Why it earns the seal: Island cooking with a real give back to schools in western Jamaica.

The rundown

A retro dancehall dream in the East Village, all checkered floors, bright color and walls of classic reggae album covers. Chef Brittney Williams steers a menu that runs from the world famous jerk chicken and Middle Quarters style pepper shrimp to jerk corn dusted with toasted coconut, backed by a deep rum cocktail list. The room stays open until three in the morning on weekends, and a share of profits supports school programs in western Jamaica.
