Back A Yard

I'm having jerk chicken (comes dark) Yummy. A bit of spice (leave you lips tingling) such great savory flavor and very authentic. The staff will not baby you so if looking for TLC maybe go another place. The rice and beans are excellent and plantains sweet and fixed just right. Carmel crisp and delicious 😋

A top, quick spot for homestyle Caribbean cuisine. I definitely did not expect to find a place like this in this area of SJ but was so glad to be introduced by some friends. The space is themed just as you would imagine and it creates a feeling of home. It can accomodate a lot of groups but isn't the largest space. Nonetheless, ordering is easy (they have the great idea of separating the line from take out and eating in) and the wait was not long at all during a busy lunch rush. The yard bowl was just what I was looking for - a dish that wasn't too heavy but had a mix of different things like rice, greens, and your choice of protein. The portions were actually much larger than expected (especially for the generous pricing) and the flavors were on point.

The place serves large portions and for reasonable pricing. very nice owner. I recommend this place.
