My husband and I stumbled across the Great Southern Box Food Hall while looking for a spot to grab lunch the other day and he was excited to see Kayos Jamaican food. They have a variety of Jamaican fare from jerky patties, jerk chicken, ribs, plantains, macaroni and cheese, and much more! He started with a sweet tea, a spicy jerk patty, curry chicken with rice, plantains, macaroni and cheese, and a side of jerk sauce. The meal was a good size and came with a plastic lid in case you have leftovers. The curry chicken was tender, flavorful, and delicious. The jerk patty was warm, crispy outside, and had just the right amount of heat. The jerk sauce had good flavor and wasn't too spicy. My husband likes his jerk sauce hot, so he asked if they had one that is hot and they made him a hot sauce that really packed a punch! Great service!Rating from F to A+++, we give it an A++.

I visited this restaurant within The Great Southern Box Company food hall. This restaurants menu jumped out at me, and I knew I had to order a bowl from them. The staff was very friendly and helpful when it came to ordering. The whole menu is creating your own bowl with 1 protein, 1 base, 3 sides, and 1 sauce.I chose BBQ chicken, yellow rice, sweet plantains, corn salsa, cornbread, and pineapple ginger sauce. They also have bottled sodas and juices. It took about 15 minutes for the food to come out. My food was all very flavorful. Decent portion of meat but do with there was more corn salsa in comparison to the yellow rice. The sweet plantains were some of the best I've had. While the pineapple ginger sauce was good it is more of a juice and not thick like a sauce.I am interested in returning and trying the jerk chicken.

I came to this food hall excited to try some good Jamaican food, but that excitement was short lived I ordered the jerk chicken with rice and peas, cabbage, sweet plantains and macaroni and cheese. The rice had to be made yesterday or maybe 2 days ago. The macaroni and cheese was dry as if it had been sitting under a heat lamp for the last 12 hours. The jerk chicken is chopped chicken breast and whoever seasoned was very heavy handed with the salt. The best thing in my bowl was the cabbage which was sauteed correctly and very savory. This place made me come out of Yelp retirement, it is straight up trash. Oh wait I also had a chicken pattie that was so dry that the inside was crunchy

Decided to try this establishment when visiting the new food hall and I was disappointed. When I asked the female attendant about the 'Rasta Pasta' ($18) she was not informative at all - basically had a blank stare. Regardless, I decided to give it a try based on the picture they had of the pasta on their counter (a pasta that included chicken, peppers, in a cream sauce). They said they would text me once the order was done and after waiting 40 minutes without a text my husband went to ask if our order was ready and apparently it was in the warmer. When I opened it I asked him if it was the correct order because it looked NOTHING like the picture. So I went to the counter with the pasta and asked the girl about it because it looked nothing like the picture. She went back and got the owner/cook and he said 'oh it's just the parsley on top. I can give you some parsley', to which I said 'it's not the parsley, there are no peppers and the color is not even the same'. He literally went to the back and just chopped up peppers and put it on the dish. While I appreciate him cutting peppers, that's not what the picture looked like!!! The peppers were clearly cooked/grilled in the creamy orange colored sauce while my pasta looked like a cool yellow color. So between the non-informative employee, the long wait AND not getting what I paid for, this place is a hard PASS!

Staff is incredibly friendly and patient with any questions you have about their offerings. Everything I had in my bowl was fresh and absolutely delicious. I had the curried shrimp option and it really could t have gotten any better... so flavorful! I would definitely go back to try other items they had. It's a verbose and eclectic menu!
