Chris is the best! Easy to work with, passionate about his food and great when interacting with clients. We used them for a large football team event and he was efficient with service but the guys had a great time interacting with him. They also raved about the food!

I’ve literally never had better food in my life. The jerk burrito will cause your soul to resonate with the realms of creation itself. You will reach nirvana and become the universe. That Skillo guy made me cry with his mastery of the culinary arts.

found this food truck at Amadio Ranch. I'm glad I stopped by. I had the jerk chicken burrito with the mild sauce. however they gave me a small container of the hot and man ate that so quick I was a little disappointed I ran out of the hot sauce on the first half of the burrito I may have to cry myself to sleep tonight. with that said dang this thing was good. Well balanced between the rice, chicken and veggies. definitely will be back.

I had the spicy jerk chicken. It was perfect loved the beans and rice as a side. I give it 10 out 10.

2024-01-21T05:12:51.767Z

The food here is no joke it is amazing I had the jerk wings and the oxtails! The plantains out of this world. Please don’t stop doing what y’all do. This is like eating at home comfort food!

2024-01-14T21:00:59.853Z

Food was AMAZING!! Wasn’t my time here but I’ll but now that they have the hub I’ll be back more often.

2024-01-12T03:03:08.163Z

Honestly the best tasting Jamaican food in Phoenix! I've had the Oxtail and the Jerk Chicken and it hits the spot every time. Would highly recommend

2023-12-29T15:48:38.932Z

Food was delicious. The jerk pork was well seasoned and juicy. Portion sizes are perfect. Was in town visiting family for the holidays and had a taste for some Jamaican food. Did not disappoint

2023-12-03T21:53:09.854Z

Ordered for delivery. Surprised with the generous portions. I’ll be ordering soon!

Let me start by saying as someone who makes their own jerk chicken from scratch and loves Jamaican food in general I highly recommend this place. There are a few things I believe they could improve upon but I totally understand with the current economy. I ordered jerk chicken with fried plantains and steamed veggies. The portion of the jerk chicken was small and so was the fried plantains but the price was pretty fair at 19.99. They ran out of steam vegetables but gave me a tasty fruit and vegetable drink to make up for it. Now to get to the jerk. I love spicy food and it’s hard to find places that will give you that because they are trying to appeal to various pallets of picky Americans but I ordered the jerk spicy and these guys delivered. Even I’d say that jerk had a spice to it. That jerk was straight fire. So flavorful I could taste the scotch bonnet peppers the thyme the bay leave the whole nine. My only honest critique on the negative side was the portion size. If they would offer a bigger portion of chicken or plantains even at a little higher price then there would be nothing to critique but like I said with inflation I totally understand the portion sizes. I also don’t like that you have to order online and can’t call in because you don’t know what they’ve run out of and I am a people person and like talking to people and I support peoples business more when I know them on a more personal level. I will say they make up for it with the 15 percent off for online ordering and they have lockers to pick your food up in. Which isn’t 100 proof as someone could walk in and cop your food. Two suggestions I would add is I love when the jerk sauce isn’t on the side and is smothered on very heavy and if they would offer more desert I would appreciate that as well but again I understand if when they do inventory and people aren’t purchasing those things it doesn’t make sense to have them on the menu. Overall I definitely recommend this place and look forward to trying red snapper escovich and curry goat if those things are on their menu. Keep up the good work guys.

Im from chiTown & aint had jerk this good since I caught my last flight. The food is delicious, excellent service, and portion size is worth the value. This is for sure my newest spot! Had to taste it before I wrote this #fire

2023-11-21T00:39:08.514Z

Other than the missing plantains which I was craving, the food was awesome. Definitely gave me the home feel that I was missing. The staff was polite and helpful. Pick up was smooth and efficient. I will definitely be ordering again. 🙏🏽😊

Visiting here this week had it's challenges, however the food we at here was an exceptional experience!! East coasters pride ourselves on having some of the best food. We have met our match with this authentic style jamaican flavor. Good food heals, food is mood, and we all thoroughly delighted ourselves and felt great afterwards! The pineapple ginger drink- excellent. Jerk chicken- couldn't get enough. Plantains- cooked to glazed perfection. Rice n peas/cabbage- give me some everyday. Oxxxxtaillllls- 10 stars, gratifying, hearty, and welll cooked!!!

2023-11-09T20:31:05.838Z

The jerk shrimp is to die for if your looking for real authentic jamcian food this is the place to go 1000%

2023-11-07T14:35:21.548Z

Im pretty picky because I am Jamaican myself, and grew up eating my mom’s amazing authentic cooking, but also making the recipes myself. I’ve tried other “Jamaican” restaurants in the valley, and truly was disappointed because they weren’t authentic, or good. This is the only Jamaican restaurant I will eat at. The Island Boyz really got it down to a science. The food is authentic, it’s delicious and brings back the feeling of home. Their fresh pressed juices are soo good. I wish they had carrot juice because that’s the only thing missing. If you haven’t tried this place you’re missing out.

2023-11-07T00:19:14.054Z

I had questions prior to placing my order. I called & all questions were answered. The person I spoke to also called me back as the call dropped while I was holding. Thank you so much for your great customer service & delicious food.

2023-11-02T01:41:26.488Z

Jerk chicken was delicious!

2023-10-29T00:29:51.291Z

Amazing and authentic. My oxtails, rice and peas, and beef patty were all the real deal. My new favorite Jamaican restaurant in the valley!

2023-10-28T00:15:15.163Z

My first time ordering from Island Boyz, so decided to order the Jerk Shrimp. After tasting how delicious everything was, I was wishing that they had more seafood options. I know from the reviews of their other dishes that everything must be as delicious as the jerk Shrimp meal but I don't eat any other meats except seafood. The flavors are authentic, I will remember to ask for some extra sauce for the shrimps.

At first I called with no answer; however, I was hungry and they served fresh food at the later time needed. I went to their working website and also received the 15% off first time orders! I was called back and the guy was super friendly and reiterated the 15% off first time orders. My food was ready in a timely manner. The quantity was enough food to last me for dinner and lunch the next day ! I ordered the jerk shrimp steam vegetables and plantains . It was ALL so flavorful! A bite of jerk shrimp and plantain at the same time is 10/10 recommended. Thank you island boyz jerk spot for getting me right !

2023-10-21T15:22:41.553Z

The management kept in contact with me as I was ordering late at night and the building was closed for the evening. The food was delicious!

2023-10-17T13:52:45.655Z

Best jerk spot in Phx!!!!

2023-10-09T02:04:32.590Z

Get you some of the best authentic jerk chicken, oxtails, festival bread, and rice and peas in the city. Everything is fresh and flavorful.Ginger pineapple juice will make you wonder how you went your entire life without it...and the jerk chicken burrito is something you didn't know you NEEDED until you try it.

2023-10-07T01:26:23.228Z

Like it’s actually worth it and they juice is the one all of them I love them so much I drank two in one day.

2023-09-20T12:29:48.415Z

This was some of the best Jamaican food we've ever had! We catered this restaurant for our Joint Bach party and everyone was beyond satisfied. Chris was very friendly and professional. If you're in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area, you have to try this place out!

2023-09-14T05:52:39.191Z

I absolutely love this place!! I recommend the jerk wrap!!
