Franky G's Jamaican Grill

We love this place and I was so upset to see that they are temporarily closed. Hopefully they are back in 2024! Their wings are some of the tastiest around and their oxtail is melt in your mouth. The jerk chicken is pretty good but the highlight of any meal is definitely the rice and peas. All the meat fat soaks into them and they turn out so luscious it makes me cry for the calories. Chefs kiss!

Was told 15 to 20 minutes. Rude staff. Showed up 5 minutes early for pick up. Told them I knew I was early. Waited 55 minutes for food. Told me, we said 20 minutes .. which apparently meant an hour. Plus, the fish was not good at all.

Nasty.. chicken had good flavor but it was tough and hard to eat. Rice was very plain with no seasoning, cabbage was under cooked. Mac and cheese was extremely DRY with no flavor, only ate it because it cost extra to sub cabbage for mac. Over all it was a cute little spot but the food was subpar, I will not be coming back.Parking: Limited parking

I ordered Saturday 10/29/22. I wasn't happy with my order. I'm not writing a review to put anyone's business in a negative, and reviews are to make the business aware of deficits and make changes to better the product. The owners do not like constructive criticism. We ordered two large j chicken dinners, one with two orders of cabbage and no rice and one with rice and peas and cabbage. The rice didn't have any peas and it didn't taste like freshly cooked rice. The chicken didn't taste like freshly cooked chicken nd it was dry. There weren't any plantain(no explanation when picking up the order). Anyway, this was the second time we'd patronized this establishment and the first time was a little better. We live and learn and other people may have a better experience. Even walking inside there wasn't a smell of food cooking. I ALREADY know I can go somewhere else. I wish nothing but the best for this restaurant. As the owner responded to a review, this is her livelihood and her means, and reviews can do harm. I'm not trying to do harm. Just trying to bring insight to something that may need tweeking or the result of an off day.

This is not it... This is not Jamaican food. Rice and beans was mushy and not made with coconut milk as it should be and had no color as if some beans were added to mushy white rice at the end. We spent $40 on 2 large meals, j chicken and oxtail. The oxtail did not look like it was stewed, it was not hot, and was 4 pieces in a large meal, we didn 't even try it because it looked so unappealing. The large j chicken consisted of one leg quarter with like a j topping on it. There was only one girl working when we went there and you cannot see any of the food from the customer side of restaurant which should have made me double think ordering here. We live and learn, and I have learned this restaurant is not the move. The j pit in Ann Arbor is further to drive but is definitely traditional Jamaican cuisine (pricey, but traditional). I hate to have to leave a negative review, but I hope to save someone from making the same mistake I did.
