My husband is of Jamaican descent and when we moved to Raleigh, we despaired of ever finding something that was even close for him to enjoy. How lucky we were to find the Jamaica Marketplace! To surprise him one night, I ordered food to go from their restaurant and will do so again and again. The beef patties were hot and spicy, very delicious. I got hubby curry goat (a favorite of his) and he raved about how good it was. The portions on a large lasted him TWO DAYS! He has a healthy appetite and they really fill those to-go containers. The plantain was delicious and the cabbage is great. They also have desserts he is familiar with, like bean pie and coco bread. We will definitely be back. Also found a great jar of curry powder at a very fair price. I recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Jamaican food. You won't regret it.
Pros: Great food, interesting atmosphere, wonderful customer service
Cons: Some of the food may be too hot for those with a timid tongue.
