Review by Leonora Bartell

September 14, 2024

Southshore BBQ & Jerk is a hidden gem for Caribbean food lovers! 🌴 I swung by for lunch and was eager to try their famous jerk chicken. It did not disappoint - even the smoky, spicy flavor brought warmth to my sunny day. Their casual vibe makes it perfect for families or a quick bite with friends.

I paired it with rice and peas, which was comforting but could’ve used a bit more seasoning. The prices are reasonable, and they offer great vegetarian options too! Just a heads up, orders might take a little longer during busy times...

Overall, a delightful spot to satisfy your Caribbean cravings! 🍗✨
