Authentic Taste of Jamaica

Service and food were exceptional. Waitress was attentive and continuously checked on the table. The manager visited the table asking how everything was and was very personable. Definitely recommend

It was a great opportunity to enjoy authentic Jamaican cuisine right here in Kansas. The atmosphere was lively, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We ordered the oxtail, jerk chicken, and jerk fries. The oxtail was tender and richly seasoned, while the spicy jerk chicken was perfect for someone like me who enjoys heat. As for the jerk fries, the portion size was generous, which was great—but the fries themselves felt a bit too large. I think if the fries were cut smaller, or if there were a half-portion option offered as an appetizer or side dish, it would make the dish easier to finish without waste.

We loved our dinner at Island Spice Jamaican Restaurant! The food was fantastic! I had the Jerk Pork and asked for medium spice. It was perfect! My wife had the Kingston Fried Chicken and loved every bite! TJyn was our hostess. She was courteous and took great care of us. If you haven’t been to this restaurant yet, you really should come and try it. Once you do, you’ll be hooked! It’s really good and reasonably priced.

The hospitality and warm welcome extended by the manager and staff are among the standout features of this restaurant. The food was both authentic and delicious, with the Jamaican rum punch cocktail being a particular highlight—flavorful and expertly crafted. Special mention goes to Bella, the steward, whose pleasant and engaging manner of introducing each dish added a lovely personal touch. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire dining experience, from the setting to the great conversation that flowed naturally throughout the meal.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Island Spice Jamaican Restaurant (also known as Authentic Taste of Jamaica) in Fort Leavenworth, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish! As someone who loves authentic Caribbean cuisine, this spot exceeded all my expectations and transported me straight to the islands with every bite. We started with the escovitch fish, which was perfectly fried, crispy on the outside, and tender inside, topped with that signature tangy, spicy vinegar sauce loaded with peppers and onions – it was life-changing! For mains, the jerk chicken was incredibly flavorful, marinated to perfection with just the right amount of heat, and the portions were generous enough to share. We also tried the curried goat, which was fall-off-the-bone tender and bursting with
