“Try the oxtails lunch with plantains and steamed cabbage, includes rice.”
“Enjoyed there food very friendly atmosphere this is our second time coming here it took us 6 months to remember this place.. the server served us both times he's very polite friendly and handsome always smiling.. we will be back the cabbage was seasoned well Mac and cheese tasty and jerk white meat very tender and barbecue chicken was tender also..”
“I’ve been coming here since they opened and have yet to be disappointed. Everything I’ve tried has been great! I especially love the oxtails. You get a good portion even with the lunch special.”
“Hubby and I were hungry and decided to order from the #2 location which is in Richton Park, IL. You definitely get your money's worth and then some in the amount of food they give you. We got the oxtail dinner and it was delicious. The sides were cabbage greens and plantains. Comes also with rice and beans. Cabbage was okay and the rice was plentiful. About a week later, we decided to order from #2 again but for some reason, they weren't taking orders at that particular time so we ordered from this location, #4. I must say, this location is closer and we enjoyed the food more. The cabbage greens tasted so much better and they add a delicious sauce on top of the rice & beans which adds a great flavor so we will be ordering from this #4 location from now on. Highly recommend the oxtail dinner, the butter chicken dinner and their meaty rib tips are the BOMB!! The pictures show it all and how much food they give. Keep up the great work Irie, much appreciate the wonderful food!”
“Drove over a hour to try this spot it was well worth the travel I ate my food in the car”
“The White Jerk chicken dinner exceeded my expectations. Chicken was very tender, yams wasn’t overly sweet, Mac n cheese nice was creamy overall the best Jamaican Mac n cheese I’ve had in a while. The rice and peas so delicious and that gravy was phenomenal it complemented the rice. Nice portions.”
“PRICES ARE UP! WAY WAY WAY UP! THEY HAVE INCREASED BY A LOT! I only get the jerk chicken all white dinner with cabbage and mac n cheese. You pay for bread, platines and extra jerk sauce. That's what my rating is based on! It went from$22 to $26 that's a $4 increase which I think is to much. Oh and I paid with cash! So no card fee like some places. Sadly instead of going once a week, it will be a while before I go again. The cost is getting out of hand!”
“Lunch Oxtails: These were good, I wish there was more than 3(just veryy fatty)🥲 but they were seasoned nice (& not spicy) I’m not a fan of the jerk sauce but if you have your own at home it’s Fire🔥 Cabbage is great, a bit too crunchy for me in my opinion if it was cooked slightly longer it’s perfect but seasoned well plantains are also very good”
“The food is reasonable price. However, I ordered an oxtail dinner with Mac and cheese and yams and a side of cabbage. The oxtail and gravy were so salty that I did not eat them. The sides were standard. Overall the chef has a heavy hand with salt. Try it for yourself. It might have just been a bad day.”
“I am reaching out to express my extreme dissatisfaction with my recent catering order from your location. As a long-time supporter of your franchise, I am deeply disappointed by the quality of food I received, especially given the $300 I spent. Here are the details of my order: • 2 Large Trays of Jerk Chicken • 2 Oxtail Dinners • 1 Small Tray of Cabbage Unfortunately, the food was inedible and not up to your usual standards: • The jerk chicken wings were burnt, overcooked, and so dry they were unservable. • The chicken tasted extremely old, and I cannot confidently take this food to my family gathering. • The oxtails, cabbage, rice, and mac and cheese were also unsatisfactory in taste and quality. I chose this location based on your staff’s assurances and the positive reviews, but this experience has left me livid. I work hard for my money and expect to receive the quality your franchise is known for. I am requesting that this issue be rectified immediately. Please respond within 48 hours to address this matter. If I do not hear back, I will have no choice but to escalate by contacting my bank and sharing my experience on social media. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope we can resolve this amicably.”
