OMG!! This was delicious.. located in the old Crazy Cajun building .. due to just opening up in this location and no signage up yet this place is undiscovered by folks.. let me just say it was authentic Jamaican food. The J*** chicken was delicious. Fried Calamari was truly appetizing. Service was perfect.

Our favorite restaurant Desmond’s has just opened in the former Crazy Cajun site. Great menu variety, excellent food. Best ribeye this side of Jesse’s. No waiting until folks discover how GREAT IT IS. Great variety. Here are breakfast and dinner menus, along with photos of our dinner tonight. J*** red snapper, side salad, ribeye( best this side of Jesse’s), perfect baked potato and nachos They also have added chargrilled oysters. Cannot wait to try them. . Also picture of Desmond himself. Wonderful local guy with lotsa super staff. No waiting line until it’s discovered You are welcome.

Loved this place! The food was very authentic and loved the atmosphere. A little out of the way, but so worth the drive up from the beach. So glad we found it, will definitely be returning!

The dishes here are unmatched in this area. You can taste the passion for cooking with every bite. Hats off to you Desmond, for working so tirelessly to provide our community with a delicious alternative to the everyday Cisco food most places around here serve. I look forward to my next visit.

AMAZING! Husband had pork chops, rice n beans, and okra. I had beans n rice and j*** chicken. Oh my so much food and so good. This would be a regular place if we lived here. Staff was so nice also. Thank you all for your great personalities and talk.

This is real deal Caribbean food... ox tails slapping... j*** chicken slamming... I've tried other places in the area because they are closer but they are trash I wouldn't eat it for free... don't spend your money any place but right here... take the drive you won't regret it

We went there for lunch while on vacation and man was it good. The restaurant was very clean and the decorations were appealing. They served Red Stripe beer which is the first good sign of a Jamaican restaurant. The server was nice and made good suggestions. I had the seafood platter so I could try several different types of seafood. All were good, especially the scallops. The collard greens were amazing. I tried Jamaican festival which is a cinnamon flavored "hush puppy", also amazing. The person with me had the porkchop and fried orka, both were awesome as well. Please give this locally owned place a try. It will be worth it.

We both had the j*** chicken - which was fabulous! Jamaican rice & peas, festival (bread), and plantains also were delicious. Overall great food experience!!

One of my favorite restaurants in the area. Everything on the menu is amazing. And the staff is fantastic. If you aren't sure what to get they will guide you in the right direction.

Very good Jamaican food! Try this hidden gem in downtown. The collard greens are the best I've had in a while as well as the fried plantains. The owners are very nice and they take their time creating the perfect dish for you.
