A Ya So Nice, is doing a serious disservice to its business Model w/ these ridiculous hours. This will absolutely be the downfall of this little delicious 'diamond on the rough'. I remember when I opened My first (1st) Clothing Store in Wilmington, March 1990. I was struck w/an Epiphany one morning that turned out to be My 'Winning Lottery in every busin̈ess Endevor, thereafter. #1 . Closed Every Monday. #2.Consistency & Changed My Hours To 11a.m. til 10p.m. This was the Winning Combination.

Are they ever open?

I Love the food and the people who server it.

I ordered brown stewed chicken, rice & peas w gravy, and cabbage. It was very tasty and flavorful. My chicken was tender and juicy. Also, I liked the fact that my cabbage was firm and not soggy. Their service could be a bit faster, but overall it was a good experience.

This is a mediocre review. On several visits, I ordered different dishes, a beef patty w/coco bread; jerk chicken peas & rice; and curry chicken peas & rice. The staff was polite and pleasant. Outside plenty of parking. Inside the restaurant was a little dated, with plenty of seating. The food, reasonably priced, portions were good, however the overall taste for the Jerk chicken dish, curry chicken dish to me was just a bit off. I have tasted worst, and I have experienced better. My coco bread was stale and hard. The patty just was ok. I will consider visiting them again, in a pinch.

I recently ordered through DoorDash for my lunch as I love this restaurant it’s one of my favorite places so you can imagine my disappointment when I requested hot sauce to come with my food. As I’ve been to the restaurant before, I know they have hot sauce. But I was not able to get any as they said they do not sell it and won’t put it on the food itself. I would suggest small to-go containers/cups with lids that would allow for patrons to have sauce on the side. It may seem small but it’s for sure an inconvenience when you want your food to taste a certain way. Thank youuu!

I've had the pleasure of dining with the food here since they opened, and the service the taste has not felled me yet, I've sent all my fellow law Enforcement and their response is the same. So, if you want authentic and flavor stop by and tell them Officer Martin sent you.???

Absolutely! This mom and pop Jamaican spot is my latest favorite off the island. Had the jerk chicken and plantains with rice and peas—tasted just like back in Kingston. Can't wait to return for the quick service and delicious food. Perfect blend of flavors, not too spicy, and cooked just right.

I had the pleasure of meeting the Proprietor who is a Sweetheart. Not only was she kind, but Mother KNOWS how to put that love in her food! It was pure deliciousness! I will be making my third trip this week this afternoon. PLEASE support this business. You won't regret it.
