    Legitimately the best chicken I can remember having in recent times. Unload on the jerk sauce (it's not devastatingly spicy, as she may warn you). Then eat it on the hood of your car.

    Great jerk chicken! I was impressed as few places can cook fried chicken that is neither dry nor tough but the chicken here is really good! Friendly staff & generous portions!

    My favorite jerk chicken spot on Flatbush. The festival is a fried bread, can be too heavy at some places but perfect here. Close to the park for a picnic lunch.

    Very tasty jerk chicken. Dont be afraid of the spicy sauce, it's delicious and not too spicy. Take-away and cash only.

    the only place I buy jerk chicken w/ festival!Highly recommend! Long lines in a small space, especially on the weekends, BUT when you taste the chicken, you’ll wait hours for it.

    Peppa's turns out some of the city's best jerk chicken. The secrets of the spice rub Gavin Hussey uses are at least partly revealed, amid much chopping and sizzling: Read more

    Rice and peas great also. Fluffy rice without an overwhelming amount of peas. Be prepared for a wait if u go late night on wknds. That's where alot of people go after the the club.but worth the wait!

    Don't waste your time with sides - get a full plate of jerk chicken. It can feed 2 people. The oxtail dinner is another favorite. Put a lot of jerk sauce in your plate; you know everyone's doing it.

    The best jerk chicken. And I've had a lot of jerk chicken from alot of restaurants! Add the jerk sauce if u like extra spice or the BBQ sauce if u dont. Finger lickin good either way☆☆☆☆☆

    Whenever I get a jones for some great jerk chicken, I head to Peppa's. Grab some festivals or make it a meal with some rice and peas. Don't fear the lines. Trust me, it's worth it.

    The best jerk chicken in NYC imo, portions are massive, and he sure to dump some jerk sauce into your plate before they close the lid

    Chicken was seasoned well but it was mostly bones. Very misleading. People should go for a late night craving but there are other places out there.

    It's pretty simple: get the jerk chicken. If you're with a group, also get some oxtail and goat to share.

    Get the festival bread. It's like a donut breadstick that pairs perfectly with the jerk sauce.
