The portion was very small for the price. I for half a cup of rice and beans. The Mac and cheese taste very acidic and watery idk if they put vinegar or lemon juice in it. The ox tail wasn’t what I expected or what I’m used to eating. Overall the staff were nice and very hospitable but the food definitely did not meet my expectations.

Ordered a cheese steak and it was more like condiments on a sub roll with tomato. How they're still in business is beyond me!!

They do more talking than savings. Everything is overpriced and extremely high one if they pay $24 for y'all not to put salt, pepper and ketchup on my stuff and also to forget my macaroni and cheese that you guys never have I won't be back

Phone doesn’t work to call. This is not true Jamaica food this is an American who is trying to make Jamaican food. Doesn’t even taste like what you get at a Jamaican food spot. Seasoning is all off and full of cayenne pepper. Place had no rice and beans and cabbage was hard. I will never go back to this, one and done

Lady is rude and nasty attitude, first thing that was said “Whatchu want?” The place stinks and she talks on her phone a lot and prices are high gave us the wrong order which was chicken curry got goat instead, I knew when she gave us that attitude out front her place we shouldn’t have ordered but we just thought maybe she was having a rough day

Amazing authentic Jamaica food! 🇯🇲 💯 Soft
huge Oxtail pieces, perfectly cooked plantains! This was my second order and it will not be my last! I highly recommend this delicious Ja restaurant! 💯😍

I ordered the curry chicken with rice and peas, and it was the worst that I have ever had in my life. There was a 10 minute wait for my order, and when I received it, one part of the trey was cold and the other was hot. The only part of my meal that was hot was the rice, and it looked old. I threw my order in the trash because I never re order from the same cook. This place was trash.

It's a walk up counter place but the woman there was super nice and got curry chicken with plantains and mac & cheese. The food hit the spot and the Mac & cheese in the curry sauce was good.

Walk up counter only. Standing room only and no seating.Island bowl special is a lot of food for 12.99$. Entree, 2 large sides and a can of soda. Easily shared between two people.The curry chicken has great flavor but a lot of bones from being stewed all together.Rice & peas (beans) are black beans & rice cooked together, while the mac and cheese tastes like tons of shredded cheddar and buttered noodles. Definitely no box or liquid cheese there.Id like to try the jerk chicken, plantains, collards, cucumber salad & potato salad next.

I was charged $30 for the jerk chicken platter. I went with it, hoping that it would be the best jerk chicken I’ve ever had but it was dry, pasty, and overcooked. What else got on my nerves was that the menu price said $15.99 and I was overcharged tremendously. I will never eat here again, and I recommend that you save your money and go to a different establishment.
