Minto's Jamaican Restaurant & Bar

Worthwhile

This is the most authentic Jamaican restaurant in Oakland.

Perfect everything..Not sure if they closed down or if it was just the week that I went twice and they were closed..Music they play is all up to date real Jamaican music not urban radio reggae America...Food good..They may need a better location because people may not know they exist..Up!!

Customer service is awesome. Definitely got to try the Curry goat that melts in your mouth and pumpkin rice

This was a spicy, hot authentic curry goat, falling off the bones into an incredible viscous liquor, thick of yam, dachine, and green sweet potato. Cumin and turmeric in the nose, scotch bonnet peppers, and thyme, so much thyme! To polish it off? Piping hot, sweet fried plantain! I declare, there is nothing like the caramelized crust on deep fried ripe plantains. Nothing on the face of the earth equals that crust. Nothing.
