The jerk chicken was extremely dried out and tasted rancid. I'm not sure how someone manages to completely dried out chiken thighs and and drumsticks. I can't even explain the oxtail we orderd. . It was just as bad. The portion size was generous, but the food is simply horrible. We were in Miami yesterday, June first, 2026 and found the place on Google. read more

WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU FOLKS UPDATED YOUR MENU ONLINE?? We wanted oxtail, and your menu online today--March 28, 2026--said $15.95 for a large order. When we got there, it was $29!!!! This is ridiculous in this digital age. GET WITH THE PROGRAM, CLIFF'S.... From an unhappy customer read more

Leftover and microwaved. "Jerk Sauce" taste like water, salt & browning. Not pictured is the jerk chicken which look like they cut up to heat the inside on a skillet. Disappointing. Too many better jamaican spots around. read more

Cliff's Restaurant & Catering - Jerk Pork - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

Real Jamaican cuisine with authentic Jamaican flavors! Loved every bite, we ordered the jerk pork which was juice flavorful spicy and delicious. If you happen to catch the lunch special during the week, you'll be getting a good amount of food at a reasonable price! The establishment itself is a small hole in the wall, has a few seats available but it's mainly take out. I do think the lady in the front should be a little nicer especially when it's not a regular, kindness goes a long way. But over all the food was amazing read more

One of the tastiest and best quick meals I've had recently. My boy friend and I ordered a late night dinner after we drove to Miami over the weekend. We had the Jerk chicken, rice and peas plate which was served with sautéed cabbage and cooked plantains. The jerk chicken was juicy, smoky, perfectly blackened, extremely tasty and great quantity of meat for 1 portion that served 2 hungry tired souls. The rice and black beans combo was quite filling, flavourful and yummy. We devoured the meal instantly. Am craving for it again while am typing this review thousands of miles away. We ordered DoorDash so cannot comment on the service or ambiance. read more

4 stars ONLY because the portion size on the akee and salt fish Taste wise it's a 10/10, but portion wise they are definitely rationing The sides are the main course and Akee and Saltfish is the side read more

Cliff's is AMAZING! One of the best Jamaican eats I've had. This place is underrated and needs more love. The oxtails will have your mouth watering and the portion is a great size! The jerk chicken is delicious and rich in flavor while falling off the bone. If you like Jamaican food in Miami, cliffs is where you need to go! read more

The price are reasonable and the food is worth the price it's best to order ahead of time but besides that I would recommend

Salty as ever. If there is such a thing as overseasoned, that too. Mushy cabbage. Rice and peas, no. Its- A lot of rice and a few red kidney beans in there. Possibly a bad night here but a huge waste of money. Very disappointed about it. Never again, sorry... read more

I love Jamaican food so much and this hits the spot. Food is great. I've had the jerk chicken and pork so far and it's always amazing. I had the jerk chicken lunch special and they hooked it up. People were nice as well. Love cliffs. read more

Ordered this for Delivery after a long day on the ocean and boy did it hit the spot. These days I am always craving chicken with peas and rice so when I was scrolling through my delivery options and saw Jerk Chicken I was sold. Very quick preparation and delivery. Very generous portion as you can see from the photo! The chicken was delicious; probably a half bird I think. Super flavorful; and that sauce that came with it was great! A nice little burst of heat. Peas and rice were delicious probably made the right way with coconut milk. Especially the bites where that yummy sauce had leaked through! Amazing! I would totally come back here and would love to actually have the time and energy to dine in and get the full experience! But I have no regrets and enjoyed a wonderful meal! read more

I ordered an oxtail dinner the oxtail was good the rice was over cooked. The plantains were okay I'm just a bit down about my rice. Maybe I'll try again earlier in the day. read more

All my life, I've been passing by this restaurant, and today was the day that I decided to try it... since, it was recommended by a friend. We ordered the brown stew chicken (lunch) and it came with a drink on the side and oxtail dinner and quite frankly we did not enjoy it. It was just not up to our standards per say. The lemonade tasted sour to me. read more

What can I say.... a lot of GOOOD THINGS about Cliff's -- and please read. I originally went to another Jamaican restaurant and the folk there did not know anything about customer service BUT I kept searching and found Cliff's Restaurant & Catering. What a 360!! Great fresh food, great customer service, big portions... I really recommend Cliff's and I'm glad I found this location. Make sure to try them out -- and I promise, you won't be disappointed. I had Jerk Chicken, with cabbage, rice and peas, plantains, and a lemonade. I'll be back!!!!!! Reasonably priced as well. read more

Cliff's Restaurant & Catering - Jerk Chicken Meal (large) with rice and peas, cabbage, and plantains. Reallly good with extra gravy - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

I heard friends talk about this restaurant; however, the food wasn't good at all. Not flavourful, just overall bad. I ordered from them online, which wasn't great, so I decided to give them another try and went in to order. The jerk chicken was just hot, not flavourful, just hot, and the rice was dry and just wrong. The sauce was watery and seemed like a lot of spice, don't get me wrong, I love jerk chicken. And you are supposed to taste it in the meat, but this wasn't the case. It was just bad and not good at all. There's easy parking out front if you want to drop in for a quick pick-up. But it's also located on a busy street. read more

best jerk chicken i've had!! the meat is so tender and flavorful. rice and peas also sooo good

You have to look hard for it but you'll be glad you found it. Clean place, friendly family staff and welcoming prices, a plus for the era we live in. I got a curry chicken lunch special which included a hefty portion of chicken, white rice, steamed vegetables and plantain with a fresh lemonade for $5.95. Same price and deal for the jerk chicken. Both were delicious. They also have a badass sound system which I'm sure plays reggae well into the night when they have events. Amazing place I'm very glad to have found. read more

Late night food. Food was beyond delicious. Full of authentic flavors. The woman here is awesome. I called to tell her I'm on my way and she waited for me. I ordered jerk chicken and forget to ask for oxtail gravy over my rice but they did that already. Was so happy with the flavors and they pack a big portion ! You can eat this twice. Best thing is it wasn't over priced. Please come try here read more

The food is legit and the service makes you feel at home. Love eating here with friends

Found some kind of nasty waxy paper in my food after I ate more than half. I feel sick. Don't know if it's all in my head or if whatever it was physically made me ill. This is the time of Covid. Hygiene of a restaurant should be 1000% better, and it's not. I took the food back and they reimbursed me. But what bothered me is that there were 2 other customers there and the staff were whispering so as to not let the other customers know that I was returning contaminated food. And they continued to serve food without checking how much was contaminated. And they initially tried to keep the $1 tip I gave when I initially bought. Even though I did pickup, I still tipped because I know Resturants are struggling these times. But it goes to show you that restaurant don't really care about what they do with your food. read more

My favorite place to get jerk pork. The portions are huge and it taste great even the day after. I definitely rly drive from far away for the pork. read more

This is my first time I ordered takeout and was horrified on how small the parking was for the restaurant. Only parking enough for five or six cars so I had to park on the sidewalk and stressed about picking up my to go order I'm not a big fan of oxtail and this was a special request for a friend of mine I will bring to her, upstate. I have no idea what the food tastes like. If you can't fit into the parking, bring a shoehorn, a crowbar, or the KY jelly. Not a big fan of public transportation read more

I ordered this oxtail plate on Uber eats where the plate alone is $19. First time customer. The woman I spoke to at the restaurant was nice but I asked her "how is a oxtail plate $19?" She explained it's $14.95 if I walk in but I didn't have that option. I'm Bahamian so that just seems a little pricey than what I'm use to. I won't bash the food but for the price...it's mediocre. When I say NO SEASONING baby....NONE. I had to literally season my cabbage AND oxtail, which should always have a depth in flavor. Not to mention they gave me TWO pieces of plantain for a $19 plate :) two pieces....however, once I stopped and seasoned my plate, it was pretty good. AND even though the oxtail was cooked bland, it fell off the bone, I give them that. Overall, I think I'll past next time. read more

Food is ok, especially if it's a lunch special. However, if you like giving business to rude people, go ahead! You can go in with a smile, be friendly, and sweet and the owner lady will look at you, barely speak back, and over all acts as if you're a bother outside of hanging over your stuff... I get you want my money, just like I want your food..but I'll go the the other location before I ever deal with anyone's stank attitude for no reason read more

The food is great ... oxtail is my favorite ..I alway get me a red strip while i wait for my order..

From word of mouth, I heard from a relative that Cliff's restaurant was the go to place for authentic Jamaican food. I've been to a few spots here in Miami and I have to say that this may very well be my new spot for Jamaican/island food. We ordered the Jerk Pork dinner which included jerk pork, brown rice and beans, cabbage, and jerk sauce. The service was speedy and the wait time was less than 10 min. So, fast forward, got home and let me tell you, the food was plentiful and most importantly delicious!!! I have been wanting jerk pork for awhile now and I am so happy that I came here. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone, and can't wait to return and try some of the other menu items. 5 starts easily! read more

Man the chicken taste like it been sitting for 4 hours rubbery and bad taste I tried to give them another never again will I step foot in there than we call to tell them the problem they hang up 0/10 for me I would give them a 1 but they hung up back customer service read more

I've only ever had their lunch specials, it's an unbeatable deal for this area and food. The food has never let me down. The ambiance is certainly questionable as this is not a "dine in" kind of spot. It certainly has a hole in the wall restaurant vibe. Service is generally on the slower side, but you're really not coming here for fast service. I encourage anyone to order ahead of time on the phone and then pick up. Parking can be a bit of a mess as people normally lock each other in, but normally a simple request of someone to move their car does the job. read more

Great little Jamaican spot to get food. Always flavorful and good portioning. A variety of juices to choose from. Soups are always delicious and on Saturdays they have Mannish Water. Great pricing on lunch specials from 11am to 3pm. You can get jerk chicken rice and peas for under $10 or even curry. Slices of cake is also available. If you have diet restrictions you can ask to substitute the rice and peas for steamed vegetables. It's a small place that can get busy so at times you have to be patient. Construction in the area makes it hard to park. The food makes up for it all. Cliffs food is great on any day at any time read more

Food looked good. I got oxtails (large) peas n rice( no seasoning) cabbage sweet plantains with A red velvet cake. The worst $30 I spent the food was nasty and had no taste. I originally went to Donnas and they were sold out but I should've just for something else to eat I'm big mad. This place fell off BIG TIME read more

Great oxtails! The environment is a bit sketchy but the food mss as he's up for it all! Consistently delicious!

Ordered delivery today for lunch and all I can say is WOW! Holy s*** this is some delicious food. The portion is huge, came hot and fresh. I got the jerk chicken. *chefs kiss* I hope to come by and visit the restaurant soon. Thank you Cliff! read more

great food and fast service no complain being visiting for many years off and on every one there is very nice and polite I would recommend to anyone that like Jamaica Food read more

Delicious. Open late. Consistent. They even have great lunch specials. I prefer calling the restaurant and ordering food directly from them as pricing appears to be more expensive on third party apps, plus this is a mom and pop shop so ordering and delivering dollars directly to them cuts out the middle man making pricing both better for the customer and the restaurant. I've been coming here for years. The curry goat is good, the oxtail is good, but the jerk pork hits in a way beyond this world. It takes me back to my childhood and I'm not even Jamaican. All in all, I highly recommend. read more

The server/cashier was not friendly at all. Had about 4 peas in the rice and peas, oxtails were aight, the worse part was the dried out beed patties. The only thing that was good was the jerk chicken. read more
