They always have Chicken Foot Soup, and they are VERY affordable. I love this place! Soup made daily, so it's always fresh.Wheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs, and it is located on the ground floor. Easy access for someone in a wheelchair.

Very good jerk chicken, and a lot of for the price. Granted the place needs a little TLC but the service is very on point.

Jamaican hood spot delicious food the best time to order is 2pm-4pm the cabbage is fully cooked and the only downside is they stop making mac cheese. No mac cheese on the menu

J&J is my favorite Jamaican spot the J*** Chicken you smell for blocks in the morning. Good people, good food, and great prices. A small platter is like a large and large platter I can never eat in one serving. It's located at 55th Chester Ave it's a pretty busy area especially with the let out of schools in the area from 3pm-5pm it's kind of congested with the Trolleys and school kids.

This place needs a makeover and need to be a lot brighter. There’s always a line I waited over 20 minutes for a pick up order because the lady wanted to leave out to get lottery tickets when there was 8 people in line. Very unprofessional and unorganized. I’ve been eating here for over 20 years the food is good but the atmosphere and owners need an upgrade period!!!!

I can't believe why J&J Restaurant doesn't have any reviews. I've been coming to J&j for over 10yrs. They have the BEST Jamaican food I've ever tasted!!! I've tried Jamaican food from everywhere (except Jamaica) and no other place has topped J&J. If you haven't tried this Jamaican Restaurant do yourself a favor and check it out. Trust me you won't be disappointed. Once you try J&J you'll be coming back for more and more & more... They are Number #1

Whenever I am in the area, takeout from J&J's is a must!! Go for the food! Huge portions. I have health issues that affect my diet, so I always get J*** chicken (pictured above) or stew chicken and a double side of cabbage. My husband tries different things - oxtail, rice and beans with gravy, curried goat - all fabulous!! I would say that it might be hard to know this place exists, but once you find it you will always go back!!! We were told about it and it's always a special day when we go. From the outside and also the inside - it doesn't look like much. But the food and service are AMAZING!! We always get the large size, and for about $20, I get 3 large YUMMY meals!!

So this hole in the wall looking place ( don’t let the look fool you the food is amazing & taste just like Jamaica ??) most definitely I’ll be back

Yum yum good. They pile it high with flavorful food. Pays to buy it vs trying to make it yourself. Would give 5 stars only negative is little salty but that's because I need low salt diet
