The Rude Boy Jerk Chicken is a must-tryā€”seasoned with our homemade jerk spice blend and grilled to perfection over an open flame. If you love slow-cooked meals, our oxtails will not disappoint.

This is the BEST Jamaican food I had across two other major cities: Chicago and Denver. Try their signature oxtail dish with the white rice and fries. You will not regret it. Thank you, guys for such a great experience
