Johnny's Jamaican Grill

I stumbled across this jewel while I was in the NO for business and I read a few reviews and decided to give it a try. All I can tell you is the food is everything plus more. I have an affinity for Jamaican cuisine and this is it. GREAT experience and SUPER GREAT food.

I purchased two plates. One jerk chicken and curry chicken.

I pit-stopped at Johnny's truck this weekend off St. Claude and holy heck it didn't disappoint! For $20 I got a heaping plate of food that took me the next two days to finish. The seafood was fresh, the seasoning was divine. A New Orleans must!

Just left this place. I can't comment about the food because the guy in the truck had such an attitude I refused to spend my money there. I asked for plaintain... don't have it. Okay, tried to order the red snapper because I saw a good review. The menu says it can be fixed 3 different ways, fried, curry or jerk. I asked for fried... don't have it. Why is it on the menu? By this time, I didn't like his attitude. He was rude, short-tempered, and unpleasant. Nope! Not spending my money there.

This is the BEST Jerk Chicken I have had here in the city of New Orleans thus far!!! It's serve from a food truck. The worker was polite and efficient. We did not have to wait long for food. I enjoyed it so much I returned the next day for another plate.

My partner and I stopped at this food truck on our way home. I ordered the Jerk Chicken plate, which included vegetables, rice and beans, plantains, and jerk chicken. We were in line no longer than 10 minutes; the food was served fresh and quick. The vegetables and plantains were our favorite. The rest of the food was decent. Nonetheless, great service.

COVID: There weren't any gloves or masks worn.

Sustainability: The food was served in a styrofoam plate, and there were lots of napkins and plastic.

The BEST Jamaican Jerk I've personally had and would argue the best in the city. The plantains were super ripe and chicken was excellently seasoned I personally just like more sauce which they gave me. I chose to opt out of the greens though.

Just ok I had the jerk chicken plate. He ran out of fried plantains. And claimed he gave me extra chicken. He did not give me extra chicken and the plate was $18. It wasn't bad but I would never pay that much again for some ok food. I wouldn't go back.

Was craving oxtails, this did not disappoint, was exactly what I was looking for. Everything was fresh and delicious.

Unfortunately there was only a limited amount of items from the menu. The hospitality was terrible. The food was good though. I would most likely not come back though.

Oxtails were so good! Staff very friendly and neat set up with the outdoor dining and music. Great experience
