Jerk Pan Review - Midtown - New York - The Infatuation

"Jerk Pan is a Caribbean food truck parked on the corner of 48th Street and Park Avenue almost every day. It’s right next to the J.P. Morgan building, so if you don’t want to retreat immediately back to your desk, you can go sit next to a bunch of people in suits, who are all talking into AirPods, smoking cigarettes, and eyeing your jerk chicken platter. Jerk Pan serves a $12-$16 “mini” lunch special which gets you a small styrofoam box filled to the brim with excellent-tasting things like oxtail or jerk chicken and rice and beans, all covered in a salty delicious gravy. If they ask you if you want gravy, you need to say yes - it’s for your own good. There are also medium and large platter options that cost around $14-$20, and come with a few different containers for sides like cabbage, greens, and macaroni salad." - Hannah Albertine

The apt complex I live at has Food truck Thursday's, and today was Val's Jerk Pan! So excited to try the food because of reading such rave reviews online. Jerk chicken is DELICIOUS, and I asked the fellow at the window which he preferred Goat or chicken curry. He suggested Goat, and I was not disappointed! Both dishes full of flavor! Rice and beans, and the side of [steamed/sauteed?] Cabbage definitely added to the flavor profiles. Keep up the great work guys, thank you for great food and great service! 7/25/24 🧡

Follow them on Instagram to find out when and where to find them. They're mobile and don't have a set schedule. After speaking with the owner on the phone, I feel positive that I will love the food when I finally catch them open. He said they use Scotch Bonnet peppers as well as other imported ingredients for true authentic island flavor! The owner seems very cool to talk to and answer questions over the phone. I'll update my comments once I get a chance to visit.

Val brought his Jerk Pan food truck to our neck of the woods for dinner. There are only three menu items (available in varying sizes), so we decided to share a large jerk chicken. The order was ready fast! It was perfect for us two, a lil spicy (I didn't notice the spice level until my nose was sniffling). The chicken was perfectly seasoned & smoked. We would visit Val's Jerk Pan again if nearby!

I ordered the large oxtail plate. It was very flavorful, will definitely pop up at Vals again to try their other plates. My plate came with oxtail, rice and peas, cabbage and a macaroni noodle dish? I'm not sure what the macaroni dish was exactly as I am not a macaroni fan. But again definitely try this place out. It's located in Montrose marketplace

Everytime we come here it's closed ... always closed absolutely ridiculous. How do you have a food truck but never opened

They have the best oxtail i have had so far in Houston and i've lived here for 4 1/2 years. Im from Miami and also Caribbean so i know my Caribbean food and let me tell you, the oxtail was moist and flavorful. I love the amount they give the rice and peas and plantains were a great addition to Support the flavors of the oxtail. Make sure you ask for extra gravy on the side and you wont regret it.

Listen, this food is amazing and the service is of eloquence. I didn't know what to get, but Val gave me a sample, with a smile and I was so impressed with taste! I'm extra full after eating the jerk chicken, Mac and cheese, rice and cabbage! I'll definitely be back, because the food and customer experience was on point! You all definitely need to try out their food truck and catering services!
