This place is great! Been here 2 times now. Both times the food was amazing and even better, the staff was beyond nice and welcoming. If you’ve never tried Central American Cuisine before I’d recommend this place to anyone I know. Keep it up I’ll be back soon!
Tried out a great, new restaurant in Jacksonville named "JD's Caribbean Cuisine" located on Western Blvd across from the Mall. Met the very nice owners, Delroy & Melissa Archer, who are from Guyana & Trinidad. This business is Veteran-owned (Delroy served in the USMC). We had the curry shrimp with rice and plantains, jerk chicken, and chicken and beef patties. The food was excellent and extremely flavorful! I highly recommend trying this unique restaurant and give it a high rating for quality of food, service, friendliness and cleanliness! Hours of business are Mon-Thur, 11-8; Fri-Sat, 11-9.
I’ve been contemplating coming here since they opened because of a few bad reviews. Finally today i gave it a shot and it was great. My son had oxtail for the first time and actually ate and liked it i was mostly surprised because he’s going through the picky phase with food. I also had the chicken patty and coco bread like a true fatty and it was great also. I’m a true Caribbean born in Guyana raised in Brooklyn where there was a lot of Caribbean restaurants. I’ve been stationed here for two years and haven’t found one restaurant to match my moms cooking or New York’s. But i must give JD’s their credit because the food was on point. 🙏🏾
It's been years but finally an actual Caribbean food spot here in Jacksonville. Excellent food and friendly staff.
Today is day two having lunch at this establishment and they didn’t disappoint! The food is amazing and the staff is absolutely awesome. This is the first Caribbean spot to come remotely close to my husbands cooking. I can tell it’s truly authentic...... I’ll see you all next week������
The food was amazing!!! The staff are so nice!! Try the homemade drinks if you can.... The hibiscus drink was really good. We will be back very soon!!!!
Just tried this place for the first time. The jerk chicken was very delicious as well as everything else. The plantains were so good too. Will definitely be going back again, very soon.
The food and service was awesome!! My husband had the chicken roti and I had the small brown stew chicken with coco bread. Both was good but the roti was da bomb!!! We will definitely be back!
Great food well worth your money enjoyed it a lot.
The beef patties and garlic/parsley rice are amazing!
The food was amazing. The beef patty and coco bread was awesome!!!!
Finally found a good Caribbean restaurant in town! GREAT food (I had the Chicken Roti�), service with a smile, and very clean. Definitely my new favorite spot in Jacksonville. #supportlocal �
Food is served hot and fast every time. The corn soup is awesome. �
JD's Caribbean Cuisine is a colorful and aromatic treat. My nose was tantalized by a mix of tropical scents. I could just stand the counter a smell the kitchen for hours.
I tried the jerk chicken with curried potatoes wrapped in roti with pineapple/ginger juice to drink. Simply delicious. The staff was very nice.
I'll definitely be returning to sample more of the menu. Do beware of bone slivers in your meat. Otherwise the visit was wonderful. Highly recommended
Everything here taste amazing and it is so clean here and they are up to date with the social distancing. I would highly recommend coming here!! The Jerk chicken is to die for and it’s well seasoned, the rice and peas is cooked just right and don’t even get me started on the macaroni and cheese 😩😩 omg!! It’s AMAZING
The food here is amazing and the service is great. The only thing I would change is the amount of plantains they give. Definitely not enough. Besides that I have no complainrs my favorite thing here is the Ox tail.
my favorite Jamaican food spot, I live in Virginia but every time I come to Jacksonville North Carolina I have to stop by because the food has too much flavor and is delicious, very clean environment and very friendly people!
When we're out running the roads doing Cracked It Escape Games business we love stopping to our locally owned businesses. JD's Carribean Cuisine on Western Blvd is amazing and authentic. Jerk chicken, peas and rice, meat patty and incredible slaw. Match that with house made pepper sauces, you will not be disappointed.
Get in here and give this gem a try. Why go to a chain when you can #buylocal
Absolutely loved everything I had today! Friendly staff, clean building, awesome food! I will definitely be back to explore the menu!
One of my favorite places to eat in Jacksonville North Carolina! The food has so much flavor! The Jamaican food is awesome!
The restaurant was clean and customer service was great and the food was amazing. Can't wait for my next visit.
Great food, very friendly ppl. Prices a very reasonable 🤗
The entire place was well cleaned and maintained. Very friendly staff who cultivate a friendly and inviting environment. All of this great, but let’s talk food. I got the jerk chicken, rice with peas, and fried plantains. I had a coconut water with the raisin rum cake, as well. It was a journey from beginning to end. All of the powerful flavors going together was amazing. If you are ever in the need for some clean, filling, comfort food, this is your place. I’ll be coming back here for a long time to come.
My husband and I just ate here. Were not experts on Jamaican cuisine but we have traveled there a half dozen times or so. We have eaten at local restaurants. This place was like being there again. We had jerk chicken and ox tail ,it was amazing . The service and staff were so nice. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
The food at JD’s is very rich and flavorsome. Great location and an amazing staff that provides a pleasant experience. Candidly, the food is worth the price you pay. This is the best restaurant in Jacksonville to stop and get some authentic Caribbean food. In addition, it’s a great locally and Veteran owned business.
Wow, amazing food! It was fresh and delicious. I'm very impressed with the jerk chicken, and the parsley rice is so good, the cabbage and the plantains were out of this world. I will be coming back. The lady at the counter was very nice. Thank you!
Delicious Caribbean food! If you're searching for something to eat that's different and absolutely delicious, try here. You can either eat in or take out. They offer a nice clean environment you can eat. It's very laid back, no need to dress up. The staff is very friendly and willing to assist if it is your first time trying them.
Amazing authentic Caribbean Cuisine! Staff is polite, music is good, and food is GREAT! Feels like your back on the Island! Could eat here a couple times a week!!! Looking for authentic, fresh, Caribbean food...look no further! JD's is the place your looking for!
