Authentic, Scratch-Made Jamaican Cuisine in the Heart of the City
Jamaica House Restaurant has become a staple in the Downtown Richmond dining scene. Since 1994, we’ve been serving up delicious, authentic, and affordable Jamaican cuisine in a casual, relaxed environment in the heart of VCU. Our new location, just down the street in the Arts District, is a bright, fun, new take on the Jamaica House you know and love with old favorites and new menu offerings alike.

We hold 97 venues in Richmond, VA and could score 8 of them. This one is not among them, so it has no position — not a low one.
There is no score breakdown to show: nothing we read about this venue earned points in any of the four categories, so a bar chart of zeroes would look like a verdict on the kitchen rather than on what it publishes. What we did read is below.
v1.7.4 0.0/100 = sourcing 0.0/50 (named-farm 0 distinct, named-region 0 distinct, attribute 1 distinct [class=graded-spec x0.00], buzzword 0 distinct) + farm partners 0.0/20 (none scored) + registry 0.0/12 (none listed) + press 0.0/18 (capped at 35% of the 0.0-point evidence base).
Buzzwords only. This venue uses sourcing language ("farm-fresh", "locally sourced") but names no farms, regions, or verifiable attributes.
