Jerk at Night is hands down the best Caribbean food I’ve had in the DMV! The customer service was over the top; warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. The staff made sure everything was perfect which added to the whole experience. Now, the food? Absolutely amazing! Every bite was full of authentic Caribbean flavor, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Whether you’re craving jerk chicken, oxtail, or any of their signature dishes, you won’t be disappointed. The portions were generous, and you can tell they put real love into their cooking. If you’re looking for top-tier Caribbean cuisine with unbeatable service, Jerk at Night is the place to go. Highly recommend!

I’ve been getting jerk wings and cabbage from them for years. Glad this location is back open. Food is pretty darn good everytime I go. They can use more staff in the front or at least someone who knows what they are doing. This brand can easily take over DC with a bit more structure and training. Nonetheless, the food is always 10/10 ! Can’t go wrong here

This place is incredible. We showed up a few minutes before close and not only were they kind enough to let us place an order so late in the day but they were really kind and attentive. We were soaked from the rain coming from Warped Tour and they offered us napkins to help dry (so thoughtful!). The food was so so good too. We got the chicken and rice and the chicken was well cooked and so flavorful. My favorite was the slightly charred bits that were super crispy. The mac and cheese was really good too, might be some of the best Mac and cheese I have ever had. The preparation was a bit different than usual and something about the seasoning and flavoring just worked really well

Up north we have great Jamaican food so I am always scared to try it anywhere else. Jerk at Nite might be the best Jamaican food I ever had! Jerk Wings/Plantains/Rice and Peas were all . I will definitely be back whenever im in town

I had an amazing dining experience at a restaurant with Jamaican vibes. The well-designed space and top-notch service made the delicious food even more enjoyable. Caple and Akelia's attentive and caring approach truly made me feel valued as a customer. I can't wait to return and experience this wonderful hospitality again.

Long wait but worth every minute of it. We were served super quick when we were seated and every bite was delicious. We didn’t have a single dish that wasn’t good. Ambiance was vibes. Marisa was a darling and let my kids order some patties while we waited. Also the other gentleman serving us was soooo sweet. They were out of rum cake so we just have to come back soon. 10/10 recommend.

The Mac and cheese is a MUST HAVE. Our server Daniel was very personable and made our dining experience enjoyable. Marissa the manager was on point making sure our dinner was to our standards and did so with a positive and friendly attitude. The music was on point and at a good volume so we can still have conversations without straining to hear. Big Up yuhselves
