I was in the mood for curry shrimp and decided to try this location. I called in my order of the curry shrimp with rice and peas and cabbage. They said it would take 45 minutes because it is made to order. When I arrived I found parking on the street and walked in. The nice man came out and the food wasn't ready yet. I waited another 20 minutes or so. When it was done I paid about $19 for the small and left. When I got home I dug in and the food was very good. There was plenty of food as well. The experience I had was good and I would return.
The goat curry and chicken curry were soooo good! The jerk chicken wings were yummy as well. The portion sizes were excellent and definitely worth the money. I took a star away because I wasn't crazy about the oxtails or the wait time. They gave us the flat round pieces none were exceptionally large, nor seasoned as well as the curry but there was a good amount for the large order. The wait time was definitely long but when I finally got to taste the food I wasn't disappointed at all!
I was craving Jamican food, and this was the closest one available, so I was like let me give them a try 😑 I ordered the oxtail, rice and Peas with Mac and cheese... waited 1hr, wasn't too bothered because I was thinking that yes my food is going to be hot and fresh(WRONG!) The rice was SALTY and I don't think that was oxtail because it lost all of its flavor. I honestly think that they had the food in their freezer and then warm it up when the customer order it. I didn't like it at all and Iam so disappointed.
Absolutely no gravy on my stew chicken plate smh. So now, I can’t enjoy my food because it’s flavorless and dry. I had no clue. They tie your bag up before you can even look. Make sure you ask for gravy and check your food before you leave.
I called the restaurant before doing the review because I was do disappointed in my meal. I ordered the Curry chicken with rice and beans with an order or Roti. The entire base of the container was covered with rice and a little bit of curry chicken in the corner on top of the bed of rice and beans. There were hardly any meat and mostly bones. This was my first and last time eating in this establishment. The rice was so dry it choked me. There was about a tablespoon of cabbage in the other corner on top of the bed of rice and beans. My total was $18.50. And I’ve never been this disappointed in Caribbean food like this before. EVERYTHING WAS DRY. What little meat I managed to get from mostly bones was DRY, tablespoon of cabbage was DRY, rice and barely any beans…DRY. Most Roti have a bit of
