Jamaica Yaad Flavor

Im visiting Pittsburgh from NY and I googled Carribean Food. Although it was a 20 minute drive from my hotel... the food is worth the trip. Nicole is very welcoming as you enter her restaurant. I ordered the oxtail dinner and the barbi fried chicken. Both meals were delicious.

Seen this place open at night while I was still working and got curious. So for lunch I came in. 😳💕💕💕💕. Hada basic meal first jerk chicken n rice😘😘😘😘 good!! I ate like I was cheating on my diet. Their less then yr old come by, show support, and hava meal.

I went to the restaurant at 10:15AM as that's the opening time. I ordered a large stew chicken and beef patty. After paying, I was advised that stew chicken and beef patties were not ready. I was told at time what was ready. I selected the oxtail as there was nothing else I wanted. I also negotiated and received the oxtail at the same price as the stew chicken, which was good on their part. As a Jamaican oxtail is cooked with butter beans, this was not the case. The patty was good, I wish it was more flaky and thicker. I am truly not a fan of oxtail, but it was okay. Here's a tip if you open at 10:00 AM, the chef needs to be in the kitchen from 6:00 AM to have everything ready for opening. I will be back as i am hoping they see my review and take it as constructive criticism and my persona

It's a small place. Nothing glamorous. But the food is delicious! Chicken falls right off the bone. Perfectly cooked. The dumplings and cocoa bread are excellent side choices. Pricing is VERY reasonable! I need to try the ox tails next time, but I have high hopes.

Food was amazing and anyone putting less than 5 stars must be some big backs w/small pockets. First time here and we had Friendly service, food was hot & the smell when you walk in I just knew it would be a new favorite. Reading the reviews here are reason why small business do not thrive. You want them to sell plates for $5 knowing how expensive food has gone up. This is a place that should not go out of business I will continue to eat here and support our local businesses. To the business please keep thriving someone will pay your prices. Food was excellent. Also the big backs leaving bad reviews about prices I never been to a Jamaican spot who sells plates less than what this establishment has. It’s fair pricing y’all are just hungry leaving reviews and we have to see yall pictures kn
