Jamaica Gates was soooooo GOOD…the food was very hot and fresh!!!! My mom has an autoimmune disorder and so the chef specially made a steamed whole red snapper fish with ingredients that my Mom could eat! The chef was amazing, everyone was very friendly and had good customer service! Thank you Chef Kyle sooo much for taking care of us!!!! 🥰 My mom will be coming back. ***disclaimer *** we had already started eating and the pictures do not give it justice! Way better than it looks!!!

As a Jamaican born and raised, and a Texan living in Texas since 2022, I can confidently say that this is the best Jamaican spot I’ve ever eaten at. I ordered rice and peas with cabbage and oxtail. The rice was incredibly delicious, melting in my mouth at a perfect rate. The cabbage was crunchy, which I prefer. The oxtail was also fantastic, though I’m not sure if I should even rate it. Overall, I would give it a 10 out of 10. Tali, our server, was incredibly hospitable and exuded positive energy. Even though the food was exceptional, she would have let me return. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking authentic Jamaican cuisine. Ps. My partner even ordered additional rice and peas and gravy

We just moved from Portland, Oregon to Arlington, Tx. We found Jamaica Gates by chance, when I was craving Oxtails. I have ordered the Oxtails entree twice weekly ever since. The meals are so delicious, and flavorful!! I’m obsessed with Jamaica Gates quality & quantity of each entree. We have dinned in and have many deliveries to our front door. The prices are great, and the portions are very generous. This is the Best Jamaican food in town!!

Jamaica Gates Restaurant is absolutely amazing! The food is always delicious and full of flavor, and the drinks are strong and well-made. You definitely get your money’s worth because the prices are great too. The music and DJs are exceptionally talented and really set the vibe—it’s always a great atmosphere whether you’re dining, relaxing, or celebrating. On top of that, Teno, the owner, is good people and makes you feel welcome every time. The vibe, the service, and the quality are all top-tier. Highly recommend—this place is truly a gem in Arlington!

Had to try out this place and to my surprise I wasn’t disappointed one bit! The chef, Kyle was very nice and the food was amazing!!! Friendly staff, good vibes and great food, what more could I ask for? I really enjoyed. I had the oxtails (very much tenderism lol), the ackee and salt fish was to perfection. My boyfriend had the stew chicken which he cleared clean. Food was amazing!!! I’ll be back 😊
