Your in-laws decide to surprise you with a visit, and since your apartment is currently, shall we say, 'a bit unprepared' for houseguests, you sagely suggest a lunch date instead.

More unusual items such as curry-infused veggie patties, oxtail stew and escovitched fresh fish round out the menu, ensuring a unique meal for all. While many hold their Cool Runnings Punch in high regard, the Jerk Hut's true liquid claim to fame is their extensive Mojito bar. The freshest of mint, pure cane sugar and an assortment of price-level staggered rum brands have helped the Grill maintain their crown as one of the area's 'go-to' spots for the refreshing libation, and you'll be hard-pressed to argue.
