Central Mass Food Reviews: Large jerk chicken plate, with rice and peas, and extra gravy.The rice and peas were good, nothing fancy, however the extra gravy from the jerk chicken really helped it out. The hot cabbage and carrots were surprisingly tasty as well (gravy on them too). The jerk chicken was very good! Perfect amount of spice, and the chicken was tender and falling off the bone.A ton of food for $12, and the woman who took the order and packaged it up was very nice.

Adriann Anderson: Delicious! We placed an order 45 minutes from closing time because we arrived in town later than expected. We were worried that the food would be the last of the end of the night stuff. It wasn't! The food was delicious! We ordered the large oxtail, & 2 medium jerk chicken. Lawd hammercy! Food was fresh, piping hot, and so so good. That jerk is spicy baby, so be careful! Coco bread was good for sopping up juices, but could have been a little softer. Sorrell, ugh, refreshing, sweet, & ginger spicy! If we are ever in town again, this will definitely get me a 2nd time around. I really wanted the mac & cheese, but the sold out. 😫 Next time....Parking: Parking lot

Chelcie Roan: I found this place by an accident while visiting the Cookies Dispensary next door. The smell of curry and jerk flavors hit me as soon as I got out of the car. My group ordered the fish soup, oxtail , and jerk chicken meals. All came packed to the brim with THREE whole sides, and tasted absolutely delicious!! I would highly recommend trying out their beef patties as well- they have an awesome variety of meat and veggie options. Do yourself a favor and go eat at Aretha’s Kitchen!

Azaad Hamid: Great food. Great people. Loved it

Erasmo Jimenez: Best oxtail I hade in my life

Daniel Afriyie: Great food, very clean, and friendly people. Loved their oxtail!!!

Nancy Nimbs: This was once our favorite spot when we are in Worcester. Matter fact we would bring all our friends and family with us. The lady that owns the place, not sure if she still does was amazing but now the place has terribly gone downhill. The food looked like it was cooked days ago, the cabbage looked like it was boiled, no flavor on anything. The plantains we could not even bite on them they were so tough. We had oxtail and goat curry, it was little sauce and bones really. There was a customer at the store complaining about the same thing but instead of helping her they let the situation escalate to where now the customer was now really upset and causing a scene. It was really hard to seat and enjoy our meal in this atmosphere. The server had the manager on the phone and handed it to her. He insisted that she waits at the store but when he got there was very rude to her and still didn’t resolve the situation.I was soo excited to bring a friend who was visiting and this was a disaster. My husband warned me because he’d already noticed their quality going down but I wanted to prove him wrong, I guess not. am sure we ain’t coming back again.The server was nice but didn’t seem to have the authority to fully resolve customer complaints. The server genuinely wanted to help but his hands were tied. My husband is in the industry and was really impressed by how the server handled himself.Anyway we wish them the best though!!

SASHA M: OMG the food was great, decided to try this spot at last minute and I’m glad I did. The food is 100% authentic.

Gussie Quinton: I love this restaurant!!! I love the patty and the curry goat!!! The salt fish and butter beans w/fried dumplings is my favorite.Absolutely delicious. Five stars to the chef!!!! Officially a life long customer 🤗 finally a great restaurant in Worcester 😊

Erin Faith Page: The Pina Colada was the STAR of this meal, it is fresh and homemade (seriously get it!). The oxtails were under cooked, but the flavor was great. The rice was under seasoned and the meal only came with two THIN slices of plantains. The shrimp were also under seasoned, which is strange (I don't know that I have ever had under seasoned Jamaican food). BUT, again, I would go back just for that delicious Pina colada.

Thoughtful LIfecoach: Stop by to get food. First it smell nasty and taste like water. No customer service whatever. She seems upset . I was dying for some Jamaican food spend 16$ for nasty food. This is what the food looks like I had to trash it and go somewhere else

Justina George: Great restaurant dined in very cozy, family oriented. Very large menu everything was on hand. Food was delicious, will go back

Nati Rosado: 2 and half hour wait for food. Plantains we’re hard.

Lorenzo Marston: I ordered the oxtail on DoorDash and let me tell you it was amazing perfectly portioned a lot of good meat and the rice was phenomenal. I highly recommend getting that plate or the Jerk Chicken plate they are both amazing!

They also have curry goat and a oxtail dish. The snapper dish I want to try but they are usually out when I go. They also have meatpies and drinks. I highly recommend you try them out
