I tried this place for the first time after hearing good things about it and I was not disappointed! The chickpeas and potatoes were delicious and the mac is amazing! And they were super nice people. I will definitely be back.

I had food catered and it was amazing. We had traditional thanksgiving dishes catered that really made our thanksgiving complete. Every dish from our jerk turkey, Mac and cheese, stuffing, mashed potatoes/gravy, yams, and collard greens were amazing and prepared perfectly and to the liking of our party of 15. Thank you for making our thanksgiving complete.

I love this place whenever I visit Phoenix I made sure I go there
Fresh, authentic and delicious food! Get the goat and oxtails! Will not be disappointed.
Pro tip: call the order in or order online. Everything is homemade and may take a little bit longer, however definitely worth the wait!

Purchased the goat curry and oxtail entrees . Paid 70$. I got nothing but the small baby ends of the oxtail , literally all bone, no meat. The little bit of meat on the bones wasn’t even tender . The plantains were burnt on the outside and hard on the inside . Such a rip off . Will never return to this establishment

Good food, good drinks. Took a little longer than expected but it was okay with only 1 person working. The fried chicken was good, maybe next time I’ll see if they can add a little more seasoning and you could tell it was your basic fried chicken. Good seasoning. The Caribbean BBQ was good as always. Rice & peas were better and not as dry as others I’ve tried. The cabbage is always good, just never enough for me. I may have to get a side order. I drive 35-45 minutes to eat here. That alone should say a lot. There’s not any food left for a photo. Didn’t think to take one beforehand. I was just ready to eat. Lol. Oh yes, the pineapple ginger was good. I’ll need a larger size next time.
