I had heard good things about Sweet Spice, which is up the hill and has a reputation for being popular with the locals, particularly cabbies.
Charlie and I tried it out. The food was good, the portions were nice, and best of all -- it had air conditioning, which is a rarity for a restaurant, even at hotels. I think Sandy Haven has a restaurant with AC, and that's about it as far as the whole town.
One thing though, Sweet Spice was not particulary inexpensive, as I thought it might be. Most of the stuff was about ten bucks a plate, and the portions were not super oversized. But it was good.
God, I love the food in Jamaica.
PS: The service was pretty good, too, and that's a big plus.
