I recently visited The Jamaican Pot and was pleasantly surprised! 🍽️ The jerk chicken and curry chicken were bursting with flavor, showcasing authentic Jamaican spices.

The standout for me was definitely the cabbage - perfectly seasoned and crisp, I could go back just for that!

Though it’s takeout only, the fast service made it a breeze for our company lunch. With $5 lunch specials that feel like a steal, we'll be returning for another feast soon!
