Pimenta

"Can’t find it anywhere else! Ordered the escovitch fish and was well balanced of texture and spice. Staff works hard to please and very respectful. Couldn’t compare to any other Jamaican restaurant"

"Food was good with a healthy amount of flavor, the jerk chicken did not disappoint, however be prepared for some of the harder parts of the chicken, some gristle and cartilage. Small fries were decent, waitress didn't offer ketchup or vinegar, and the restaurant does charge 20% table charge for dining in. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, just not good enough for me to go back. There was nothing offered there that I can't get anywhere else."

"Let me tell you…. This place is a 10 out of 10! The pigtail beef soup was AMAZING and the service was top tier. I loved the pictures of the various landmarks in Jamaica that they had around the restaurant. I will definitely be back."

"I’m a repeat customer but I must say this visit (#6) was a complete disappointment. We ordered conch fritters for an appetizer which was really good. I ordered oxtail, cabbage, rice & peas w/side of curry goat. My girl ordered the jerk ribs with the same sides for our main entrees. When I received my food I was excited because it had been a while since I’ve visited the restaurant, plus I was starving. I received my plate and went straight for the ox tails,. They were tough so I used a knife to cut them and when I took a bite, it was cold. Not like warm but cold. So I was immediately annoyed. At the same time, my girl sampled the curry goat I ordered and it was cold as well. Needless to say I was pissed at this point. Our server Nelly (she’s really nice) came by asked if everything was okay. I let her know that my ox tails and curry goat was cold, like it just came out of the fridge and the cabbage was cold as well. She offered to heat it up and quickly declined. I don’t trust food once it’s sent back. Just to give you a visual, if you’ve ever been inside of the restaurant, we sat in front of the window and could see directly in the kitchen. Nelly took my food back to the kitchen (I was watching the entire time), when she let the two chefs know what was wrong, I heard one of the chef’s say “DON’T THROW THAT AWAY” as she’s holding my plate. When I heard that I was done!!. I will NEVER eat there again. I stuck my finger in both the ox tails and curry goat to check the temp. It’s my understanding that any food that’s returned is immediately trashed. So if anyone ordered ox tails and curry goat after 6pm on 10/10, there’s a strong chance you may have been served the food that I returned. No more Pimenta for me, NEVER AGAIN!!! Also, there’s a 20% gratuity added to your bill regardless of the party size. The only person that deserved a tip was Nelly."

"This place is a whole vibe, great food, drinks, music and the atmosphere was amazing. Staff are friendly. Try the oxtails and curry goat and Jamaica punch as these items is a must. I recommend everything. Look at the plates and everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. Looking forward to returning soon with more friends and family."
