Food is mediocre at best. I had the curry chicken, with rice and cabbage, not fresh at all. Music too loud. My friend ordered the fried chicken wings, they murdered them hard and burnt. Nothing write home. $40 DOLLARS WORTH OF DISAPPOINTMENT.

No no no this ain't it guys , I honestly don't know where to begin, I got the jerk wings and they were seasoned so nice and looked so good,but they were hard as rocks,I was so disappointed,the cabbage was hard and bland , the rice was ok I guess but that was it,so basically I paid $25 bucks for a side of rice w gravy, the trash can ate the rest
This food is terrible, it tastes old ,won't be back,2 stars because the cashier lady was nice,but other than that the food is awful
Listen I'm coming off a 2 day fast so i'm literally SUPERRRR hungry and craving jerk wings, I see this place all the time on my runs so I figured I'd try em out.... WORST JAMAICAN FOOD / FOOD DECISION, EVER!!,,,the chicken was hard and old like chewing on a leather belt, literally inedible,the cabbage was cold and hard,and the rice was mid , I'm literally sitting here writing this in anger as I am out of 13 bucks and still hungry, PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE ,WASTE OF MONEY, do yourself a favor and go a few miles down the road to jerk vybes on Washington rd,,,,because do you know how trash the food gotta be for you to throw it away and it's the first thing you had to eat in 2 days, that's InsaneeeeeðŸ˜ðŸ˜ -2/10, worst food I've eaten in 2025, I swear to God, I'll eat a pack of raw noodles and a dry popeyes biscuit before I eat here again, I don't know where them 5 star reviewers ate at but it wasn't here😤I WANT MY MONEY BACK
Absolutely delicious food. I've been coming for years and I've never been disappointed at staff or food. Top notch Caribbean food.

Myself and my husband just got food from there today 12/28/24 @ 6:01 p.m. The young man working had an attitude. When we ordered our food we asked to have oxtail gravy on our rice, my husband even asked to buy a cup of the gravy. Out comes my food I ordered the medium rib plate, it looked like a small and I was charged $17.24 for this plate, and when he showed my plate there was ni oxtail gravy. So I asked if I could get gravy on my rice, he caught an attitude. We will not be back, always trying to support the people and get ripped off& attitudes

The food tasted good. I had the curry chicken and white rice with cabbage and a beef patty. The only thing I didn't like was that there was very little gravy. The chicken tasted good but had almost no gravy on it. The patty was good and perhaps the best thing I got. It's attached to a gas station which I was not expecting but the cashier was friendly. Overall I like it. Not the very best in the metro area but pretty good.

Best place to eat in the immediate area without a doubt with healthiest good choices. Could easily happily eat here everyday for lunch instead of waffle House or all the fried food at the wing place next door. 5/5 ?????
Love the jerk beef ribs with all cabbage add plantains ?
Vegetarian options: Cabbage, rice, peas, plantains etc are all available

I ordered the chicken and rib plate with veggies and rice and peas. One combo. Fed two people fully. The seasoning was just right and it was soooo good. Will revisit
