★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Idecha Mitchell · Feb 2026

This use to be a great spot the lady at the front counter is so unfriendly not very welcoming at times seems rude and bothered,but i dont know if they changed the cook but the patties were runny no meat then the curry goat and oxtail were tough, curry goat was too spicy, i use here all the time from Rosell, wont be back for a min. Hopefully the food will get better here.😟🫤☹️

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Maryam Toler · Jun 2025

I went here because the reviews proclaimed it to be real authentic and delicious. I ordered stew chicken and it tastes more like barbecue chicken. The rice is undercooked. I haven’t tasted the cabbage yet but I’m pretty sure that’s gonna be underwhelming as well. Everyone’s taste is different, but this is definitely not top-notch. It’s a “decent” plate if you just need something to eat. I’m a little annoyed because I sought out this place specifically because of the reviews, but had a number of other choices that are much better. I think this is mid ground, which is why I gave it a three out of five.

I was recommended by a friend to come here. I'm so happy I did cause the food was so good. Roger was very polite and attentive. I was served right away. I am very pleased with the customer service. Thanks, guys, for being open at this time of night.

This has been the worse experience and I will never recommend anyone to go here for food, I ordered through uber eats for my lunch at work, I ordered curry goat with rice and peas, and I also ordered two beef patties, the delivery person showed up with a soup, now I’m askin for a manager there’s none available, now one of the workers decided she will call me from her personal number to try and Zelle my money back to me and up until now I still haven’t gotten my money back, I ordered from since 12 something it’s now after 4 with no food or money I am never ordering anything from here, that was my first and last time

Was told my oxtail dinner had steam cabbage and instead it’s old lettuce and cold salad. What would make you think I wouldn’t know the difference? For the price of this meal you should tell people what you have and don’t have. Who eats cold salad with oxtails? Very disappointed with this meal.
