↳replying to u/codename_kd: You won’t find any great Jamaican near Times Square. Closest bet is going up to Harlem and checking out King Barka (135th) known for its bang for buck food. For a patty a few blocks away you can go to One Stop Patty Shop(145th).
If you want the ‘best’ jamaican food you can find you’d have to venture to brooklyn or the bronx where the jamaican communities are. not sure how willing you are to do this.
“One Stop Patty Shop is so good but will randomly close in the middle of the day.”
