This place as quickly become my go to spot for Jamaican cuisine it's great for a takeout and they do have some options to sit in. I will say get here early or call ahead of time because they often run out of things on the menu. When they do have stuff in stock, it is delicious. I absolutely loved their oxtail and my sister said they're curry goat is amazing. They never seem to have festival available in the patio seem to go pretty quickly as well so again call ahead of time or come early, but definitely don't miss out read more

I came here and the food was decent and came out very quick. It was homestyle cooking. I was hoping for bigger portions as me and my son shared a large size but it seemed it would of been better to get the smaller individual sized one. The jerk was not Spicy at all and I was hoping for more kick, had more of a sweeter taste to it. Plaintains we're good. Just my honest review here. read more

Jerk Spot Lounge - Caribbean Near Me - Aloma, Florida

After the original owner reopened, everything changed for the better. The food is finally back to the original recipes and you can truly taste the difference -- fresh, flavorful, and just like it used to be. Every dish was delicious and full of authentic taste. So happy to see this place back to what made it special in the first place. Highly recommend giving it another try! read more

It was my first time trying this cuisine & it was very delicious. I look forward to trying it again!

The food is authentic & delicious! We had this for our office lunch and enjoyed the Beef, Chicken, Shrimp & Veggie Patties, Oxtail, Jerk Oxtail, Curry Chicken, Jerk Chicken, Stew Chicken with cabbage, rice & peas. The owner/cook, Winston Garwood help bring the food out to my car and made sure it was secure to avoid spills. We are looking forward to doing future lunches here. There is very nice seating inside if you want to have stay and enjoy your meal. read more

The food was great. The stew chicken, rice, and peas was the bomb! Mac and cheese was tasteful as well. Good job Winston.

We wanted something different. Located on the corner of Aloma and 436. I think most people order for pickup, but there are plenty of tables to dine in. They only have restroom. They play music at a moderate level. It's a simply decorated place. My husband ordered the stew chicken and said it was okay. They didn't have jerk oxtail. I ordered the regular oxtail, which I thought was good. It wasn't dry. It was nice with the white rice. I would come back to try other dishes on the menu. read more

Red flags there were no customers, when you walk in you don't really smell the food. My family is Caribbean so don't call it jerk chicken if it's not. When I arrived at 4:11pm, I was advised the jerk chicken wasn't ready. So I asked what else do they recommend she said the jerk chicken. so I waited 30mins. Small Jerk Chicken- tasted like it was bbq chicken with a jerk sauce (store bought sauce at that). Jerk chicken needs to be cooked on a grill to give it that backyard smokiness. And based with the sauce through the cooking process. Rice& peas- no flavor- no coconut, no ginger, no thyme. Cabbage- still crunchy, lack depth in flavor. So definitely not the cooked all the way, reminded me of a cabbage salad. I ate it, but will not return because if I want Jamaican food I want the real thing. read more

This restaurant is located in a plaza. I pass by pretty often. The lady taking orders was pleasant. It was pretty early so it was empty. I ordered two patties which didn't make it home lol. They were tasty fresh and were filled pretty good. I also ordered curry goat and a roti. The goat was falling off the bone tender but not a lot of seasoning. The roti was a bit hard for my liking but paired with the goat it was good. I would come back not the best Jamaican food but overall it was good. read more

If you're looking to fill your Jamaican food craving definitely don't miss the jerk spot lounge! This lounge has very chill vibe, authentic food, the owners are friendly and have a passion for cooking! The jerk chicken plate was plentiful. The two sides I chose was the Mac & cheese and the cabbage. The jerk chicken was seasoned well and had a kick of heat. It was a little drier than I would have like, but still really good. The goat soup had veggies & dumplings in it. I didn't get many goat pieces in my soup, but the flavor was very comforting. I also got two patties - one spicy chicken & a beef. The chicken as my favorite, but the meat in both was very pleasant. read more

I've been staying in the area for about 2 years & I just came here for the first yesterday and everything was amazing from the jerk chicken to the cabbage. I literally just left there today to get another lol the service was amazing and the vibes in there made me feel at home read more

$22 for 3 small fatty pieces of oxtail and mushy rice. Literally feels like I'm eating dog food.

I have gone to this location a couple of times and it was okay not bad on flavor! Recently I went and honestly I was actually very disappointed, The lady in the front was very nice amazing customer service the food was very stale, the chicken was literally bones and the bits of meat were so hard not good, the rice was flavorless and dry! I also had the jerk pork but that was actually a 10/10! Amazing flavor inside and out the jerk pork! I wasn't too happy this time around I believe the chicken was old I had a stomach ache for most of the night! Overall I give this location 5/10 not too bad but sometimes they slack on the food! Also Customer Service is 10/10 Amazing workers! Food 3.5/10 read more

As a Jamaican, I'm very disappointed in this restaurant consider it a Jerk Spot. The jerk chicken was nasty and was not fully cooked. Even though it's from the oven, not a actual grill lady attitude was rude too when I told her the chicken was not cooked. She said what you gonna do with it. Not even asked to give me back a refund or you know apologize, I regret tipping her because she didn't deserve that. read more

Jerk Spot Lounge - suppose to be jerk pork - Caribbean Near Me - Aloma, Florida

The worst jerk chicken I've ever had,I'm not a picky eater either and I gave this place a try and I'm highly disappointed. After waiting half an hour for the jerk chicken order and to get that plus the driest rice and cold Mac and cheese. read more

This was my 3rd & final time coming to this location. I ordered veggie (Cabbage) rice & peas. The rice tasted bland all 3 times. I don't ever taste any of the basic ingredients like coconut,thyme or ginger. It didn't taste authentic at ALL! However the service was great. I just wish they take pride in seasoning the food the true jamaican way ‍ read more

It has potential and I've had a solid meal from here. Definitely inconsistent sides, do yourself a favor and get the white rice. Hard no on plantain and rice/peas. Proteins have good flavor profiles. Highlights and disappointment on every combo. Just order what you want, order a side not a combo. read more

That jerk spot is back and the food is definitely improved. The new venue is very up to date and modernized. I would've taken a picture of my food but clearly it didn't sit on the table very long. The servings has increased since closing. Definitely give this spot if your looking for quality authentic Jamaican food. read more

Yeah the owner put his foot in this food for sure. Will definitely be back. Best jerk I've had since moving here from Chicago

Best Jerk Chicken and Jerk Ox Tail that I've eaten. Mac N Cheese on point

If I could leave NO STARS I absolutely would. The food was absolutely terrible. I placed a to go order over the phone when I got there I hardly had any food in my plate. I dang there had to argue with the lady to put more food in my plate. Finally, she changed her attitude went in the back and got more food. Also, since when is rice and peas considered as a side with oxtails? anyway, the food was very very nasty. It was cold. The oxtails had a whole bunch of fat hardly any meat. Staff was very attitudey when I walked in, not welcoming at all, the place was dark, and dingy I didn't like the vibes. The food was terrible, Cabbage was dry, the macaroni and cheese that I ordered as a side was very nasty and old and spoiled tasting ( how does cheese completely separate from the noodle??????????). The food also smelled spoiled after moving the oxtails and eating some of the rice. This was the worst Caribbean food I had ever had in my life do not order from here you might get very sick I should not have left a tip, but I am a good person and they probably need it more than I do. I Will never order from here again ever read more

Love the rice and peas with curry goat and cabbage!!!!! It's delicious recommend anyone who loves good food to come here

Don't waste your money. Mac and cheese dry, ordered jerk chicken and received one leg and all bones. Don't waste your time.

After seeing a post on twitter about jamaican oxtail, I immediately had a craving for some. So I hopped on my mobile delivery apps to find a good jamaican spot to order from, something new. I came across Jerk Spot Lounge and after looking at its interesting menu and website, I decided to give it a chance, I ordered an large express oxtail meal that was to come with cornbread and cabbage, and I chose peas and rice for my rice dish. When my food arrived and I opened the container, words could not describe how disappointed I was, I received a container full if rice and 4 pieces of the smallest, thinnest, driest, unseasoned pieces of oxtail (I'm not even sure if it could be called oxtail). It lacks color, and tasted a bit overcooked or leftover. The amount of oxtail was pathetic. I was so upset over these oxtail I didn't even realize I didn't get my sides that were included with the meal, no cabbage or cornbread in sight. I suggest they study some of the other jamaican spots in Orlando and make better changes immediately. This place was not It! read more

Jerk Spot Lounge - Dry ass thin ass oxtail - Caribbean Near Me - Aloma, Florida

I happened to stop by last night and I hit the Jacpot. They had a live Reggae Band that was phenomenal; and filled up the belly with the best island meal I've had in Central Florida. I had the Oxtail and they were unbelievable. My friend had the Stew Chicken and she also agreed it was the best in town! read more
