Visited this establishment on 4-11-24 based on the rave reviews, and I must admit, the food was delicious. I had a large jerk chicken dinner and was concerned that my eyes were bigger than my stomach, based on the large portion of food I received. The chicken was nice and moist and perfectly seasoned. I didn’t get the jerk sauce on the dinner, I requested it on the side. I must admit that I did not use the sauce because the chicken was succulent all by itself. The rice and peas and cabbage were also good. I don’t normally eat Jamaican patties because the breading is too thick. I bought a patty and ate it on the way home. I was mad at myself for not tasting it prior to leaving the establishment because I wanted another one. ?The breading was nice and thin and the filling was delicious. Needless to say I had plenty leftover food for later. I will be patronizing this restaurant regularly. I look forward to trying other dishes on their menu. Hands down, one of the best Jamaican restaurants I’ve ever had.

The service was fast. They didn’t have change for a buck so I had to use my card. I wasn’t happy with the little .50 charge, but I understand it was early. This is a small place, but the kitchen was nice and busy. I do appreciate being able to see what’s going on back there. I ordered a large curry goat with cabbage rice and peas. The curry has just enough spice. ❤️❤️❤️?I will return with smaller bills?Parking: I parked a little down the street. I’m not sure if they have parking in the back of the building. If not there’s limited parking in front.

I’m not understanding why they have a 4.6.? I ordered ox tails. The flavor was good, the meat was tough.. That was because they were not fully cooked. The cut of the meat was interesting looking. Lots of gristle.! I won’t be returning!
