I think I have already written a great review, but I wanted to write again after today’s visit. This place is AMAZING! Food is incredible!! The buffet has soooo many delicious choices and is kept full all the time. I don’t even like eating foods like Jerk Chicken but I LOVE it at Jerk Hut!! It has just the right amount of spice for any palate. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. It feels like I’m back on one of the islands. I ordered a drink from the bar and they did not skimp on the alcohol so it was a very good drink! Besides the awesome wait staff, there was a manager who was walking around making sure everyone was happy and making sure the buffet was filled, etc…he said he is from Guyana but I’m sorry to say I didn’t ask his name and didn’t look at his tag. He was the sweetest and so hospitable! My husband ordered oxtail (from the menu, not at the buffet) and he LOVED it! This place is a must! It is our new weekly spot! Go! You won’t regret it!

Nice and spacious caribbean restaurant and lounge. Serving most dishes I am accustomed to, including brown stew or stem fish, which are my personal favorites. They also provide a nicely stacked all you could eat buffet. I enjoyed the dine-in experience.

The food is delicious, and the drinks are strong. The restaurant can easily host your events with a private room available but go for the food. They offer menu and buffet style with a drink menu that is not for the weak drinkers. The service and attentiveness is excellent.

First impression of ambiance at a 2! Service at a 4 and food at a good 8! I had to get past a lot to even consider eating here but the place did not have a line a people ordering food for no reason. The food was very flavorful and for the price of the buffet it was good! Some TLC to this place would do it some good and bring in more customers.

The plates they give you to-go fold with the weight of the food. It’s very cheap quality to-go containers they leak too. But aside from that…the chicken was dry and lacked the flavor I’m used to with jamican food. Basically, they take the short-cut and the cheap route. I’d advise looking further for your jamican food.

Let’s just say I have eaten here before, but something has changed. Couldn’t take a picture of the food area buffet table that would have given me away. But nonetheless, I won’t be back. I repeat, it’s nice to have a profit but it’s nice to have a clean restaurant. You making the money fix the place up including all the side rooms. The music was too loud not on a professional sound system cheap speakers from the ceiling with a high-pitched tone very annoying. I really love the burnt plantains. I highly recommend you that you don’t try them or you must be used to this kind of cooking.

Waste of $20. The Chicken soup looks strange but I drank some broth after smelling the soup bc it smelled edible but it made me VOMIT. I was also turned off by only 3 pcs of brown stew chicken and though the rice and gravy tasted OK im very disappointed because this isn’t the best Jamaican food AND absolutely not worth the price. I had to trash the entire meal.

The food, staff and attention to not only detail but making sure we had everything we needed during our use of the private room was outstanding. Our family did all of the beautiful decorations and I wanted to show the way this room could be used for private events. The food was not only delicious-again, the staff was really on top of things and were making sure we were enjoying all of it! A few of us were from out of town so we were unfamiliar with the menu and were pleasantly surprised by the variety of flavors that blended so well together. We had several different choices and it was set up buffet style-I tasted everything that was offered and especially liked the way the chicken was prepared. One of my favorite sides was the cabbage! It was sublime. Second favorite was the way the green bean & carrot mix was prepared; perfectly cooked so they weren’t mushy and had a nice bite to them. Nothing we had was too spicy, but, there was a nice surprise kick to the vegetable side dish.

I have been looking for a good Jamaican restaurant, and I finally went to this restaurant after being here in FL for a year. I walked in and asked about dining in, and when we sat, I was told I had an option to buffet or order from the menu. (What!) Jamaican buffet… The food was hot, with great food options, no curry goat or oxtail) but I understood, veggies, and very tasty food. The owner also came out and asked how everything was going, I am from Connecticut, where the Jamaican restaurant is not like this…. You’re greeted with attitudes for days. But not here, my waitress Shaquania was Amazing and beautiful. The young lady at the bar with the dreads was great. I loved everything and can’t wait to return with more Family!!! Big Ups..
