Hummingbird Jamaican Restaurant

The food here is AMAZING. I mean beyond all expectations. The jerk chicken was perfectly cooked and heavily spiced, the rice and peas were flavorful - even the steamed veggies were great. Throw in the 3 perfectly cooked plantains and you got one very happy customer. The staff and owner were super friendly and welcoming. Even the bathrooms were super clean. Great little find! We will definitely be back!!!!

Been here twice... the jerk chicken stir fry gets 2 thumbs up. Mac and cheese super dry but everything else we had was good. It takes awhile for the food but it's worth it. You have 2 ask 4 the bread and plantains which I didn't know the 1st time.

First time in Chicago and decided to stop for some Jamaican food and came across this place through Google. Stopped by and this place was empty and had a bunch of art of the wall. This is when I knew it’s about to be fire. The owner Louie Louie wasn’t in the front even more of a sign that food about to be lit. He came out with a bright smile to greet my mom and I and we spoke for a little before we had some bomb curry goat. He was so nice. He gave us some extra food that we didn’t know he had and we were pleasantly surprised. At the end he packed us some jerk chicken and here we are in a different state eating it for breakfast and let me tell you I am not disappointed again. Jerk is nicely seasoned with dry jerk ingredients and some wet sauce to the side. Next time I’m in Chicago for a longer stay I will return. Thanks for giving us the Jamaican experience in Chicago of all places.
