The food was great, and the facility is clean but as the say goes, u do not go to the jamaican restaurant for the service u go there for the taste of the food.
The place is very nice very clean their very respectful as well as it's extremely reasonably priced and the food is delicious and I'm coming from Brooklyn this food is delicious where it is the heart and soul of little Jamaica so this stuff is delicious
AMAZING FOOD!!!! Fair prices" quick and friendly service. Out of this world Curry Shrimp with delicious fresh vegetables! Rice n Peas had flavor like nobody's business! I will DEFINITELY be back very soon and often. ❤❤❤
Iyight so I didn’t get to take picks cuzI was starving but next time I promise lol. I just want to start by saying this is the only Jamaican restaurant that I’ve been to had great customer service, every time I go! The food is good and the portions are big. There isn’t a dine in area and there’s usual a line but it moves quick.
LUNCH SPEACIALS ON DECK UNDER 10.00 BRUHH Shout out to Yard Jerk On E.Main Tracy and Krissy on Point!! The Variety seems endless proper portions and fresh. Anytime from Breakfast, lunch and Dinner Don't miss out on the lunch specials!!!
First time going to this location and I was very impressed. The restaurant was clean and the server was very helpful and patient, as I mulled over which meal I wanted from their delicious choices. The quality of the food was great as well as the serving size. Pricewise you can't go wrong. For the amount of food and drinks that I bought, I was surprised that I paid so little for it. I'll definitely be back there and I've already started spreading the word to my friends and family. Loved it, and you probably will too.
If you are familiar with Jamaican food restaurants then I assure you this location is worth the stop. It's difficult to find reliable consistent flavors from a Caribbean location in Fairfield County and this is my top pick. The sides can be inconsistent for flavor but not enough to overshadow the benefits of this location. Pro - Consistently good flavors and they've just added the Caribbean flavors of ice cream feat. Rum & Raisin, Stout, etc. Proteins like fried shrimp, bbq fried chicken, and jerk chicken are great choices. Improvements - Potato Salad had a funny taste the last time and you have to be specific in what you want. Oxtail Prices are still very much over priced. Overall 4.8 stars in my humble opinion!
Order before you go...long wait especially during lunch...food was great...Ordered ackee & saltfish w/fried dumpling...tawdry just my my mom's and jerk pork...soooo good
Yard Jerk is awesome! The jerk chicken was delicious and spicier than other places. The beef patty, rice and peas and cabbage were also delicious. They had a display of different foods that all looked so good. Can’t wait to go back! Update: I got the oxtails today and they were soo good! …tender and flavorful and a huge portion!
