My girlfriend and I stopped by to check this place out. It was good. The service was excellent, the waiter was polite. They didn’t have a menu, but the waiter explained options well. The crowd was live and people were having a good time watching the game on TV. Our seafood was excellent. The jerk chicken passes, but don’t expect it to be memorable. Overall it’s a good place to check out and especially to watch games and have events.

Bought a piece of macaroni pie. It was $5 for a small piece,now its $9+ after tax. My wife is vincy and she is a big supporter.sent me for the pie but she was pissed at the price for that small tasteless pie. It tasted like macaroni and butter,no cheese...it has the colour of cheese being in it but tasted nothing like before. The service was slow and not alot of pwrsons were there . It took 15 minutes to get a piece of pie. The variety of food was disappointing too. The decor is more sophisticated and the it looks great but the vibe was off. I will try them again because maybe it was a one off. They need to promote themselves more. The music was goood,system was good.They need to reevaluate the prices and servings but the mac pie needs to come better than that.

The restaurant seemed very clean and has a lot of potential. Ordered the Curry Goat with white rice and steam veg. First off prices are not listed, paid $18. The food was very fresh and the meat was made fresh, the meat fell off the bone. The flavour needs some adjustment, the gravy is a bit thin as well. I compared it to by husbands order a few day later and we spoke about our experience, we both agreed the gravy was thin and meat needed more flavour also he paid a different price which is why they should display the prices. I don’t know if I will be back.

Customer service is very welcoming and the food is hot, fresh & absolutely delicious! The oxtail was cooked to PERFECTION and the mac pie was really good (my daughters favorite). Definitely will be back to try something else!

The ambience was great, staff was very polite and friendly, food was amazing, and the portions were very generous making the price definitely worth my money. I will absolutely recommend to others and visit again.

**I dont have a pic of my food b/c I ate it before I remembered lol Its a nice small-medium sized spot with booths to sit and eat (wings, jollof rice, vincy stew chicken, seafood Sundays, etc.) they have a dj, good priced drinks. Bonus - they had popular Caribbean drinks like Stag beer. I loved that its owned by a Vincentian and its a welcoming chill vibe. The bartenders and other staff have great customer service and are really friendly, even the other patrons were too! I had oxtail and jollof rice. Excellent portion and price. The jollof rice was spicy and really flavorful, it was a nice Vincy spin on a traditional Nigerian & Ghanaian dish. The oxtail mmm fall off the bone, beautiful colour and flavour. This spot is perfect for a date night, or going out to chill with friends over drinks. Ill be going back!

I have ordered delivery from this restaurant and the food matches the price and quality. It is presented nicely and the food tastes as it should. It is refreshing to have a new different caribbean restaurant in the area. I will be definitely ordering again. Food

Amazing Caribbean food - I had the jerk chicken meal - authentic, with a warm welcome. Highly recommend.

I will start off by saying that the staff seemed friendly the place is nice and spacious and clean BUT this has got to be the worst Jamaican food I m ever had. There was NO flavour to the oxtail I don t know if the cooks were just off today; but my first impression wasn t a good one.

My friend and I came to Jkson s this afternoon for lunch. The customer service here is beyond amazing, the staff are extremely kind and thoughtful. We had the oxtail with rice peas and a side of macaroni pie, it was so delicious. The only minus for me were the portion sizes, they were on the smaller side but apart from that everything else was 10/10.
