You order at the counter first, then find a table and sit down. They bring the food to you when it's ready. Fountain drinks are self serve, so you can refill them as needed. The person at the counter was helpful when we were deciding what to order, which made the process easier. The food came out fairly quickly and everything was hot, fresh and very flavorful. We got the mixed chicken, yams, fries and mac and cheese and all of it was sublime. The chicken stood out the most, well seasoned and cooked just right. The fried plantains and hot rolls are worth adding. Both were very good and complemented the meal well. There was also a man playing trumpet and a DJ, which added a nice background energy. It felt lively without being overwhelming and it made the experience fun for me and the kids. Overall, it was a smooth, predictable setup with great food and a comfortable atmosphere. I would go back.

After seeing the social media hype and the many awards my wife and I had to try Jerk Shack out…read more I tried the mixed chicken plate to see if it lived up to the hype. I'll start with the good: The jerk chicken was delicious. You can tell the chicken is marinated. It's fall off the bone tender. The jerk is super flavorful and warm without being too hot. I could bottle the jerk seasoning! The Mac and cheese was also great. The noodles weren't over cooked and it was creamy and flavorful. I also liked the interior. It was unique and artistic! The rest felt like a miss to me. After trying the jerk chicken I had high expectations for the fried chicken but was disappointed. The fried chicken was oily and lacked that "crunch" you want from good fried chicken. The batter wasn't very seasoned. Maybe that's just compared to the jerk but I was hoping for more. It also wasn't nearly as good texture wise. I tried the masala fries and was underwhelmed with them as well. Average extra crispy fries with some light seasoning. We also tried the Coco rolls. They were okay. Basically a yeast roll with sweetened butter. Not bad but pretty bland. Service was fairly friendly.

But now that I live in a bigger city, I thought, "Let me go ahead and try some real, authentic Jamaican beef patties!" And WOW, these did not disappoint! They were so, so good. The meat inside was incredibly flavorful and cooked perfectly, and the crust was super flaky and crispy. I genuinely enjoyed every bite. I'll definitely be coming back to try the oxtails and some of their other food. If the beef patties are any indication, I'm excited to see what else they have!

The place is filled with Jamaicans! One group comes in and one group leaves! I was in my little heaven of cultures! If you come here my suggestion is to pair your meal with a cola champagne! Do not question it just do it! Everything is served in disposable plates and containers. We didn't seem to mind it. I will definitely be back!

The ginger beer was spicy but it wasn't anything that I would order again. The shrimp, cabbage and rice and peas were delicious. The beef patty was a little burned but still good. I'll return to try their other items in the future. I'm grateful that a Jamaican restaurant opened up a little closer to me and I didn't have to drive further out to San Pedro and 410 or 151 and Military.
