Got jerk chicken, cabbage, and rice, very new to me and they absolutely delivered, fall off the bone, flavorful chicken, perfectly soft yet crunchy cabbage, and amazing rice too(especially when mixed with the jerk sauce) will definitely go again and try a new dish

I was in the area visiting, and decided to try this place. I want to thank the owner, Shawn for his incredible customer service. The food was so so delicious. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and the portions were huge for what I paid. I highly recommend the Jerk King, and if I’m back in the area, I’ll definitely stop by again.

The owner Sean was so nice and set us up with FULL plates. The jerk chicken was amazing, and it actually fell off the bone. The staff was very kind and this was definitely some of the best jerk chicken I’ve ever had! Definitely will be coming back!!

The Jerk is so tender, seasoned, and hot off the grille. Mac hands down the best I’ve had and I always get rice n peas…everything on my plate is delicious. The owner, he was definitely a kind hearted person. Can’t wait to come back here.

Sheldon is amazing! He really does make you feel at home as he fixes you an amazing and hearty plate of delicious food. I tried the jerk, chicken, curry chicken, Mac and cheese, rice and peas, collards, cabbage, and Rasta pasta. I cannot recommend this place enough. From the first bite of the jerk chicken, I was hooked. It perfectly spiced and tender. The hour trip from the Bronx was worth it.

I had such an amazing experience at this restaurant today. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming—seriously one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. The portions were huge, the food was absolutely delicious, and that BBQ sauce? Out of this world. The chicken and pork were smoky, juicy, and full of flavor. My flight got canceled and I was having a rough day, but this place—and especially the owner—completely turned it around. He truly made my day with his kindness and generosity. The service was top-notch, and I left with a full belly and a warm heart. If you’re ever in the area, do yourself a favor and eat here. This place is a hidden gem!!!👍

I moved here recently and have been trying out the restaurants in the area. I saw “Jerk King” on Google Maps and the reviews were positive! When you enter the restaurant vicinity, you can smell the food cooking and see the smoke rising from the grill out front. Walking into the restaurant, you’re greeted with a smile and a warm welcome. Some polite conversation and mentioning that it was my first time earned me a sample plate of rice and peas with Thai sweet chili fried fish — along with a warm welcome to the neighborhood. I ordered the oxtail, rice and peas, and cabbage. I had never had callaloo before, and he gave me some to try with my meal-and it was really good!. And guys… he was NOT stingy with the oxtail gravy on the rice 😩😩. Let’s just say I demolished the fish dish when I got home (still crispy btw), and I’ll be saving the oxtail for tomorrow 🥰 (though I had to sneak a taste — it was fall-off-the-bone amazing!). Will definitely be eating here again!
