🇯🇲 UPDATE 🇯🇲

Hi everyone! We're currently looking for a new location heading into 2023, as we've outgrown our space along the Harbor Walk. Looking for leads in Belfast as well as Portland as we look to expand. Please send any leads our way!!!

📢 ANNOUNCEMENT 📢

Hi all! Unfortunately, we will be wrapping up the season for the Jamaican Grille.

I’ve been out of the country for the birth of my daughter and have been attempting to manage the restaurant remotely. This obviously comes with several challenges, and though my staff has successfully made it through August without a helm, September came with additional challenges that would have required me to be more hands-on. So, though I’d like to stay open later into the year, today is our last day open of 2022.

We’re still open until 8PM tonight. Thank you to everyone who has supported us, and look forward to seeing you again next year.

Money-taker needed at the Jamaican Grille takeout window along the Belfast Harborwalk. What's a money-taker? Someone who takes money and hands back delicious food with delicious sauces. Also, you get a free t-shirt to wear.

This week’s special is a true Jamaican classic - braised oxtail with butter beans. Similar to a stew, it is cooked low and slow for hours until the meat just melts in your mouth. 🤤

Not the most Instagram worthy dish (even we can admit that! haha) but what it lacks in looks, it makes up with flavor. 👊🏽

Come down and try the real thing! If you don’t know you need to get to know! FR FR 😃🇯🇲🙌🏽

Oxtail isn’t easy to source so big thanks to the awesome people at J & J Jamaican Grocery and Gift Shop in Damariscotta, ME.

08/14/2021

It’s going to be another warm day today!☀️
We now stock some ice cold, thirst quenching Jamaican drinks: Ting, Tropical Rhythm juices and frozen on-site 🥥 Coconut Water! Thanks to Peter and Keleen at J & J Jamaican Grocery and Gift Shop!! A must stop in downtown Damariscotta, ME for all your Jamaican grocery needs!🇯🇲
