Joe Campbell Review of Jerk. Modern Jamaican Grill

I think this place would be a lot more popular if located at Halsted and Milwaukee. Instead it's at Halsted and Chicago, almost no foot traffic there.
If you are looking for some spicy jerked chicken, this is the spot. I have tried the pork and chicken, some pieces of the chicken quarter was a bit dry which was surprising for a leg piece to come out dry. Pork was excellent. Three different sauces on the side that range in heat, Very Spicy Jerk to mildly spicy BBQ. The jerk mac and cheese is some of the best mac and cheese in the city. I think this restaurant might become a new favorite of mine on GrubHub.
Corn, bacon side were good as well. Although the bacon was served rather cold. Meal is medium to low priced for Chicago. I would give a total of 3.5 stars.
