Restaurant Week is the most celebrated week for restaurants in Jamaica, as over 75 restaurants will be participating in the 12th staging of the Gleaner sponsored event. For a little over a week, restaurants island-wide will have specials on selected dishes ranging from Morning Bites to Epicurean and a new category for Caterers. 
 
All restaurants will have specials, but some will still treat your wallets better than others. Here are 10 reasonably priced restaurants that are great for the pocket but still carry the #RW16 vibes.
 

Whether it’s a great after work or weekend chill spot you seek, Jojo’s possesses the humble, laid back ambiance that will make it your regular hang out spot. Another great advantage is the cost effective meals and drinks offered. You’re sure to enjoy an evening of conversation and laughter then depart feeling satisfied with the bill.


 

Jamaicans love their Chinese/Japanese food.If you’re thinking of a perfect date-night with this theme in mind, then you’ve got a great chance of striking gold at Northside Kitchen.

You’ll find that its welcoming ambiance and quality service could make you cut back on the delivery option and make the trip. It gets better – Pizza Hut–Dine In will have specials on the already reasonable prices during #RW16.


 

Restaurant Week is the perfect time to try dishes outside of your everyday options. If you haven’t tried Mexican before, Chilitos Jamexican Restaurant is the place!

  • Toss & Roll
    There aren’t as many healthy salads and natural juice bars available so it’s great to have Toss & Roll on the list for #RW16.
