Was a great experience . Worth the drive all the way from Ohio !!!
The curry chicken was a little over spiced and the macaroni wasn't nasty just different!!
Incredible food, slow wait times even when not very busy
The food is good, however they are way too nonchalant when it comes to inconveniences that are THEIR fault. Yesterday 7/3 this was my first time coming to pick the food up myself. I was waiting and I noticed the girl at the register told a lady the payment options were cash app or Zelle because their card machine must’ve been down. But you could tell the customer had no knowledge of this whatsoever and the cashier had no emotion..didnt even apologize. She acted as if it wasn’t a big deal. I get my food, she tells me they’re all out of the chicken patties and tells me the options now are veggie or spinach. I don't want any of that and I would've appreciated them calling to let me know ahead of time. Again, more nonchalant attitude with no apology for the inconvenience. So I opted for a refund of course. They need to do better. Also, the front counter is extremely dirty.
The location was a bit hard to find since it’s literally a house on the side of the road (with colorful fences)! Oxtail was really good, but the jerk chicken was slightly dry.
Great food, waited too long
Oxtails spoiled and cabbage not fully cooked
A bit too expensive TBH.... But great food
The service was also too long of a wait 25min!
Order ahead if you're wanna eat there or just order takeout

The food is delicious and the portion are more than enough. The staff is great. The restaurant could use some touching up.

I really wanted to like the food here but the jerk chicken wasn’t good. I didn’t really like the rice and peas and plantains. The coco bread was good but overall I felt like the food was very mid.

Talk about the shack on the hill? The food is awesome, even if the location is crazy. I'd definitely hit this spot again.
