$26 for a large oxtail, only to give me 4 pieces is DiABOLiCAL. The oxtail was a little bit sweeter than I'm used to. It was fine up until I found a metal shaving in there, like from a metal pot scrubber or steel wool. I'll never go back.
Clean small space business. Used to visit weekly before covid. Needed a quick nearby lunch. Got brown stew chicken rice n peas w veggie. They dont skimp on gravy. Food was hot fresh and tasty as I remembered. Not overly spicy just flavorful. Cashier very friendly. Menu prices not bad pd 12.00 for a small. Parking can be tricky but an easy in and out lunch run. Satisfied my hunger and was able to eat rest for dinner
I ordered the stew peas with pigtails Large. I asked the lady. If They had enough pigtails she said yes how ever when she gave me the container, it only had 4 pieces of pig tail. And she told me, if I wanted 2 more pieces of pigtails it would be $5 remind you people , I just paid nineteen dollars for a Large. The only thing that was good was the customer service , but I got a half a bag of rice with beans and four pigtails, that's it.I don't know what happened, but before they used to give more food, maybe it's the prices.But four pigtails for $20 is not worth the. I will not be going back again. I hope them the best island cuisine please to do better.
Sadly gotta give these guys a 1, no reason I’ve been walking multiple times & calling multiple times to check if pepper stake is made and it never is. There best dish and they barely prepare it not sure why it isn’t just made the same w everything else everyday, was told Thursday Friday I call those days still nothing. Make no sense. Just take it off the menu completely that would make more sense!!! Ridiculous bro
Great service very nice ladies. Got medium oxtail.. bussing (very good) falling off the bone. Sauce is very flavorful. Rice cook to perfection. Got a chocolate cake can’t wait to buss that down. Not a fan of the beef patty it’s too spicy for me but it was hot and flaky. Got a small chicken soup again BUSSINGGGG. Very very pleased. Best Jamaican food I’ve had since living in Hartford for 2yrs will be returning back again again and again!!!!
