Sooo being that I have very experienced and diverse palette to a verity of cuisines, i belive i can speak on this without fear or doubt....let's begin!
I ordered the jerk chicken combo that came with peas and rice, plantains,and cabbage. I also added a beef and curry chicken patty. I've eaten plenty of jerk chicken and smoked chicken as well. This was not or did not taste like jerk chicken. It was extra smokey and that was it. The flavor was bland and just tasted like it was slow smoked and that's it. There was no real flavor other than that. It did fall right off the bone but that was not what I was looking for in particular. The cook came out and said they were out of the normal jerk chicken, and the cashier said just throw some of the jerk chicken breast's in there. I was thinking that would be fine but when I got it they gave me some jerk wings instead. That was not what I ordered nor what they offered. I wasn't happy but I was ready to leave so whatever. After being unsatisfied with the overpowering smoked chicken, the peas and rice was good. The plantains were very tasty and sweet, very contrasting to the meal overall. I don't eat cabbage so I gave it away. The curry chicken patty was very good and made me wish I had gotten that as my meal...but I couldn't because they were out of white rice. We all know that you can't eat curry with peas and rice. The beef patty was confusing, I couldn't tell if it was beef or beans. I had a very underwhelming experience at a time when I wanted some bumping Jamaican food. If I decide to go back, I have to get the curry and if that's not any better I'll be super disappointed. Look on the bright side.... the portions of the...
Read moreAs a truck driver, it can be difficult at times to find a place that has good food and space to accommodate my truck. Yesterday I found such place at K&S Jerk Shop. I stopped in only to purchase lunch and be on my way. The ambiance is very welcoming and calming, the cashiers were very pleasant. After explaining I was visiting their restaurant for the first time, I asked the gentleman what he recommends. He said the jerk chicken, pork, and oxtail; are a favourite amongst their customers. I went with two of his recommendations. I purchased the jerk chicken for myself, the jerk pork for my husband who eats pork, two beef patties for a friend, macaroni n cheese (recommended by the female cashier), four drinks, and duplex cookies which I haven't seen since I was a child. The food was made fresh, not heated by the microwave, and it was delicious. I took the jerk chicken home and my husband asked where did I purchased it, I told him he said to go back today and get some more (The Rastaman there said he knows my husband will love it and he was right). The gentleman who I got the patties for asked where I found such good patties, I told him he also plans on stopping by as well. Thank you for a very pleasant experience. Your food speaks for itself, this will be our new spot. God bless each of you...
Read moreI came in around 5:00pm and placed a order for a curry shrimp and a jerk chicken and 2 patties with a young lady at the counter. I waited about 15-20 minutes for the yo go order. When I got to the counter the young lady showed me the food so I told and the order was wrong. So I repeated what my order was to her. She immediately went to the kitchen to tell the owner/cook. She then came back out so I showed her my receipt. She said she thought she heard me say curry chicken. So I told her you put the correct order on the receipt and it was fine. This was not the issue…. The owner/cook came out and asked me what the problem was. I told him I ordered shrimp and jokingly said he needed to throw in a extra patty. He told the young lady to put the patties back that I ordered. He then told me that the shrimp was coming in 2 minutes or if I wanted to eat it RAW. Instead of apologizing or trying to de-escalate and make me feel better for waiting 30 minutes for an order that your staff member/ daughter got wrong. I just stayed calm and shook my head because it’s just food and not worth the headache because his approach told me how unprofessional he was. I’m apart of a large women’s social media group and could easily put him on blast. Now I have to go home and property reheat my food so I...
