Jamaican D’s

Excellent food! Good prices and large portions made this a great experience! I had to wait awhile for my food because they were making more so the woman at the counter through in a free drink!
The line situation was unorganized and some of the servers a little unprofessional but that was quickly overcome by the apology I got for the wait and free beverage. The BBQ jerk chicken wasn’t too spicy and had the right amount of sauce. The cabbage, peas and rice and Max & cheese were all on point and the portions are enough to save for part 2 (especially if you get a medium instead of the small). I’ll be coming back!

Hands down!!! Jamaican d’s is the best all around. Always consistent! Have never been disappointed! Can get super busy but they keep the lines moving… But worth the wait!

LOVE This Place! Huge portions and super tasty. This time I order a huge pan of candy sweet potatoes, family LOVED them. Next time I’m getting the Ox tails. Can’t wait!

I like Jamaican D’s over Ron’s. I did the taste test for curry chicken and this one came out on top.

The best Jamaican food ever! U gotta try them, u will be hooked! Hands down D! Oxtails, jrk chk, curry shrimp is absolutely amazing and all the sides are delicious! Jamaican D’S for dinner tonight!

The food is excellent. It is ALWAYS crowded but worth the wait. The ladies that take your order are not always pleasant if you’re a female ordering, but the food is so good I put up with the attitude anyway. They accept debit/​credit cards and the owner is really nice as well. I always get a small and the portions are very generous and last for 2 days.

Love this food truck — they have 3 locations. One at temple, one at CCP, and one store front. I keep coming back for their oxtail. The way they are seasoned is clutch. Their Mac and cheese is pretty good, and their collard greens has the bite you want with vinegar. We got to try their jerk salmon and it was seasoned well, but a little dry. Overall they give really big portions so you get more than your money’s worth. Their food sells out pretty fast — so get there early! I would definitely come back again and again to this place.
To get: definitely the oxtail, collard greens, and Mac and cheese.

Okay, I like the food, they have hardy portions. Why was it necessary to turn your face up when I ordered triple sides. I had my own rice and cabbage if you must know. It was my money I spent. There should be no feed back… Last time I went I got the wrong order, but that was cool. I didn’t get flustered it was still good. We come for the food not ignorance. I’m done (drop the mic!)

Holy Cow!
The food is good. Everything was good. The oxtail, rice and beans, mac and cheese (which I normally don’t like), collard greens, even mixed veggies tasted better than any i have had in the past.
5 stars for me. Will definitely be back soon.

I have been to the food truck on Temple’s main campus at Broad and Montgomery. It is by far the best food on campus and the best value! I have had the jerk chicken, jerk salmon, curry goat and oxtail. The rice and beans, greens, sweet plantains and mac & cheese are always perfectly done. They close at five so don’t wait too late!

Love this place! Always good food and huge amounts! Today was brown stew chicken and Mac n cheese!

This is the most amazing authentic Jamaican food I have even had! They give you a lot it’s amazing! I’m definitely going to come back

Hands down the best Jerk Chicken I’ve had in Philly. I ordered the small platter of Spicy Jerk Chicken with Collard Greens and mashed sweet potato’s. The total was just under $ 10 and that included a bottle of soda. The small platter was so big I had enough left to eat it for lunch the next day.

This is truly one of the best Jamaican food spots in Philly! Not only are the flavors uncharted but the consistency will keep you coming back. Everytime I get a platter I’m not only overly satisfied and left with wanting more but it doesn’t break the bank either.
For all platters less than twelve bucks you can always try something new and exciting. The food turnaround rate is unreal sometimes sold out of menu items so you’ll never get anything cold or old or won’t have to worry if something has been sitting under an heat lamp too long. For the flavor, price and consistency I will definitely reccomend Jamaican D’s to anyone who’s looking for those Caribbean or soul food flavors. Just be willing to wait in line a bit to enjoy the goodness.

By far the best Jamaican food in the city. I usually refrain from getting jerk chicken due to it always being dry. However the jerk chicken was moist and perfectly seasoned. The portions were very large. My fiancé and I ate it for 2 days and still have some left. I ordered the Oxtails while he ordered the Jerk chicken. The large orders came with 3 sizes each.
We definitely will be back to try more items on the menu.

This is definitely the best Jamaican spot that I’ve been too in the Philadelphia area. Not only is the food great, but the servings are huge. Process are very reasonable and the cooks are very honest and give you their honest opinion of what is good and what isn’t so good. The service is very fast for as busy as they are. I recently had the new location in Northeast Philadelphia. If you like Jamaican food Tuot have to check this place out. Their Oxtails and Jerk chicken are so full of flavor and even their vegetables are greatly seasoned.

The jerk chicken here is savory, salty, and sweet. I get mine extra spicy with the spicy oxtail sauce poured on top of my rice and beans. All their sides are delicious as well as the other entrees. However, I can say that some days the texture of the chicken can be a little tough and other days my chicken can be just right. I guess it depends on what time through out the day/​night you get there. But that doesn’t stop me from getting food from here. I am definitely a fan of Jamaican D’s.

My favorite Jamaican restaurant in philly. They give you large potions and food is awesome! Only con is the lines be soooooo long and they don’t deliver, otherwise this place would’ve gotten 5 stars.

This place is SOOOOOO good. Got here round 2 and it was packed! The line was wrapped around the dining room floor. Which is not big to start with. We waited about 10 – 15 mins which was not too bad considering we were about 10^th in line.
When we ordered we got curried chicken and shrimp and jerk chicken in mediums and with rice, collards and Mac and cheese. The curry was good, it was my first time having it but the jerk chicken was crazy good. I’m getting it next time. The Mac and cheese is the best thing I have ever ate. The collards are a little unusual. It tasted a little sour, wasn’t bad but I won’t get it again. Can’t wait to come back for more chicken!

If you are looking for comfort food made with love, great quality & quantity eats, down home cooked Jamaican meals, then Jamaican D’s is for you!
My husband would pick up dinner there for us on occasion (it’s really a take-​out place, but it always makes it home hot). He describes the staff as amazingly heartwarming & welcoming. He said they always served your food with a smile & prepared your platter like they’re feeding their own family (or an army). I mean PLENTY of food — If you’re still hungry after a platter, then you must have a bottomless pit of a stomach.
Basically having eaten through most of the menu, we suggest you try EVERYTHING! From the sides — cheesy goodness of mac & cheese, stewed cabbage, sweet plantains (Love), collards, or rice & beans. To their entrees — ox tail stew (some of the best I’ve ever had, including my own), jerk chicken (try if you like spicy as it has a nice kick), curried shrimp, and yes try the goat too!
You want something different, a satisfying gastronomic experience, something to transport you to another place when having a meal? Jamaican D’s food will do just that. Writing this review is making my mouth water as I’m thinking about the food there. (Does this happen to anyone else here? Trust me that’s a good sign because this girl loves her food.) I guess I know what I’ll be having for dinner today. Care to join me?
