The food was off the charts! We came on a busy Saturday evening, before heading to the Celebration Cinema to watch One Love. We thought why not have it be a celebration of all things Jamaican! We tried the curry goat and the curry chicken. Both had so much flavor! Absolutely mouth-watering. The greens and rice/beans were so delicious. My partner also got their in-house lemonade which was refreshingly sweet. They had a few specials running but we didn't get to try them so hopefully when we go back, they still have them available. The only drawback, The seating area is pretty small so this seems more of a "take out" place but I recommend staying to eat while your food is hot! It was about $30 for the two meals and drinks.

This place is great, definitely will be returning! My son, daughter in law and I loved the food!! My son wanted to go back again before they headed back to CT but just didn't have the time. Definitely worth checking out!
Best Caribbean in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Walking in you’re getting an immediate greeting + acknowledgment. Black-owned and curated in every way.Real authentic Jamaican chefs.Island cuisine bringing some color to a majorly Caucasian-dominated demographic!!! 12/10!
I try to stop here everytime I pass through Grand Rapids, the food is always delicious!

Our first time. The guy behind the counter wasn't lying when he Saud everything is good, you'll be back. We definitely will. Service was great. Very friendly. Food was delicious, well prepared, and out quick. We got Jerk Chicken Alfredo, Goat Curry, and some plantains. Alfredo was the bomb. Cheesy, flavorful, smoky... Chicken cooked perfectly. Goat Curry was really good. A bit of a bite to it, but only to the weak at heart. Goat was tender, spices were great! Plantain isn't my favorite, but there's is good. Best I've had. Total bill was $50 with tip. Not bad considering we will be eating twice on these generous portions. Would love to see them expand to a nice sit down spot. There's a bit of seating, but it's set up more as a to-go spot. Excellent! Give them a try. We'll be back!
