The food was okay, the oxtail dinner was very small considering the price & compared to other jamaican restaurants. I asked for extra gravy for the rice but she didn't apply it to the rice. The rice still had flavor so that's good but the oxtails were very small & didn't really have much meat, so definitely a waste on money on that. I also grab a beef patty now that was actually good and had some spice to it which i loved. I would only come back to grab a beef patty!

Waited over an hour for 1 order of jerk chicken. Mostly cold rice and small portion of chicken. Flavor of food mid, not great.

This place seems unsanitary. The person working was either eating or chewing gum with their mouth open while making my order. They didn’t wear gloves either. They put my food in a small black container and all my food was touching including the salad which was located underneath the chicken. The container could barely close and leaked in the bag. On Uber, the description says it includes plantain, which it doesn’t. The food was bland and the chicken was all bones. I guess they throw that “jerk sauce” on everything hoping to add flavor, but it doesn’t taste like any jerk sauce I’ve had before — it tastes like overly sweet BBQ sauce.

Oxtail and goat curry were both tender and flavorful. Meat was well prepped and not gamey or fatty. She put some stew on the rice - not enough to be wet wet, but enough to make ya happy. Salad was fresh and well dressed. Very filling portions and a good amount of meat. Utensils and napkins are available. Truck looked very clean inside. We took our food around the corner to Kubota Garden to eat at the picnic tables.

I literally threw $25 in the trash. I didn’t even feel comfortable giving it away. The food was horrible. I’m thoroughly disappointed. No flavor at all. The curry goat has no bones, a very small portion and bland. Why is it so hard to get good Jamaican food in Seattle. I will never go here again. Gross. I’m mad as hell. ?

On a Saturday afternoon after running a heap of errands in south Seattle I was famished! I needed sustenance of a homey sort nothing fast or fried would suffice. The thing that was on my mind and heart was OXTAIL! I'd been craving the succulent meat for a while with no hope of ever finding a restaurant near me with the option. I searched Jamaican and this restaurant came to the top of the list. Within a close proximity too! I scurried as fast as I could to the location. When I pulled into the parking lot I noticed a small mart and across from it was a modest food truck wrapped in the colors of the Caribbean and I KNEW I was in the right place. The single operator was outside of the truck erasing something from the board and my heart sank. I knew what was being removed in my soul I knew... I approached the truck and saw with a heavy heart the oxtail had been sold out. That didn't stop me I bantered with the kind lady that was attending and I ordered a plate of curry chicken with a side of Sorrel. OUTSTANDING! The flavors were rich the meat delicate and of course cooked to perfection. The fresh thyme sprigs weren't just there for show they did their job too! I know exactly where to go when I'm craving a good authentic Jamaican meal and they serve breakfast too! I'd advise to check the hours before arriving as well as maybe giving her a call. You won't regret the meal nor the sleep after it's been consumed. I will be making a steady appearance to this place albeit the price is reasonable the satisfaction is priceless. Thank you Just Like Home!

I Continue to get disappointed every time I go here. Yes, I did say every time because I've gone here on multiple occasions with the hope of my experience being better than the last and unfortunately it hasn't changed.The food is overpriced in relation to amount of food given. The curry flavor is good but the jerk chicken taste more like barbecue chicken with a bunch of sauce smothered over. There's very little jerk flavor in the chicken but that wasn't enough as you can see in the picture they give you a half a pound of rice and a small handful of chicken with majority of bones in it.I wish I could give a better review as a whole attempt to support black business in the south end, but this food truck needs to get better .

Just had this today. My partner has been absolutely dying to find this kind of food in the PNW. The truck was being worked on I think so we had to stop by their home instead. Partner and I both got jerk chicken. I also meant to ask about beef patties, but forgot. Oh well, next time I will remember!Anyway it was very delicious! I initially expected something very spicy, it was definitely more sweet w/ a kick instead but oh so flavorful. Also since other reviews keep mentioning getting it delivered cold: it was all piping hot when we got it, and we just drove to a spot nearby to park and eat.My partner remarked that it tasted very much like what she remembered :)(also: yes, it has bones. it's supposed to)
