Have to admit it is most poor tasting food specially for vegetarians. Food looked charred. I dunno whats the point of frying a tiny banana, it tasted so bad. The flavour was very bad just turmeric and nothing else. Have never tasted such bad food with poorly cooked veggies. The rice was of poor quality. The salads were bland and tasteless. Please improve the quality.

Uncooked chicken, we arrived home with two plates of chicken. In both plates the chicken was raw, is seriously dangerous, actually it’s not the first time that it’s happened, I don’t know how this place is still open, someone should be checking the food over there.

The food portion was huge for the price. I had the jerk chicken and oxtail combo plate, both were juicy, tender and full of flavor. The ginger beer was very different from what I expected, and in a good way. Will go back again!

This was my first and last time at this restaurant. I purchased this food to eat on my way home but started eating in the parking lot because I was excited to taste it. If I lived closer I would definitely request a refund.
The cashier was friendly and professional and the gentleman that gave me my food was also friendly.
I never understand why restaurants serve food that is of poor quality or old. I ordered a coco bread to eat on the way home. As you can see in the picture that is not coco bread and it's old and completely dried out. The bun from my sandwich was not edible as it was stale and dried out as well. The chicken was very dry and hard, there's no way the owners of this establishment would be happy eating what is being served. The jerk chicken flavor was not bad at all but the dryness and texture ruined it. The festival is not traditional festival but it was enjoyable. The plantains were fresh and they gave a good amount in the side order. I really and truly hope they start putting more love into what is being served.

Used to love everything goat and their ginger beer. I'm updating my review... over time, the quality of the food has declined. It used to be my go-to place for Jamaican, but over the last two years. Not so much. Often, the goat is more bone than meat, food is overly salty, or the pork is partially burned. I wanted to think it was just a bad day, but repeat visits done bare that out. I leave disappointed at what used to be a good thing.
