Rock Steady Real Jamaican Restaurant

One of the best Jamaican Food experiences I've had. I love their Jerk chicken which is extremely spicy *photo not shown* however really tasty. Upon my visit here me and my wife brought a friend that lives down the street to join us. He wanted to get their goat curry, which prompted me to get the same. I saw that they had fried chicken on the menu, however decided to get the goat curry after asking the server what would be the better option. She told me that the goat curry was their most popular choice. It was amazingly delicious and I highly recommend ordering that dish if you love curry and goat meat. My wife ordered their Oxtail combination with rice, beans, cabbage, and a fried plantain. Most of their combination plates/meals come with the steamed cabbage medley with a side of rice & beans. She also ordered a rum & fruit punch drink and I got their mango juice drink. Place is clean, organized, friendly and accommodating service. The atmosphere is chill and enjoyed our visit here. They have a stage and outside bar area adjecent to the patio section and it seems like they have live Reggae bands. Would love to visit again when there is live performances. They are well worth 10 ?s. I will gladly give them a 5 !

This place definitely passes the vibe check and has the menu of an authentic Jamaican spot. The brown stewed whole snapper came in a good portion; the flavor was solid, the skin was tasty, and managed to stay crispy in the delicuous stew/juices it was resting in.. two thumbs up for that! The red beans and rice, cabbage, and plantains were decent, not bad, but nothing memorable. I'm guessing the meats are the major highlights here and the sides are an afterthought. Though I didn't try any, I'd be eager to taste their muffins and rum punch/other beverages that all looked intriguing. Rock Steady is worth your time if you're craving the flavors of Jamaica.

As a Jamaican it’s always risky finding a good Jamaican food spot but this was great. I enjoyed my food and the sorrel. Actually I’d come back for the sorrel every day if I would. Lol but I got the oxtail with rice and peas. I finished my plate before leaving so that says something because I never finish food.

We had oxtails, rice and peas, cabbage and fried plantain. Everything was very very good! We eat here every time we visit San Diego. Owners are great people with great customer service. Best authentic Jamaican food we ever had. Will certainly return and would definitely recommend. Go early!!!!!They sell out of oxtails quickly. Their jerk chicken is excellent as well. You will not be disappointed unless you wait until late to go because they do sell out! The amount of food you get per entree is enough for 2 people to share but this food is so good, you will want your own! Get your own!!!

In the first the host there was a bit not friendly then she changed to be amazing. And the chef came over and he explained more about the food.. my q is it is halal or not. We don't know they don't know. The food was perfectly well don't the rice the plantine the Sause all together it was delicious ..

Friendly staff best Jamaican food in San Diego Pattie’s are amazing atmosphere ok, parking? Sucks though. They always have parties “cool stuff”

The OX tail were amazing. Nice vibe to this place. Jerk chicken and slow stewed chicken was really good as well.

I was in San Diego on vacation and wanted to get some Jamaican food, found this place searching google maps, drive down there and I must say the food was excellent, my wife who is a great cook, gave her approval and she is very hard to please
