Delicious First Taste of Jamaican Food!
I'm so glad I found this spot! This was my first time trying Jamaican food, and it will definitely not be the last time. The gentleman who took my order was nice and friendly.
I ordered the chicken curry, which came with rice and a cabbage salad. Everything tasted like homemade; it was delicious, and the portions were good too.

Best Jamaican Food Ever!
I've been sleeping on this food truck, having seen it from time to time on my drives and thought about checking it out. My sister ended up buying brown rice with the curry chicken, and I have to say, as of right now, this will be the only place I'll get Jamaican Food. Whoever the owner is, thank you for blessing our streets with your delicious food and spices.

Authentic Jamaican Gem in Orlando!
From the first bite, I was transported straight to the heart of Jamaica. The food was absolutely spectacular! Each dish burst with authentic flavors, showcasing the rich culinary heritage of the island.
The service was second to none; the staff treated us like family, ensuring every need was met with warmth and professionalism. The owners are truly world-class, pouring passion and dedication into every aspect of the dining experience. Paula’s Jamaican Black Cake is moist, rich, and infused with the perfect amount of rum, it's hands down the best I've tasted—from Orlando all the way to Kingston!
If you're seeking an authentic Jamaican dining experience that delights the palate and warms the soul, look no further. A true treasure in Orlando!

Truly Amazing Food!
I've been here a few times, and the food is truly amazing. As a very picky eater, I can attest that the Mac and cheese, the veggies, and the meats are just delicious. They also have a spicy sauce that is sooooooo good.
I love this place!

Delicious Oxtail and Mac n Cheese!
My experience at this truck was centered around a single, outstanding meal. I had the oxtail, which was delicious, and the Mac n Cheese, which I found to be the best I've tasted so far across all the places I've reviewed. My 5-star rating is based solely on this one dish.
I haven't tried anything else on the menu. You can watch my dining experience on YouTube @EverydayLife4u.

Paula's Food Truck: Delicious and Creamy!
This was my second visit to Paula's food truck, and it was just as delightful as the first. I thoroughly enjoyed both the jerk chicken and jerk pork; they were incredibly delicious. The mac and cheese was exceptionally creamy and flavorful.
I'm already looking forward to my next experience here.

Fantastic Jamaican Eats!
My experience with Paula's Jamaican Cuisine food truck was fantastic. I tried the Jamaican Beef Patty for the first time and it was great. Even better was the Jerk Pork, which was also fantastic.
We encountered this food truck at a food truck event at Waterford Lakes Community Center.

Disappointing App Order Experience
My experience at this restaurant was largely disappointing due to an issue with an app order. While the food itself was okay, described as typical curry chicken, it wasn't particularly spectacular or memorable. I did encounter tiny bone shards in the gravy, but as someone accustomed to this type of cuisine, I was able to manage.
The lady serving was pleasant, which was a positive note. However, the main issue arose from ordering through the 'good to go' app, which promised a value of $25 with the order. Instead, I received only a single menu item, a plate of curry chicken valued at $15 on their menu.
I'm unsure if the portion size was standard, as it seemed smaller than other photos, with only 5 pieces of chicken and the rest being rice and vegetables. The app's description was misleading, implying more than one menu item would be included. Given I drove an hour round trip for pickup, this was definitely not worth it.
Although I did receive a refund, I did not receive what was advertised. Had I known, I would have chosen a closer restaurant. Consequently, I will not be returning.
I suggest the restaurant adhere to the app's guidelines to ensure ethical business practices and customer satisfaction, fostering potential repeat business.

Small portions, spoiled rice
I went there today to get some food. My experience was disappointing due to the portion size, which was really small. The rice also had a bad smell; you could tell that it was spoiled.
Smh. They need to do better.
