3 Dives Restaurant

1/5/23
Visited Jamaica in January for a family event. We were staying nearby in an Airbnb and this was a short walk away, food here was very very good. Easy to walk to and friendly staff. Plenty of spots to sit down and eat and the view from the cliff is very lovely and romantic at sunset. The food does take a while (1hr+) so just be prepared to wait but it is worth it. We had the jerk chicken, we went to spot at least three times while we visited. Open till late. Local come hang out here too, can smoke freely. Some Parking available onsite

Great view. Great food. I absolutely love their hot sauce, probably had a gallon of it on my food. The conch curry was awesome. I only have partially eaten food shots because it looked so good when it came out. Worth stopping. Plenty of parking and outside space.

3 Dives is a great place to have dinner and catch the sunset. It is located on a grassy clifftop with picnic tables all over.

We had a 1/2 chicken, rice and peas, plantains, and festival. We received mostly white meat and it was a bit dry, but the smoke flavour was great and the jerk sauce was the best we'd had on the island. We liked it so much that my partner bought a water bottle of sauce for $1750JMD.

The festival and plantain were also delicious. Festival is always good, but 3 Dives has a really good one.

There looks to be a little swimming spot as well, as there is a ladder to get down to to the ocean, but we did not partake.

I see some reviews saying cash only, however we were able to pay with credit.

Great local food! Jerk chicken, rice and peas and veggies. Worth the wait! They make it fresh to order, so prepare for a few beers while you wait. I walked around and took in the stunning scenery of the cliffs. Not far from Rick's Cafe if you are heading there, stop here 1st.

Returned again after five years. As good as always. True authentic Jamaican fare that is some of the best in Negril. Arrive early and enjoy the views. Plan for at least two hours time to enjoy this rustic gem. Lobster curry is out of this world. Great jerk chicken.

By far one of the best places I've been to in Jamacia for the Lobster. The view from the cliffs out onto the sea was awe inspiring. It may take a bit of time for them to cook your food but it's well worth the wait, after all good things take time. It has that rustic laid back vibe, the one that you always read about but never quite find. Give this place a try, you won't be disappointed

Did not see anyone around dinner time
We just enjoyed sunset and went somewhere else

Plan to stay a while like most of the good places to eat. We come here atleast once every trip. This time we were right across the road from here and went a few times for food and a few times just to hang out and watch the sunset. PRO CANADIAN TIP: Festival and maple syrup is godly... we got 2 orders of it before going home. Very recommended!! Bring your own real maple syrup.

We arrived right before a large reservation, but they still let us know the food would take time to be ready. I had the grilled lobster, my partner had jerk chicken. It was amazing, as always.

The perfect alternative to a tourist destination, truly. It's awesome, just a little while away from the world famous Rick's Cafe, it has it's own charm and occupies it's own space.

The food here is absolutely delicious, it's right on a cliff, the sunset here is truly gorgeous.

I find it charming, the prices are moderate and the vibe is nice.

This is a real Jamaican restaurant, notice I said restaurant and not cook shop.

Food is done to order

So when you're ready to visit again be sure to call.

The best in the cliffs and one of the best in Jamaica. We’ve been going here for a decade and it’s been delicious for a decade. So consistent, take some time but it’s well worth it. Curry shrimp is one of the best, curry goat, curry chicken, why am I even listing these things. Eat anything, it’s delicious. Prices are above average but portions are generous

The lobster curry was fantastic, the service was kind and friendly and the view is beautiful

I had an amazing dinner with magnificent views everything was cooked fresh so it takes time but totally worth it .

Best lobster ever. Freshly caught daily and grilled to order. It is at a more westerly point than Rick Cafe. I got the perfect sunset on the GPS west point of Jamaica from there. Relaxing and Romantic spot

Bring cash. Best meal we had in Negril. I didn’t want to eat at ricks because I read the food wasn’t great. So I searched for best food Negril and 3 dives came up. I agree, this was the best food we ate in Negril. The owner was so warm and friendly! The food was FIRE!! Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and delicious. I wish we would have visited sooner, we would have eaten here often. The pumpkin rice was fantastic! The callaloo and cabbage was better then any I’ve ever had. The opener said everything was made with love and man do you taste it!!! Highly recommend. As previously stated, it was my BEST MEAL in Negril! Also you can access the ocean from the restaurant if you care for a swim.

The BEST jjerk chicken in Negril. Mi naa ask yuh. They weren't selected to be on the Amazong Race by fluke. Their good is just THAT good. The BEST Curry lobster I have EVER had in my ENTIRE life! Lloydie's secret jerk sauce I buy and bring back to Canada. His steam fish is LIFE! Literally everything I've ever had from here was made to perfection!

A MUST visit if in Negril!

Gorgeous view, AMAMZING escovitch fish, and jerk chicken, walking distance from hotels and resorts. Cold beer, casual dining, did I mention how devine The food odd at 3 Dives, highly recommended. The staff is both friendly and charming. Can't wait to dine here again next year.

Their jerk chicken was the best one I tasted in Jamaica. It was sooo good. We took 1/2 jerk chicken each and we got really full. Delicious!
It says you can pay with card but they said the machine didn't worked so we had to pay cash.

Great food, well worth the wait.
Portions are generous. We made a mistake of ordering two 1/2 jerk chicken, and two sides. Between two people we took a whole meal with us.

Food is very good. Low key atmosphere. Great for grab and go. Had curried shrimp that was so potent it stained my nails and the table under the carton it came in yellow! It was delicious though :)
