Fantastic chicken, really so delicious and great environment!

OMG!!! All of them are very delicious!! I order Braised Oxtail (Meat only Medium size), Jerk chicken with rice & beans (Large size) and Southern Fried Chicken with rice & beans (Large size). (You don't see any steamed veggie or salad is because i specifically asked them not to give me)Amazed by how large portion they are and very reasonable price. ? Some people say about price going up but I totally understand the economic situation and base prices are going up very high. This price is NOT high at all!! I definitely recommend to all my friends and family. YOU MUST TRY HERE!!

My wife and I absolutely love Genesis. It is our go to spot for boneless jerk chicken. Their food is always very flavorful with just the right amount of spice. We like it really spicy so they give us hot peppers on the side. The staff is friendly and hard working. Genesis is always busy so if you're ordering make sure to call ahead. No one likes an impatient patron. Good food is done with love and love takes time. Make sure you tip! Prices has gone up because of the economy. But it's totally worth the little extra money.

Curry Chicken was very salty! Plantains were hard and dry and Chicken soup had no food in it. Food needs more Love!

Delicious and spicy chicken, price was good!

An all round great Jamaican restaurant. Can be busy at times and service delayed. Food is quite tasty, staff is nice, prices are decent, space is small. Would definitely recommend.

If you’re looking for a good Jamaican meal Genesis is the place. I had the curry chicken and oxtail dinner and it was on point. The people were also nice which makes it even better.

After a friend of mine suggested I try ackee and saltfish from here, I was hooked. Their food portions are amazing and food is very tasty. Be prepared for a wait since this place is pretty popular and alot of people come here at a time to order food.

Curry goat was trash . The fried chicken was good

Go frequently for their sea moss drink. It's unpasteurized so the nutrients doesn't get destroyed. Flavorful as well. Their food is ok but I perfer the homemade drinks
