Jamaica is very vegetarian friendly because Rastafarians are vegetarian. Their type of food is called Ital, a word derived from the word "vital". Ital cooking uses natural and organic ingredients, and is basically vegan with the exception of honey used in some Ital dishes.

Royal Kitchen, in the cliffs on the road between the beach and Rick's Cafe( near Hotel Samsara)
Excellent vegan food. All local vegetables grown and prepared by Errol,a charming Rastafarian. Eat there or he'll deliver to your hotel.
He will accomodate to all your needs.
