Jerk Grill Fort Lauderdale Reviews
I'm going to start off by giving this resturant a 10. Great food, great service and clean atmosphere. I had the jerk chicken and rasta pasta. My husband had jerk chicken with rice & peas. Everything was flavorful & hot. The rasta pasta was made to order, so give yourself some time. We'll be back the next time we're in Fort Lauderdale.
Went for lunch on Tuesday and got the country chicken special. Came with chicken packed with flavor, juicy and tender, rice and peas cooked perfectly, and a simple slaw to add a little freshness. 100% will be coming back to try more
I went here hearing about it from social media IG. It's located right off the highway the service here was excellent. The food was seasoned well & flavorful. I had the jerk pork with festival and my wife had the combo of chicken pork rice and peas and Mac and cheese and I must portions were beyond generous for the price. I highly recommend and would definitely be back here 5 stars.
The food was delicious everything was hot crispy and perfect, this is what you call home cooked food at its best the staff was very welcoming and friendly and made sure that we had everything thank you
Grandma has a wonderful birthday party thanks to Kerrisha we appreciated the hospitality and good food. Felt like the staff was apart of the family.

The food was fresh and the service is top-notch. Real authentic Jamaican cuisine. The fish fry on Fridays are always a good spot to start the weekend
The Food was real excellent well seasoned and fresh the place was clean, good customer service definitely one of the best !!!
The catering for our baby shower was an amazing experience. The food and service was spot on!
The food is very delicious. Freshly prepared and the prices are affordable.
Got the jerk chicken, rice and peas and festival. It was great, jerk chicken actually done on a grill vs baked. Good prices and serving size.
Kerrisha’s food and catering services are amazing.
Food was authentic, taste home cooked.
Best Jamaican food in the city!!

Food is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I always have an awesome experience when I come here. Sharoma and Karisha are very kind and attentive. The jerk chicken is delicious 10/10 recommend
Amazing food overall. Workers are consistent in making sure your okay.
Love the food, location, and vibe! Such a great spot
Superfriendly staff. Clean, quick, affordable. DELICOUS get some jerk chicken, plantains, rice and peas, and fresh pressed juice.
Irie Jerk, family owned is none like the others. Food is prepared with the rich flavors of Jamaica, but more like a home cooked meal vs. bulk cooking. The every plate made just for you! There is also a weekend vibe of table top games for the family, or dominoes for the men. Great music, good vibes. Friendly faces! If you have a family dinner event…let them know and a private room awaits! Done it all and absolutely no regrets…Irie Jerk is the place to be for an informal vibe or make it as formal as you like!
Twice in a month, I’ve had the privilege of dining at Irie Jerk. The ambience is wonderful very welcoming. The service is very personal and accommodating. The owner Kerrisha always comes out and well comes us. My friends and I have used the back room where we can play games and just have a private time. This is a wonderful place of gathering for a group of friends. Friday nights and Saturdays were good Thanks, Kerrisha and staff for catering to us and giving us the best and most delightful food.
My friends and I met up for a group lunch at Kerrisha‘s restaurant this past weekend. There were 11 of us and she and her staff went above and beyond to accommodate us as a group. The food was delicious and the friendly atmosphere very inviting.
Recently ate at Irie Jerk and ordered several things and all were delicious. Pleasant staff, warm environment, clean restaurant. Great experience.
Delicious, authentic Jamaican cooking! I had stew fish, jerk chicken and jerk ribs. Everything 10/10
I have been to this restaurant twice and had the jerk chicken with rice and peas (and oxtail gravy). Both times were excellent! The food is cooked fresh and is flavorful and delicious. The staff is very friendly. They make you feel at home. The atmosphere is nice and comfy. Just people sitting, conversing, and enjoying good food. I will definitely come back again and try something different on the menu. That jerk chicken is hard to resist, though!
Mannnn oh Mann if I could give my experience a 10 start I would. I was soooo skeptical about trying another Jamician restaurant, literally stepped out and said you know what everybody cooking ain’t the same. The majority of Jamician spots I’ve tried whether it’s Donas, golden Krust, Dutch pot is a hit and miss and 9 times out of 10 I end up not liking it. Food bland rice dry etc.. Not to mention Jamician house off Broward the worst place everrrr terrible customer and food is trashhhhhhh. But coming here made me reconsider, welll I’ll this will be my choice of Jamician food till otherwise.. Theee best!!! I purchase a medium jerk pork and the rice was so moist jerk pork was so tender and full of flavor and the portion was worth it. Thank you sooooo much. I have no complaints, I enjoyed every rice grain and every price of fat on the jerk pork.. Highly Highly recommend!!!!! I will be backkkkkkk
I cannot say enough good things about this place. We have been here twice and both times it was nothing but delicious food, exceptional service, and an all around great environment. I said it once, and I'll say it again. Their service is exceptional. They make my family and me feel like royalty from moment we enter to the moment we leave.
The food is soooo good but be prepared for a wait. I had the Rasta Pasta, with curry goat, & slaw. The curry goat is so tender. I’m in love with the slaw too. I don’t even like Rasta pasta but I do now. Maybe the other 2 restaurants I’ve tried it didn’t make it good like Irie Jerk. Who’s the chef? I need to meet the chef & say yo mama did a great job with you.
Great food and great service unlike many Jamaican/Caribbean restaurants. The place is very clean too. I love the menu its not traditional although they have traditional dishes too. I will be back to try one of everything lol.. This is my new lunch spot. Im glad I found you guys
As a fellow Jamaican, I’d HIGHLY recommend Irie Jerk Restaurant to anyone!!! The food was flavorful, well seasoned and great portion sizes. Customer service was 10/10 & compliment also to the chef! Love this place and I will certainly be back soon!
The jerk chicken is moist and delicious. The fried chicken is delicious. Irie Jerk has never let me down. The price is right and the taste is even better.
This fine establishment is all around 5 stars. From the amazing service to the delicious and well presented food. I loved how clean and well designed this restaurant is. I 1000% will be back!!
I’ve been eating here since I found this place almost a year ago! And I have to say it’s the same vibe every time!!!!!!! Constantly consistent kerrisha luv blessing and respect from JON
I had jerk chicken with Rasta pasta and rice and peas. The combo is with any two sides!!! The quality and quantity were excellent!!
Arguably the best Jamaican restaurant in south Florida. It felt like I went to a family friends house for a get together. Everything was super flavorful and they have large portions. They went from a catering company to a full restaurant and it’s amazing.

Jerk pork was sensational! Sides, not so much. I had the slaw and the rasta pasta.....BLAND, BLAND, BLAND! Was hoping for something a lot more tasty.

Honestly I’m highly disappointed. I ordered two fried chicken dinners with rice and peas. The chicken was dry and chewy . Wasn’t fresh . The actual seasoning was salty . The rice had absolutely no flavor taste like pure water literally. Only thing good on the plate was the plantains. I wasted $30 tonight . I had high expectations based on the videos and reviews . But never again . That food was a 2/10.

Customer service sucks and the place dutty
My partner and I came to this restaurant for Curry Goat. Before I paid I asked, "you sure you have currie goat?" The cashier responded with yes. Because my partner ordered chicken wings we had to wait for them to cook. As we waited multiple customers walked in. 40 minutes later a staff member comes to me to ask if we ordered. We said yes, curry goat and chicken wings. He ran back to get our order. A minute later the original cashier came and said, "I have bad news, no more curry. They issued me a refund and I left. Why I give it 1 star is because they had enough curry when I ordered, but after multiple customers walk in, they no longer have enough. It was a waste of time and an experience I can't get back.
