Miami’s fast-casual Jamaican favorite JRK! is making two big plays to reach fans across the city—one courtside and one in Kendall. The brand announced a new concession inside Kaseya Center for the Miami Heat season and a third Miami restaurant opening at Dadeland Mall in November. 

If you’ve tried JRK!’s Aventura food hall stall or their Downtown Miami restaurant, you know the deal: bold jerk flavors, quick service, and a menu that swings from classic jerk chicken and curries to plantains and veggie-forward options. With the arena concession, Heat fans can now grab island flavors without leaving the concourse. With Dadeland, Kendall finally gets a convenient everyday location. 

Where and when

• Kaseya Center (Downtown): New JRK! concession operates during Miami Heat home games and arena events. Expect a streamlined, game-day-ready menu built around their greatest hits. 

• Dadeland Mall (7535 N. Kendall Dr.): The new store is slated to open this November. It places JRK! inside one of Miami’s busiest shopping hubs, making it a natural stop for lunch, post-shop bites, or weekend family meals. 

Why this matters
JRK!’s expansion strengthens Miami’s fast-casual scene with a homegrown concept that celebrates Jamaican flavors in an accessible format. The arena presence puts JRK! in front of thousands of fans each night, while Dadeland broadens coverage to south-Miami/Kendall residents who previously trekked north to Aventura or east to Downtown. 

What to expect on the menu
While final arena offerings may rotate, fans can expect core items like jerk chicken bowls, curry options, and signature sides. The Dadeland buildout should mirror the Downtown experience: quick service, customizable bowls, and a bright, modern aesthetic tailored to busy Miami lifestyles.

Bottom line
From Aventura to Downtown, and now Kaseya Center and Dadeland, JRK! is building a triangle of access for Miami diners. Whether you’re catching a Heat game or shopping in Kendall, you’ll have a new way to get your jerk fix without crossing the county.
