I’m so glad I found R’SZN Caribbean Jerk Center. The jerk chicken was honestly some of the best I’ve ever had—tender, full of flavor, and that perfect smoky heat. You can tell they put heart into their food. The service was warm and welcoming too. Definitely a new favorite for me!

I had this food 2 weeks ago, sorry for the late review, anyhow that damn food was so delicious I had Rasta pasta, grilled shrimp, goat,oxtail, rice and peas and cabbage. The rice and peas could have use some work but everything else was outstanding. I would have never think to jerk goat or oxtail but man I licked my fingers and that’s a pet peeve of mines. Highly recommend everyone give them a try.

Always a great experience here. The food never disappoints. The jerk chicken is amazing. That's my go to. I'll take a large order of that by itself. The rasta pasta is great. Make sure you ask for extra jerk sauce before you go. Best BBQ jerk sauce in the area. I highly recommend this place. Much success guys.

Raw Review:Parking- Not the best, but you will find somethingStanding space- Small, but you can work with it stillService- exceptional (men for a change. They all had great attitudes) food came out fast *8pm on a Saturday *Food- THE JERK PORK AND JERK CHICKEN WAS A 10/10 EASY! The flavor was very similar to jerk hut in Jamaica. It was fresh and hot as well which was a major plus. Spice level was tolerable. Rasta Pasta was a 5/10 due to not enough flavor, but edible enough to not throw away. Plantains were oily though which sucked if you are not about that life.Price- Very decent for the amount of food you got (medium size).Overall- Peppa's in NY has NOTHING on this place. I will be back as a regular.Suggestion to the restaurant: 3 is a bit much for 1 festival & try to revamp the rasta pasta recipe, I know that will be a great thing for the business!

This place is the REAL deal!If you craving Jamaican jerk, get it here. Oxtail and rice and peas ran out on me but the jerk chicken and jerk shrimp were amazing.. Also the pasta was HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Very nice workers and delicious food. My picky son walked in and said mommy it’s smells good in here. He was able to write his name and told me he wants to go back lol. He love the breadfruit and I love the chicken.
