Freedom Fighters Ital Shack

The best place of all time. I wish I could go there every day. the staff is super friendly and the food has the best quality. already missing

Ital is NOT short for Italian! It is a Jamaican style of eating and usually pure vegetarian at the least..Ital Shak is vegan. We are here from the US and felt like we were visiting a friend...so don't hesitate to drop in. This simple place is on the side of the road. Don't be hesitant to go on in! Run by a family and they are very very welcoming! Food is made daily and is simple and easy to choose a meal. THERE'S ONLY ONE! Comes with a stew and side vegetables. Plus a soup and fresh fruit drinks are available..Two can eat a great meal and drink for about 20$ NO FRILLS...just great food! If that's what you like this is the place for you ! We would have eaten here every day had we not already stocked up on ingredients to cook where we were staying at the local market. GO AND ENJOY Updated from previous review on 2020-10-18

I tried everything on the menu and everything was fresh and delicious! Must try… The owner and stuff were great also! Updated from previous review on 2021-09-12

Love the food here! Everything is fresh, organic veggies from their own garden and no sugar added. The most important taste outta delicious! Very big portions compare to European ones.

There is exactly one dish per day. On a Monday, we got brown rice with beets, lentil sauce, cauliflower wings with mango BBQ sauce, fried plantains and a side salad. The only choice was between a regular and a small portion. I highly recommend you go with regular, as the portions are tiny. See my picture for what $12 bought us. Everything was fresh and well-seasoned. Some salad leaves were bitter, but I guess that happens with natural, non-industrial products. With very few tourists and no cruises on the island due to covid, the opening hours seem to have been shortened and randomized. We found the restaurant closed both Saturday and Sunday, despite the sign promising otherwise.
