Jerkman BBQ — Restaurant in Orlando

Honestly the best food I have eaten since I have been back to Florida. Two pieces of advice though. Order ahead or order for delivery. There's only one booth in the place, and the place was packed. Wasn't sure about where the line was, so look for the order window and see who is standing there with a receipt in hand. We stood behind people who had already ordered for a few minutes till we figured it out. Also it is lacking AC, not sure if it's just not there or it was broken... but it was hot. We got a 5 piece wing with jerk fries and a 5 piece shrimp with regular fries. I think we waited about an hour or so. As there was nowhere to dine in, had to drive the 45 minutes home. I was worried that the food would be soggy, especially the jerk fries. Let me tell you. They were freaking delicious. I bet if I was closer I would order twenty times more often. The jerk fries and wings were so good. The portion was good too, especially for the price. Better than a lot of places where you might want to order two meals because you're still hungry. The combination of seasoning was so good. The portion of meat that came on the jerk fries was not skimpy either. The lady at the counter was friendly and efficient despite the line and the heat. Disappointed they didn't have any mac and cheese when I went, but all the more reason to go again. I also saw their juices in the cooler after the fact and wouldn't mind trying a few of them. Definitely a must try and a must return in my book. I'd give them an 8 out of 5 if Google would let me....

I wish I could give this higher stars, because the BBQ is decent, on occasion. I've ordered from them a total of 3 times, and love their BBQ spin with Jamaican jerk. It's fantastic. However, each time I've received their food, I get different experiences. Once the food was damn near perfect, fries was crispy, seasoned, chicken proportionally cut, packaged well and drizzled in their jerk sauce generously. Heck, I wish their was an option to add extra sauce it's that good. But the other two times, the fries came luke warm, soggy, and not even seasoned smfh. Like how did that happen???? And the chicken came not proportionally cut, which not only made it awkward to eat, but there was a lack of sauce due to that over sight. Now the only thing that is consistent, is the fact that when you order the delivery, the food is shipped with no way to safeguard the order. It's not in a special bag that prevents delivery drivers from opening it, the bags aren't taped or anything. I would at the BARE MINIMUM believe the food container would be stapled shut like many other restaurants do, but nope, that's not true either. The food is just simply as is. Open to whatever, and whoever is delivering it to you. So the bare minimum isn't even being met. It's really a let down. So if your afraid strange delivery drivers may be able to tamper with your food, then this location isn't really for you unless your willing and able to go get it yourself. I hope they do better in the near future, because the BBQ chicken is...

My husband and I were on our way to Dennys in Winter Garden as we were passing the West Oak Mall I suggested I heard about this Jerkman. My hubby stated I'd rather try his spot on Ivey Lane. Welp! He made the turn into the Mall and the rest is history.

I loved everything about this place. The cashier was so pleasant and professional. The Jerkman was actually out front, greeting his customers. To me that says "He stands by his product"! The food was sensational. I have never heard of Jerk fries. My husband and I didn't order them initially and looked at other folks with the Jerk fries and got back in line to order. They are exceptional. It's really a meal in itself. The ribs and chicken jump came right off the bone. Our mouths and tastebuds are soooooo happy. Don't hesitate go see "THE JERKMAN" With all the spots that are left and there aren't many, He was popping. Constant steady line of people eager to order a platter of his food. It's a nice set up and you will feel safe. I wouldn't probably go at night I'm sure it would probably get a little rowdy. It's so disappointing to see how the WEST OAK mall has fell apart, but the JERKMAN gives this place LIFE. Trust me try it at least once. You will be back. I love his demeanor and appreciative attitude towards his guest. A black business that will go far with this type of amazing customer...
