Taste Island Grill - Kansas City

The service here was so putrid.Lady behind the counter must be so miserable with the way she treats people.I would give it another try but she single handily ruined that chance.

Out of four options ordered food was not good. I like Jamaican food. But not here. I ordered jerk chicken bowl and couldn't tell if it was pork. Way too pricey

This place is soooooo tasty! I dream about their food. Only knocking them because it was dirty inside. We order takeout instead of eating in, but I’m sure if we ate in more often, we’d order and eat more of their food!

“DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME HERE.” The service from the India girl was horrible. She never greeted us when we entered. My husband asked her for something to clean the table with where we were sitting at because it was sticky. She replied by asking us to move to another table. There was nothing authentic about the food. It was more like a Chipotle bowl. Plantain was not served fresh because they cooked it before we got here; yuck! The spicy guava chicken was gross. This was a waste of $55.86 for horrible food and service! We will never return! I would give them no stars but I have to click on one to post this review. They need to change this Jamaican restaurant to India restaurant because there is nothing Jamaica about it.

I 've had food here twice in the last few days. Impressive flavors! And just the right amount of heat, the kind of spicy that sneaks up on you. I 've eaten the beef patties, the plantains, and the Beach Party bowl. UH-Mazing! The beef patties were moist; perfectly flaky/buttery. You get large servings in the bowl, I just wish it had more plantains in it because they are sooo good. It 's nice to have that sweet contrast to the spicey savory fish, rice cabbage. The restaurant lacks ambience so if you 're looking for that it 's like eating inside a McDonalds. BUT the food is worth it. So, I will be back.Parking: Right now (July 2023) there is a lot of roadwork going on on Broadway. You 'll need to park on 36th St or one of the residential streets to the East and walk over.
