"I've been a loyal customer of Jerk Modern Jamaican Grill for over 7 years, and I felt it's high time I shared my thoughts on this gem of a restaurant. From the early days of overcoming growing pains to becoming a consistently outstanding eatery, Jerk Modern Jamaican Grill has never failed to impress. I vividly remember their opening days when they faced challenges with shortages, but those were merely growing pains. Since then, not once have I received a bad order or encountered the dreaded cold food syndrome. Whether through a delivery service or an occasional in-person pick-up for their Beef Patties, my experiences have been nothing short of excellent. My most recent order through Door Dash was, as always, a delight. The food arrived warm, and the order was spot on. Speaking of Beef Patties, let me tell you, these are the real deal! Forget imitations; Jerk Modern Jamaican Grill boasts the ORIGINAL GOLDEN CRUST. Don't let other places deceive you; this spot has the authentic Golden Crust Beef Patties that will redefine your expectations. My latest order, I couldn't resist trying the dry-run Jerk wings with a side of Rude Gyal and Cilantro Aioli Sauce. The wings were perfection personified — impeccably rubbed, juicy, and downright delicious. The seasoning was on point, and they didn't skimp on flavor. As a longtime fan of their Jerk offerings, I'm grateful that they consistently deliver on the promise of authentic Jamaican flavors. And let's not forget the beverages; a bottle of Ting and two cans of Sprite were the perfect companions to my meal, elevating the entire experience. While I'm already a die-hard fan, I can't help but think that adding oxtail to their menu would be a game-changer. If Jerk Modern Jamaican Grill ever decides to make that addition, consider me a permanent resident! In conclusion, don't be foolish — give this place a try, and you'll undoubtedly thank me later. Jerk Modern Jamaican Grill has not only stood the test of time but has consistently delivered an exceptional dining experience. Here's to another seven years (and more) of culinary bliss!"

"Saw this place on my friends Instagram story and the place looked so cute and food looks pretty good as well! My coworkers and I decided to make a reservation on a Saturday afternoon and when we got there, we were seated right away. The place looked really cute! Definitely a spot for people who wanna take pictures for Instagram and whatnot! The setup literally is like your at a spot for a picnic but a more boogie. My coworkers and I decided to order the grove basket which includes fried chicken, biscuits, Cole slaw, veggie platter and banana pudding and we also got the lobster roll. When the lobster roll came out, the presentation looked really nice and simple, same with the basket since we haven't yet opened it. But once we opened the basket, we weren't expecting things to be put in like a Togo box. The lobster roll wasn't bad, the roll itself was decent but the lobster inside was a little bland and I felt like the celery overpowered the lobster. We were expecting the fried chicken inside the basket to be warm and crispy but when we ate it, it was cold like it's been sitting in the fridge for a couple hours so the skin wasn't even crispy. The Cole slaw wasn't even Cole slaw, it was just chopped up veggies and the potatoes in the potato salad was hard. Okay, the banana pudding wasn't bad, had a lot of whipped cream and some real bananas at the bottom. The best thing in the basket was probably the biscuits and banana pudding to be honest. Everything else was just a disappointment. And not to mention everything was pretty pricey! I mean if it were to be worth that much, at least make the food good!"
