So I found out that there are two Yard Jerks and since I love the one on East Main I thought I would try the one on Housatonic which is 1 mile closer. I loved it! My brown stew chicken was awesome, tender and flavorful. And the woman that served me was so nice. This will be my regular place for Jamaican food going forward!
Update: today I tried Jamaican curry for the first time, goat for the first time and tried them together. It was pretty good. Goat seems lean, with not much fat. It has a different, slightly gamier taste, but not too strong. A lot of little bones. For the curry I was expecting a coconut milk flavor like in some Thai or Indian curries I’ve had, but there wasn’t any. Overall this was pretty good and flavorful. The women at the counter were very nice, same as last time.
Next items on the list to try are: jerk pork, pepper steak and fried chicken!
My husband an I love Jamaican food. However this place was not the place to go to. They discriminate and are very racist.
There was Sign on window that said $6 lunch special. My husband went in and ordered the jerk chicken lunch special. When he confirmed how much it was, the employee goes on to say $12. when my husband questioned and asked why does it say $6 on the sign outside, the employee said “ that’s not a price for you man “.
My husband confused but still goes on to say it says $6 on the window lunch special, the employee just continues to say “ yeah and I just told you that’s not your price man”!
Not an ideal way to run your business.
I used to eat here and it was good I don't know what happened I just bought four meals jerk chicken, And I swear to you it was all burnt chicken, I mean like burnt that's all you taste was char You never again.... Paid for it, and had to throw it all out, it made the rice in the entire meal nasty.
Great lunch spot for some delicious jerk chicken. Food is cooked fresh and service is always great.
I used to love this place. But the last few times I've been I did not like the servers they have in there. Some kid, he looks really young, and also another young lady. Very skimpy with portions, don't give you any meat and no gravy. The rice is always dry. Ordered a brown stew, Jerk chicken w/ extra sauce and curry goat. I got only a portion of a thigh for the jerk chicken, no extra sauce, the brown stew barely had meat. And they gave me 2 pieces of goat meat with a little bit of gravy! I won't be back at the Housatonic location unless they replace the new servers they have in there. They won't be getting my business. What a waste!
The only complaint is the number of small bone fragments in the Curry Chicken with rice and beans. Was delicious. I ate every bite!
Some of the Best Jamaican food in Town. Tons of flavor, seasoned well, herbs and spices. The food is always fresh and tasty. Everything is hot and fresh and prepared well. They also have a great $5.00 lunch special that includes a soda. The service is outstanding always friendly and accommodating and the portions are generous. I love this place, whenever I'm in the mood for breakfast or lunch during the work week this is my 1st stop.
Very good Jamaican food! Bridgeport has alot alot of Jamaican restaurants and this is one of the better ones in the Port. Small Inside but don't let that stop you food is very good. The jerk chicken is very good and if you want jerk pork then you will need to ask for it they usually keep it in the back.
