Jamaican Restaurants near Hawthorne, CA

“This is the first time we had Caribbean food and it was very very good. I love the heat and all the flavors. If you want to try something different and want a taste of the islands, this is the place you have to go! We will definitely be back......delicious!!! Need to try everything else on the menu. Thank you very much!“

“The absolute best Jamaican food I've ever had!!! And I've tried several spots. This place hands down has the best flavors of all of them. I literally licked the plate! Lol! My favorite is the oxtail ???Everyone needs to try this place. You will be hooked and craving it all the time.“

“I was referred to this place by a coworker while looking for local Jamaican food. I was originally skeptical because they don’t have a formal website and reviews seemed mixed but this place is the epitome of mom and pop. The service was GREAT. I did a phone pick up order and once I got there, the front had a line out the door and I still got my order timely. I ordered the combo plate of brown stew and oxtail (which I enjoyed because most places don’t let you mix entrees for a fair price). Everything was fresh, hot, tender, and full of flavor. I think I’ve found a new lunch place. I ordered a large plate and small sorrel (fresh hibiscus juice) and it was AMAZING. I should’ve got the large drink. The large plate is shareable or saveable. My only regret is not ordering a Jamaican patty.“

“This is a new Jamaican resturant in the Mid City area. Very nice for dine in as well. Authentic cousin that makes you forget you're in LA. The ambiance was calm. Cool and had flat screens around for your viewing pleasure to catch a game or whatever.I tried the oxtail and baby let me tell you that they did not disappoint. The meat was seasoned to perfection. The gravy guicy packed with flavor. I mean I basically ate them with a fork now that should give you a clear example of how tender these oxtail were my friend.The rice and peas I mean you can't mess that up. And the cabbage was packed with flavors. One of its kind. I've had cabbage every which way but never like this. So delicious. Would definitely double up on that next time I visit. And please believe me there will be a next time.I can't go without mentioning the customer service from the boss man himself Bouka. Top tear quality. Attentive and made us feel like we were the most important guest in the establishment. Above and beyond service with offering samples because I found it difficult deciding what I wanted from the menu cause everything looked sooo good.Vegetarian options: SeveralVeggie plate.SpinachRasta pastaCabbage“

“THE BEST JAMAICAN FOOD IN LA - as a former New Yorker who acquired the great taste of authentic Jamaican food - this will always be #1 here. The portion me are large. I can sometimes get 2 meal. Out of the platter. The food is always served HOT. They just never miss. The service is typical Jamaican restaurant service IYKYK. The vibe is in and out.“

“Wanda at the cashier was so nice to me today. I was coming from eye surgery and she pleasantly read off the menu for me. Also hooked me up with a scotch bonnet. The red peas soup with chicken foot was the best I've had, and the oxtail was delicious. Good portions, and that oxtail gravy will make your mouth water. Only minor quible is the plantain could have been sweeter/ riper. While they don't serve pork here, check it out anyway. The chef knows what he's doing!“

“I was craving Ackee and saltfish today and found this place online… I’m so glad I did… food was amazing, fresh and generous portions…and great/friendly service! I had the Ackee/saltfish with dumplings and the pineapple ginger and everything was really good! Can’t wait to go back!“

“The chef Garry fixed my food I had curry goat first time I ever had boneless goat it was very flavorful. The service was ok, the waitress never checked on me but once because my drink was off and she made a new one.Parking: Had to find parking and the light to turn onto Main Street is a nightmare I sat there 10 min waiting for a turn finally just got out turning lane went down some blocks and over to come back up“

“This place is a hidden gem ? I had the goat meat plate everything was delicious from the cabbage to the peas and rice. I also went to the market connected to the restaurant and bought some Oxtails that comes seasoned or none seasoned. Loved it! I am a forever customer, Thanks ?“

“The aroma when u step in would keep u in looking at the foods.Trying the chicken patty before eating food that's like appetizers.Then I recommend jerk chicken, curry goat yea with riceDamn it's goodThere are other meals tooCurry chicken ,Oxtail too“

“Listen to reggae music and hip-hop while waiting for your delicious authentic Jamaican meal. I bought the curried goat and jerk chicken. Definitely one of the best Jamaican restaurants.Parking: The plaza is small with only 7 parking spots available. There is street parking on the side road but not many spaces.“

“I've been indulging on Shabazz's bean pies for years. Rosalie's Caribbean Cuisine has the famous Shabazz bean pies. I had to buy a few of them, so I did ( dint judge me). I did share with my family as much as I could. Anybody that has never tried a bean pie ever in their life, should try Shabazz bean pies first and foremost, you will not be disappointed! Let me know what you think. I promise it's delicious.“

“The food was served really quick and it was good delicious. All though, they don't reveal any ingredients for the drinks which is disappointing cause we were fooled thinking their special drinks ( Watermelon punch) was carbonation. The restaurant was really homely reminding me of my home country Kenya. But the Regaee punch, jerk chicken combo, and both of their meat patties were to dieeee for ?Dietary restrictions: The food is soul food which is packed with fat and sugar, the food was perfectly salted ( barely none to some) which I enjoyed But this was definitely not healthy ?“

“One of the better Jamaican restaurants in the South Bay area. I got the Jerk chicken dinner with three sides which after taxes comes to around $24.00 or so, but the food is worth it. They also have lunch specials, but only during the week. Definitely would recommend to those fans of Jamaican cuisine.“
