This is my first time ordering from Bentleys and I won’t make it my last.Ordered the chicken soup which was so full of flavor, loved the small kick of spice also, was a large and is possible to save more for later! Plantains were just right and the beef patty was delicious.So glad to have a local Jamaican spot nearby.

It was a really cold and rainy and I was craving some Jamaican style soup. I ordered 3 large chicken soups for my workers and I . It was well seasoned with fresh ingredients. My only critique would be to add a little spice but that’s just a personal preference. Thanks for the great soup ! He says to call in advance for the soup it may be sold out !

If you want overpriced Jamaican food, and wait 10-20 minutes for them to warm it up, with unfriendly service. Then Bentley's is your place! I live in Hartford, and there are Jamaican restaurants on every corner so I know good Jamaican food.I happened to be in Meriden for work. So I said lets give it a try. The guy in glasses ? who took my order (idk if he was Bentley I believe it was) was very cold an unwelcoming, as a fellow Jamaican he gave me a bad vibe while ordering?#1 I ignored it. AnywayI ordered a medium pepper steak and tropical rhythms juice $23.50 ?#2. I was in Meriden so ok I guess? He proceeded to the back behind a door to get my order, I was on the job so time was a factor, he comes back out 5 minutes later and tells me my food is coming soon ?#3 I already paid so where can I go? 15 minutes later I get my medium (which is a small compared to Hartford restuarants) steak in a staple closed bag ?#4 What do I do? immediately opened the bag to see what I was getting for $20. He didn't look happy when I did so. I asked for pepper sauce, Bentley ? pushed a basket of generic hot sauce packets towards me. If you know almost every Jamaican restaurant in Hartford has a bottle of Grace hot pepper available for customer use. He had them too except, they were on the back shelf For Sale Only! He rudely made that clear. As a Jamaican I had a few choice words for him before leaving his restaurant..I forgot to tell him Hey ?Bentley if you're reading this GO SUCK YUH SOUR STINKING MUMMA TILL SHE DRY BATTY BOY! Never again yu teef. The food was average at best not worth that money. Guess you can fool Door dash Meriden customers.

Been going to Bentleys since they opened mostly for takeout. My go-to-dishes were curry chicken and j*** chicken.Went recently and decided to try the curry goat with rice and peas and plantains.It was a good comfort meal. Will definitely be going back.The lady that works there was very nice and pleasant. She even told me it may be a few minutes (to fry the plantains from scratch) which I prefer. I was so grateful she took the time xtra time. Some other places will tell you it’s not ready.Parking: Parked on street in front

First off, what kind of Jamaican restaurant doesn't let you get a different kind of gravy with the main dish you order? So you mean to tell me I have order a whole another meal just to get curry goat gravy? Second I can't get a small container of just j*** chicken? REALLY???? The best part of the dish was the rice and that's it. The oxtail gravy was greasy and the j*** chicken wasn't even seasoned properly. And the veggies were bland and tasted undercooked. I will never eat there again.
