Grill Mon Island, Middletown
Summary- cozy spot offering Jamaican classics. You will enjoy your experience here.
Full review- Just found out about this gem and had to try it. As a connoisseur of Caribbean cuisine it is our mission to try and review every restaurant we can in the area.
Apparently, they’ve been open for a few months but we weren’t aware. Found them on a google maps search at 5.05pm on Saturday. The listing said they closed at 5pm. On a whim called the phone number immediately and pleaded with them to stay open for pick up. The kind lady replied that she was planning to be open for another couple of hours. So I jumped in the car and headed over there quickly.
We ordered variety of dishes : Chicken jerk chicken Curry goat Oxtail
The jerk chicken was running out so we completed the order with a little bit of stew chicken.
All the dishes were very good. The rice and peas were truly special - Perhaps an extra dose of Love❤️ The Stew chicken was also outstanding. We will be ordering all these dishes again.
The location is incredibly convenient. it is on College Street literally a block from Main Street.
Middletown is emerging us a culinary destination, and this lovely cozy Jamaican spot really elevates the game.

Depending on the time of day they might be out of something but they’re very accommodating and will let you know when they can restock. There have been a few times where they’re closed despite their posted hours but overall, great new spot in Middletown for...
