★★★★★ 5.0 Angela Rosado · Feb 2026

If you love soul Caribbean food and playing pool this is the place! Super chill good people and vibes and the cook omg!, Brenda’s Hands are blessed! I had the jerk chicken, super tender, spicy and flavorful enough to enjoy and also tried their whiting dish as well that my brother ordered. I look forward to coming back to try other platters!! And enjoy the well Mannered pro players.. awesome spot

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jamiee Edwards · Jul 2021

Im always skeptical of ordering from restaurants that have very large menus because they never seem to master one particular dish. I ordered on Grub Hub. Order came in a timely fashion. Unfortunately their plating sizes do not match up to their pricing. The small dish pictured is a $17.00 large order of oxtails. It comes in a small container. Gravy is good but the meat is chewy. Mac & cheese consistency is great but it is flavorless. Rice and beans aren’t too bad a little hard but not terrible. I feel as though I’m eating leftovers.

Great seeing my old friends Dave & Brenda.

This is a small place in east orange. The owner is amazing and her food is an experience: I usually get the fish with Mac and Cheese. Will recommend if you are in the area. You should call. Takes a while for food to be ready but is worth the wait. Get for soul food lovers!

This is some of the worse Jamaican food I have ever had. The curry chicken was pink and uncooked and no flavor at all. The Rice n Peas was so salty it was also inedible. Complete waste of money.
