JUST DRY!!! Came from Delaware to buy some authentic tasting Jamaican cuisine. My usual spot was closed. Saw this had high stars and decided to give it a try. The snapper was great, however, the brown stew chicken lacked sauce. It was my family’s first time tasting Caribbean food and so I suggested they got the bs chicken. I feel bad because they paid a good amount to receive the less than expected dish; big pieces of chicken with little no sauce making it unpleasant to eat. I hope the other meals was fine but I will just stick to my other restaurant that puts alot of heart in their service, meals, and customers.
I ordered Rasta pasta with oxtails. The oxtails were good but the rasta pasta was disgusting. There was NO sauce just oil and cheese. I have no idea why they’d even serve that. I threw it away.
This restaurant is at the top of my list as a go-to spot for Jamaican Caribbean cuisine. I brought my family here to try the dishes after hearing it mentioned a few times in passing, and I was not disappointed. My go-to is the oxtail with rice and peas. All I can say is that I planned to save some to take home... my stomach had other plans. Shout-out to the chef, very personable and welcoming, with a great sense of humor and clearly a real family man. I truly appreciated the fatherly, encouraging words he shared with me as well. God bless them. Highly recommended!
Ordered a Stewed Peas platter w/ a side of Jerk Chicken through GrubHub! Everything was flavorful & fresh! I'll definitely order again in the near future! Good luck on your new business!
Ordered the jerk pork on DoorDash yesterday. Somehow the leftovers hit even better today. Pork was juicy and was definitely made on a grill. My small serving was plentiful. Would most definitely order more in the future!!!
