Used to love it but just got the worst food poisoning from them. Eat here if you want to throw up all night...!

Ordered food from here via Uber Eats. They had a Buy1 get 1 free on Jerk Chicken. I am Jamaican. This place did not disappoint. The food was fresh and flavourful. I was surprised at how fast it was delivered to my hotel. From the pictures online, they restaurant seems new and clean. read more

I've been wanting to go to the location in aventura and was very happy they opened in downtown miami. Parking on the street is limited but there are a bunch of lots nearby. If you live in the brickell/downtown area you could easily take metro mover to government center and walk. We got the jerk chicken, curry chicken and jerk Mac n cheese. All of the food was delicious and you get a good sized portion. Everything was seasoned perfectly and tasted fresh. I tried the rude boy sauce which was amazing. I like spicy food myself and didn't think it was too spicy. The rice n peas were tasty compared to other Jamaican places we have been too. Really liked the plaintains because of the pineapple taste they have compared to most other Latin restaurants. Lastly, the jerk max n cheese. It was cheesy and had that jerk chicken tase. Overall, all of the food was very good and was priced reasonably. If you want juices or coffee you can also get to too. The interior space was nicely done and they have a large dining area for you to sit at. When you first walk in it's very similar looking to a chipotle where you pick your rice, then protein and then remaining sides and pay at the end. The owner and all of the staff were very friendly when we first walked which is typical of a Jamaican restaurant. Overall, this is a great spot when you're looking for good Jamaican food. I will be coming back here again read more

Amazing Caribbean food. It was my first time trying it and it definitely helped with my hangover. Will be there again soon

Our party of 10 arrived shortly before the 11am opening to celebrate our coworker's County service award. Samantha was kind enough to allow us inside to escape the heat. And then, when we went to order, we found out County employees receive a ten percent discount! The food was excellent for everyone but I'm certain the service we received beforehand enhanced the flavor even further! read more

I was wanting to try Jrk! for a while but live a bit far. So worth the trip, I had the vegan jerk which is super rare in a Jamaican restaurant. Normally, you would just get vegetables and that's it. Wow. I went with a friend that was as impressed as I was. Loved the rice and peas. They have a nice selection and the portion sizes can range from enough to large. I wish they had home made iced tea but that wasn't an option. So basically a bowl place that you can modify according to your taste. Not too spicy but very flavourful, I really would recommend that you stop by. Service was speedy and super efficient. They have a small dining room toward the back that is also another restaurant after 4pm. Parking is street only and can be an issue during high traffic times. Really happy.... read more

We ate on the 'speakeasy' side Mangrove. The food was immaculate! As a Jamaican I consider myself a tough Caribbean food critic and I would go again and recommend it a friend. The drinks were delicious but balanced in flavor. The food was not too spicy, and festival was a little softer than im accustomed to but i still enjoyed it, the curry oxtail was my personal stand out dish. The service was good, they checked on us the right amount. The aesthetic was a nice dimly lit lounge feel. Nice for a romantic evening. read more

The jerk fried rice with Jerk chicken and vegetables is delicious . The food is hot and perfect portion. The best jerk chicken ever

Had a chance to visit while I was home for Thanksgiving break. I was able to try the curry, chicken, rice, cabbage, corn, & pineapple banjo salsa. I was very pleased with my meal and the portion sizes. read more

This place is phenomenal! The best lunch I have had in a really long time! The spices on the jerk chicken blew my mind. It was pure heaven. The plantains were perfect in every way.... Slightly caramelized on the outside, a bit sweet, with warm spices to complement. The environment was also exceptional. The well trained staff and the beautiful decor made me feel so welcome. It was a pleasure to dine here. I hope you will go check them out very soon! read more

First time eating at jrk.. Andres greeted me, super friendly and happy, explained the portions to me. He deserves a raise if he hasn't gotten one already.. food is amazing and the place itself is clean. Good spot read more

I went back to Jrk on April 17th for lunch. This time the line was nearly out the door. The lady preparing the food moved quickly;however, the cashier was a bit slow. The dining area still looks nice and people were dining in but I had my food to go. The oxtails were really good and I love that they give plenty of food especially for the price. read more

I went to Jrk today solely because I had a craving for Jamaican patties. I love them, but don't eat them very often. I got a beef patty and a jerk chicken patty. They were delicious! The crust was perfect, airy and flaky. These can get a little messy to eat, but boy are they yummy! My favorite one was the jerk chicken. I will def be back to get more of these and try their bowls as well. Also they are pretty big in size and they are priced well! read more

The restaurants is combined eating and bar at night. You can pick rice, vegetables and meat onto the plate and then you take your purchased meal to the bar section to dine in. The Jerk chicken is legit and it is chopped into tiny pieces. This is great for those who dont like to get their hands dirty. I also had the Chicken curry with curry sauce poured over rice and beans. This was also delicious. I would come again for sure as the price was reasonable too. I almost forgot to mention the beef patty. This was better than most places as the curst was perfect and the filling was not too runny and not too dry. We had seconds. read more

We had a really good experience here. It's a little confusing because they're also using the Mangrove brand but Jrk is on the side of the building. It's an intimate space that seats ~30 people. The menu is slim but that's not a bad thing. We had patties, both chicken and beef, and they tasted really good. Also, jerk wings, jerk mac & cheese, rice and peas and festival. Everything tasted good. The Mac & cheese had jerk chicken inside and was a healthy portion. The wings were baked and had great flavor. The festival was hot and fresh. Definitely looking forward to returning. I also used the inKind app for a discount. Parking is a hassle downtown, however there is a public garage two blocks away. read more

Had food at Mangrove right next door and it was excellent. Picked up food from here and it is much cheaper. If you want to sit for drinks and dinner Mangrove would be it. Just note it's obviously a lot pricier. But this place is excellent and the portions are good. read more

Ordered through Uber eats for dinner and I got the jerk chicken bowl with plantains, jerk fried rice, and corn with the rude boy sauce & a side of the tropics sauce. The portion was great, plenty of chicken, very flavorful, and the perfect amount of spice! The fried rice didn't really seem fried to me, but maybe because I'm from Chicago. The tropics sauce also wasn't very good in my opinion and didn't have any spice like their website said. Overall, I'd definitely go again for dine-in next time I'm in Miami! read more

Food and ambiance are amazing ! Love the concept for Caribbean food . The jerk chicken was delicious and the rice and peas was tasty

I visited the downtown location today when I found out one opened down here by my job. The place was packed but they move very fast. I ordered the jerk chicken bowl with rice and peas, crunchy cabbage, mango pineapple salsa and plaintains. My coworker ordered oxtail bowl with rice and peas same toppings that I had. The jerk chicken bowl was just ok the jerk chicken was flavorful, but i couldn't get pass the chicken diced into pieces (small pieces) with no bones so the fat that's in the chicken thighs already was not cooked thoroughly for me, so i had to constantly pull the soft fat off the chicken, the rice and peas had no flavor, but the other toppings were good. My coworker said the oxtails were decent. I will return to try the oxtails. The food kind of gives a cafeteria vibe. read more

Today was my 2nd visit at Jrk and man was it great I had to leave a honest review. I got a curry chicken and my partner got the oxtail. We both loved our meals. Greg at behind the register was extremely kind and greeted me once I walked in. The portion I received was crazy, closing my lid was difficult. Just a 10/10 experience. Thanks to this team for amazing food, service and overall experience! read more

Excellent food. Love the rice plantains veggies shrimp. Great atmosphere too. Happy place.

We were a little hesitant as we walked in. It sort of reminds me of a Jamaican Chipotle. But I'd take this spot any day over Chipotle! You build your plate as you go. Base, protein, toppings, then sauces. Holy cow! Talk about flavor! The jerk chicken was perfection. Rice & peas, the perfect base. The plantains, cabbage, and broccoli paired so well with my dish. Topped with the sweet hot sauce....ooh wee!!!!! The mac n cheese was bomb, as well as the beef patty. read more

The aesthetic of the restaurant is lovely. The environment is also very welcoming. The food was 7.9/10 as far as the bbq chicken wrap & jerk chicken bowl that I consumed. The flavor was almost there but not as jerk authentic as it could be. Everything seems pretty decent, so why the 3 stars, right? Well after consuming this food, I was sick for 3 days, vomiting and diarrhea for 3 days straight. For this reason, I won't be back... not worth the illness. read more

The food was soooooo good. I was actually impressed, the food was so good. Everything tasted great, they had a jerk lamb appetizer which was a special that was so good and the jerk chicken Mac and cheese is probably the first of its kind that I can actually say I liked. For entrees we had the salmon with champagne sauce which by the way, when the waiter said it was his favorite item on the menu, boy he did not lie. It was amazing and truly different than anything you will taste anywhere else; that sauce really takes it over the top. My husband ordered the curry oxtail and that was also good and a nice portion size. The drinks were good and I can't lie the price point was not crazy like another Wynwood Caribbean restaurant. We were impressed, the service was attentive and the vibes were everything. The whole dinner I was rocking in my chair. They had a DJ that came on about 10. But at that point we were stuffed and ready to go. I'm so happy we came here. There isn't any places with this kind of good Caribbean food and vibes at good prices south of Pembroke Pines. We will defiantly be back! read more

Was closed 8am. Said it was open. Sad to have missed the experience while in Miami. Here for a cruise.

Love this place! Whether in the daytime for lunch or Mangrove at night you can never go wrong. Great food and good vibes. Staff is amazing.

Food is good...a couple people of the staff can use sole attitude adjustments. And they definitely say the open up at 11:00 but will still have the doors locked 15 mins after 11. Maybe just say you open at 11:30 if you need more prep time. read more

EVERYTHING is 10/10. The bbq jerk chicken is very savory but spicy, if you cannot take spicy do not take it just go with the simple jerk chicken, it's as savory! The setting of the place is aesthetically pleasing, and you'll definitely get great pictures literally at every corner of the place! Honestly my favorite Jamaican restaurant ever! The service is amazing, everyone is friendly and professional . Oh also they give a lot of food! So price isn't something I can complain about. read more

Visited JRK! with colleagues from county government and had a fantastic experience. The staff kindly let us in early so we didn't have to wait in the hot sun--super hospitable. They plated each order with care, accommodating everyone's dietary needs. I had the jerk shrimp with jasmine rice--absolutely delicious. The sweet virgin margaritas were a hit too. We'll definitely be back! read more
