkey neck, brown stew chicken, etc. He puts so much love into this food. He's all about quality above anything else and he delivers on that promise. I got the jerk chicken which was falling off the bone. I'd put his jerk chicken sauce on just about anything. I'd probably drink it for breakfast LOL It is THAT good. The depth of flavor is sickening. I didn't think cabbage could have as much flavor as he infused into his. The rice and peas aren't your mamas rice and peas, I'll tell you that. If you don't give this a try, you're truly missing out on a hidden gem. read more
