My coworker saw absolutely no one here, so she was hesitant to order the food.Instead she ordered the Pineapple cake and ended up regretting it. To me, it tasted like a weird cheap boxed cake--I tried a bite. She said she didn't like the aftertaste. Either way, it went in the trash.She said to give this place a barely 3 stars. But honestly it should get 2 stars for this overpriced horrible cake.

Had the jerk chicken with the rice and cabbage my girl got the plantains instead of cabbage and we both was in each other plate! Then the ginger lemonade was amazing but I love ginger, and the sorrel hibiscus drink also very dangerous. Great place to eat

Mimi was great. I love J*** chicken and I know what it tastes like. I've had it in Jamaica too. This was no where near the taste and was just bland baked chicken with bland yellow rice and a few peas. I didn't bother with the small condiments, because I shouldn't have needed them. The meal was plentiful and I will doctor it up tomorrow for leftovers. I make tastier chicken with the j*** chicken seasonings I buy from the Jamaican market in Oakland.
