The joy I'm feeling as I type this review is indescribable. FINALLY, I have found a PROPER Jamaican restaurant with PROPER JERK food and for a reasonable price. The chef is in the back GRILLINGGGGG that meat- oxtail, chicken, goat meat, beef ribs. Meat, that I as a Jamaican, never imagined could be jerked, they jerk and it's delicious. The flavors and the tender meat- just wow. This is literally a gem in for the state of NJ for sure. I'm telling ya'll, I have been to MANYYYYY restaurants and the jerk is always baked. People are out here eating baked chicken, calling it jerk and NO THANKS. I'm so grateful to R'SZN Jerk Center. If you want real, authentic, Jamaican jerk, this is the place to go. I promise you won't be disappointed. I wish I had pictures to attach but, it's gone, finished, and eaten lol read more

I unfortunately had to change my high opinion of this establishment. Disgusting service via phone when I called to find out why my order kept getting pushed back. Waited over an hour for my order..when I called, the manager who is apparently at a totally different location, told me they were out of jerk chicken and that I needed to cancel the order. I explained to her if I canceled the order I'm going to be charged. I also explained to her that as a merchant, she has the option of letting me know VIA THE APP that they're out of the item AND then cancelling the order..She stated that she can do neither, which is a blatant lie..!!!! I ended up having to cancel the order and now I have to dispute the charge with my bank since getting a refund from Ubereats is NOT an option if customers cancel the order. If you don't want to be charged for food that you may not get, I suggest you DONT order from here!! read more

Big flavors, strong execution, one clear standout move. This place delivers bold, satisfying Caribbean comfort food that clearly knows what it is doing. The flavors are deep, the portions are generous, and the food is made to be enjoyed, not rushed. The jerk chicken is well seasoned, smoky, and tender with real depth. You can taste the time and care that went into it. The rice and peas are solid, but once you try the Rasta pasta, it becomes obvious where the kitchen really shines. Creamy, flavorful, and far more memorable with the jerk seasoning. If you ever see jerked oxtail on the menu, that is the move. Tender, saucy, and rich in a way that makes everything else on the plate slow down. This is a spot I would happily return to, especially knowing exactly what to order next time. Strong food, generous portions, and a menu where a few choices truly stand out. Very good, and even better when ordered right. read more

Jerk chicken fresh. I got it towards closing and it was still fresh and hot. Sweet jerk sauce still spicy. Great flavor the pasta creamy Parmesan taste I literally love it. It is also just the right amount of spice. The quantity of noodles wasn't what I was expecting it was not a lot of noodles. Definitely should add some more noodles for $21. The food is very good tho. Just wished it was more pasta. Not sure about the service as I ordered through door dash but the food was still hot when I received it. read more

Stopped by here by chance since I have seen this place pop up on a couple social media pages. They mentioned this was one of the best Jamaican joints in the area. By no means am I a connoisseur on Jamaican food but this was really good. The Jerk chicken was juicy and had a nice grill/char taste with a good kick of that jerk marinade. Also had the Rasta Pasta which had a delicious cream based sauce and had a hint of spice from the bell peppers. Overall I would definitely come back for this place if I am in the area. read more

If you want GOOD food, you need to stop by! I heard they recently opened and a friend and I stopped in to check them out. WOW! I ordered some jerk chicken, a drink and a red velvet cake! WOW! I can't wait to travel back that way to try them out! Its a small space, so it isn't a "dine-in" spot. They did have some outside seating, but not for a lot of people. I loved the backroom wall as well as the decor in the insider. They have this cute wall with their sign so you can get that Instagram picture. It was nice and clean. They had the grill going in the front which further let me know that they were cooking COOKING! Try them out! Don't walk, RUN! read more

Good jerk chicken, right off the grill, not crazy about the sauce... a little sweeter than i'd like. Spice level was on point. I live 15miles away, but i will be going when i can. Didn't care for the cabbage... overcooked. read more

I've slept on this place and now I'm sad that when I leave New Jersey I won't be able to have it anymore. Today was my 1st time going even though I follow their IG page. Wow.....the food was absolutely amazing. I ordered the jerk chicken and beef ribs with a side of rasta pasta. The seasoning was on point as well as the taste. Sauce is optional but I feel as though it takes away from the true flavor. 10-10 this place is a gem. read more

The jerk chicken is amazing. Sometimes it's a little bit dry but I feel like they need to make a type of green spicy sauce instead of the sweet sauce all the time the Rasta pasta used to be really good when they first open now it taste like they put a bag of sugar in the Rasta pasta hsd ti spit it right out , and they should consider putting the meat is Halal. They will get more customers. read more

A hidden gem in Irvington on 15th Street. Your food is made to order so plan ahead or call in your order. The jerk sauce was delicious...I wished I had more....especially over my rice. A must try when you're in the mood for jerk. read more

The food would be good if they didn't put so much salt . And it way tooo spicy and a little too expensive

Jerk chicken and Rasta pasta are the perfect combo. Would highly recommend getting both of them. Also the food is priced perfectly. You get exactly the amount of food for the price point read more

First time trying their food after hearing good reviews. I'd say Yes, the jerk chicken is very flavorful and fresh. Rasta pasta is tasty not spicy at all. Also the cabbage is very flavorful. A solid 4 I'd recommend read more

THE FOOD, OMG THE FOOD!!!! I can't stress enough how delicious it is This is a must go to place. read more

Great food and service I would recommend it highly nit the parking that's another story

The best jerk food in the business. You can tell they really know what they are doing in that kitchen. Sometimes wait time can be long but it's well worth the wait. God Bless Jamaica read more

Ordered cabbage this time. I paid close to $9 for two orders. The portions were so small that I actually called to complain. Overhead cost can be expensive but cabbage doesn't cost that much. They were very nice on the phone promising better quantity next time. However, my last visit was similar. As much as I like the food, I'm moving on. There are other establishments where my money will be better spent. read more

Heard about it this spot late last month, went to check it out and must say, I was pleased. Jerk chicken is very good. Was looking for a new spot after the one I was going to closed. This place did not disappoint. They do real drum jerk chicken, this is not oven baked. Love this spot. Parking is an issue so recommend calling ahead and just picking up. read more

Jerk chicken was great! Fresh and well seasoned. Grill right outside it's definitely authentic jerk. The cabbage was good and fresh also. Rice and peas could've used gravy. Plantains were good too. Will definitely be back. read more

We Order and the presentation of the Jerk Oxtail was define... But the portion or quantity was terribly ridiculous. We received chopped in 1/2 half 4 Jerk Oxtails for $30. I am disappointed as well as my staff. Ridiculous. read more
