Eva's Jamaican Kitchen

Looking at the reviews I was skeptical about trying this place, but my fiancé saw a video posted by someone saying how good it is which made us come to a conclusion of trying it all out and see if this influencer really know what she's talking about. Their menu offered a bit more than Yah suh nice Jamaican which was why my fiancé chose this Eva's rather than Yah suh. The service need abit of improvement, there was no "Hi welcome in" like most small/big restaurant does to make their guest feel welcome. There's no enthusiasm in it as well and when my fiancé tried to order the jerk shrimp mild spicy which they said it has to be spicy but if you see in one of the picture with the list of item you can see 10pc shrimp jerk mild or spicy sooooo??? It had to be spicy???? Yeah alright then. Then why have Mac and cheese as a side if you can't order it as a side for your meal but can be purchased separately ???? The Cashier said it's " premium " there's no such as a premium Mac and cheese unless that Mac and cheese the come loaded with meat mtchhhh..... The ordering for take out in person need a better system cause why would you call out the order, instead of the name of the customer, what if someone else got the same order to avoid that issue they should start taking the name of the customer. Anyways here's what we try:Chicken patty - 5/10 - meat had no juice in it, was dry and barely any meat in it. Mac and cheese - 7/10 - noodles were overcooked, there wasn't really any flavor either. 2 meal combo Jerk chicken and oxtail - 7/10 the jerk chicken ( 3pc) was okay.... Didn't really taste any flavor on it imo, the rice and peas were alright not as good as taste of Jamaica. The oxtail was decent but only 4pc of it not really worth the $32 Jerk shrimp - 10/10 the flavor was good, the yellow rice was cook well and season properly. Overall the experience was meh.... Wouldn't really recommend this place.

You can always count on "Auntie" Eva to serve up some of Jamaica's finest authentic cuisines. Jerk chicken, brown stew chicken, curry chicken... she doesn't miss! I always have to order chicken patty and coco bread for the ride home. If you're ever in the area and have a taste for some real west Caribbean food then you must stop in and give it a try!

Delicious, hot and quick! Had the chicken curry, rice and peas, Kingston cabbage, and plantains. Huge portion! Can't wait to come back and try the cornbread.

Good day, I wanna share a recent experience I had a Eva's Jamaican Kitchen. I'm not interesting in bashing them so I waited a week before writing this review. Understand that I am a champion for Caribbean cuisines. And every state that I visit and stay I always have an eye open for a local Caribbean style restaurant. So here's my own personal experience.I was in the area for a medical exam that required me not to eat from the night before and my appointment was at 10 AM. So by the time it was completed it was lunchtime and I was more than ready to eat anything at this point. Lol, using Yelp I found this Caribbean restaurant that I had never eaten from before in Jax's. So why not give it a go. They were only seven minutes or so from the medical facility.Eva's kitchen is located in a small shopping center so there was plenty of parking. Upon entering their clean facility I place my order with ease. I probably waited about approximately 10 minutes and the food looked delicious ( they show you your order before they pack it away and hand it to you ). The service was quite professional.I had a beef patty with a Coco bread which was really fresh and a bottled drink soon as I got into my car lol and I save the food for dinner which we had proximately three hours later. I warmed it in the microwave for two minutes and let it sit for about three and then my wife and I sat down to enjoy.In the midst of our conversation about how our day went my wife turned to me and said this chicken taste old and that the rice and the food in general was lacking seasoning. I was definitely surprised because she was eating jerk chicken. I had the ox tails. And I must admit that it didn't have that flavorful taste ( punch / zing ) that I'm used to having when eating this particular Caribbean dish.Now I had to order their jerk mac & cheese as a side dish. I was confident that it would win her over. There is a lot of four star reviews for this Caribbean style mac & cheese dish. So when we both started eating it we quickly had a fork filled with chicken gristle from the joints. It was definitely ruining our dining experience. We questioned why wouldn't they filter out the gristle and bone splints from the chicken when they added it to the mac & cheese ? The jerk mac & cheese had good flavor but we had to eat the Jerk mac & cheese with caution because who wants to bite down on a chicken joint/gristle.I am disappointed in the experience. But I must note that they have more positive reviews than negative. And I am willing to give them another try but at a later date.

The customer service in here is horrible. I hadn't been in over a year and then I went the other day. I was quickly reminded why I hadn't gone back. They're ALWAYS out of something. I've never heard of a place where you can't,,, yes I said CAN NOT get mac n cheese as a side on a plate that comes with 2 sides, but you can order a side of it. Yes you read that right. You can't get it as a side on a plate but you can order it as a side. Never again!!!!

What a horrific experience. From the moment we walked in we did not feel welcome there. We asked for a to go box after dining in and were told that we were "acting privleged". The owner and staff are disgusting people. We have never been treated like this in the food industry. We had left them a tip and were unable to finish our meals that were handed to us from the start in to go boxes. We never got plates. My one year olds to go box broke and that's why we asked for another. How is that acting privledged???We will never return and will make sure our friends and family don't either. These people should NOT be running a business. You just don't treat others like that. We were in disbelief. I'm sitting here reading everyone else's reviews and I cannot believe how this owner is replying to people. What a horrible person. How is this place still in business?

The service was OK, but everyone working here seemed to be in a bad mood. We ate here a couple weeks ago. They all need lessons on how to treat their customers if they want to stay in business. You can't be rude to people just because you're having a bad day. Tables were not clean. The food was just so so, I've had much better. We won't ever go back, I would not recommend this place.

The attitude on the girl at the register was horrible and on top of that they were out of everything. I do not recommend anyone going to this place at all. They didn't even have a a freaking beef Pattie. I turned around and walked out.

True Jamaican stewed chicken and rice and peas...everything was delicious and I would definitely go back!

Ordered through UberEats. Food was hot with decent portion sizes. The cabbage side was really like unflavored lettuce but otherwise everything tasted pretty good.
