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!
May 2025
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.

Such a hidden gem this place is. We ordered jerk chicken and jerk salmon, it was so good. Came with fried plantains. The corn bread also was nice & warm. Will definitely be coming back
