Jamaican food in NYC
234 Jamaican restaurants in New York City, listed by borough.
Jerk chicken, smoky and fiery with scotch bonnet and allspice, is the headline, but regulars order oxtail stewed with butter beans, curry goat, or ackee and saltfish, the national dish. Sides are rice and peas, fried plantain and festival, a sweet fried dumpling. A beef patty in coco bread is the city's cheapest good lunch.
Brooklyn has almost half the city's Jamaican restaurants, packed along Flatbush, Nostrand, Utica and Church Avenues through Flatbush, East Flatbush and Crown Heights, home of the West Indian Day Parade. The Bronx has a second hub along White Plains Road, and southeast Queens a third. Expect plenty of Golden Krust branches alongside the family-run spots.
