The food was very, very good and the employees are very motivated to give great service. The main reason I couldn't give 5 stars was because of its location and the fact there's no seating. A great indicator that Jamaican food is really great is that the customers were mostly Jamaican.

The restaurant was closed today
10/08/2024 and the sign on the door says opening Thursday.
I wonder if the health department has anything to do with this or building issues since their ceiling is missing tiles and has wires hanging out the ceiling.

I stopped by here to try the jerk chicken. I was referred by a friend. The line was out the door. The service was good. The staff was professional. The jerk chicken was cold. But the rice and veggies were warm. The chicken lacked flavor and spice and it did not taste fresh. I had to add my own hot sauce to the chicken to make it somewhat tolerable. I’m not sure if I just caught them on a bad day. However 1st impressions are lasting impressions.

Food was outstanding. Service was courteous. The atmosphere inside the spot was basic however outside is typical. Busy, loud and lots of cars centered around the restaurant. The food is that good and worth the task.

Parking: Stret parking. There's a parking lot next door. They're so busy if you park you will get blocked waiting for another patron to come out. They're that good!
