Nestled in a modest locale, Just Jerk offers a tantalizing taste of authentic Jamaican cuisine. Opinions vary; while some praised the flavorful jerk chicken and other dishes like brown stew, others noted inconsistencies in seasoning and service. The jerk offerings stand out, although some customers found the spice levels lacking. Despite slow service at times and limited menu items, many patrons recommend calling ahead to avoid disappointment. Overall, Just Jerk showcases a delightful array of flavors, but diners should be prepared for potential service hiccups in this culinary gem.

Really tasty chicken. Also recommend the beefpatties that are always crispy.

Best Jamaican food I ever tried. I love the jerk chicken from this place, it's not too spicy and the plantains are always sweet! I love the beef patties they are fresh every time I come by.

I am a huge fan of jerk chicken and this is by far, the best I've had in quite some time. I ordered the large dark meat dinner and you definitely get your monies worth! I will be back!

I was in the area so I decided to give them a try. Customer Service not friendly at all! I ordered the large jerk chicken white meat. It was good but it's just hot/bland (I love SPICEY HOT! and the all spice and cinnamon lingers long after you've finished eating (Strange the flavor of jerk is not what one is use too (I've had plenty . The cabbage is crunchy (I love , rice and peas were fine! They ran out of plantains (I missed having that You get plenty for your money, so that is worthy of 5 . Overall I would rate them 3 1/2 Service: Takeaway Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3
