Jamaica Corner - Jamaican restaurant in Miami - 204 NE 1st St, USA

I came at lunch, paid abt $20 for an oxtail plate. Portion size was very good imo. Flavor-wise, I thought the quality of meat and size of the oxtails was good, but they needed more seasoning. The beans/rice, cabbage, and plantains were all pretty average/typical. This place would def hit the spot if u were hungover getting carry out. No real reason to dine in here tho.

The food was BUSSIN!!! I’m visiting Miami the night before the cruise and I was looking for some food to eat and stumbled upon the Jamaica Corner. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We ordered oxtails and jerk chicken and the food was top tier. We also enjoyed the island sodas. I would definitely return.

I love this place! I eat here a few days a week or as often as possible. The staff is really nice and professional. Everything I’ve had is good, I’ve been eating Jamaican food for over 25 years and definitely recommend this place.

This was probably the closest tasting jerk chicken to what I had in Jamaica (which I've tried several other places that didn't even come close). Delicious flavor. I got the lunch combo jerk chicken that came with rice, some kind of beans, and cabbage; good portion for about $8.50. Service could be a little nicer but the food was so good i don't think anyone cares 🤣.

Proof that you can still get a hearty, tasty plate lunch for $5.99 in downtown Miami. Literally the best deal I’ve found in the whole city, and the food is solid. I especially enjoyed the jerk chicken, which was spicy enough to not even need hot sauce (rare for me since my heat tolerance is so high). It’s definitely a dive and located on a sketchy block of downtown but what do you expect at these prices?! If I worked downtown I would certainly be here once a week (or more).

This is not rice a peas. It’s literally white rice with a couple beans in it 🥴. Should’ve threw this batch away and made new rice cuz this was disrespectful. The oxtails were chewy and mostly bone. The gravy watery and lack flavor. Only thing good was the plantains and steamed vegetables. Mad I paid $19 for this.

Hands down, this the best Jamaican food I have had in Miami. Everything is full of flavor!! The oxtails are perfect and not sweet. The curry goat have the right amount of spice and is seasoned PERFECTLY!!! The person at the counter is very friendly and welcoming 💕

The food is delicious and worth it for the price. I paid less than 6 dollars for the dish I ordered and it included chicken, rice, cabbage, banana and beans. There were very few beans, there was more rice in the dish and that's why I didn't like it so much. It's simple food, if you're not looking for sophistication and want cheap homemade food, this place is great for you.
