Jamaican cooking

At 14 Parish Caribbean Kitchen we cook Jamaica the honest way - seasoned to the bone, slow and low, and never rushed. Oxtails braise until they slide off the bone, chicken gets real smoke, and our house-blend of island herbs carries every plate. From our Hackensack kitchen to your table, this is sun-drenched, soulful, unapologetically island food served with rice, two sides, and a whole lot of heart.

This jerk chicken is so delicious! It tasted like authentic Jamaican cuisine...not just some jerk sauce slapped on some chicken. Made me feel like I was in Jamaica! This was our first time ordering from here. We will definitely be ordering again!

I recently moved to Jersey from Brooklyn and there's no Caribbean food in my immediate area. I got a hankering for some jerk this evening, and without knowing what to expect, ordered from this spot, which was kinda far. I got a large jerk pork, rice and peas, and mac n cheese to split with my friend. Oh my goodness! Amazing. The jerk tastes authentic- they put this in a drum for real. It's sweet and smoky and spicy and NOT overly fatty as jerk pork tends to be. The Mac was surprisingly good. The rice and peas fluffy and coconutty! I'm impressed, Jersey! Oh and the portion was significant! Two people can get full off the large.
