Amazing Caribbean food spot with friendly service. Tried the cow heel soup and the bake and salt fish. Both dishes were delicious. Definitely want to try their cow heel souse & pepper pot next time. It wasnt available on the Saturday. Might have sold out by the time I got there. It's worth calling ahead since some items sell out quickly. Listing the price of items on the menu would be helpful since it's cash payment.

Absolutely delicious, I got the brow stew chicken with rice and beans and cabbage, a drink called Bentley and a beef patty for $20. It’s so flavorful. Smells wonderful and the people that assisted me were incredibly kind and educated me on what’s spicy and what’s not. Absolutely would try again

$6 wasted! It’s not the money being wasted it’s the principal.. I ordered spinach rice and jerk chicken mini meal and so disappointed. The rice has an old expired smell to it and the chicken was cold. I immediately called them to let them know.. doesn’t matter if it’s in a less privileged area.. they shouldn’t be taking peoples money and serving garbage

The Curry Duck was delicious, good rice & peas w/cabbage and plantains♥️

★★★★★ 5.0 Food Whisperer · Aug 2024

They have a huge selection of drinks and the place was very clean. Delicious oxtail ( large portion was excellent for the price ) Beef patties were baked nicely and well stuffed. Cake was nice A+ : Portions, flavors, right spiced. Beautiful mural and ice cream area. B- : Oxtail was overcooked and it was overly gelatinous at that point. Rice was mushy / overcooked and looked like a chowder. Would go back and try something different next time.
