About this place
Spiced meats sizzling right off the grill set the dynamic tone for the Jamaican cooking at WHAT A NICE KITCHEN. The signature jerk chicken is thoroughly marinated in cumin and an aromatic blend of spices, emerging tender with a distinct smoky char. It comes served alongside fragrant jasmine rice cooked with beans, pairing naturally with the punch of the seasoning.
The menu also features jerk pork, oxtail stew, and vindaloo curry, alongside combination platters that serve both chicken and pork, plus over-rice options packaged for takeout. For drinks, Jamaica's classic Red Stripe beer and highballs make easygoing companions to the meal, while dessert options like black sesame affogato and apple doughnuts offer a pleasant finish or sweet afternoon break.
Laid out in the style of an American diner, the spacious interior houses a pool table where mellow music sets the mood for dining and drinks. In addition to indoor seating, an outdoor terrace welcomes dogs, complemented by a dedicated pet menu featuring items like chicken breast rolls with vegetables. Suited to daytime lunch as well as evening bar stops on Friday and Saturday nights, the restaurant carries an easygoing, distinctive character.
