• Caribbean • West Baltimore

Winner of the Open Table diner's choice award in 2025, Jerk at Nite, founded by Howard University students, in 2014, began as a solution to the lack of late-night food options at Howard University. After seeing peers struggle with unhealthy fast food, a small group of students, raised in a Jamaican household, started delivering flavorful jerk chicken and other Jamaican dishes from their dorm room. What began as a small campus venture evolved into a food truck business in 2015, and later, a brick-and-mortar restaurant. The menu features healthy fusion dishes, such as pimento wood smoked Jerk chicken, Oxtail, and Jammin’ salmon, free of MSG and preservatives. Now with multiple locations in D.C., Detroit and Baltimore, Jerk at Nite continues to grow and serves the community with a focus on quality and flavor. Located right across the street from Baltimore's iconic Hippodrome Theatre, this location includes an upscale experience of Jamaica. Enjoy the savory taste of our story on a plate!

    Ampersea was a lovely experience. The hosts were welcoming and we were seated promptly. The food was delicious and came out at a good pace. The drinks were lovely also. We did feel a bit rushed with our server at times, but then when she took our payment, she was gone for what seemed like a very long time. Overall we enjoyed our meal and would return.

    Excellent service here from everyone. Great steak; delicious cocktails and wine. Tried everything from the appetizers to dessert. Overall a great experience. No complaints. The food value is not quite worth the cost, imo, but you’re paying for more than that
