The taste of Jamaica is not original Jamaican food. They are over charging people, one food takeout, $52.00. Asked the price before buying and she didn't tell me. It was a rip off, later telling about prices went up. Smh!!

I went in to try the Jamaican beef patties. They were good. The woman who was at the counter was not very friendly...I am considering returning but did not feel very welcome.Perhaps if she were more friendly, she could have guided me in exploring something a little different than what I've eaten from the catering trucks.By not being friendly and approachable, you are missing out on other potential sales and business. That is basic customer service 101...The area in which this restaurant is located isn't too bad. The place is a little on the small side but appeared to be clean.

THEY SERVE OLD FOOD!!! Purchased soup from this place a couple of months ago and forgot to come leave a review. I'm Jamaican these people are NOT Jamaicans. I knew something was wrong when I placed the order and she took over 10 minutes to bring my soup. By the look of the soup, I knew it was cooked yesterday, I tasted 1 spoon and confirmed, that it was old soup and I had to throw it out. Waste of time going here and a waste of money.

Food tastes horrible, customer service is awful and presentation of food is also atrocious.

As I Am M.

Ordered the steamed fish and I don't know what I got. The fish had curry seasoning on it and the presentation was atrocious. I ordered a side of plantains for my daughter and she could not eat them because they were green and undercooked. The rice was oily and again presentation was bad. The supervisor didn't care about the customer's experience and insinuated I was lying about the presentation. Food is really bad and customer service is worse.

New location in Bristol. Very tasty. Decent portions. Happy to see some new and exciting cuisine around here.

I got a large curry goat dinner with rice. I had about 5 bones with hardly any meat stuck on them, three slices of plantain and vegetable. The large dinner was $17. I think the person serving me needed her glasses on or something, because she served me nothing but bones and gravy on my rice. Never again! Restaurants just don’t care what they serve you anymore. That’s highway robbery. ?
