"The Real Jerk's low-lit dining room features the colors of the Jamaican flag: green, gold, and black. It's a cozy boîte of a restaurant—perhaps that's why Rihanna and Drake made it the setting of their music video for "Work." The funky, laminated menus recall a beachside shack, and the food itself is no fancier. Start off with cod fritters, plantains, and coconut shrimp for the table, then move on to jerk meats, fresh seafood, and rotis. Make sure you have an ice cold beer handy—the spices in this jerk pack a hefty punch." - Todd Plummer
