Reviews for Ocho Rios Jerk Spot in Phoenix, AZ
Great music, Tena was a terrific server, the chef brought out delicious food out. My mild jerk chicken was bold & smoky, with... hints of both spicy and sweet. The sides were also made with love and care. My buddy got the curry goat and ate every bite. Read more
Food was on point. Most was way better than what we got at Jamaican resorts. The Ackee & Saltfish definitely was. I thought I... didn't like Ackee until I had it here. Reminds me of well seasoned yellow squash and onions but way better. The Callaloo waslike eating some of the best greens you ever had. The jerk chicken was juicy and cooked through. Bammy was good heretoo...sort of like hot water cornbread (sort of) but more firm. Full bar here too. Good pour on the Rum Punch. Went around11-12 on a Saturday - plenty of seating. Come in off Northern. Can't get in off 43rd Ave. Update: Plenty of seats at 3 onSaturday. Curry chicken patty was good enough to order a second. Curry goat was fall off bone tender. Think I got a newfavorite. Same for the brown stew chicken. Only had great experiences here. Keeping them at 5 stars. Update: Back again. Oxtails this time. Parents shared the sampler. Food still on point. Bartender still pours heavy! Read more
4/5 There’s some pro’s & con’s The Pro’s : The drinks and food are AMAZING ! I love there oxtail & beef patty’s. The... music wasn’t too loud it was actually fun and enjoyable the DJ is very outgoing! If you love to dance and get on your feetthis is the place, it’s mixed with old school music and new school music. It is alittle on the pricey side but atleast u getgood portions. The con’s: The place is too small, it wasn’t really packed but to have a dance floor they should have morespace. We had two different waiters, but we kept trying to get there attention for more drinks. Which is odd because the waitershould be attentive to us asking if we need anything else. Read more
An authentic Jamaican experience in AZ. The food was delicious, fast service, and friendly staff. I stopped by on Sunday, which... turned out to be Sunday Funday. There was a Dj with lights. Atmosphere was great, still kid friendly. Highly recommend thisplace for a mini taste of the islands. Read more
Food is not bad. Not the best rice and peas I've had but certainly not the worst. I ordered curry shrimp but I couldn't tell... there was any curry. Just shrimp that is lightly colored yellow. Cabbage slaw was decent. Jamaican beef patty was slightly dry(crust) and more crust at the outer edges. Sorrel tasted a bit off. Plantain and festival were good. I grew up on Caribbeanfood ( parents from the islands) so I'm not bashing but providing my opinion on the food I'm use to eating growing up. Isupport black businesses and wish them success. Read more
First this is the best fried sweet plantains in town. The rest is also the best. We had traditional jerk chicken (which you... can get sweet, spicy or mild) also coconut curry shrimp with boiled cabbage Caribbean style, rice and true festival bread. Theyalso have real Jamaican pineapple soft drink! Read more
Food nice nice! Soursop drink was perfect. Patties were so good we ordered more before walking out. We also got Brown stew... chicken, oxtail, Jerk chicken and curry chicken. Everything nice! Julie was very hospitable. We will definitely be back. Read more
The food is really good and seasoned nicely!!! I got the jerk chicken which comes with two sides, I got the rice with beans and... plantains. It also comes with this bread (I don't know the name of it) which is slightly sweet but tasty. I don't know if it'slike this all the time but the music is really loud like at a nightclub but at least they were playing good stuff so it wasenjoyable. I'd definitely go back if I'm on that side of town. Read more
