Undeniably Redd (Redd Zo)

Love this place!!! It's probably the only place that makes authentic Jamaican food in Bridgeport, and many places have opened, but this is a go-to for me. The jerk chicken doesn't taste like bbq chicken, and they're true to the original recipe.

The service is very bad, they take too long to prepare the food, a single person doing the work of 4 people in the kitchen. For delivery it is a torment ?? A single person in the kitchen spent 25 minutes preparing a single order.

I really like this place. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They made me feel very welcome. I could sense that they wanted to make sure I was satisfied. That speaks volumes. The decorum was very cultured and colorful. The chicken soup was very savory and the jerk chicken, rices & peas, cabbage and plantains really hit the spot! I also liked that they had Arizona teas for $1. Most Jamaican restaurants only serve drinks that are high priced. It was great to have options. I highly recommend this place. The energy is amazing!

Found my new go-to place for delicious Jamaican food. Had jerk chicken with rice and beans and cabbage. Got medium size portion for dinner, and was full. The chicken was soo good!! Can't wait to go back and try other dishes.Great friendly service! Easy to get to, right off the highway.

Call me crazy but if you’re incapable of changing your dying fire alarm’s battery, I doubt you’re capable of following the myriad of food safety standards. 95% rice, 4% sticks and bones.

First time having “breakfast” here and I should had just went to the place I normally go to on Boston avenue because the salt fish was undercooked, callaloo was crunchy and they had no dumplings… Waste of $17.00!!!

Pricey but that's too be expected with this type of food, however, the food is the best I've had.
