JERK CHICKEN Enchiladas = :)

Really close to the beach, so you get that nice breeze. The menu and drinks are unique and tasteful. My all time favorite is jerk chicken enchiladas. This is great place to take a date to eat after a nice walk in the beach.

Cha Cha Chicken Restaurant Review

Cha Cha Chicken dishes out Caribbean cuisine in a casual al fresco setting with thatched huts and brightly painted tables and chairs. The signature chicken dish is served with Jamaican jerk sauce and sides like dirty rice and black beans, red cabbage slaw and fried plantains. Other options include wraps, chicken gumbo, spicy black pepper shrimp and grilled salmon with mango-pineapple jerk...

"Spicy" Caribbean staples like jerk chicken are accompanied by "amazing fruit juices" at this "funky" open-air "shack" in Santa Monica that "looks like an island-style cabana with mismatched tables and chairs" and "vibrant, colorful" decor; it's counter service only, but food arrives "quickly" and BYO abets the "bang-for-the-buck" prices.

Love their spinach quesadillas and all their fresh juices (watermelon, guava, mango). Feels like being on vacation.

¿Qué bolá, man? Park your preserved Pontiac by this countryside counter for low-key, delicious tropical treats from Cuba and Ja-Mek-Ya. Rootsy lean-to for kicked-back easy times. Peter Tosh and Burning Spear play overhead. Chicken and pork, lightly sauced or jerked, with sides of plantains and Moors and Christians rice. BYOB or just have a Baby Cham. A juicy cubano mulato sandwich is the best bet.

Where Caribbean cuisine does a spicy tango with diners' taste buds.

In Short
With banana trees, painted oil drums and tall sugarcane fences, this eatery is a splash of color amid the hulking hotels that line Ocean Avenue. Chatty couples and laid-back...
