I don't have a Jamaican mama but I feel like the oxtail at Just Like Home would be exactly what I would want her to make! It is so tender, flavorful, not greasy, and the portion is very generous. The rice and peas is some of the best I've ever had and the side salad has the perfect Italian style dressing to cut through the richness of the oxtail. I highly recommend getting the pine and ginger juice as a thirst quencher. I loved it so much that I got another order of oxtail and a curry chicken to take home.

Crazy good Jamaican grub,you better ask somebody! The first time there, I got Curry Goat . Very tender with lots of flavors going on and the right amount of heat.

Food was awesome and the young lady who served us was equally as polite and served us an authentic Jamaican plate. I can't wait to return. It was the most authentic Jamaican food I've had since I last ate the real deal! I'm so impressed by this 'food truck'! They should have a restaurant. It would stay full of patrons!!

Oxtail and goat curry were both tender and flavorful. Meat was well prepped and not gamey or fatty. She put some stew on the rice - not enough to be wet wet, but enough to make ya happy. Salad was fresh and well dressed. Very filling portions and a good amount of meat. Utensils and napkins are available. Truck looked very clean inside. We took our food around the corner to Kubota Garden to eat at the picnic tables.

On a Saturday afternoon after running a heap of errands in south Seattle I was famished! I needed sustenance of a homey sort nothing fast or fried would suffice. The thing that was on my mind and heart was OXTAIL! I'd been craving the succulent meat for a while with no hope of ever finding a restaurant near me with the option. I searched Jamaican and this restaurant came to the top of the list. Within a close proximity too! I scurried as fast as I could to the location. When I pulled into the parking lot I noticed a small mart and across from it was a modest food truck wrapped in the colors of the Caribbean and I KNEW I was in the right place. The single operator was outside of the truck erasing something from the board and my heart sank. I knew what was being removed in my soul I knew... I approached the truck and saw with a heavy heart the oxtail had been sold out. That didn't stop me I bantered with the kind lady that was attending and I ordered a plate of curry chicken with a side of Sorrel. OUTSTANDING! The flavors were rich the meat delicate and of course cooked to perfection. The fresh thyme sprigs weren't just there for show they did their job too! I know exactly where to go when I'm craving a good authentic Jamaican meal and they serve breakfast too! I'd advise to check the hours before arriving as well as maybe giving her a call. You won't regret the meal nor the sleep after it's been consumed. I will be making a steady appearance to this place albeit the price is reasonable the satisfaction is priceless. Thank you Just Like Home!

Just picked up my food and it's amazing. I've had authentic Jamaican food for aa long as I can remember and this does not disappoint. No idea what the entitled poster Yen A. is talking about below with the 2 stars. It's their business and they have the right to have specials or certain items offered on certain days. Plenty of restaurants do that. Their portions are NOT lacking, and often certain meats DO have a lot of bones. Sounds like to me they've never had food with seasoning and culture . Will definitely be returning this hit my pregnancy craving, so glad I stumbled on it!
