Reviews For Anthony's Jamaican Restaurant

Amazing people, amazing food honestly! They always know my order whenever I come in. I recommend the jerk chicken with rice and peas (add that extra oxtail gravy!) just the perfect amount of spiciness. I love the new hair cut too girl, new year new you! Always a great experience -Tracy from Sally Beauty Supply

Anthony's Jamaican Restaurant is a gem! The staff are always friendly and accommodating from the start. I typically order meals for 2-4 people, and the portions are generous, with an authentic taste that never disappoints. They also seem to have the most popular dishes available even towards the end of the day, which is a rarity for many restaurants. Recently, I had the chance to try their catering services. On short notice, they prepared a delicious breakfast for me and a small family gathering. The food was fantastic, very affordable, and everyone ate well and complimented the meal. As for the atmosphere, I can't comment too much since I usually grab and go, but the space is always clean, the food is properly covered, and the staff are professional and personable. While there are a few tables and chairs, it feels more like a storefront setup than a sit-down restaurant. Highly recommend for authentic Jamaican food, whether you're dining solo, feeding a group, or catering an event!

Hands down best in Manchester. Not only is the food great but the team really cares about the customers. And....though the wait can be long, cause the line is out the door, the music will keep you company antil it's your turn

Food was so so so good. Staff was very patient and friendly and helped me decide what to get. Pepper steak and jerk chicken with rice was delicious, flavorful and tender, and it was very quick. And i got 2 meals out of it. Well worth it. Can't wait to go back honestly to try more like the curry shrimp.

I recently moved to the area and was so happy to see there was a Jamaican restaurant nearby! I got stew chicken and is was delicious! I got a medium and have enough for another meal. My son got a large pepper steak and he ate all of it! The beef patties were also delicious. Everything was spiced perfectly! The service was friendly and excellent. I will be returning! I can’t wait to try their other dishes!
