Jamaica Bites - Clayton

I'm looking forward to this place. I wanted to love it. One of my favorite restaurants in Wilmington is a Jamaican place. Let me prevent this by saying that I was never in Jamaica, so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. But personally, I didn't think it was very good. Jerk Chicken was not burned, but had a burned taste, Callaloo rice was ok, but needed more callaloo, cabbage was too sweet, and baked Mac n cheese was best in the middle. I will try again as I? ve saw other reviews say it was hit or miss. The staff was friendly and I think the place alone deserves another attempt. We?

I didn't expect much from the mac and cheese at a Jamaican restaurant, but it’s actually quite decent when it's fresh. The guy behind the counter is always friendly and welcoming, though the woman at the counter can be hit or miss. I've tried almost everything on the menu and have found that the flavor varies greatly each time. I even had to start asking her to show me the chicken before I decide whether I want to order it. The oxtail is quite good, and the brown stew beef is also tasty. However, the standout dish is definitely her fried red snapper, whether it’s escovitch or brown stew.

This restaurant offers genuinely authentic and delicious Caribbean cuisine. The Curry Goat with gravy on rice and peas is outstanding, and the cabbage is exceptional. The sweet plantains are a real treat as well. The customer service and hospitality here are fantastic. I highly recommend this place—it's the best option with parking available in the side lot.

One of my favorite restaurants in Clayton! My fiancée and I love to eat here, and the food is always fantastic! We especially enjoy the Ruck Chicken and Calliloo Rice. My fiancée's favorites are the Plantains and the Veggie/Beef Patties. It's all great!

Food is overpriced and don?t get what you paid for. Macaroni tasted like it was boiled and layered with cheese, no seasoning at all. Definitely doesn?t taste like authentic Jamaican food.
