I was quite impressed with the excellent service and the fantastic food! The whole place is very bright, clean, and well kept. The pricing is good, especially considering the portion sizes and the work put in to each dish they make. If I could give it six stars I would!

Authentic flavor, the chef has been cooking this food all her life. This is the only Jamaican restaurant within hundreds of miles, and possibly the cleanest Jamaican restaurant I've ever eaten at; all the furniture and flooring and fixtures and counter are new. Husband is front-of-house, friendly, works to expand the business; they also cater. Scotch bonnet pepper sauce on the side, a little goes a long way. Hearty and authentic vegan cabbage and carrot; macaroni & cheese; red beans and rice; curried shrimp, curried goat; the portions are too big! Menu changes each week; open 1130am-730pm only.

This one is my fav to go for a Jamaican food. I love their spiciness, their curry oxtails/shrimps, jerk pork/chicken and vegan soya - chilly. The owners also friendly and i am really pleased with their food and price.

Nice staff and good food. I would say its well above average but my girlfriend is now obsessed with their food and says it's the greatest ever. So I'll split the difference and say the food pretty great.

This is a gem in the middle of a strip mall. Flavors are bold and savory. Take it is a great option as the are only a few tables. Not"fine dining " but delicious and authentic.

Easily my new favorite restaurant in New York! Wonderful service and incredible flavors, taste of Jamaica answered two of my greatest restaurant needs simultaneously: excellent spicy flavors and they have some next level fried plantains! The hours are a little funky, but it's so good it'd be worth it even if it was only open every third Thursday from midnight to 1:00am. Thank you Taste of Jamaica, may God bless you for the wonderful things you do in your kitchen!

Edit: Alot of their Gluten free options are NOT Gluten free. There's hoisen sauce in the brown colored sauces and the soy sauce in that has wheat in it. So be careful and do jerk chicken or curry chicken instead of the brown colored sauces.

Loved it. It was clean the service was quick. Food was delicious. Had the oxtail it just melted in my mouth. The people working there were super friendly. Haven't had that good of a Jamaican Patty since I moved from Brooklyn. Price was reasonable. If you haven't tried Jamaican cuisine stop by and try it.

I hope more people start coming here, I really appreciate unique places like this, on top of that it is family run. They aren't getting a good review based on that alone, they earned it because of the value you get here for your money. You can not eat this cheap anywhere else that I know of without going through a drive through, and the food here blows that all out of the water in quality.I paid $7.22 for lunch. Protein and your choice of two sides, and the portions are more then fair for that price point.

By far the best meal I had all week!! The Oxtail was fall off the bone tender, beautifully juicy, and had a spice level anyone could handle with various hot sauces to satisfy more aggressive tastes. My two sides, Red beans & rice and collard greens were equally welcome on the plate!!

This is easily the best food in the area. Corning/Horseheads/Elmira - you won't find anything else like it. We had the red snapper and oxtail with red beans and rice and fried plantains. Everything we had was delicious. Their homemade hot sauce is phenomenal. The prices are more than reasonable and you get a generous portion. We will definitely be going back.

Delicious meals- we've tried the lamb stew, oxtail, escovitch fish and more.The house made hot sauce adds heat if desired. Friendly family, nice atmosphere. Desserts (coconut cake, bread pudding, etc) have also been excellent.

I ordered the ox tail platter with fried plantains and red beans and rice, with a side of spicy jerk chicken. First off the food was amazing, and the restaurant was very clean. To top it off the people were extremely nice and poured their heat and soul in the food and the restaurant. Given the chance I will definitely be stop again.
