We tried this restaurant once, food was good and we decided to try it again, the first visit we had a very friendly(cook server and cashier wrapped into one) it’s not the fanciest place in town but the food was good. On our second visit we were treated rudely and I mean the man behind the counter literally jumped down my throat when I asked for a menu to take to a table, he told me there is no table service as he looked at us with contempt, as other customers walked into the restaurant he greeted them with a hello and a smile,(they were all black) so the moral to this review is if you are white you are not welcome. Now the restaurant is not in the greatest area of AC even a little scary to walk the streets in the daylight. If he was white and treated a black person in such a disrespectful manner I can just imagine the outcome. If they don’t want white people to enter there restaurant put a sign in the window. No whites allowed.

I read the reviews and was in the next town over so I decided to stop in there. The cashier was very friendly, we were getting take out, hence the 4 stars instead of 5(since I don’t know how the waitstaff is). My daughter and I shared the oxtail dinner with mac and cheese and yams. OUTSTANDING! We ate it when we got home, 15 minutes away and I told my daughter to be on standby because I might need to send her back in a couple of hours. Delicious!

Will probably just do takeout next time. We tried this place for lunch after reading the high rated reviews. I have to give this place good(not great) marks for the taste of the food and the speed of the service. I deduct points for the atmosphere. This place is a bit of a hole in the wall with no real décor, no authentic Caribbean music and the ambiance of a DMV waiting room. And on top of that it was hot in there. Not sure if the AC was broken that day but it was hotter inside than outside. We order 3 lunch specials with jerk chicken, curry chicken, rice and beans, cabbage, and Mac n cheese. The taste of the food was good, solid. My wife prefers dark meat and her curry chicken was breast meat but that’s mostly my wife’s fault for not checking the menu. The Mac and cheese was tasty. Jerk chicken and cabbage were my favorite. The lunch specials were 5.99 each which is a great price. The special came with a meat and two sides. As I mentioned this place was pretty fast in delivering our dine in food to our table. I should mention that our food came to our table in styrofoam takeout containers and plastic forks. All this leads me to the conclusion that this place makes a pretty good takeout place and no so great dine-in. Not a place that is so much a destination place to eat like Kelsey’s or Kelsey and Kim’s, both of which are a few blocks away. I would frequent this place however if I worked in the area as the food is good enough to return.

I was searching through Unilocal to see what’s good around AC. Came across the reviews for Yard yang decided to give it a try on my way back home. Let’s say I’m excited I stopped in. I ordered oxtails, cabbage and rice and peas and ordered curry chicken with the same size for my son. My oxtails were perfect! I haven’t had oxtails in so long and throughly enjoyed these fall of the bone beauties. My son hasn’t had the chicken yet he’s too busy eating my oxtails. I’m sure they’re just as good. I already threaten the kid if he was even considering having another. I will be back there for sure!

Authentic Jamaican food. Good sized portions. The jerk chicken is served bone in like it should be and chopped to order

I’m glad I found this place on Unilocal.I had the oxtails, cabbage and rice and peas. The food was excellent and the portions were generous, will definitely be back when I’m in the area. Oh and the beef patties are a must!

I’ve been here twice, and if I lived closer I would be here at least once a month. The food is SSSOOO good. My family is Jamaican, so I know good Jamaican food. This is definitely some good, home cooked Jamaican food. The seasoning and the portions are perfect. The service is good, they don’t bother you every minute to see how you are doing, but often enough to make sure you are good. It is clean and pretty spacious. If I’m ever back in AC, I will be stopping by.

My boyfriend and I came down from a mini vaca to Atlantic city. So when ever I go away from home I always use Unilocal to find the local hot spot. So being from essex county Caribbean restaurants come a dime a dozen. Yardys has by fair the best curry goat I have very had. It was spicy but not in a bad way it was perfect. Very tender. My boyfriend got the oxtails and he said they were to die for. When we come back down this will be a must.

Love this place! I’ve been to a few places in Philly but Yardy beats them hands down! The Curry Goat wasn’t as «goaty» as some other places. Always fast, friendly and affordable. Very clean as well. Entrees come in three sizes. Don’t be fooled, the small is more than enough. Do check them out!

I came here craving for a Jamaican style beef patty. But they didn’t have any at the time!!! Other than that everything else was good and cheap price. The oxtail was great.

THEBESTCARRIBEANFOOD I EVERHADEVER!!! The staff is a bit wishy washy, but it is clearly teenagers earning their keep at the front counter. Either way the food is fresh! Tasty, great portions and great prices!!! I WILLEATHEREAGAIN and I suggest if you want to get out the mundane boardwalk food and pizza to make the trip up there. It’s on the block adjacent to claridge!
