We need to invent a word for "hidden gem times 1,000" because, that's what this place is! It's located in Cantwell, which makes Talkeetna look like Tokyo! There ain't nothin' there. I don't even think there is a single other place to eat. Having said that, the food here is so good, that would be noteworthy even in Anchorage! The food is all Jamaican-influenced takes on classic comfort and/or Mexican foods. It's awesome. The hardest part was deciding what to order because I pretty much wanted everything on the menu. I ended up opting for the Chicken and Waffles and it was a lovely take on such a hearty classic. The waffles were infused with cinnamon and the friend chicken had notes of jerk seasoning. The buttery maple syrup completed the the flavor bomb. I will definitely be back! This place is worth driving long distances for! They are even open in the WINTER, which is as delightful as it is shocking!

Found an absolute gem of a spot when I was up to Denali for LDW. It's located in Cantwell right off the Parks Hwy! They are serving up some delicious sandwiches, salads, all day breakfast & fun apps like loaded fried & poutine. The owner is Jamaican so some of the dishes have Jamaican flavors infused into them. The owner was amazing to talk to & you can just tell he loves serving his delicious food. I will definitely be back to try the jerk chicken sandwich! Sadly he was out of some of the ingredients when I was visiting. I ordered the pork banh mi & it was packed with flavor. The pork was seasoned perfectly & the sandwich was loaded up with pickled veggies. I also ordered Jam's "frachos" from they appetizer selection. They loaded up with cheese sauce & pico de gallo. The portion on the fries was generous & they were crispy underneath the toppings. I took my food to go, but there was a decent amount of seating for dine in! If you're looking for a place to eat while up by Denali national park I highly recommend checking out Jam Jam's Spot for a satisfying flavor packed meal! Sadly there aren't many options up by Denali & with my favorite 229 Parks closed I'm always looking for some good with good flavor that's not super touristy. They will be open in the winter this season which again winter dining is extremely limited up in this area!

For a really awesome breakfast/sandwich/salad spot... Best quality and tasting food we've been traveling around Alaska! Seriously!!! You must stop here. We ordered multiple items and every single thing was delicious and had the perfect balance of flavors. Meats were all tender and flavorful. Sorry, we scarfed down all of our entrees but managed to snap a picture of the melt-in-your-mouth donuts before those disappeared too. The owner and chef here knows what he is doing and takes pride in all that he offers. He said he was going to be turning this "spot" into a fine dining establishment soon - and his creative and top notch skills will definitely make it a success! **By the way, as of this date, if you click on the directions on Yelp, it takes you to a wrong location miles away. Definitely use Apple or Google maps to find this "spot." (There's currently a wooden sign by the highway that says Jam Jam's Spot.) There's a nice ambiance and seating to eat inside as well. (Also a clean bathroom.)

Great little stop for lunch. Had one of the best club sandwiches ever! Food is excellent and made with love!

We passed by this place for a quick lunch bite. We ordered Jam's Curry Salad with chicken and Jam Jam's Banana Donut Holes, very yummy Jamaican style foods. Btw, Yelp shows it is closed today and its Yelp's location is incorrect (17 miles away), so I had hard time check in.

Solid sandwiches! Tried the curry tofu and Cuban. Two very tasty sandwiches! Put it up there with some of the best I have had!

Incredivle. Fresh ingredients and great service. Really cool location in the middle of no where. Makes you consider your own dreams! Way to go Jam Jams!!!

I came here for vacation and stoped because it said Jamaican food. Did NOT disappoint! I got the Buffalo chicken sandwich w fries and an Arnie Palmer. It was the best chicken sandwich I've ever had and the fries were made to perfection. The lemonade in the sweet tea was delicious. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone!

Definitely recommend making a stop at Jam Jam's Spot. I had the the Chipotle Chick sandwich with fries. Both were excellent and made to order. The chicken and the fries were crispy and seasoned well. I was hungry and failed to get pictures of the food, but the food pictures posted by other reviewers are accurate. The staff were welcoming. As for the spot itself, everything was very clean and bright. It's set back from road so be in the lookout. I will make stop here again next time I'm in the area.

Must-stop for munchies headed to Denali! We had the spring rolls and Jerk Chicken Sammie. Outstanding! And the staff are awesome hosts - so welcoming. Stop and stay for awhile at Jam Jam's!
