Our Story
A Taste of Jamaica,
Right Here in Colorado Springs
High Grade Foods is an authentic Jamaican restaurant and catering operation rooted in bold island flavors and a genuine love for cooking. Located at 1020 South Tejon St in Colorado Springs, we serve authentic Jamaican cuisine alongside familiar American favorites — prepared fresh, every single day.
Behind every dish is Chef and Owner Everton Cameron, a native of Jamaica who has been cooking since the age of seven. His professional career began at 20 as a line cook at a four-star hotel in Jamaica — and within months, his passion, speed, and dedication earned him a promotion to Sous Chef. He became the go-to chef to represent the hotel in local competitions, building a reputation that spread across the Caribbean food scene.
After years of putting the hotel's kitchen — and his own name — on the map, Everton brought his craft to the United States. Since then, he has continued to evolve, reimagining some of the world's most authentic dishes to connect with American palates. Making people fall in love with food all over again.
Today, High Grade Foods operates both a full-service restaurant and a food truck that travels to events across Colorado Springs — including regular stops at Fort Carson, Schriever Air Force Base, and the United States Air Force Academy, proudly serving the men and women who serve this country.
We also offer full-service catering for breakfast, lunch, and dinner — anywhere in Colorado Springs and surrounding areas. Prefer something more personal? We do private in-home dining too. Just ask.
