I’ve always heard good things about this place but it’s a little ways out for me to get to. Today I wanted some jerk pork and saw they delivered via Uber Eats. After waiting approx 90 minutes and paying $92. The food arrived and it turned out to be such a disappointment. The jerk pork was super salty, It was difficult to consume it. The rice and peas (without any pea, not even one) was hard (rice grains was stiff) and didn’t even have any sauce or gravy to accompany it. The best thing was the plantains. The mac and cheese, hmm never seen Caribbean mac and cheese done in this style before. Sad to say the Jerk Pit ain’t for me. In response to the owners reply: Evidently there is a known issue with your Jerk Pork dish being way too salty. Just take a glance down the review page to everyone who has ordered this dish. You will find a reoccurring theme of Jerk pork being way too salty. Instead of making excuses, just access the seasoning or the preparation of the dish and make the necessary adjustments. Why would everyone who ordered this dish leave the same comment. We do not know each other. Also we ordered at different times. Some years and months ago. I purchase the 2 platers for my mom and I. My mom even called to ask if I wanted to raise her blood pressure with the salty food. I have no reason to lie to you or on your dishes. It’s still uneaten hours after delivery. I do however appreciate you taking time to respond tho. It shows you care. Best of luck to you too. Like I said before, I’ve heard lots of good things about your establishment, which is why I had no vice spending $92 on two jerk platters and some juices. Esp since I’m a Guyanese and can prepare all these myself.
Excellent service. I received my food in a timely fashion. No more than about 7 minutes. Food was hot and fresh. I think most Jamaican restaurants don't put a lot of peas in the rice and peas dish. I prefer more peas than rice. That is my only issue. The curry shrimp were plump and juicy they gave me more than eight. Very delicious. The plantains were good just like I like them. The sweet potato cake was flavorful and moist.
Got take away. Food is ok for being in US. The woman cashing was petty grumpy/annoyed with life though. It’s like I was in kfc with that attitude. Took 40 mins for my order to be ready and ppl who ordered after me got their food before which was very annoying. Got jerk pork, which was a bit over cooked/dry and oxtail w/ peas and rice w/ plantains which was pretty good.
Pros: I don’t usually leave reviews but this was really good! I got the large curry goat and oxtails combo for $19. My sister also got oxtails and jerk chicken combo and jerk wings and there were also really good. The beef patty was really good too. Good portion sizes Cons: it was a 40 minute wait but there were a lot of people there and the food came out hot.
This place has me hooked on their jerk chicken that's actually marinated for some days, then broiled on an outside grill . My other favorite is their jerk salmon to die for. Nice little cozy spot in the cut off the main road. If you don't pay attention you could miss your turn
