| - This location used to be the Jerk Hut Jamaican Grille, but has a new owner.
I've been looking for some Caribbean food that met the standards of back home (NJ/NY). A coworker of mine from NY by way of Jamaica told me about this precious gem: Caribbean Marketplace Grill!
NOTE: I've only experienced their take out and it has been 100000% BOMB! I was told Dinning-In was waay better! **Insert Excitement Emoji
My first visit was to the location on Northern which is their first location. I ordered the Oxtails with beans and rice, cabbage, plantains, and side salad. YO, I fail in love at first bite! The entire dish (salad included) was full of flavor, the Oxtail tender and juicy, the plantains sweet and all cooked to perfection. After having my first fix, I needed more. Being that I live in Laveen that's not the fastest drive for take-out, but while there the young lady that assisted me let me know about their location on 19th Ave and Indian School. I told her, "I'll visit you all soon"... I'm sure most customers say that. However, at the time I was thinking "Depending on how good this meal is." Boy two days later I was at that 19th Ave location and all I could think of was JERK CHICKEN. Listen, everyone claims to have had the best jerk chicken, knows someone that makes it, or this or that restaurant makes it. I'm here to tell you that this is the best Jerk Chicken that I have had since moving to AZ 15 years ago.
If you don't visit another spot all year (2016), you need to go check them out.
