Jerk Machine - Fort Lauderdale

I haven't had the opportunity to cook authentic Jamaican food since going vegan, so during my recent trip to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, I knew I had to seek out a place that offered it. The staff was friendly, and even though there were some communication challenges due to a language barrier and a plastic protective screen, they helped me confirm that the jerk sauce was vegan. They prepared a delicious vegan bowl for me with coconut beans and rice, cauliflower, soy beef, and, of course, a side of sticky plantains. I'm so glad I found this little gem! The staff also mentioned that they offer a complete plant-based option with chickpeas, which is definitely worth checking out.

The food is incredible and incredibly affordable! This is the best vegan Jamaican cuisine I’ve ever tasted!

The food was amazing and definitely worth trying. However, the staff appeared unmotivated and not very attentive. Despite that, it's still worth a visit!

The food tasted stale, and the meat was tough! Both the pork and chicken were difficult to chew and nearly inedible. The rice wasn't great either; it was overly watery.

Incredible! It exceeded all my expectations. The curry chicken was absolutely amazing, and the rice and steamed cabbage were delightful. The jerk chicken was the perfect finishing touch! This was my first visit to Fort Lauderdale, and now I’m seriously considering moving here.
