I’ve always been satisfied when I go to Jamaica House Restaurant on Broad St. in Jackson Ward - and I always get extra coco bread

On this subject does anyone know what happened to the woman who ran the Caribbean Grill cart at Cary & 10th? She had the best jerk chicken and plantains I’ve ever had.

So I believe that was Moses's second cart. He still has the main one on 10th and Clay. He had to close that one a while back because he didn't have proper support to run both efficiently.

They are absolutely awful.

The wings are tiny , dry and reheated in the microwave. And when it's warmer out they have DJs on Thursday and Friday on their "patio" who point the speakers at the apartments next door and play music so loud you can hear it 3 blocks away.

+1 for Irie Ting, get the jerk chicken with cabbage and peas & rice, and bread pudding if you're really going all out. Don't make plans for later, cause you're gonna be nappin'

I thought the wings at irie were incredible, my coworker said “oh nononono you HAVE to go to Jamaica house, it’s so much better.” Well damn, if it’s better than irie it might just be the best spot in rva

If you mean Jamaica Jerk Pit, I'll probably stop by sometime next week myself.

Always willing to try a place at least once.
