The Jerk Spot is characterized by the aromatic bold flavors and unique blends of spices and fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Signature items such as Jerk Chicken and Oxtail are seasoned and infused with flavor using their signature Jerk Rub and Jerky Paste.
Owner, Troy, has a deep-rooted love for Jamaican and Caribbean food which has inspired him to share this passion with their customers and give them that island experience that is rare in the city. The Jerk Spot team pride themselves on consistency and presentation, and their meals are a statement of the heart.
