Junction - Hyattsville

I’ve truly had some of the best oxtails in the DMV area at this restaurant. I make the trip from Virginia to this Maryland location every month to order several to take home. The staff is always friendly, and the atmosphere has a great vibe.

The jerk wings were quite delicious. I didn’t notice a menu posted, so I assumed that a small wing dinner would cost around $10. It actually turned out to be more than $14, and with the Ting, it came to over $19. I expected to receive at least 5 wings for this small meal, but I only got 3. I checked the menu available on Google Maps, which stated that the small meal should be $9. When I called, I was informed that the menu had been updated on their website. While the food is good, the prices feel excessive.

This was my first visit to this restaurant, and I have been to many Caribbean places before. The food was fairly good, but I found the combination of corn and cabbage to be unusual, and I did not enjoy the cabbage itself. The jerk chicken tasted more like barbecue chicken, but the rice and peas were satisfactory.

The servers have the best personalities I've ever encountered at a quick Jamaican eatery such as this. The service was efficient and the workers were friendly. The food was delicious and prepared quickly. There was a little bit of a line but as soon as they took notice of this they brought more service from the back and the line quickly dissipated. Will definitely be coming back soon!

They charged $18 for less than a chicken leg quarter for brown stew chicken, and it was NASTY!!! I never write bad reviews, but this wasn't right. Next time I'll go to Just Jerk like I originally planned. SUPER disappointed!
