“ Just sat at Narsties Spot after finishing our meal. We had the Jerk Chicken with rice and salad as well as the Mac n cheese and dumplings. The special was Curry Chicken. The food was sensational! Could not fault it not overly salty or anything. Seasoned perfectly. It took 15 mins from sitting down for someone to come and take our drink & food order but the strength of the drinks and quality of food made up for that. It wasn't overly busy and a nice chilled atmosphere. Deffo recommend ”
“ Portion size good, authentic Caribbean food not so much. It was delicious but not what we would class as authentic. Bianca was amazing, really attentive, and really sweet. She greeted us with a friendly smile and treated us like friends. We won't be back based on the food but we felt Bianca needed recognition. Good value for money the rum punch was great. ”
“ Food was brilliant, vibes were immaculate with the music and how the place was decorated, service was excellent and food came quickly etc. We had the jerk chicken and rice, curry chicken (special of the day), cheesy beef patty and mac n cheese - all excellent. ”
“ For the first time there. White wine Sangria, wonderful. Rum punch was great too. The music great like any Jamaica music. Nice tables and nice decorated area, makes you feel lively ! But then came the food. The food was ok, nothing to complain about it, except to me it has nothing to do with jamaican food. Firstly, there were no patties available at all, then the chiken was pink inside. Yes, jerk chiken pink inside. Now, I'm no jamaican man or jamaican chef by any means, but I have been to Jamaica and have eaten plenty jerk chicken. Don't get me wrong, im not expecting the same here, I am aware that this is Costa Adeje and not Runaway Bay, but I never had jerk chicken pink inside. The chips from frozen like almost everywhere, but at least a good portion. The garnish salad ? Almost i invisible. The jerk fish was, breaded cod with a jerk sauce. The food was good, jamaican? No. Jerk fish with cips €20.95 Jerk chicken with cips €13.50 White wine sangria € 14.00 Rum Puch glass €9.50 ”
“ I was quite excited to try some Jamaican food in Tenerife but I can understand why people are upset. 1st of all I enjoyed the food, it was very nice. But... I think you should do 2 versions and make better deals. What I mean by 2 versions is 1 being how it is and I would call it the English version. (Very bland for a Jamaican meal) The 2nd version would have some real spice and some scotch bonnet in it to fire it up. As for the value for money.. No .. it's quite expensive, especially when you can get a 3 course meal including steak for £12 1 plate here was £20. It could be alot better, should be alot cheaper then it could be more busy. ”
“ We visited this place again today and the food was bang on as usual Great atmosphere, good vibes and great value for money Would highly recommend visiting if you like Caribbean cuisine ???????? ”
“ Beautiful meal. Came with my husband and son all had jerk chicken rice and salad the chicken was cooked perfect and the barbecue jerk sauce was very tasty. ”
“ Delicious food. I had the Jerk Chicken with rice and salad with a dumpling on the side. Perfect portioning and the service was lightning fast. Many flies around our table and music blaring very loud but apart from that it was a quality meal. ”
