What People Are Saying About Ja Grill

The Editor

In Short – Locals can save the plane ticket, settle into a copper-y table and--eyes closed, ears tuned to reggae--imagine being where palm trees sway at this Jamaican restaurant and lounge. A large Marley mural--not to mention a menu of jerk classics, whole kingfish and curry--drives the point home. After meals, visitors can head to the basement-level lounge or bar in back for more Red Stripes and rum punch.

Decent

by KBBBB

The atmosphere is cool and great sitting outside in the summer. The food was OK, not memorable. Give it a shot- maybe you'll find something on the menu that's 'right up your alley'.

The Details on Ja Grill

Save Money:

While many of the dishes do come with sides like rice and beans, cabbage and carrots, plantains and bread, some also can be ordered a la carte for a few dollars less..

Know Before You Go:

Plan to allow 30 minutes for most entrees to arrive.

The Extras:

There's a children's menu that bypasses most of the basics in favor of dishes such as plantains and chicken stew.
