The Best Jamaican Restaurants In Miami - Miami - The Infatuation

"This hot bar in Miami Gardens is making excellent brown stew chicken, sorrel, and spicy beef patties. Everything is served in takeout containers, but their cushy booths and bumpy Jamaican playlist are convincing reasons to stay and eat. They’ll ask if you want gravy poured onto your rice and peas. There is only one right answer—yes. They sell out of beef patties around 3pm, so come before that happens. These glorious flaky creations have a sneaky kick and are too easy to inhale in seconds." - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino

Where To Get A Takeout Container That Could Tear A Bicep - Miami - The Infatuation

"The takeout box from Island Tings tends to overflow with gravy. So place a towel on your car seat on the way home. The Jamaican steam counter makes tender brown stew chicken and provides generous portions of it. Get it with rice and peas and even though there will be spillage, say yes to the additional gravy pour. One box is enough to satisfy two people, but don’t leave without a spicy beef patty as a form of savory dessert." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo

Ordered the curry chicken, and it was amazing! The flavor was rich, tender, and perfectly seasoned — you can tell it’s made fresh. The portions were great for the price too. The staff was friendly, the place smelled incredible, and the vibe felt like real Jamaican home cooking. Definitely one of the best spots around — I’ll be coming back for sure!

Wowwww $28+ on oxtails. My Father order a plate via DoorDash and this is what he received. He was very disappointed and i helped him get his money back and also leave a REAL honest review. You cannot do ppl like this.

First time going to this place and was very hesitant. Ordered the jerk pasta which was horribly under cooked and the chicken was extremely sweet, I don't know why the cook, sweeten the chicken. Asked to speak with the manager whom I guess is also the one who cooks, she seemed to be bothered indicating she did not use anything sweet in the chicken which she clearly did. She did offer me another meal, which still was unsatisfying. Will not go to this place ever again, not sure what kind of Jamaican restaurant this is but its a NO for me, need better customer service, a better cook and A/C for customer to be able to dine in an not sweat. Food is also overpriced.

The food speaks for itself…DELICIOUS. The rasta punch was good too and Brianna at the front was nice as well. Please open a location in Cutler Bay/Florida City area!

OMG! Ive been searching for GOOD Jamaican food for the longest! This by far is one of the best spots ! The flavors are always on point! Most time I order from UBER EATS … today I came in person and the vibes matched the quality of the food! So happy to work in the neighborhood:)

Sometimes they give you a lot of food sometimes they don’t depending on the employee that’s working at the moment they pick and choose who they want to give more food to. I love coming more when it opens during the daytime because that one girl with very short hair that works there in the morning treats me super good and always hooks us up wow, the people in the evening have more of a nasty attitude. The food is good just wished that the portion that they gave you was equal to everyone, not just who they pick and choose.

The food is decent. The problem is them skimping the customers through the 3rd party partners like “Too Good To-Go” and “Uber eats”. If uber eats offers buy 1 get 1 free on the large plates why are they (Y’ALL) sending these small kiddy plates to customers because y’all don’t want to honor the actual promotions giving by the third parties? The proof is in the reviews. This is the second time they’ve done this and i spoke to someone about it but clearly the memo wasn’t put out or they just simply don’t care. I ordered delivery trying to give them another chance but nothing has changed. This will be my last time. The third party just needs to cut ties. My plate is the first picture (Not even a medium plate)…. How the large plate are suppose to be is the second pictures (another customers picture & review). I’ve been to the restaurant before outside of third parties and that’s when they’ll give you the correct size plate but when it’s third party or discounted with a promotion they give you the tiny plates.
