It is not a restaurant, it is a roti shop. Don't expect restaurant service. The food is amazing. And there is only one woman there doing everything by herself. Give her grace. It will be worth it once you try the food.
Decided to try this spot as I was in the area even though lots of reviews said this lady had a major attitude problem but I figured why not still try.
So yes...homegirl does need to adjust the attitude but within the 20 mins of waiting for my food people kept coming in to place orders attitude or not. I ordered doubles which was actually the best I've had in Tampa and also got buss up shot with bone in curry chicken which was excellent. Will I be visiting again? Definitely...read full review

Outstanding roti with many vegan options! S is super sweet but no-nonsense. A Tampa Trini institution.
