I was not able to take off my coat or scarf at all which made it uncomfortable for me to fully enjoy my meal. I understand that the wait is long when you order a mofongo because they make it fresh which I appreciate but it suckd that I also have to wait 40 min. For soup when ordered as an appetizer. The food was great but the wait was long and it's way too cold to come here in the winter

I had an empanada like dish which was highly recommended and was so delicious. On street parking.

We ordered Cuban sandwiches and food to go. The rice & beans & chicken plate was good. Lots of flavor. The toasted bread for the Cuban sandwiches was great. I am disappointed that each sandwich only contained one piece of ham, one piece of cheese. one tomato halved, and a very small amount of thinly sliced pernil. They were dry. There was no mustard or pickles on the sandwich which would classify it as a Cuban to me. I asked for these condiments & got ketchup & mustard packets. Before we started eating there was a bottle of hot sauce on our table but for some reason it was taken away when the drinks were brought out. Next time I'll order the mofongo & hopefully they're not as light on the filling with that.

It has the look of a mom and pop cafeteria. There is a lot of movement, the place is usually full. Make sure to come before 5:30 because by then the best food is gone. Great place for grab and go. Make sure to have cash on hand as they don't take debit cards. Recommend: Mofongo, Chicken and cheese empanadas, Sorullo (ground corn filled with cheese-deep fried).

Warm, clean and casual place away from the traffic and hustle of downtown. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. We ordered 3 empanadas to start: chicken, beef, and the El Pueblito, beans, rice, sweet plantains, pork rind. All were good, but really loved the El Puebilto. Coarse corn meal coating really accentuated all of the delicious fusion of flavors within. Super. 2 simple salads of iceberg lettuce, onions, shredded carrots started off the feast. Perfect. Next up was the Bandejita Vegetariana: rice, beans, 2 eggs, sweet fried plantains, avocado and corn cake. I was missing avocado, but did not even realize until later as this is a filling meal! Rice cooked perfectly, beans had nice flavor. My dining partner had a pork cutlet, beans, rice, sweet plantains, salad. Loved the seasoning and crunchiness of the cutlet. Generous portions at most reasonable prices. Relaxed, inviting restaurant which I recommend trying.

The Best Jamaican Food on Earth…read more I've been coming here forever and the food is unlike anywhere else I have ever been. I have been to Jamaica and nothing is close. I have brought friends here who live/ lived in Jamaica and they are blown away. I also lived in the Jamacian area in Harlem and never found a Jamaican Restaurant even close to this place. The staff are friendly and get the food out quickly. There is almost a couple people there and they have no problem handling the traffic. Place definitely has a vibe. Bonus it is down by Seaside Park so when it's warm enough I love grabbing my food to go and eating it in the park. Food: -Jerk Chicken This is by far my go to. If you can't handle a LOT of heat then this is not for you. 1st time my wife had it she couldn't hang but I made her try it again and again and eventually she built a tolerance and absolutely loves it. -Curry Goat My 2nd Favorite. Not too much heat and very tasty. Careful of the bones but the flavor is incredible. If you can't handle the heat of the Jerk this is a great option. -Stewed Chicken Good option. I don't get it too often as I prefer the Jerk but if I'm not in the mood for the heat or just want to switch it up this is another amazingly flavorful option. -Jamaican Patty's All of them are great Spicy or Mild Beef, Chicken, Veggie I usually get a patty with my order and rotate my choice with my mood or what looks best that day. Final Thoughts If you haven't been to Rootsman you don't know what Real Jamaican Food is. Get here ASAP!! Caution: Food is Amazing & Addictive
