Island Jerk Hut

Sorry in advance for the long post! I had a wonderful experience at Island Jerk Hut!! Such a beautiful establishment with a wide open dinning area. It was super clean. The service was fast and quite personable. The staff was kind and knowledgeable. I ordered 2 large jerk chicken meals, one dark and one white. I got cabbage, mac/cheese and rice/peas with the meals. I also got two meat sides, one dark and one white. This was my first time dinning with them and I got the food to go. When my order came up the lovely young man opened the container and showed me the food and I was impressed! The portion sizes were not skimpy at all. Everything looked delicious and the presentation was on point. That was all before tasting anything. The food was amazing!! The meat was super flavorful, a bit sweet and a bit spicy. The dark meat was so juicy and honestly I was impressed by the white meat as well, as breast tend to be on the drier side, NOT OVER HERE! The cabbage was delicious and not overcooked. The mac was great as well. The rice and peas were a great base. And it didn't feel like all rice, no meat. I honestly did not need the sides of meat, however later me will be very pleased that there are leftovers. Everything paired together PERFECTLY. All of that to say that Rich and the crew at Island Jerk Hut will continue to get my money. I can't wait to try the other menu options, as I'm sure they won't disappoint l. 10 out of 10 would recommend. Side note I was too full to try the beef patty. And as soon as I figure how to add pictures I absolutely will!

Ordered Jerk Chicken (dark meat) with cabbage and sweet potato. This was the first time I ordered the sweet potato. Everything was excellent, excellent, excellent! Going back next week for a repeat.

Every visit is welcoming and warm. The food is always amazing. When they say everything in the menu is delicious, it's the truth. I had the pleasure of meeting the cooks and they just as warm and inviting you can tell the food is cook with love. My favorite restaurant in Virginia. I'll go out of my way anyway to eat at island jerk hut. The place is always clean and good music is always playing. It's the perfect environment for a relaxing lunch or dinner with outside seating. I'm in love with this place. 10/10 above average.. Parking: Parking spot right in front of the building making a short walk to this delicious haven

Never had Ox Tail as tender. I’ve been eating all wrong.

AMAZING!!!! The service, the food, the vibes are everything. I got the salmon Rasta pasta and tried my friends food who for the salmon escovitch and both were PERFECTLY cooked!! The salmon was blackened on the outside and fell apart the moment my fork hit it.
