Jamaican cuisine combines culinary techniques, flavors, spices, and influences from the island's indigenous peoples as well as the Spanish, British, Africans, Indians, and Chinese who have lived there…
just WOW! Absolutely incredible. Generous portion for the afforable price. Everything was cooked to perfection, my mouth started to water as soon as I opened the lid and smelled the Oxtail. This my first time ordering from Ocho Rios and it will not be the last! Better than I could have ever hoped for.

Jerk Chicken & Oxtail -
The oxtail was very tender & tasty.
The jerk chicken was flavorsome & mildly spicy (2 pieces, 1 leg/drum & a thigh cut in half).
Rice & peas were cooked evenly.
The plantains were nice & sweet.
The steamed vegetables weren't overcooked.
I ordered a large portion, the meat servings could be more for the price.
Overall, I'd rate the order 4/5. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ocho Rios is top 1 in the city of Ottawa for Caribbean food. You get your moneys worth because the portions never dissapoint. The flavours are immaculate and endless options. Once I went to Ocho Rios and they were giving free food to the city and YES OXTAIL WAS ON THE MENU!! I love this restaurant and continue being the best !!

I ordered the 1. Jerk Chicken & Oxtail and the 12. Ackee & Saltfish & Fried Chicken. The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender and delicious. It arrived hot and fresh, portions were generous. These are my favorites and order them again and again. Filling and hearty eating!
