Just Like Home Jamaican Kitchen

Waited over an hour for 1 order of jerk chicken. Mostly cold rice and small portion of chicken. Flavor of food mid, not great.

This place seems unsanitary. The person working was either eating or chewing gum with their mouth open while making my order. They didn’t wear gloves either. They put my food in a small black container and all my food was touching including the salad which was located underneath the chicken. The container could barely close and leaked in the bag. On Uber, the description says it includes plantain, which it doesn’t. The food was bland and the chicken was all bones. I guess they throw that “jerk sauce” on everything hoping to add flavor, but it doesn’t taste like any jerk sauce I’ve had before — it tastes like overly sweet BBQ sauce.

Cute little truck in the neighborhood. Great service and AMAZING food. ?

I literally threw $25 in the trash. I didn’t even feel comfortable giving it away. The food was horrible. I’m thoroughly disappointed. No flavor at all. The curry goat has no bones, a very small portion and bland. Why is it so hard to get good Jamaican food in Seattle. I will never go here again. Gross. I’m mad as hell. ?

On a Saturday afternoon after running a heap of errands in south Seattle I was famished! I needed sustenance of a homey sort nothing fast or fried would suffice. The thing that was on my mind and heart was OXTAIL! I'd been craving the succulent meat for a while with no hope of ever finding a restaurant near me with the option. I searched Jamaican and this restaurant came to the top of the list. Within a close proximity too! I scurried as fast as I could to the location. When I pulled into the parking lot I noticed a small mart and across from it was a modest food truck wrapped in the colors of the Caribbean and I KNEW I was in the right place. The single operator was outside of the truck erasing something from the board and my heart sank. I knew what was being removed in my soul I knew... I approached the truck and saw with a heavy heart the oxtail had been sold out. That didn't stop me I bantered with the kind lady that was attending and I ordered a plate of curry chicken with a side of Sorrel. OUTSTANDING! The flavors were rich the meat delicate and of course cooked to perfection. The fresh thyme sprigs weren't just there for show they did their job too! I know exactly where to go when I'm craving a good authentic Jamaican meal and they serve breakfast too! I'd advise to check the hours before arriving as well as maybe giving her a call. You won't regret the meal nor the sleep after it's been consumed. I will be making a steady appearance to this place albeit the price is reasonable the satisfaction is priceless. Thank you Just Like Home!
