Came back this afternoon and just in time to grab me a full plate this time. The service was great. The cook was welcoming and had great vibes. All food items were available. Everything was good. No complaints. Definitely recommend pulling up and grabbing a plate if you haven't already. read more

Came here when I first landed and this was a great choice. I love me some jerk chicken so I couldn't wait to chow down. The plantains, chicken and fiesta bread were fire!!! The mild sauce had the perfect flavor. Rice and peas meh. Not going to lie pretty bland. The cabbage was okay. The service was top tier and the ambiance of the space was perfect to eat and stay a bit. Overall if you're in the area give this place a try read more

FOOD IS AMAZING. I never had Jerk like this taste so good!!!!! I don't know what Don puts in that bread either, but let me get 14 of them asap. read more

The service was great and the food was phenomenal! There were a lot of options around this area and I decided to go with Don'e because he offered a free sample. One taste of that chicken and I HAD to get a full plate. The chicken was great. My only complaint is that the rice was a little dry, but the rest of the food was on point. read more

The chicken was flavorful and moist and the festival bread was crispy and nice! I will be returning!

My god Donovan's Jerk Stop is 10/10. The food tastes even better than it smells. Donovan has a food stand posted right out front of the Dollar Tree and Wing Stop on La Tijera. I am unwell....the fried plantain was PERFECTLY fried. The service was awesome and I'm going to have to restrain myself from grabbing dinner here every single week. I'm not shocked at all that he had a short wait list for his food - this place is about to have a line down the block. *Payment Note: Don accepts Cash or Zelle* read more

Don is the man. Jerk is authentic just like on the side of the road in Jamaica. Honestly so happy Don came to town because LA was lacking a good jerk spot. The festival is absolute fire also. read more

Dee-licious! Great portions for the prices! Clean stand and freshly grilled chicken. Also, the meal is friendly to my diet! 5-stars!

So fucking good! Never had Jerk chicken this good that wasn't from a friend's home. The man himself and his service was amazing. The street ambiance is so iconic to what makes l.a. street food so good. Fresh jamaican bread to go with his meal, so knowledgeable and friendly. Loved it. Gonna come back when I'm in the area, believe it! read more

I'm sry but this food is not good. There are no full pieces of chicken I feel cheated like I maybe got 2 pieces. Rice and peas were dry and cold cabbage cold, sauce is not appealing. Festival bread was good. I'm cool but returning read more

I was very surpise to get the flavor of Jamaica here on La Tijera The Chicken, rice and peas, sweet bread. Man the jerk chicken was deliscous. I will tell all my friends from Compton Hills. Service was friendly and fast. Ambiance was clean and well kept. read more

Don's jerk seasoning and sauce were delicious! His customer service is 5 star. Also, the spot is CLEAN. I got 2 large plates - dark and white meat - for $40. It's cash or Zelle only. However, I'm not a fan of dry meats - and the white meat was drier than kneecaps in Afghanistan. Otherwise, I would have put 5 stars. With that said... my coworker O'Neil was born and raised in Jamaica. He said Don's is the best - and most AUTHENTIC - jerk chicken in the city... so WTF do I know! I just dipped the dry meat in jerk sauce and STFU. read more

Don jerk don't know how to manage his food stand, nor how to talk with his customers. Today, like always the wait time was super long, more than 20 minutes, no hot sauce, no festivals! I don't recall putting an order in and he had everything that I wanted. Today I ordered two chicken-only and one full plate (because of course he ran out of festivals. When I arrived after 30 minutes I still had to wait a few minutes and guess what, he wanted to give me only 1 instead of 2 chicken-only because he ran out. Then he gave a shitty excuse that others were 2 hours ahead of me waiting for their order, which makes absolutely no sense! I cancelled my order and walked away, then he started using curse words and screaming. My advice Don: take some F&B classes, learn how to manage your inventory, and treat your customers with respect! This dude doesn't deserve a penny anymore out of my pockets. read more
