Wendell's Story

Chef Wendell Brewster's love for cooking started many years ago, having worked in multiple arenas throughout the food service industry. While working in Texas for a number of years in catering and on college and university campuses, his love for food and the customer experience grew along with his clientele and expertise in the field.

​

Upon moving back to Mississippi, he started Jerk City Grille, LLC. The Grille has been Wendell's place to serve his take on Caribbean food with a Southern twist. It's unique, yet approachable, and enjoyed by all types of palettes, with customers driving all the way from Madison, MS on a regular basis to dine with him for lunch.

​

Jackson residents suffer from a lack of dining options in the inner city, with seafood restaurants being one of the gaps that needed filling. From that, Wendell created Unk's Fish Shack as a means to provide Jacksonians with high quality dining options right in their community.

​

​

Following the need for a different take on catering menu options, Chef Wendell decided to take up catering, as well. As part of catering, customers can enjoy a mix of both Jerk City Grille's menu items and Unk's Fish Shack!
