“ First-Time Jamaican Food UNFORGETTABLE Tried Jamaican food for the first time today, and Go See TYCE BBQ, LLC blew me away! Just look at this plate: tender jerk chicken loaded with flavor, savory rice and beans, fresh mixed veggies, and sweet, perfectly caramelized plantains. Every bite was The flavor, the portions, the hospitality — 10/10. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be back! #JamaicanFood #TYCEBBQ #SupportLocal #FoodieFinds #JerkChickenJoy ”
“ We ate incredible food! The jerk pork had an amazing sweetness due to the smoker in the back, and the curry chicken was full of flavor, aromatics, and a perfect amount of sweetness. We can tell they care about their food because of how delightfully balanced everything tasted. Nothing was too spicy, too sweet, or too salty, and everything had deep flavor. They actually soaked the rum cake in rum for 1 whole year before baking it off, and it is pure decadence. I couldn't have enjoyed it more. Pro tip: order the Sorrel drink. She knows how to make it, and it is impossibly delicious. As someone that works in beverage, I can't believe how incredibly refreshing it was. It had lovely notes of warm baking spices and an almost apple-like flavor to it. So good! We are going to come back, hopefully soon! ”
“ Absolutely delicious! I can't wait to go back! I had the curry chicken, my husband had the jerk chicken. They serve big portions, and everything was fresh and tasted as good as it looked! We immediately felt welcomed by the owner and chef! ”
“ My husband and I always cook at home, and I usually hate getting takeout—but we were in a bind last night while on vacation and had no choice. I’m so glad we did, because this place was incredible. The food was so good I honestly almost cried. It was beautifully made, absolutely delicious, and my whole family loved every bite. ”
“ This is the first time stopping here and it was amazing. A lovely woman thanked us all for patience as there was a line. She took the time to prosy point out and explain why each offering was. It smelled delicious in there and the music was bumpin’. I had ribs that were perfectly smoked, and the meat fell off the bone. This was accompanied by some rice and beans, cornbread, plantains, and a vegetable mix. I can’t remember exactly what she called it. I’ll certainly return. It was clean inside. ”
“ I don’t usually bother to write reviews but this deserves an extraordinary one. We had enjoyed excellent Jamaican food decades ago in Connecticut but none since moving to Maine. So after reading a rave review in a Portland newspaper we headed straight there and ordered for takeout a wide variety of patties, curry, jerk, and sides. Everything was terrific, the best we’d ever had and the chef/owner Tyce Reid delightful to chat with. We will be regulars without a doubt. Bravo! ”
“ First time visiting and had the pleasure of meeting Tyce. She is an absolute delight! And the food was excellent. So happy my friend and I finally stopped in! ”
“ Turn your car in this direction...and Go See Tyce! Great food, great flavor and great service. Love the Jerk Pork, Brisket, and Plantains. They have everything from beef patties to yams and drinks. So delicious. Please try if you haven’t already. Seriously. ”
