This is my first time here. I'm not sure if I want a bad day or what but the food was not good had no flavor at all none at all I ordered the brown stew chickenf and oxtails and for what I paid I would expect it for my mind to be blown but like I said I don't know if I went the wrong day or what but the food was not good at all. With the oxtails I had maybe four or five pieces and they were all like the tip of the tail Just a bunch of sauce a bunch of rice and beans two little pieces of plantain and three spoonfuls of cabbage. Ask for additional size I was told they didn't have enough to do a small side of anything else. I had heard some great things about this place and was like when I'm in the area let me go ahead and try it and I was highly disappointed. The beef and the chicken patty
Food and service were great! Great portion sizes! Oxtails delicious! Brown stew chicken great!! My 9 year old son had never had Jamaican food before but he loved and said we need to come back!!
If you're searching for an unforgettable taste of the islands, look no further. This Caribbean gem offers an explosion of flavor and authenticity that transports your senses straight to Jamaica with every bite. I recently indulged in a hearty plate featuring curry goat, oxtail, cabbage, and rice & peas, and I was thoroughly impressed. The curry goat was incredibly tender, falling apart effortlessly, infused with a deep, rich curry flavor that speaks to hours of careful preparation and seasoning. Equally outstanding was the oxtail ; truly to die for, with a slow-cooked depth that bursts with bold, savory Caribbean spices. The cabbage was a pleasant surprise: perfectly cooked, subtly seasoned, and providing a fresh balance to the richness of the meats. Paired with fluffy, fragrant rice and
Walked in a little apprehensive with all the mixed reviews. But lady in the front was really nice, and food was SO good! Got the oxtail and the goat curry. Both were amazing. I’ll be back without a doubt
The service we received was great, the cashier was friendly and very accommodating. I ordered jerk chicken dinner, escovich red snapper, carrot cake, jerk chicken patty, beef patty and coco bread. We were told there would be a wait because of the fish and was fine with the wait. Food was ready in a timely fashion and we were thanked for our business. The red snapper was huge, the flavor was decent, the spice was perfect and the overall dish was good. The jerk chicken was some of the driest chicken I have ever had. It didn’t taste like jerk chicken at all unless I dipped it in the sauce that accompanied it. The cake was ok and the patties and coco bread were good and fresh. I would return but I would visit earlier in the day. We visited right at closing time do that ma explain the dry chick
