J&J Jam'Soul

Awesome! We use each Sunday & their cooking is the duplication of ur Jamaican granny + your Southern Granny.

J&J serves up really good soulfood. I tried the restaurant twice recently. The first time I had a jerk chicken meal and thought it was just OK. I expected more of the jerk grill smoke flavor, but everything else was fine.Though I must admit I'm happy I gave J&J another chance. The second time around we tried the Jerk Red Snapper and Brown stew chicken. The Snapper was amazing!!! It totally delivered above expectations for a takeout meal. The Brown Stew chicken was also good. For the sides, we tried the collard greens (realy good), black eye peas (good), and yams (really good). The black eye peas were a tad bit too sweet for my preference, but I am highly sensitive to the slightest bit of sweetness. The food arrived hot through UberEats.I highly recommend JnJ if you are craving soulfood or carribean cuisine!

I just moved to Tampa not too long ago and have been looking for some authentic Jamaican food. J&J Jam'Soul really hit the nail on the head. I've been a few times and the service has been consistently pleasant. There are tables to enjoy your food in the restaurant and you also have the option to order to go. The restaurant is clean and welcoming if you do decide to dine in. I ordered the oxtail with rice and peas, yams, and Mac and cheese. I also ordered a pineapple ginger drink which is the perfect combination of sweet and "spicy". Jamaican restaurants typically have a record of having bad Mac and cheese but I found theirs to be pretty good. The oxtail was fall off the bone tender and I enjoyed the yams although they might be a tad sweet for me preference. I will continue going back and trying new menu items!

I was able to eat at J&J Jam'Soul twice during my short stay in Tampa. The food was delicious!!!! I was able to try their oxtails, jerk chicken, mac and cheese, yams, greens, cabbage, corn bread and beef patty! No complains!!!! They had reggae playing and I was able to interact with other customers who were enjoying the vibes. Definitely a place I will visit again when I return to Tampa! And make sure you try their J&J Punch. It's a wine based rum punch and it's divine! Tell the owner Annie sent you!

The food here is amazing. You really gotta swing by. You'll be back to try the next thing, they never disappoint. The staff is very friendly. The pineapple ginger drink is the best. They have tons of desserts to choose from too. Cute little place conveniently located not far from highway!

Made-to-order is the way to go. Having converted to a vegan or "plant-based" diet recently, the offer a delicious vegetable chunk meal (seems like some type of plant-based protein patty diced up into small half inch chunks) made in your style of brown stew, curry, or jerk. I tried the brown stew - it was a bit sweet in my opinion, but a great alternative. The rice and beans, cabbage, and green beans were on point and marinaded with love. That ox tail was calling my name, but I stuck with my plant-based guns. The vegetable patty seems to have been passable for vegan - the owner made sure there were no egg or dairy-based products in the ingredients list. The vegan brownie was very... decadent and rich to say the least; think of like a brownie edible dough. Overall, I was glad they provided plant-based options. I feel like a lot of Caribbean/Jamaican joints are starting to offer more plant-based options.Order ahead for all made-to-order selections. Chef cooks it up fresh and there may be a wait! If you're looking for something ready to go, YMMV.Looking forward to trying the curry next!Overall, great experience. Staff was accommodating and friendly.

Great customer service great vibes music playing the food is absolutely amazing. 10 out of 10. The food is amazing in the oxtails their cornbread and curry goat, must have

The restaurant is super clean. The food is delicious, hot and fresh! They also put a good amount of food on your plate! I was welcomed with a warm smile as soon as I walked in and the ladies working there are very accommodating. The service was impeccable! Oh and did I mention the food is fireeeee!!!!!

Hands down the best Jamaican food I've had in a long time. My husband Red Snapper, Collard Greens, and Cabbage. As you can see, there is no photo because he demolished it...The service was great and I love the jazz music playing as we ate. Oh, we had Jerk Chicken patties, and they were amazing as well! We will be back!
