I visited Jamaica Mi Hungry around 5:30 p.m., only to find they had already run out of food—strike one. I ordered jerk chicken, but it didn’t taste like jerk chicken at all; it actually tasted more like pulled pork—strike two. The rice and peas were questionable; the rice was white instead of the traditional brown, using what seemed like the cheapest rice possible—strike three. Honestly, you should reconsider using "Jamaican" in your name because you are a disappointment to authentic Jamaican cuisine.
The food is good, but their slow speed of serving really deters me from going. Whether it’s dine in, take out, or order ahead for pick up. Every time it’s slow as hell. What surprises me is even for pick up, I’d have to wait in line and wait for this guy to finish serving food to other dine in customers or other take out customers and then eventually he would slowly turn to me and ask: what’s your order? The servers in this place really remind me of the sloth (Flash) in Zootopia.
The Jamaican food scene in Massachusetts often falls short, but Jamaica Mi Hungry stands out. As someone with Cuban and Jamaican roots from Florida, I found their jerk chicken and service outstanding. Their menu offers authentic flavors that I truly enjoyed. I will definitely be returning. Unfortunately, my experience at Flames was not as positive.
Good deal good at $15! I got the jerk chicken with plantains and brussel sprouts. The jerk chicken and the plantains were absolutely phenomenal and I got two meals out of it. The brussel sprouts were meh, I’d suggest the curry vegetables instead!

I got the oxtails with sides of dill slaw and curry veggie. The oxtails were unfortunately really tough and chewy. The dill slaw was okay and the curry veggies were good. Very meh Jamaican food. The staff were very friendly and helpful though!
The Jamaican food in the mess hall is quite disappointing. However, as someone from Florida with both Cuban and Jamaican roots, I have to say that the jerk chicken and service here are truly excellent. I'll definitely be returning!
Get the curry vegetable stew, I was so sad when I finished it because it was gone. The brussels sprouts and plantains are also great. The dough on the patties was a little dense, but the combo meal was fantastic
The restaurant is very clean and offers authentic Jamaican cuisine. While the menu isn't extensive, the dishes they do offer are all excellent.
