A single tear fell as I eat the last bite, my wife asked "what's wrong, is it too spicy" No, these are happy tears. I realized my whole life I've been deprived of excellent Jamaican cuisine until now. Simply put I finally found the Usain Bolt of Jamaican food, the gold medal pinnacle of what Jamaican food should be.We both ordered from jerk chicken, rice and peas, plantains, cabbage, yuca, and broccoli, and two patties. I am thoroughly convinced that it will not have mattered but we ordered, the results would have been the same. After every bit we would look up and say "this is the best broccoli I've ever had, or is this the best cabbage I've ever had." So on through every element of the meal. My wife is Hispanic and was raised on yucca and plantain but it did not matter, this surpassed any experience that she's had with those foods before. The plantain had a sweetness to it that we think might have been cinnamon? Doesn't matter it was magical.The panties were different than any Jamaican Patty that I've had, starting at the crust, it was light and flaky and soft, bursting with flavor. In my excitement, I told my wife she has to try this curry chicken patty, it turned out to be a mistake as she promptly stole the rest of my patty!I live about 40 minutes away and I'll be returning to aventura, not to shop, but to eat!5 stars

This was by far the best food I've eaten in a long time and I travel. I will always come back here to eat. They treated me so good here the manager was great. Everybody was friendly and had a good smile. Food was fresh made right there. I got pictures.

If Bolay went to Jamaica and had a love child, it would be Jrk. Located in the Treat's Food Hall at Aventura Mall, Jrk offers a mixture of island cuisine in a bowl.It was pretty busy and noisy in the mall on a Saturday afternoon, but the line was moving steadily. All bowls include one base, one protein, three toppings, and a sauce. There's also patties, rum cakes, jerk mac & cheese, and cold beverages. Prices are moderate.After looking at the choices quickly, I decided to fill my bowl with rice & peas (base), BBQ chicken (protein), pineapple plantains, pineapple-mango salsa, and yuca sticks (toppings), with vinaigrette dressing on the side (sauce). I took the food home cause Aventura Mall is not a place I like to hang out at.Now that I'm comfortable at home I can proceed to give my views on the food:* Rice & peas - was cooked to soft consistency. Was delicious with a sweet flavor like it was cooked with coconut milk* BBQ chicken - was yummy. Tender cuts of chicken covered in a sweet BBQ sauce* Yuca fries - I like yuca, but never had them like this. Lightly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I could definitely eat more of this* Pineapple-mango salsa - the pineapple/mango mixture was very sweet and didn't have that tangy taste I'm accustomed of, but it was ok* Pineapple plantains - I don't know how they got these plantains to have a sweet pineapple flavor but it was real damn good!I thoroughly enjoyed the food and can see myself eating at Jrk again. I would prefer to eat at a location more closer to me though. I'm not always in the mood to drive all the way down to Aventura.

The best Jamaican food I've ever had in my life. First of all, I got there and they let me sample so many of the different items! I got the curry chicken and the jerk chicken and I also got some of the macaroni and cheese and my friend got the oxtails. I have no complaints and during my trip in Miami I visit this restaurant twice because it was so good.

Amazon jerk chiken bowl, best in SoFlo. Staff are knowledgeable of their products and the taste is out of this world. Located at the Food Hall in Aventura Mall you can't beat their 3 Bs... Bueno, Bonito y Barato.

OMG! When I tell you this place is outstanding. We were actually going on a cruise, but decided to run to Aventura Mall real quick. I checked the mall's app on the way to the mall to review my food options. Nothing jumped out at me so I had to walk around to actually look at the food. Needless to say, when I saw the food at Jrk...immediately YES.The food did not disappoint. We were all more than pleased. I'm catching a flight in January, I'll be back.

I so enjoyed the curry and jerk chicken and chocolate rum so much that I left the cruise port and went again before heading to the airport. The staff of young men were courteous and polite and the location at Aventura Mall was clean and nicely decorated. Great location and I would love to see expand to Houston, Tjx and Southern California. Thank you so much for a great product along with service.

This place deserves all the stars. I can't believe in it's a mall. It's so efficient too, meaning warm food, not dry from being under the heat all day, easy to select items with an easy menu and tasters. The food was great, chicken was moist, rice sticky and flavorful, everything was great. Service was great. It's like a jerk chipotle spot. They definitely need some influencers to promote it so I can see a line down the mall for their food cuz it's that good.
