What User likes about Mr. Jerk:
the owners are super friendly. I was introduced to the place because the owner was outside and told me he would give me a free little plakat because he knew I was a customer when I tasted his food.

View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Mr. Jerk:
Reading the reviews I thought I was getting some good Jamaican food and was excited to try it. I’m just gonna say I was highly disappointed.

The rice was overly soft, and the jerk chicken was over-seasoned, making it hard to taste the chicken itself. The oxtail was decent, but the sauce was excessive...

The jerk chicken is wonderfully spicy, just how I like it! However, a bit more seasoning on the rice would improve it, as it doesn't have much flavor on its own...
