Island Jerk is a little treasure tucked away in Roanoke. The jerk chicken strikes a lovely balance of spice without being overwhelming, and the ox tail is definitely among the best I've tasted in the area. Rice and beans are perfectly seasoned; I found myself savoring every bite! The owner’s warmth adds a unique charm to the experience - he's genuinely fun to chat with. While some items could use a flavor boost, the overall experience here is absolutely worth it! 🌟
