I ordered a large curry goat with rice and peas and cabbage. I specifically requested less rice and more cabbage and explicitly asked for extra gravy. Unfortunately, I did not receive what I asked for. To be fair, this is the driest curry goat I have ever had. When I called the store to address the issue, I was told that other customers had complained about receiving too much gravy, so the server decided to go “light” on my extra gravy request. I’m baffled—especially after leaving work to pick up this meal. Now, I’m about to meet with a team of contractors and motivate them to meet holiday business goals, all while battling dry curry goat on my tongue. It’s frustrating to suffer because of someone else’s complaints about gravy. On the positive side, the jerk chicken is good, but honestly

All of their food is good here but the Oxtail Mac n Cheese beef patty here is absolutely mouthwatering and sensationally great. You've gotta come and get it. Don't mind the $12.99 price lol It's worth every penny and more. You'll crave it Everytime after tasting it. It's Oxtails and Mac n Cheese in a beef patty wrapped with cocobread. Pay no attention the the Carbs and calories either lol. Just make sure to exercise and enjoy! I don't even care about the beef patty anymore after eating this. Everytime going forward it's the oxtail Mac n Cheese beef patty for me. Best Regards. Grocksmooth!

I ordered brown stew fish & oxtails. The oxtails were undercooked & the fish looked & tasted horrible. What’s this green color on the “Red Snapper?”I spent almost $100 in total for horrible food. This is the last time I’ll be ordering from this place!!

This was a beautiful, authentic jamaican experience and I will definitely be going back when I'm able to (I live in Maine). The owner who's name is Roy was very nice and so professional. The food was excellent!! to say the least and well proportioned. I started eating before taking the pics sorry, I couldn't resist. I recommend this restaurant with no hesitation. You should definitely try it sometime.
