Repeat customer!The food and service have always been good! Flavor and portions always consistent. Ambiance: clean. casual, and the bar is nice.

Horrible! The food didn't match the picture. The service took and hour. And the atmosphere was loud with the party happening downstairs. But this wasn't the worse of it! They steal from you by charging a mandatory 20% tip charge for dining in and a 15% charge for carry out. Server didn't inform us of this charge. If she did, we wouldn't have ate there. Now did she deserve the 20% gratuity. No. She did not. She should've told us there was a charge for dining in. That's my tip! (Oh and if you're wondering, party size doesn't matter. You are charge even if you come alone). About the food: the rice was not fried as in the restaurants photo. It was more like a mushy rice. The flavors didn't impress me. It had the usual Caribbean taste of spices, herbs, and jerk seasoning. It was a bit salty. And because the rice was too soft it failed at being the jerk fried rice it was meant to be. Had to order something else (which the server expressed she didn't like). Now you know!

Wow! I was traveling through Memphis from Seattle, and Yelp didn't disappoint again! I rolled up to Curry n Jerk around 9pm and grabbed the best dinner I've had in quite some time. I ordered the Panamanian pasta with shrimp and chicken, and it was dope! For tyou old timers, "dope" means GREAT!I also had great service from Landon at the bar and all of the staff were super-friendly and attentive. Chef Mike even came to my table, asked how everything was, and explained the layers of cookies it takes to create such a wonderful dish.I'll be back!

Food is great. Smoky dining room is not. We decided to do takeout. Ordered the sampler, a beef patty,and the rum cake. Goat was a bit dry, but the oxtail and the curry chicken were irie! Rum cake got a lot better when we poured a shot of Bacardi 8 on it at home. Fix the ventilation and it gets to everything criss, man. Lata.

Food is good and flavorful with nice portions. I wish they offered fresh salmon vs frozen. The new location is open and has great booth and bar space.

Oxtail was fall off the bone flavorful. Love all the flavor and spice on everything we ordered. They had many customers even on the night the hurricane came through with torrential rain so you know the place is good! I can't wait to eat there again.

Y'all. Curry n Jerk was SO GOOD. Believe the hype. My personal favorite was the goat. It was my first try and it was so flavorful. All of the meat was tender and the portion sizes were quite large! Service was fast and the vibes were chill for a Saturday evening. I'll be back!

I was looking forward to eating some Caribbean food here in Memphis but was not happy with the overall experience. The waiter told me there was a QR code for the menu, I was reading thru the menu but the waiter was telling me what was on the menu. I hate when people do that, let me read the menu and ask questions if I have any.I told the waiter I wanted a Pattie and Coco Bread. Now when you say Patty and Coco Bread its normally Jamaican/Trinidadian/Guyanese style, iykyk. The waiter never explained to me nor did the menu say "Panamanian" style patty and coco bread. The waiter came to me THREE tines because he was confused about what I wanted. The chef then came out to ask what I wanted, I explained for the 4th time, I WANT A BEEF PATTY AND COCO BREAD!!! The chef then mansplains to me what it is and then goes on to tell me "Atlanta has fried chicken and New Orleans has fried chicken, and they're all different". I then ordered the "Curry and Jerk Plate (curry chicken and jerk chicken) and the curry looked correct in colour and it was okay at best. The chicken was rubbery, one piece still had blood oozing from it. The Jerk was not jerk, it was baked chicken with a mango chutney sauce on the side and a little Jerk sauce mixed in. The patty was shipped in and was the only good thing oh and the plantin' was good. Just say you're a Panamanian restaurant and that's it. Panama is not in the Caribbean.
