“I have so much love for Cane and Table. My wedding reception was held at C&T in 2019 and we had literally the best time. Best food, cocktails and ambiance. The upstairs is particularly charming and beautiful. So glad we have memories there. The staff was also so gracious and gorgeous, we had so much fun sharing our favorite day with them. For a long while we would pop in whenever we were in town and were always treated like friends. Can’t wait to visit again!“

“I was finally able to scratch that Jamaican food itch(mostly) that I'd been craving. Not sure why it took me so long to make it over here as I frequent several other businesses in the area. As such I came to my senses and stopped by on a nice afternoon for lunch. I kept it basic with the jerk chicken plate and their crawfish stuffed plantain. I was thinking it would be something similar to mufongo, but they were completely different. Super tasty little cups Caribbean crawfish joy. Then there was the massive jerk chicken plate that seemed like it had half a chicken worth of food plus. I was advised to stick with the mild as the hot is extremely hot, but I'm morbidly curious after my 1st try. The mild did have a decent amount of heat, but nothing I would consider spicy. But I know once you start adding scotch bonnets things can quickly escalate. And I don't know if the greens were callaloo or not, but they were delicious. It was nice out so I was able to sit at one of their patio tables and take in the fact that a week earlier it was snowmeggedeon here. The service was outstanding, you could literally feel the warmth and love walking in. It was like walking into my Aunt's kitchen when I was little, 'Hey beybey, you need anything, what can I get for?'. Kids walking home from school would stop in and say hi! I'm holding that 5th star hostage until I can get one of those patties. I'm still craving one and they were unfortunately out of them. They're cash or payment apps only, no credit/debit cards.

Kid-friendliness: Very much so

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a small ramp and not a step at the entrance.“

“We picked up food from here to go. FYI if you order the chicken it does come with sides… we ordered too much for two. As a person who can handle some spice, the jerk chicken was a bit spicy for me. A gradual growing spicey, so for that reason I preferred the curry chicken. Both chicken where very tender/juicy and fell right off the bone. I enjoyed the beans and rice, I’m not sure if it was a bit spicy or if it was still from the chicken but it was good. I do also recommend the collard greens.“
