Tru Jamaica, a beloved Caribbean restaurant located at 937 Taylor Street in Waco, Texas, is set to make a triumphant return after securing the necessary permits to rebuild and expand. The restaurant, which was forced to close its doors due to a devastating fire, is now on track to reopen and better serve its loyal patrons.
The fire incident left the restaurant in ruins, displacing the owners, employees, and loyal customers. However, thanks to a concerted effort and a clear vision, Tru Jamaica is now poised for a remarkable comeback.
The rebuilding project is slated to commence on January 1, 2024, with a targeted completion date of August 15, 2024. The estimated cost of the renovation and expansion is a substantial $250,000. This investment will not only restore the restaurant to its former glory but also introduce exciting changes that promise to enhance the dining experience for all who visit.
The scope of work for this project primarily involves the remodeling of the existing kitchen and a thoughtful addition to the kitchen space. The management of Tru Jamaica is committed to maintaining the authenticity of their Caribbean cuisine while also incorporating modern amenities to better serve their customers.
The expansion will add 758 square feet to the existing restaurant space, creating a more comfortable and spacious environment for diners to enjoy their delicious Caribbean dishes. Tru Jamaica has long been a culinary hotspot in the heart of Waco, known for its flavorful jerk chicken, tender oxtail, and delectable plantains. With the impending expansion, even more patrons will have the opportunity to savor these mouthwatering delicacies.
