Xaymaca Restaurant

We went here for dinner last night. The food was the best I’ve ever had! The presentation was amazing! The staff are so friendly and the establishment itself is just warm, cozy and inviting! I highly recommend this place! We had the jerk Alfredo pasta, jerk spring rolls and the steamed snapper and everything was so good!!!

I was hesitant to eat here because of what I heard about the portion sizes. My wife and I decided to give it a shot after looking at the menu online. I ordered the coconut shrimp pasta and my wife had the lobster linguine. We also shared a six-piece serving of jerk chicken spring rolls. To wash it all down, we both had a tall glass of sorrel. I rated my meal (coconut shrimp pasta) a 10/10. It’s very saucey, so keep that in mind. The jerk chicken spring rolls get an 8/10. Very delicious with a nice sauce, but I feel the chicken can use a stronger kick. The sorrel for me gets a 10/10. My wife rated her lobster linguine a 9/10, spring rolls an 8/10 and the sorrel a 6/10 because she’s not a fan of strong ginger, which the drink had a lot of. She rated my meal (coconut shrimp pasta) an 8/10.

Food took about 25min for a simple jerk chicken. The rice and peas was the best part about the dish which should speak volumes. For a long wait like that the chicken was not even fresh. I asked for extra sauce on the dish and the cook said to charge me extra after my 25 min wait. Any other Jamaican place I go to they would be glad to put extra gravy with no charge. After I open up the order I was really disappointed. Spent 25 out of my 30min lunch break and not impressed at all. My side of macaroni was now a distasteful salad and NO GRAVY at all on the dish but came with a pathetic little container or gravy (picture attached) I should’ve posted a picture of the dish but I was way too hungry and didn’t have much time left on my break to eat. You are not missing anything. This place is a sorry excuse for a Jamaican restaurant. If you are reading this, Find another place

I ordered jerk chicken to go and added plantain, and the flavor wasn't bad, but unfortunately, they don't sell coleslaw. You can have your dinner either with green or macaroni salad. Customer service experience wasn't great. They have a bad attitude, and I had to wait for 20 minutes for my order to be ready.

I was feeling for some goat for my birthday lunch so I jumped on google for the top rated Jamaican food in Brampton. This was top rated! The atmosphere was inviting, and the reggae playing sent me to back in the days. The waitress was nice and patient while we decided. I ordered the two meat meal, goat and oxtail. They don't call me long belly for no reason! I loved the goat, it was perfect! Soft flavor and enough pieces. The oxtail was good but not compared to the goat. My hubby had the fried chicken and he ate all of his food. We will be going back there. I also like the fact that there is a take out section.

If you're looking for authentic Jamaican food with flare, then I highly recommend that you visit Xaymaca Restaurant. Deserving of 5+ rating, they have exceeded my expectations with customer service, restaurant ambiance and food. Food made and plated with love, my favourites from their menu include the grilled jerk salmon w/mango salsa and white rice. The salmon was cooked to perfection. Also loved the jerk chicken spring rolls, fried plantain and red pea soup as appetizers. My server Ashley was knowledgeable, attentive and very friendly. I'm looking forward to another visit and trying her dessert recommendations - rum cake!

This was my first time at this restaurant. Went here with my wife for a date. Upon arrival I was impressed by the overall vibe and atmosphere of the restaurant. Very elegant and chill. The service was amazing as my server was kind. The menu wasn't confusing and the food prices were great. We had some apps and ribs. All items were presented well and were very tasty. Would definitely recommend. Great place for a date or hanging out with friends. This is not your typical Jamaican restaurant. Definitely a cut above the rest.

Meals were absolutely tasty and perfectly balanced from the appetizers to the entrees. Popcorn fish was surprisingly GOOD and the fried chicken was one of the best I've had in a while. Portion size is very filling. Couldn't find a complaint. The server was pleasant and the service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back!
