If I could give more stars I would. I’ve had the oxtails, red beans and rice, curry goat and none have disappointed. The flavors and portions have all been great. Looking forward to my next visit and to try something new on the menu. Gonna have to say this is one of my top Jamaican restaurant choices in Rogers Park, definitely on the north side.

This past Wednesday my family and I visited this wonderful restaurant and had a great experience. The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming? I ordered the Mac and cheese which I finished pretty fast (I sound so greedy). I went on to order the escovitch fish, which I accidentally left at the restaurant. The little bit of fish I was able to try, was amazing. We’re definitely planning to return.

The food and atmosphere was very inviting. We went for a family dinner and really enjoyed our evening out. The host and the owner both went above and beyond to make certain we had a pleasant and memorable time. We will be returning soon. ❤️ ????
