“The Jerk Chicken here was some of the best cooked chicken I've had; not just on the Range but anywhere! Skin was crispy and the meat itself was just the right moisture level with great flavor. Affordable and the Service was also great! Waitress earned my gratitude when she helped stop my son from dipping his fingers in the ghost pepper hot sauce. If you're on 53 on your way to wherever, it's a welcome change of pace from the usual food options and just a few miles off the highway.”

“My friends recommended the whistling bird for dinner so i went in last night, and was amazed! I had the jerk pulled pork sandwich, it blew my mind how amazing it tasted. I wish i had pictures to show how how good it looked. I would definitely recommend everyone to try it. Gina was my server she was really quick and extremely polite! She never let my glass reach empty! So I would give the whistling bird a 100000/10 would recommend to absolutely everyone. I think that there is a dish on the menu for everyone.”

Hot Jerk Sauce 4 oz

$1.50

Four ounces of hot jerk sauce, a Caribbean condiment for adding to food.

“Great food. This place has been on my wish list for a long time, and I happened to be in the area to try it. Jerk chicken is a solid quarter chicken with a good char on it, wet jerk sauce on the side (get the hot stuff, it's still not THAT hot), beans and rice has a coconut milk sweetness to it, and fried sweet plantains. Others had the Rasta Pasta and really liked it. Good specialty drinks, and a great Caribbean atmosphere.”
