I am beyond excited to have authentic Jamaican food in bucks county. This place is a true gem and I hope they stick around for a while. (Located in Oxford valley mall food court) I ordered a large oxtail with cabbage and rice & peas. DELICIOUS. Lots of meat on the oxtail. I'm hoping to try the curry goat & jerk chicken next time I go. The prices are definitely fair, good food doesn't come cheap.

Jerk chicken, rice/peas, steamed cabbage

Good food. Enjoyed everything, tried the jerk chicken plate with rice/peas & steam cabbage. Thought all of these items were delicious and went well together. My one major gripe is the chicken parts were cracked in such a way that it was very difficult to get a bite of chicken without catching shrapnel. I think some people would have left a much lower review based on this, but it did not deter me from enjoying my meal. I do think this is easily avoidable though and should seriously be addressed as someone could Crack a tooth or worse. The shard ranged in size from tiny maybe a few millimeter in length to a half inch.

If you are looking for something a little different to eat, I strongly suggest stopping by the Lighthouse Jamaican restaurant. Don't let the fact that they're located at the food court in the Oxford Valley Mall sway your decision. You'll be greeted by the friendly smile of Rachel, the owner and chef, when you arrive. On my first visit, I was inclined to order the Jerk Chicken but ended up ordering the Curry Goat with brown rice and beans along with some cabbage. WOW was I glad I did as it was amazing. So much so that I came back 2 days later and tried the Oxen which was also delicious (however I preferred the goat). I strongly recommend this spot for a relaxing meal in the food court or to take out.

Cassava Leaf
Feedme B.

This cassava leaf was cooked to perfection, stopped by this spot while I was in the mall because I'll not Liberian but I love Liberian food . . I highly recommend, I'll be back. Staff was also very friendly!! Food was fresh

Jerk Pork, Rice n' Peas and cabbage.
Shantelle C.

The food is delicious. Jerk pork, rice and peas and cabbage. Delicious. True jerk flavor so yes spicy but succulent. We look forward to returning to trying other items on the menu.

I think your food is so good. I love the Casoli rice and the oxtail. It's one of the most best restaurants I've ever been to.

Stewed chicken was incredible!!

Best meal I've had in bucks county in a while. The food and flavors were incredible. Stewed chicken and curried chicken were so delicious. Can't wait to go back!!!

Mama Lune’s Jamaican Grill - Small jerk chicken, rice& peas with sweet plantains

What a welcomed surprise!…read more We were craving some authentic Jamaican food and as per, Yelp didn't disappoint. We placed an online order for pickup (no dining in) and within about 3 minutes the owner (Orville) called us and alerted us that the steamed fish can take about 25 minutes. This helped us plan our trip, and we greatly appreciated it! We ordered the Jerk Chicken, Curry Chicken, and the Steamed Fish. We selected rice and beans/peas for our starchy sides and green beans for our vegetables. And we threw in an order of Fried Plantains (I cannot pass them up EVER). The restaurant is small and immaculately clean. I had the pleasure of chatting with Orville while he completed my to-go order. I love a hands-on business owner who genuinely cares about his product. The aromas were making my stomach growl, and I couldn't wait to get home to dig in! The portions were huge, and this made my day, as I love having lunch options for the next day (and the day following!). Everything was piping hot and sensational. You know how you can tell when food is made with love? Well, our dishes were created with extra helpings. SO GOOD. The restaurant is located in a strip mall with ample parking. There is nothing worse than circling the block and trying to find street parking...not so here! We are so thankful for having found this little gem!

Came here several months ago. It was not worth it... 1. I…read morewaited over 40 minutes for my food, even though it was just me and one other the person in line. 2. The food didn't have much flavor. How can you mess up jerk chicken at a Jamaican establishment? 3. It was pretty expensive for long awaited, kind-of-bland food. 4. They gave me the wrong side. I ordered takeout so I did not discover this mistake until after I got home. So disappointing and underwhelming.

Welp! What a disappointment. My family and I frequent this restaurant quite often when we are in…read morethe mood for Jamaican cuisine. This time was not that great. I ordered the meals via door dash pickup online and when I told the staff my order they had difficulty finding my order. That was the first issue. Before I could get the full word "door dash" out she blurted out that they did not confirm the order as if it was a delivery order. The next issue was that they ran out of jerk chicken. The man told me that there is some cooking in the oven and that it would be ready in 5 minutes. I was cool with that. At least I knew the food would be fresh. Problem! He lied the jerk chicken would not be ready in 5 min instead it was ready in 45 min. I should have cancelled my order and asked for a refund but I continued to wait. There were no apologies for the wait time or the rude customer service. When I got home to begin eating I noticed that they did not give us a substantial portion of meet. It was mainly bones. I felt like I definitely got ripped off. Also, I think they changed the recipe of the sauce for the jerk chicken because it was really sweet and tangy instead of being spicy. I don't think I will be back unfortunately. This is not the first time that I have had a bad experience at this restaurant. Whether its them running out of food, order not being ready for pickup, or bad customer service..it is always something. It is time to find another local Jamaican restaurant in the area. If you have any recommendations please send them my way! Cheers!

Have no idea how we never tried La Casona in the years my spouse worked nearby or how we missed it…read morein Yelp searches. Well we fixed that as of last night and wow did we have a tasty experience. Bryan, our server, made sure we were ordering in the best way possible to ensure our return trip. So many tasty dishes to choose from and we had both narrowed down to two which Bryan explained and guided us on. Ironically my dish per a Google AI search was the most enjoyed dish. Funny, AI can now even help summarize all the Google reviews and to distill it down for us in seconds. So on this Friday evening after work, here's what we ordered... we start off with a mango margarita which we shared and this was over ice not frozen in a properly salted glass and boy did it taste awesome. We started off with an appetizer of the.Pastelillos Boricuas (3 pieces), it was for us cooked to perfection. It was not over fried. The meat was tender. It was tasty. It was. The crust was soft, even though it had some crispness to it, and I would absolutely start with these again. For our mains, my wife had the Ropa Vienna Platter and she absolutely loved it and reminded her of her time down in Miami for school and getting local Cuban or Caribbean or Puerto Rican food and this just hit it for her. For me I followed my Google AI search... The standout, highly-rated dish at La Casona Restaurante & Bar in Hamilton is their Trifongo. Customers rave about this signature item, often ordered with Churrasco A La Criolla (skirt steak in a flavorful Creole sauce). This came in a wooden round bowl at first I thought it was a coconut shell. It was absolutely delicious moist tender tasty. Our whole dinner experience met exactly with what I was looking for when I told my wife I'm tired of our usual restaurants. I wanna try something different. I don't know what it is but it's a food group that we don't eat or don't eat often and that's how we found La Casona. They have a bar. There's a huge parking lot outback indoor outdoor dining. It's perfect for romantic night out for two as well as large groups. Note they have different pricing for cash paying versus credit card. Staff super friendly courteous the place is immaculately clean, and the food was scrumptious.

I believe we've ordered from here for office events, and we went for dinner one night as a group,…read moreand all of it has been great experience - the food and the service. It's a relatively unassuming space; we went during the week, so it wasn't super crowded, but we had a good time there together. I can't recall exactly what I ordered, but the shared items and drinks and food were all delicious, and I would be down to return! Hope to order again from them in the future, or to visit again!

Manje translates to "eat," so I'd say the mission is pretty clear!…read more A Haitian restaurant in this part of Pennsylvania? Completely unexpected. But what was even more unexpected was just how good it was. Being Haitian American, this is the food I grew up on. It's the cuisine I'm most familiar with, so I don't say this lightly: Manje might be the highest-quality Haitian restaurant I've ever been to. The snapper was top-tier elite. Seasoned perfectly, fried perfectly, and honestly just one of those dishes where you take a bite and immediately know they know what they're doing. I made the rookie mistake of coming in right before closing, so they were out of a few things--including the black rice. But that white rice? Better than 90% of the rice I've probably ever had. Haitians make the best rice. I'm willing to die on that hill. And what made this visit even more memorable was that it wasn't just about the food. The dining space was really nice, and the customer service was excellent. And if you know Haitian restaurants, you know I'm saying a LOT when I point that out. Manje is honestly everything I wish I had in my local town. Great food, a beautiful space, welcoming service, and a menu centered around a cuisine that's near and dear to my heart. An absolute must-stop if you're anywhere near West Chester and looking for Haitian food. Manje understood the assignment.

Solid food and friendly service. Good portion size, and the food was fresh…read more Not the bets you'll have, but probably the best you can find in the area, which is a bit of a desert for great Caribbean food.
