Small clean establishment. We ordered the jerk chicken and salmon. Everything came quickly and was tasty. I thought the salmon was a bit dry. The biggest downside for us was cold air coming from air duct over our table. AC in late October? Great service even with the restaurant filling up as we entered and it appeared to have one server.

If you're going to close for maintenance, make sure you report that on Google so people don't waste their time driving to the restaurant for it to be closed when it says open on Google.

Went while visiting Frankenmuth. Wasn't sure how a Caribbean restaurant in Frankenmuth would be, but was very happy we tried it. The food and the server were fantastic! I had the Brown Stew chicken with sides of Island Style Potatoes and the Festival dough. My wife had the Jerk chicken which came with rice and beans and sauteed cabbage. We also split a side of plantains. We were very happy with everything and would definitely go again when in town (I want to try to Curry goat).

Our food was excellent, Alisha our waitress was pleasant, friendly, and efficient . The carrot cake was the best we’ve ever had! 5 stars for everything. PS The owner came by to make sure we were satisfied with everything also. A wonderful dining experience!

Servicewas slow. We ordered goat curry, which was ok. Chiken tenders, plantain, festival and potatoes. Quantity was very less, potatoes were literally 4 small slices of potatoes with cheese drizzled on top. Disappointed with the place.
Vegetarian options: Only sides were veg, no other veg options

O my Gosh I found my little piece of Heaven. I love this place not just for the Caribbean cuisine but for the husband and wife who own this fantastic restaurant. My wife had the jerk chicken and I had the whole wings with jerk dry rub. Oh my and you must have a Patti and Ting to drink. If this isn't a bit of Jamaican culture I don't know what is. This is the place where they make you feel like family. They are the real thing. You must have one of their deserts . My wife and I returned to have breakfast there and that is another story of heaven. I honestly love this place and the whole family there. They make you feel special. I will return! Sorry for the pictures but I couldn't wait to start my meal

Tried this restaurant for the first time last night, and already planning our next trip back! Tanisha provided excellent service, and the food was phenomenal! The jerk fries were amazing, and the salmon was some of the best I've ever had. Now I need to try the jerk chicken and oxtail...

This review is not spam* I was really excited to try this place. After living in Chicago for 16 years, I know authentic Jamaican food when I have it. This place fell really shorty from my expectations sadly.
I ordered the chicken stew which is a traditional Jamaican dish that is exactly what it’s called, a stew. When my food came out, it was not chicken stew and I honestly thought I ordered the wrong thing.
I was served pieces of chicken with sauce poured over the top-not stew at all.
When our server came back, I told her that I received the wrong item and that I meant to get the chicken stew. I explained what I wanted, the traditional chicken stew and she replied “most people think it’s that, but it’s not.”
I was super disappointed that she didn’t explain that to me when I ordered. If people commonly order the wrong item, the server should explain that. I was also a server while living in Chicago.
It was frustrating but I was so hungry that I didn’t return it for something else. The food was good but it was not authentic Jamaican. It had no spice, at all- and the sauce tasted more like bbq than jerk.
I can tell that the restaurant is catering to the locals instead of being true to the Jamaican culture. Understandably, but if you want real Jamaican, this is not the spot.
The service was forgetful and lacking over all. The chef didn’t come and talk to us even though we clearly had an issue at our table. I say this to say, I will not be returning which is disappointing because I truly love REAL Jamaican food.
****this is not a spam review. I updated my review, and it updated the date. I never deleted anything. My initial visit was in July and I updated today. There would be no reason for me to spam this page. Just warning people that it’s not authentic. You have no record of my visits because like I put in my review, the cook didn’t come talk to us even though we had an issue. Lol I’m spam. No just an honest eater.
