This place is dangerous! If I lived nearby, I would eat here EVERY DAY! The portions are HUGE and the food is delicious. I had the Jerk Chicken and Pork Combo and WOW! Chased it down with a Guava Pineapple drink. Even had the Key Lime Pie to go. Next time I am down in this area, I will make sure to go here.
My Lady had the Rice and Beans with Sautéed Vegetables and Mac and Cheese.

We tried the jerk chicken, oxtail and curry lamb. Everything tasted great and the portion size was plenty. The price is reasonable, cheaper than other Caribbean restaurants in Palo Alto. Rice with beans was flavorful and the fried plantains offered some extra carby nutty sweetness. The best dish was jerk chicken with a pronounced smokey flavor! Will definitely come back for more.

Would never eat there again. This is not authentic Jamaican cuisine. The jerk chicken was just grilled chicken (very dry) with green sauce on top. The rice and peas had way too many onions in it. The bbq links were okay but the sauce was more sweet than expected. There was no seasoning on the fries. Coleslaw was the only thing worth eating....everything else was straight trash! NEVER AGAIN! GD on that folk

I ordered delivery and was served raw chicken! The worst part is it was half cooked half raw so I didn’t notice until I ate a few pieces that tasted funny and looked closely. A day later I felt light headed and threw up a few times ?.
Although the many times I ate here before the food was good, this scared the hell out of me. Won’t be eating here in the future.

Wanna spend less than $20 per person and eat like a king? This is the place to go.
The food is so lovely! Ox tail and goat are my favorite, while my friends love their jerky chicken.
Highly recommended.
