    I will never return to Jerk & Go in Merrillville on US 30…read more My party of two waited almost two hours before our food was finally served. When it arrived, every single dish was cold. The manager had to take the food to the back and microwave it before bringing it back to us. We ordered two oxtail dinners ($35 each), jerk lamb chops ($36), chicken Alfredo pasta ($28.50), jerk chicken wings ($12.50), a Calypso drink ($3), and a Corona ($5). Our bill came to $190.63, and we were surprised to see a group gratuity added for only two people. The food was a huge disappointment. The oxtails and rice were cold, the macaroni was completely tasteless, the lamb chops were extremely dry, and the jerk chicken wings tasted old. After waiting nearly two hours, this was unacceptable. When we told the manager about the wings, he insisted on remaking them. When we asked about a refund because of the quality of the food, he told us they do not issue refunds. Instead of showing concern about our experience, he also made jokes about how much food I ordered. I felt judged and uncomfortable, which made an already disappointing experience even worse. Between the nearly two-hour wait, cold food that had to be microwaved, poor food quality, the unexpected group gratuity for just two people, and the way our concerns were handled, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had. After spending almost $200, I expected much better food and customer service. I will not be returning and cannot recommend this restaurant. I just don't understand after having to wait two hours. How are you gonna give me cold food then go microwave it how I know I still had a bite out of the lamb chop.

    They charged $12 for (4) party jerk wings-real little. I thought they would have at least been the…read moreregular size. I had the oxtails, they were ok, could have been more tender and the rice was a lil mushy. My mom had the curry chicken, she said it was good. I'll try it once more for another go round.

    Shout out to the best Jamaican/Caribbean restaurant in Chicago, for Oxtails!!!!…read moreI had the absolute pleasure of patronizing this restaurant 2 days ago. I ordered an Oxtail dinner with Cabbage, and Plantains. OMG!!!! The meat was literally falling off the bones!!!! TENDERNISM!!!! The Cabbage was tasty & seasoned (most Jamaican/Caribbean restaurants don't "normally" season the veggies well - from my experience), and the Plantains were soft and sweet - just how I like them! The rice, that comes with the Oxtails, had the most tasty Au jus from the Oxtails. OMG!!!!!! And the portion was AMAAAAZING!!!!! I had visited 2 other Jamaican/Caribbean restaurants prior to this one, and was severely disappointed! I am what you would call, an "Oxtail Connoisseur," and every state that I visit, I try the restaurants that are considered to have "The Best Oxtails." Well, I have found the best, and I refuse to try the rest! I am here in Chicago for another 2 weeks, and I will be ordering from JH's Jerk Grill a few more times, including today! If you love Oxtails - GO! You will NOT be disappointed! Oh, make sure you order ahead, as the wait can be lengthy.

    Came here on a Sunday while visiting. The ambiance is casual, good music playing but with limited…read moreinside seating. Service was good as I was greeted upon entry. I will say I'd recommend ordering ahead if you don't want to wait too long. Appreciate the food being made to order thoug Now for the food! Jerk tips 8/10: nice a tender and decent portion size. Great flavor and I didn't even need the sauce but the sauce was a nice to have if you need it. Jerk egg roll 6/10: nice size egg roll full of chicken but the chicken was a little dry for my taste. I'd go back for the tips and to try the plantains.
