Why Travelers Love Erica's Hideaway
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Erica’s Hideaway is a MUST visit on your next trip to Negril, Jamaica! The food is so authentic it reminds me of my grandma’s cooking. Vivianne and her Demers are amazing hosts and create such an amazing atmosphere. The tour of the garden is so cool and just shows how fresh the food really is. You should definitely make a stop or two at Erica’s when you are in Negril. Was cruising through Negril and after a nice day on the beach we stopped here. It was so good we had to get another other to go. The lobster, curry goat, and fish *chef's kiss* staff are very welcoming We had the best dinner at Erica’s - had fun getting To know Ms Vivienne and hearing all about the history of the restaurant founded by her mother-in-law. The curried lobster was delicious and left plenty of sauce for soaking fries to make a curry chip. The brown fish was so good - meaty fresh fish in a deep brown fish gravy, absolutely satisfying and flavorsome local dish. I would come Back here for dinner every night of vacation!

A must try if you are on the West End. We decided to give it a try based on prior reviews. This is a family owned business a little off the beaten path. The food is excellent and the prices are great. Everything is prepared to order and very fresh, with much of the veggies grown on the property. A real farm to table and a true hidden gem. The decor is rustic and homely and the service makes you feel like family. I can’t say enough positive about this spot for authentic Caribbean cuisine. We had curried lobster, butter garlic lobster and brown stew fish with rice and peas and fried plantains. Can’t wait to return.

Wonderful family owned and run Jamaican restaurant! The food is super fresh! Veggies and fruit from their own garden and the most delicious seafood cooked to perfection. Best lobster I’ve ever eaten, anywhere. Large portions of slaw, lobster (3 pieces or 1.5 tails), and rice and peas. Vivienne (hostess/waitress and owner) gives everyone in the restaurant special attention. Ask for a garden tour and see how they grow the foods you eat. DJ (cook and owner) came over and gave us each a neseberry that they grew. Their son Vaughn (artist/musician) even spoke with our son at length about motorcycles. They really love and care about what they do. Real good people. Support this local business.
