    Great place for a light meal and cocktails or beers. Pizzas are thin based with a Carribean twist on the toppings. Service makes you feel part of the community and seems to be a very trendy place in the evenings.

    Went here during happy hour, while the drinks were good, the food was not. The platter we ordered had pulled pork tacos, jalapeno poppers, salad, chips and wings. The food was bland, with the highlight being the wings, which were at best just okay in terms of taste. The food also took a while to be prepared and brought to the table... only for it to be bland upon tasting, which is a rather big let down. The service was okay, although it struck me as odd, that the waiter requested we pay him in cash instead. The card machines brought to us, declined our bank cards (multiple cards from different banks), yet the table seated adjacent to us had no trouble paying by card, to another waiter.

    Food quality has dropped over recent times. Pictured below was the platter for 2, which was underwhelming to say the least. Still good views and vibes though.

    We want for takeaways , we were a bit confused at the beginning, they share entrance with another establishment ,maybe we missed the signs or it's not that clear, but we ended up at the lower restaurant.. Still the JamaicaMeCrazy is very vibrant, good place to have few drinks and snacks/food. I enjoyed my Trinchado with Cuban flat bread,and the pizzass were good, even the leftover slices next day we enjoyed as a snack. We recommend it as something new ,and to support local non franchise ..

    I called in an order, I wish they told me it would take 20 minutes after I arrive and pay, not it will be ready in 20 min. I was in a severe hurry and would have chosen elsewhere as I really could not wait 30 min after waiting 20 min to arrive. Unpleasant. Great Pizza though

    It is definitely a 'Jamaica me Crazy'. I love the food and customer service. 👌

    We had an early dinner here, 22/11, Unfortunately our experience here was not pleasant. For a jamaican restaurant, it is not very authentic or carribean. The food and drinks took to long. Food was average and bland. We had two underwhelming cocktails each. By the time our food came, we barely had a bite and the waiter came and asked us if he could move us to another table to accomodate a large group. Our waiter, was very unattentive.

    I'm seriously bummed out about our recent visit to Jamaica Me Crazy. Before the pandemic, it used to be our go-to spot, and we loved it. But things have really gone downhill. The service was super slow. And when the food finally arrived, it was just disappointing. The pizza was a joke, so thin it was like eating air. The schnitzel dish came in this pasta bowl with hardly any sauce. And those chips? They were fried in oil so old they were practically black. Don't even get me started on the cocktails. Who knew a Long Island could taste like water?

    Jamaica Me Crazy is the best restaurants/bar in the hood. The staff is very nice and makes you feel at home. You can drink, eat in a raggae vibe. I like to bring my students to this place. Food is excellent. Give a try to their pizzas. They are absolutely delicious. Tips: my favourite is the Ya Man Pizza. You have some food available as well during the load shedding. (So don't worry, be happy) I was already here in February and March, so I have built lots of memories in this place. I highly recommend it. The place to be crazy. B.J

    Very nice place... have not been since the mid2000's and it still ROCKS! Great service even when busy, drinks and food came out quick and were delicious. Awesome trip down memory lane.

    Had a super chilled time. Food was unique and really enjoyable.. lots of fun

    Chilled vibes, great cocktails, delicious food. The happy hour is fantastic. R35 Hurricanes are a dangerous pleasure. The nachos are delicious. Haven't tried any of the other food yet. Some of the friendliest staff. They remember a face and give the place a very family vibe that makes going here a whole experience instead of just a night out. I return here again and again for that perfect afterwork drink and snack.

    Did not eat so I can't comment on the food, but what was coming out of the kitchen looked awesome and I believe the pizza is great

  • 5/5 Cassie S. 4 years ago on Google
    Happy Hour specials are bound to leave any one smiling Absolutely my favorite spot to be on a sunny Sunday afternoon or even after work in the week. Their pizzas were also delicious and Crispy. The menu is extremely well priced and lots of veriaty. Would highly recommend this spot in winter and summer 👌

    Its really a great environment to go for late night supper & drinks. 🔥🔥🔥Family outings & friends night out. Never a dull moment✌ Definitely my new go to place.

    Always love Jamaica's! 👀 the food here is great and so is the view, in the trendy neighborhood of Woodstock. During the day, you can enjoy a quiet lunch with friends (or alone, with your laptop), they have WiFi and good service.

    This place reminded me so much of Cool Runnings bar in Town. It's small; cute with beautiful artwork on the walls. The service is amazing and the drink prices blew me away; they are affordable and the drink taste amazing. I loved how cozy it was
