With all the various cultural cuisines available in the Valley, it's hard to find Jamaican food in the desert (go figure!). So I'm glad I stumbled across Big Jerk!
Friendly staff. Fresh food. Gives you a real taste of Jamaica. Reasonable prices (although I have had Jamaican food in other parts of the country that had more budget-friendly price points).
The jerk chicken was seasoned perfectly. The ribs were delicious: a little "well done" for my taste, but tasty just be same. Rice and peas (can't go wrong there)! And the mac and cheese, though not Southern style like your grandmother used to make, was still very good: they used macaroni shells, but still very cheesy.
So, why only 4 stars? The curry chicken was nothing as I expected and have had at other Jamaican eateries. A true disappointment as it tasted more like chicken breast chunks in a curry paste vs. true curry chicken.
