The oxtail and jerk chicken at Jamaica Cuse are out of this world! The oxtail was tender and full of flavor, and the jerk chicken had the perfect blend of heat and smokiness. On top of that, Kiki made the whole experience even better—her kindness and positive energy are unmatched. Great food, amazing people. A must-visit in Syracuse! ????????

Jamaica Cuse catered my event last night and it was a 10/10! Great service, totally delicious, and a huge hit with the students. We ate every single bite. I would definitely go again! We got the curry shrimp, rice and peas, cabbage and plantains and it all was packed with flavor. Give it a try!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing experience at Jamaica Cuse in Downtown Syracuse! This place is the real deal when it comes to authentic Jamaican food. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. The restaurant is spotless, the atmosphere is full of good vibes, and the prices are more than reasonable. I had the pleasure of meeting Kiki on my first visit, and she truly made my experience unforgettable. Her warm spirit and incredible hospitality stood out—she treats every customer like family and makes you feel right at home. I ordered the oxtail with rice and peas, plantains, and cabbage, along with a large cup of chicken noodle soup—everything was absolutely delicious and full of rich, authentic flavor. I mentioned that I wanted to try ackee and saltfish with boiled dumplings for breakfast the next day, and Kiki made it happen. When I came back in the morning, my food was ready and waiting, just as promised. And let me tell you—the flavor was phenomenal. There’s convenient street parking, and the vibe of the place makes you want to keep coming back.

I have no bad comments to say. If you are looking for a nice cultural spot to eat at this is it. I love how tender and well done the meat was. The rice was made with love and the flavor was rich. I really enjoy this new addition to Syracuse.
