Delicious food, excellent prices, great service.

Apparently they think that Caribbean people don’t know the difference between fresh plantains and stale plantains that’s been sitting since the day before. Be careful apparently they are fine with serving old food. Called and spoke with the manager and he was rude of course and refused to give me a refund. But thats ok cause I got my refund from DoorDash.

Super Americanized Jamaican food. Tried the brown stew chicken, cabbage, and rice and peas and there was no authenticity in the flavor. Also tried their oven baked jerk chicken, that tasted like oven baked chicken with a spritz of hot sauce. I refuse to believe this is a Jamaican chef because no way!

If you haven’t been to Negril yet, I highly recommend you try them out. I ordered from here every other month, or more frequently, and I have never been disappointed. They always get my order correct, fresh, and relatively quickly. Their Jerk Drumettes, coco bread, and beef patties are the best!Also, some restaurants can barely handle one delivery service, they handle both DoorDash and UberEats efficiently and flawlessly, all while taking care of in-person orders. Great staff and operations!

Have been going to Negril for 30 years and it never disappoints. The staff are professional and efficient even when they are slammed with customers as they often are. I highly recommend ordering online and picking up 20 minutes later. The plantains are the best around and the portions are generous. Good reggae and attitude makes you feel like you're in Negril itself!

The chicken curry is absolutely delicious. However I find that the unsweetened carrot cake in a sour cream sauce to be an interesting experience for which I was not adequately prepared. If I had been warned, I would have ordered a dessert with actual dessert in it. I have searched the web to see if I can find any recipe for Jamaican carrot cake that is unsweetened, with no results. Apparently this is not a cultural phenomenon.

Delicious and fresh 10/10

There are so few tables that it might as well be takeout only. But the food is cheap and delicious. I'm craving it even as I write this review

Chicken soup full of leg w skin and invisible yam. Soup tasting very watered down. Won’t be back. Other Jamaican restaurant in area to try.

Absolutely disappointed. This was my first time attending this restaurant based on the reviews. Curry Goat is an entree that I look forward to having when given the opportunity. The entree portion size was small and what is the most frustrating part is that my container was consumed with bones. I will admit, the meat that was provided in the container was flavorful. Typically, a goat entree is so filling that you CANNOT eat in one setting, but in this case I am still hungry. I am sure their other entrees are great as the reviews mentioned, but my experience was not the BEST!!Note this photo is showing what the container looked like after eating the gravy and the meat.
