I bought jerk chicken and it was burnt and tough to chew. If you order from this place check your food before exiting.

The food was delicious! The oxtail was so flavorful and falling off the bone. Highly recommend!!

The service was great. The food was a bit below average. I got the brown stew chicken because they were out of oxtails and rice and a couple of other items. It was around 6:00pm. The workers were very apologetic, but you never get a second chance to make a first impression. I drove 20 minutes out of my way and it wasn't worth it. My chicken wasn't hot it was more sweet than spicy cut up chicken drum sticks and the plantains were hot dark in color and they were a bit burnt tasting. The bread was really good. I still haven't found a Jamaican restaurant that is better than Milton's on Slauson in L.A they closed years ago. I will go back to try it again. I went back today and got the oxtails plate. Everything is delicious. I got there early around 4Pm. Great job guys. Thank you read more

First time going here ! service was impeccable and food melted in my mouth with each bite. Thanks to Leroy for the great customer service and nice hospitality. New Jamaican restaurant unlocked read more

I hate that this place is a little hidden its in the corner so I've never seen it before. When I looked up the address I was able to find it. Today I ordered the oxtail plate for around $30 Oxtail is always pricey but it was worth it. Super delicious and tender I got it with all veggies but it does come with rice and a side. The lady who took my order was nice and getting my plate did not take long. Based off this one plate I'd recommend and I have to go back to try the jerk chicken or some other protein. read more

Food was very hot and fresh. The establishment was very clean. The only thing that I was a little disappointed about was the jerk chicken had BBQ sauce instead of jerk sauce. That's the point of jerk chicken other than that the chicken was flavorful and you can tell it was grilled to perfection I just really wanted that authentic tangy spicy jerk sauce. Please get jerk sauce! read more

Rude Jerk Kitchen - Oxtail plate - Caribbean Near Me - Perris, California

Ordered for my birthday party. Jerk chicken, rice & peas, cabbage, and pasta pasta. Food was received hot & on time. Flavors and quality was consistent with my prior meals at the space. My guest thought we cooked at home and were shocked to learn it was catered! Party was for 60 people and barely anything remained at the end of the night. I had to give out the business info repeatedly all this week after getting texts asking where the food came from. Kudos to the owner and kitchen staff for taking excellent care of us. Also..the vegetable patties are DELICIOUS...had one while they packed my items. read more

Nice welcoming staff. We went to try the chicken patties. We bought 4 of them. The flavor was good, crust was good but only a whisper of chicken inside each one. It felt like I was eating a curry soup hot pocket. Put some actual chicken in it and you're winning. read more

Good food Great portions Great drinks Good information from Cashier as it was our first time eating Jamaican food. Will return Ox tail was great Rasta pasta with jerk chicken was delightful read more

Tried the jerk chicken and it was full of flavor--nothing bland here. Prices are reasonable for the portions and quality. I'd definitely come back and recommend this spot read more

I rated it a 5 because of the Jerk chicken, beef pattie and fried wings which looked like they came off of a turkey were awesome. The service was also awesome. The only not even complaint is I had the rasta pasta and that was even good but the red beans and rice was my letdown. I have been to Jamaica and had Jerk chicken and the red beans and rice and they were to die for but Rude Jerks red beans and rice were just lacking a little flavor and the rice was not cooked all the way. I will be back and hopefully they read this review and work on that, then I will he fully satisfied. read more

Honestly the food is pretty mid. On top of the management being disrespectful upon asking simple questions about what I want to order it really wasn't much of an experience you're better off buying a tv dinner and watching a shitty movie at home don't waste your bills. read more

Stopped for the first time ,EVERYTHING was so good. Party of 5 all different plates and not one complaint. So happy to have good Jamaican food near Menifee. We will definitely be back. read more

First, I want to say the food here is excellent. The flavor is amazing--from the rice and peas to the plantains, nothing feels skimpy. The curry goat has great flavor and texture, and the jerk chicken has the perfect level of heat. My only suggestion on the food side is that it would be nice if the restaurant offered barbecue sauce or pepper sauce to go with the jerk chicken. The reason for my two-star rating is entirely due to the service and repeated order mistakes. A couple of months ago, I went specifically for curry goat and was told it wasn't available, so I settled for jerk chicken. I recently tried again and ordered curry goat over the phone. When I arrived, my order was prepared as jerk chicken. The staff member corrected it and brought out another plate, which I assumed was curry goat. I paid and left, but when I got home I discovered it was actually curry chicken. That means my order was incorrect twice in the same visit. When I called the restaurant to explain the issue, I was told there was nothing they could do except apologize. While I appreciate the apology, it doesn't fix the fact that I paid for something specific and didn't receive it. Getting orders right the first time is basic customer service. The food here has a lot of potential, and there aren't many West Indian restaurants in the Inland Empire area. I genuinely want this place to succeed, but consistent order accuracy and better service are necessary if the restaurant wants to build a strong reputation. Despite the food service errors, I will still support this restaurant. I heard the owner was tired of having to go to LA for Jamaican food, and wanted to bring some of his home here. Anyone with that type of mindset has what it takes to make it big. Big up yuhself! read more

Now this tastes like home!!! Still same generous portions but now you get transplanted to Yaad with every bite! They even have Sorrel now! Highly recommend again but now for those who want to have a true Jamaican culinary experience! read more

We just had lunch here today and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We tried the jerk chicken with peas and rice, the Rasta pasta, and a chicken patty -- and every single item was full of flavor. I was a little nervous about the spice level because I've had Jamaican food before that was so spicy it upset my stomach. That was not the case here at all. The food had amazing flavor with just the right amount of heat -- a slow, pleasant warmth on your lips and tongue that fades nicely without overwhelming the dish. The chicken patty was flaky and perfectly baked, filled with incredible curry chicken that was rich and well-seasoned. The jerk chicken plate was a generous portion, and the chicken was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. The peas and rice were seasoned perfectly and very filling, and the Rasta pasta was cooked just right with a creamy, flavorful sauce. The space was clean and nicely decorated but a bit small inside but since the sun hits the front, it got warm while we waited. That said, the staff were very friendly and working quickly to get orders out. I'd recommend calling ahead and picking up, as seating is limited to a small window counter that most people use while waiting. I hope they do really well so they can expand to a space with more seating. We will definitely be back and can't wait to try the oxtails or goat next time! read more

I visited this establishment for the 1st time today & I must say EVERYTHING was on point! I got the Jerk Chicken combo with rice & peas & yams. They don't skimp on the portion size either. I also ordered some meat patties to go & that curry chicken was fire. I will def be back to try other items on the menu. If you're looking for some good Jamaican grub, give this place a try. read more

New place in Perris . Food flavorful and not too spicy. A must try. Rice is full a coconut flavor read more

I'm not one to leave reviews but here's my experience. Called in order around 3-3:30pm they were out of yams side dish and the plantains which goes with ur order. I said screw it I'll do without the plantains get the restaurant all was going smooth at least I thought they even have military/law enforcement discount. I pay and leave I'm pulling up to my house 25 min away and I get a call, they forgot to give me an entree and meat pies (my fault i guess for not opening the bag and confirming each item 3curry chicken plates 1 Rasta pasta jerk 4 meat pies). Told me if I want. To come back and pay for it. I drove off 25 minutes away and u barely found out I didn't get my stuff? I said screw it I'll go back because I was ordering for family coming over. I'm fine with paying for my stuff but when I asked if the military discount was applied she responded I already gave u a discount earlier.. So not only did I drive back off your mistake u couldn't honor my discount for that other half of meal. Wild so that brought me here. Food was good at least, pasta watery and overcooked get the rice. read more

The best Jamaican food I ever had! No lie, I'm heading back today to try something new, I've had the jerk chicken and the oxtail! read more

Rude Jerk Kitchen - Oxtail plate - Caribbean Near Me - Perris, California

Let me tell you I am so glad i don't have to drive far anymore for some good Jamaican food ! Great portion size can't beat it for the price. I ordered jerk chicken, rice & pea with steamed cabbage and patties. They even put some of the oxtail gravy on my rice. So flavorful & cooked with LOVE. My family & I will definitely be back ! read more

I've been coming to Rude Jerk Kitchen for a while now, and overall the food is solid. The jerk chicken and oxtail are consistently flavorful, and the rice and peas are always a great side. The banana pudding is also really good and definitely one of the best desserts they offer. That said, the biggest issue here is consistency. The Rasta pasta is very hit or miss sometimes it's perfectly creamy and fresh, but other times it's watery or looks like it's been sitting for hours. They really need to be more consistent with that dish. The food in general can feel the same way sometimes it tastes like it was made with real care, and other times it feels like it was rushed just to get orders out. Another thing that could improve is the customer service. Not all, but some of the staff could work on being more welcoming. At times it feels like a few employees have an attitude or look like they don't want to be there, which affects the overall experience. Overall, this place has great potential because the core food items are very good, but improving consistency and customer service would make a big difference. read more

They can cook over here wow! They are the truth and I would definitely come back! The juices are good 2!

Amazing Food! Amazing Atmosphere! Amazing Owners!!!! What more could you ask for ! This place is 100% the place to be!

Food did not disappoint! 2nd time coming here, I tried the jerk chicken plate before so I wanted to try something different this time I ordered the curry chicken with rice and peas and plantains it just too good! Will definitely come back again:) service there is 10/10 read more

This place is Low key a gem best Jamaican food in the IE fasho. I will definitely be coming back

This happened a couple of months ago, but I was showing my partner that there's a Jamaican place here and I was all hyping it up and everything we both ordered jerk chicken I asked for a small just to try it out, but I end up getting a large and my chicken was not cooked all the way, and I didn't know until Monday and I ordered this on. I believe a Saturday only because I didn't know that it was not cooked all the way because once I got it, I did eat some of it, but I was in the dark watching TV and then I couldn't finish it because it was really spicy so I left it in the fridge for a couple of days only because I wanted to eat something different and I was craving chipotle so by the time that I arrived at work, I opened it in front of everybody. I was OK. Do you guys wanna try some of this jerk chicken and I opened it and it was bloody. But I couldn't talk to them on the phone because it was Monday so I had to wait the next day. They were able to refund me my plate but not my partner's plate because they wasn't with me at the time to refund it. I was supposed to get a call back, but I end up not getting a call back. But after that I never went back. And you can see where I was eating and I didn't even know if I at some the parts that was not cooked read more

I've eaten here twice and it's been amazing both times. I've had the Jerk Chicken with veggies and rice and peas, Oxtail with rice and peas and plantains, and their beef patties. Owners/staff are very welcoming and provide suggestions and even let me sample some of the food to help me make my mind. Everything has been delicious and prepared fresh. It's really nice to have a place like this in Perris to break up the monotony of fast food places and add some variety. I had this citrus fresh juice the first time I was there but they didn't have it again. Hope it's there next time. Will definitely be back! read more

We had oxtails and curry goat and the food was great. Fast and friendly service. The space is small but clean. Probably, best for takeout.

Ever since I first saw the digital billboard off the 215 fwy I wanted to try this restaurant. Then I read all the great reviews & couldn't wait to try for myself. Finally got the opportunity yesterday after work. My husband and I shared an oxtail plate with red beans and rice & rasta pasta as the sides, and a side of chicken. The food smelled So delicious my stomach was growling on the way home. The oxtail was honestly ine of the best things I've ever eaten! So flavorful and melted in my mouth. The beans & rice, Jerry chicken and rasta pasta were delicious ! I can't wait to come back and try other dishes that were mentioned in other reviews. I'm used to driving to LA to have this quality of food. So wonderful to have this amazing restaurant in Perris! read more

Came here because I keep hearing all the locals saying this is the spot for good Jamaican food. Let me tell you that this is not authentic at all. The jerk chicken was dry and taste just like bbq sauce grilled on a bbq. The rasta pasta that everyone is hyping up is basically a bland flavor Alfredo pasta. My oxtail was not tender at all where it fall off the bone also the hot sauce was just basically filled with vinegar. The food was for sure kept in a warmer and is not cooked fresh . My whole family got a stomache right after eating the food . On top of everything the staff was not that great . I was putting my phone number in to redeem points and it was skipped while typing my last digit and she said it went through which was a lie because I know how this system work when you put your info in. Spent 60 dollars for something that was not worth it at all. My greens did not even have any flavor at all. Suck that the inland empire never have good food.. read more

Definitely a spot to save on your list to try brown stewed chicken and curry Chicken was amazing. Rice and peas were delicious steamed veggies and fried plantains were also delicious. Had a carrot cake that also tasted very good. Overall, 10 out of 10 would recommend it to anyone looking to try it out. It's straight fire. read more

Go now !!!! Excellent customer service amazing flavor goooooooooooooooooooooooooonowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

The food here is a 20 out of 10 ! Yes you read that correctly. Rasta pasta , yams , jerk chicken, patties , ox tails , carrot cake are all fire . Next time i have to come back to try the banana pudding & beef patties which I'm sure will be nothing but amazing. Definitely recommend this place to anyone in search of good food . I hope they open a location in LA soon. read more
