They have a buffet for lunchtime.
On Fridays, it's all you can eat oxtails on the buffet. I had the yellow rice with rice/peas, green, brown stew chicken, and oxtails.
It is very clean and very welcoming, and if you are looking for a good hearty lunch Check them out

I ordered the lemon pepper bone in wings I thought they would be made with the lemon pepper seasonings like other restaurants around town however to my surprise they were made with what tasted like fresh lemon juice. Also they were cooked fresh and to perfection. I also have had the oxtail from her and everything was amazing. I went on a Saturday night and while there found out they they have live entertainment or karaoke most Friday's and a international party on Saturday...
