Ordered from UberEats last night and I want to give a shout out bc that jerk chicken was AWESOME!! Tender chicken and that sauce i could drink with a straw! The cabbage was so flavorful and one of the best cabbage sides i've had. Loved the beef and veggie patties as well. Great job, and if/when I'm back in Birmingham overnight, I look forward to ordering again. 😊

Updated--- whoever was in the kitchen today did not do a good job..ordered and paid for the extra chicken, and I got less than i did from when I first time ordered which was a regular size. It was all rice, and a very tiny amount of the jerk sauce. I am actually pretty upset about this bc its definitely not the same and I spent alot of money on everything i ordered. Consistency is important and I sadly am disappointed :( will order from the other place next time. Sad bc I really loved the first time i ordered from here.

The worst service I’ve ever experienced. I ordered online and went to pick up my food, but I forgot the phone I used for the order. The employee refused to give me my food, claiming I needed to confirm the order on my phone or DoorDash wouldn’t pay him. I went all the way back to my office to get my phone, only to find out there was NOTHING for me to confirm—it was something he had to do on his end. Instead of apologizing, he laughed.

Then came the food
 completely inedible. The small piece of bread was soaked in gravy, and the entire meal was overpriced for what I received. This place is clearly a hobby for the owner, not a serious business. Avoid at all costs.

I ordered the brown stewed chicken lunch combo. This meal was absolutely DISGUSTING ! This is NOT Jamaican food at all ! The gravy is thick and textured like apple sauce, and it taste like gravy used to smother pork chops instead of STEW GRAVY $ My food is extremely cold, and the food is extremely BLAND ! There is NO SEASONING on this dood. Also, I bought coco bread and did not receive it. I am extremely disappointed because I am currently pregnant and had this craving on my mind for weeks ! I don’t know what is going on, but this food was disgusting. I should’ve trusted my gut and never ordered.

I have been coming here for a long time but things have changed.The portions are too small for the price. The cabbage is not cooked the same way it’s totally plain now. Hopefully things will get back better because I ordered a large jerk with double cabbage jerk chicken was good but chicken was so small I thought it was the small size.

Talk their coco bread or cloud bread is delicious and honestly paired with the beef patty it’s the perfect combo (chef’s kiss)

I use to love there food everything use to be cooked good. Well yesterday I went there for jerk chicken and rice and 2 beef patties the mac and cheese was just noodles barely cheese and no seasoning, rice was the same no salt or pepper. Also had curry goat mac and cabage cabbage was cabbage had no seasoning For what they charge food should be cooked better.

Let me start by disclosing I only ordered veggies because they ran out of fish and I don’t eat meat. The restaurant was clean. They didn’t have veggie patties or fish. The food was bland and lack flavor. Not horrible. I just expect more flavor from a Jamaican restaurant.
