This place is next to the Marriott Courtyard so a convenient walk to Sweetwood. I had the pork and chicken with a festival and potato salad. The pork was good as was the chicken but beware of chopped up bones. The potato salad was so so while the festival was very good.

Our hotel recommended this place to us so we took the hotel cab and went for dinner on our first night in Kingston. It happened to be Valentine's Day so although it was meant to be (we understand) reggae karaoke; we had a good half an hour of 80's love songs which was funny. I had lamb and my husband had pork both of which were good. Service was fine and our waitress friendly. It poured down but this didn't have an effect of our evening, we were dry and had a fun evening. Big menu with local and international dishes.

I usually write about sit down restaurants but this place is one of the few âroadsideâ jerk pits in Kingston that has now become part of my regular eateries. Firstly everything on the menus is excellent so bring your appetite and your familyâs sense of culinary adventure if this is going to be your first foray into topical Jamaica Jerk and try a bit of everything ! My favorite you ask ? Well Jerk Pot Pork.. there is nothing better in my opinion!

Having visited Kingston on several occasions, this restaurant has always been on the list to visit and we finally made it.Parking is plentiful and the restaurant itself is in very pleasant surroundings.Our waitress was friendly and efficient and we were seated by the pool and bridge.We ordered vegetable pasta with an Alfredo sauce, vegetable pasta in a pesto sauce and I had snapper with a scotch bonnet sauce. All of them were very nice and the sauces that went with the 2 pasta dishes were excellent. Portions were really large so unless you are a renowned trencherman , I wouldnât have a starter!!Certainly worth a visit.

2. Chive
Contemporary dining and bar with indoor and outdoor seating in a cobblestone courtyard with a pond. Vegetarian and gluten free menu options are available. Open for lunch and dinner.
Reviewed By Nancy G
Chive opened in November 2018, and I took a friend for lunch in late March, 2019, hoping they had ironed out the challenges inherent in opening a new restaurant. Certainly, the menu choices very interesting and varied and the waiter was both friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes of offer. However, service was extraordinarily slow. We were in the restaurant for two hours - not an amount of time that most folks can invest at lunch time. However, the food was very good, and the house salad dressing was so special that it warrants ordering a salad simply to have the dressing. The pasta was also very good. Recommended for lunch if one has lots of time to invest.

I've been there a few times after work and always found it empty of other customers. The bar is stocked and beer is cold but the food menu is usually restricted to 2 or 3 dishes that are often served just warm. Expect slow service despite the absence of other customers.thanks for your response... we are upgrading our facility to include a night life... thanks so much please come back ... we welcome the constructive comments ..one luv..
