Jamaica Jamaica is Stepping Up San Antonio’s Brunch Game

Look beyond that basic taco-and-mimosa brunch, because Chef Angello and Dee Gordon, the husband-and-wife team at Jamaica Jamaica, are blessing us with a new Sunday brunch menu, starting May 26.

Jamaica Jamaica’s menu — inspired by Angello’s Jamaican roots and Dee’s Soul food background — offers daily lunch and dinner options, with brunch to fall on the second and fourth Sunday each month. Patrons can choose from a selection of Caribbean cocktails —  including hibiscus mint mimosas and mango or lavender mojitos— while live jazz plays in-house.

“San Antonio doesn’t offer a wide variety of ethnic food yet, so our main focus is just to make some delicious Jamaican comfort food that’s authentic and something everyone can enjoy,” Dee Gordon said in a press release.

The local restaurant has garnered a loyal following since opening in 2011, but Jamaica Jamaica’s expanded brunch menu is expected to reach new customers.

So many restaurants, so little time. Find out the latest San Antonio dining news with our Flavor Friday Newsletter.
