Ocho Rios, a small Jamaican eatery, presents a range of culinary experiences that can vary significantly from visit to visit. While some dishes like jerk chicken and oxtail have received praise for their authenticity and flavor, others, such as the goat roti, have disappointed with tough bread and bland taste. The take-out focus, coupled with minimalistic decor, leaves the dining atmosphere lacking. However, friendly service and standout specials, like the $8.99 fried chicken platter, make it a popular choice for affordable Caribbean comfort food. For those seeking reliable flavors, it might be worth a return visit—just know your luck may vary.

Was Ife L at Ocho Rios a mag?
Ocho Rios is a great Jamaican restaurant. However, the quality of food depends on the day you go and how busy they are. I have gotten the oxtail platter from here a couple of times, and it has been okay. However, the oxtail platter was a complete miss the last time I visited. The food was super greasy and not great.

What Darren Walker dislikes about Ocho Rios:
Meh. I've eaten west Indian for a couple of decades and this was definitely forgettable. Roti was decent size but abysmal portion of rice and peas with no cabbage or slaw. The Goat roti was flavorless honestly and the bread was hard at certain spots. Also the hot sauce seems to be just Franks Red Hot put into a plastic container, definitely a big miss. No soup was made either. All in all not worth the trip. I don't t... View all feedback.

Parking is convenient, as there is a plaza parking lot right in front of the restaurant.

We love this place!! The food is really really good and the price is very affordable.Tonight we had jerk chicken, fried chicken, and our friend tried the roti.We found out last night that they have fried chicken as special item every Saturdays where it's only $8.99. So we had to try the fried chicken. The portion is pretty big for $8.99. It comes with a big container full of rice& peas, vegetable coleslaw, plantains, and 2 big pieces of fried chicken. It was very yummy.Jerk chicken tastes really authentic and it's a bit spicy. Jerk chicken is a must try at this place.Our friend tried the roti and the portion is very big. It will probably take our friend at least 2 meals to finish the entire roti.I definitely recommend this place and would 100% order from this place again!!

Everything about this place screams delicious, from the incredible oxtail and stewed chicken which has dumplings by the way to the patties and even the drink selections(you haven't lived until you've had a ting on a hot day). Blessed in all ways
