I tried the oxtail this time and it was fantastic. Loaded with bold flavor. Can't wait to return and try he Jerk Chicken

I've seen this restaurant move from different locations twice already and I never understood why until today. The idea of the Rio Grande Valley having Jamaican Jerk Chicken available in its vicinity is awesome. However the idea only works if the food is good and that is the unfortunate part of the "Jamaican Jerk Stop", there food isn't really that good. I paid 45 dollars for two Jerk chicken plates and two drinks along with two chicken patties. Take away the drinks and the appetizer each Jamaican jerk chicken plate came out to the price of at least 16 dollars each. NOT TO MENTION What came in our plates; At least 2-3 servings of a bland cold mush of "Rice and peas" LEGIT the whole plate was basically rice and beans with no flavor. On the top right corner of my plate existed a small space to where the chef laid 3 small pieces of chicken that resembled of mostly bone and no meat. I dug in to whatever chicken I had left in those bones and felt not only unsatisfied with the "try hard" flav

Wow! What a burst of flavor! Everything we had was delicious. We decided to get a variety. Our favorite was the oxtail! ???? It was so tender and flavorful. Next favorite, the beef patties! They had this flakiness to outside breading and the meat inside was flavored so deliciously. Hubs, got the crab cakes and said they were totally worth the price. Seriously, everything we had was good: jerk chicken plate, curry chicken, the plantains, the side of cabbage, the rice and peas. We can't wait to try the goat curry, so we'll definitely be back! If you're looking for some variety, you have to try this place!
