I ordered the 1/2 mix3d chicken dinner with red beans and rice. The chicken was very delicious, tender and flavorful. The red beans and rice was good with the gravy we even dipped the bread in the gravy.

I've eaten here many times before and food was great. I've never never been on a Sunday and will not if this is the norm. This past experience was just an embarrassment for me as I bought a plate of food for a friend and some jerk wings for my self and some plantain. Chicken was clearly from yesterday and the rice and peas was as well. The plantian them look like they may have been from the day before as well. Lackluster service and what looked and tasted like leftovers....

Was not a fan of the goat curry - there was a bit of fat in the portion I got and it tasted off to me. I did enjoy the Mac and cheese and thought it was good. I believe they only do pick up since there wasn’t any sit down places to eat at.
