De Palm Tree - Saint Albans

The oxtails were amazing. I will eat here every visit to STL.

Our first visit so we went with the j chicken to sort of get a feel for if we want to go back. We do! Very simple meal but very flavourful and satisfying. Generous portion of protein and veggies.

I have visited several states and have had jamaican cuisine and I have to say that De Palm Tree is the best I have had. I've eaten there several times for years and I've never written a review, but I miss this restaurant so much. The flavor and how well it's cooked is consistent. The red snapper was cooked crispy and seasoned to the bone, the rum punch was some of the best, and the oxtails were some of the best I've ever had. The family that runs the restaurant is so friendly. The elder mother is my favorite to talk to. Constantly checking for you to re-open because none of the other spots in St. Louis can touch you!

This is one of my favorite spots!! I'm so sad they're closed right now and hope they open up before I leave town again!

OMFG best Jamaican food I’ve ever tasted! The j chicken is moist, spicy, and fresh. The rice and peas, and cabbage were awesome! I had a rum punch, this is a party starter! Buy a bottle or two. The flavor was amazing, the portions are huge, and not just sides.They also have baked red snapper, ox tails, curry goat, I can’t wait to come back and bring my family!It takes 20 minutes for the food, and there is no inside seating or tables, but it’s worth putting up with the wait and COOF restrictions.
