This was one of the worst I've had. I ordered oxtail,peppered steak and Jerk chicken. The oxtail was very very fatty the cabbage was too mushy ,the peppered steak and jerk chicken has no taste, I had to through out the whole order.

First, the rice doesn't have no peas and doesn't taste like Jamaican food. The rice is some pale rice from Uncle Ben's. The worst chicken I ever had.

Carl, Thank you for your cooking. I have yet to try the jerk offerings but the bbq, rice and beans, and cabbage are outstanding. I will be back as often as I can.

Jerk chicken was moist, tender, and bursting with flavor and heat. Perfect amount of spice and generous portion size. Platter included rice with some curry drizzled atop and stewed veggies, all delicious. The owner came by to ask me how I liked it, if the spice level was ok, etc attentive but in a genuine way.No frills counter serve but has everything you need i.e great food.

This was our first time here. I would describe it as your local hole in the wall. It’s not much to look at. It’s very small and and almost shabby. Our food came in styrofoam containers with plastic silverware. That being said the food was PERFECT!!! Just the right amount of heat. If this were closer to home I would eat here once a week!! I don’t need fancy, just good food and this is it! The portions were good and the price was inexpensive. We both had lunch for under $30. We’ll definitely go back.

Parking: Only a few spots in front of the restaurant.

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to get in but a narrow doorway might be hard in a wheelchair.
