So good. I’ve never had a bad dish - oxtail, stewed chicken, and jerk chicken. Friendly staff and huge portions.

Definitely a to go place. No real seating.

Love Jamaican food. The Curry goat is delicious! Yummy. My husband and I scarfed it down!!!

We took out Oxtail and Jerk Chicken plates. Both were great and we have sides left over for another meal!
