What User doesn't like about Island Jerk Shack:
I honestly never had nasty Jamaican food UNTIL I ate here. First of all the customer service is at a all time low. No one greeted me I stood there for 10 minutes with no one else in line before the man behind the register asked me what I want to order( still not greeted) the Oxtail was bland, beer had rice and peas this bland and the CABBAGE was REAL REAL REAL BLAND. NEVER AGAIN . $23 dollars for what . Just look at... View all feedback. What User likes about Island Jerk Shack:
The food was incredible. I ordered a succulent piece of chicken served with rice and beans, accompanied by steamed vegetables. The spices were perfect—just the right amount of heat to awaken your taste buds while still being enjoyable with every bite. I'm really pleased I chose a larger portion because the chicken was absolutely delicious! View all feedback.
