Drift876 Jamaican Cuisine and Bar

When they say fall off the bone oxtail they are notttt kidding. The jerk chicken spring rolls were so good too. My boyfriend & I have been hopping around the boroughs trying different spots for oxtail and this was the best yet. So delicious and great service. Chef Shawn was the best & absolutely killed it

I gotta give it to them. That Oxtail golden egg roll is hitting and delicious! Employees are always welcome and friendly. This is truly authentic Jamaican food with plenty of favor.

Updated experience Christmas 2025; as my experience with this restaurant previously was positive, I decided to order a half pan of jerk pork and stewed oxtails to complement Christmas dinner, again I was not disappointed! Both dishes were an immediate hit with my family! The jerk pork was not overwhelmingly spicy so it didn’t overpower the flavor of the pork. It was well seasoned and well cooked. At the end of dinner, both pans of meats were empty. The oxtails were succulent and almost seemed to melt as it was being eaten. I cannot find a single negative thing to say, it was well worth the price in this economy! I will definitely use the catering menu again! Previous review below: (A-few months ago) I was visiting a friend out on Staten Island, and we decided to grab lunch at this Jamai

Honestly the food is decent FOR STATEN ISLAND…there aren’t many carribean food restaurants out here…so with THAT being KNOWN …this food should be fire!!! I should feel like I got quality quantity and freshness like I would if I was in Brooklyn. I ordered a beef patty spicy and spicy shrimp patty BOTH dried out…they leave them in the heater tooo long and then now the dough is over cooked and inside is dry. I also ordered jerk chicken meal and curry goat meal …..rice and peas no flavor and dry, cabbage very mild flavor portion was like a tablespoon, curry goat they got RIGHT!!! Tender flavorful and right amount of spice and gravy..a few bones but if u really eat goat u know. The jerk chicken cooked but not tender, some pieces was dried out and the jerk sauce was just poured over it it wasn’t

I really enjoyed the food. We had Ackee and salt fish, oxtails, and jerk chicken and oxtail egg roll. It was all delicious. I didn’t take photos of everything. 4 of us ate.
