Lawddd, last week in South Florida the rain was just falling for like 4 days straight like de lord Jesus forget to turn off de hose.
However, I mustered up the strength and determination to drive through the rain for some jamaican food out Pembroke Pines side.
First time at Fiery Irie, and won't be my last, and this is why.
Rain was falling heavily, I came around 8:30pm, online told me they closing at 9pm, when I entered the establishment, it was very clean, and had a very attentive young lady to the front, when asked if they still had food, as I was expecting a very scarce selection based on the time I came, surprisingly she told me they had most of the menu.
I proceeded to order the bbq jerk chicken meal, which came with an option of rice and Peas and some macaroni pie, and another option which I can't remember, but I opted for the rice and Peas, and Mac pie, yep, I know that's a lot of carbs, but it was a cheat day for me. Also ordered a half pound of jerk pork on the side, oh and two beef patties for breakfast in the morning.
The bbq jerk chicken was great, the rice and the pie also were good, and I asked them for dark meat, and asked for ox tail gravy to be put all over, not swimming in gravy but a generous amount all over the meal.
I was content, and slept well, the patties went down good too the next morning.
Oh and lastly, the jerk pork wasn't no 1/2 lb, they packed it in, guess cause I came near closing time, but that jerk pork lasted for about two days after that.
Good service and food was decent, not the best jamaican food I've had, but ya all get 5 stars, because I can't give 4.5 :)

Ā Ā Ā Read moreOk where do I start well for one the owner is very rude & no manners. Then secondly the food didnāt have any taste to it the rice tasted bland & burnt. Then the food tasted like it waz leftover from the day before. The serving that they give out is a rip off compared to other places especially for the price Iām paying. How do u give someone barely two spoons of rice & three piece of oxtail & Iām paying full price smh. The patties taste like itās non authentic like itās out of the store & not made fresh from scratch. The rice waz hard & tasted like leftovers like I stated earlier if Iām paying top dollar I expect the food to be that. The jerk sauce tasted sour like itās been left out for a long period of time or needed to be changed but itās unacceptable. Last but not least I left to go next door & came back & when I came back some tall jaimacan man with a red cap was all in my wife face like him & her a buddy. No sir this is supposed to be a family environment. So when I proceeded to ask my wife what he said to her she said he is the owner/chef & she felt like he was flirting with her which is very unprofessional. Basically overall my experience there was horrible from the service from the older lady with the glasses with the braces to the food tasting horrible to the chef/owner all in people face. As I sat down I noticed he does that to all the women that walk in there & thatās not right. I hope that people see this & know for themselves cuz I will not return. Zero stars from...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI visited this establishment in Pembroke Pines Fl. I ordered a large and regular oxtail with rice and peas. I asked for extra gravy on the rice for both meals. The woman, who's name I did not get was scraping the bottom of the pan in which the oxtail was kept on the steam table. She then comes and tells me there isn't enough for the large plate that I ordered. I then told her that I didn't want the regular oxtail because I saw the product she was giving me and it wasn't pleasing. I asked her for brown stew children instead and to refund the money I had already paid for the oxtail which was considerably more. I don't know if she was perturbed over me telling her I didn't want the regular oxtail but she completely and utterly drowned the rice on both dishes with gravy to the point where it was inedible. When I looked in the tray of food I said to her "I asked for extra gravy not to drown it" There were a few people in line so I just took my food and left as not to hold anyone else up. I eat from this restaurant frequently but this time was horrible. The manager that refunded my money saw that I was questioning the woman but did nothing. I am just letting you know that, that isn't the way to go about things as long as you get paid to take the attitude of not caring. I didn't get a response to my email and I don't expect to. The nonchalant attitude they had at the time of the incident is the same nonchalant way they will address the...
