Char Real Estate
We were greeted by a beautiful smiling face. Mama Merl was friendly, kind, and provided wonderful service.
What we Ordered.
Oxtails plate with cabbage, peas and rice -First off everything was seasoned well, not too much and not too little. My Oxtails were nice and tender and I received a good amount of everything.
Jerk Chicken plate with cabbage, peas and rice- It was served nice and hot and tasted good. The chicken tasted good with the sauce and was juicy and tender.
Side Wings: Cooked well. Nice smokey flavor. We enjoyed the crisp.
We will definitely be returning!

Good, authentic Jamaican food at a reasonable price. I ordered the curry chicken, and I really wanted the plantains for the side, but they were out for the moment, so reluctantly, I got the cabbage. It was delicious. It was grilled with corn, beans, red peppers, and herbs, among other stuff. The rice and peas had a delicious flavor without even mixing it in the curry sauce. The curry sauce was truly flavorful, and the chicken just melted off the bone. UPDATE: I got the curried goat today, and it is absolutely delicious. The goat melts in your mouth and is very spicy. The potato salad was very creamy and not sweet, like so many people make it. Looking forward to trying their Escabeche next!!

Absolutely amazing Jamaican food! The curry goat and oxtails were tender and full of flavor, and the rice and peas were incredible. Everything was so good that my husband and I came back a second day. And you have to try the pineapple ginger juice—your taste buds will be all over the place! Customer service was super nice and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Got the jerk chicken Mac n cheese and rice and beans. Food fed my soul. Ive tried every Jamaican place in the area since moving and was highly disappointed every time. This place is great. Chicken was juicy flavorful and tasted right off the grill. Rice was cooked perfect and im not a big rice fan and mac n cheese was great too. Definitely will be back to try that curry Goat

1000/10 would recommend Mama Merls Oxtail Philly cheese sandwich . Chef’s kiss In addition to the amazing taste, the ambiance is really great. I have also tried their jerk chicken, rice and peas and a few other dishes they serve. Trust me, this is authentic Jamaican flavor, the best in town

The food is tasty and the lady is so nice. The food truck is easily noticeable and the bbq items are smoked in front of you and smells so fragrant. The portion size is huge. With small businesses closing and not being able to maintain themselves, you need to try it instead of going to the same fast food restaurants again and again 🙂
