Fodor's "Many call this open-air jerk eatery the best in Jamaica, but the Scotchies Too branch in Ocho Rios certainly makes it a tough call." Full review

"The extremely popular jerk joint, made famous in Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, has come to conquer the capital, and very successfully, too."
Travel + Leisure "Situated in Montego Bay, this casual outdoor eatery is widely considered the best place on the island for authentic jerk pork and chicken." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"A bit out of the way, but worth the effort if you’re after some excellent jerk cooking; pork, chicken, fish and seafood are served with festival, breadfruit, yam or sweet potato."
Frommer's "Scotchie’s serves what is arguably the best jerk chicken on the island...just a collection of tin-roofed structures around a few palapa-shaded tables by the side of the road." Full review

"It’s no small tribute to 3 Dives that its jerk overshadows its reputation for lengthy waits (sometimes over an hour)."
Travel + Leisure "Previously featured on The Amazing Race, the 3 Dives jerk stand is named for the surrounding limestone cliffs, which provide great diving spots as well as stunning views of the sea." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This is an eternally popular place in a tree-filled garden on the cliffs, with a nightly bonfire creating some atmosphere."
Rough Guide Star
"Popular, inexpensive jerk centre in a cliffside garden, with particularly good lobster and a nightly bonfire."
Fodor's "It's best known for its jerk...but it also serves traditional Jamaican dishes like curried goat, brown-stew chicken, curried or steamed conch, and, in season, grilled lobsters." Full review
