Rice & peas, cabbage wit 2 pieces of chicken. In real time cost me about $15-16. Which would of been ok if the food was hot. Today's review is a thumbs down.

I went here yesterday and spent about $100. First let’s start with the customer service from the lady ringing up my order. I asked for oxtail gravy on my small jerk chicken meal. She preceded to give it to the chef in back for jerk sauce to be put on the rice and when I explained I asked for oxtail gravy and not jerk she instantly got an attitude. This is not the first time it seems she’s always bothered. Support black businesses they say🙄🤷🏽‍♀️ now the food! The jerk chicken is EXTREMELY TOO HOT! You can’t even enjoy it it’s sooooo hot. The oxtails were tough and needed to be cooked longer. There was a thick layer of cheese ontop of the Mac and cheese that wasn’t even melted.🤢 My first time back here since I chewed on some wire thingy that was in my saltfish.

If you’re looking for authentic Caribbean food, this is it. The jerk was spicy, richly seasoned, and was falling off the bone. I had the veggie rice, jerk chicken, and the cabbage side. Can’t wait to go back and try everything else

I just went bought breakfast from Flames and the lady behind the counter customer service was terrible. She Rank!!! Rude and unwelcoming. Flames be careful who you have serving your food, it will drive customers away.

The food is always good. Portions are good. Can be a little pricey, but worth it.

Dinner at Flames did not disappoint! The food was packed with flavor, the portions were perfect, and the vibes were just right for a relaxing night out. Service was quick and friendly, and the whole place felt super welcoming.

As someone who spends all day training dogs around town (Down 4 Paws Dog Training), it was such a treat to unwind here. Already planning my next visit!

I paid 32 dollars for a large plate of oxtail that weren’t even cooked all the way. I told my lady friend, flames mattapan is the best because I’ve always had a good experience. I bring home home the food and the rice was burnt and the oxtail were undercooked. I skipped the rice and spent an hour cooking the oxtails until they were tender like they’re supposed to be. I’m very disappointed.

Consistently authentic Jamaican restaurant. This location is excellent!

These woman that work here it's either they have problems at home or something is off because they are not very customer friendly they seems to be sulky when sharing the food and not very approachable. You're in a business place You're sharing food at least have a pleasant look on your face. When they're not on their phone talking via their earbud it's something else
