If you're looking for a taste of Jamaica in Cincinnati, Island Frydays is a must-visit! πŸ— The jerk chicken is simply outstanding - tender and flavorful, it practically falls off the bone. Pair it with their delicious rice and the brown stew for a comforting meal.

Although I received sweet bread instead of cornbread once (which was a surprise), the overall experience was fantastic. The atmosphere is casual and friendly, perfect for families or a solo lunch. The staff are super kind, making you feel right at home. Can't wait to return for more! 🌴
