New customer I wanted to try out this restaurants Jamaican food! I got the Jerk chicken meal! It is very good and great portions! Everything was very good! I have enough left over for for lunch tomorrow! Dave was working by himself. I didn't mind the wait everyone was sociable and I enjoyed my experience!

The veg was amazing. I was a little skeptical because it had raisins in it but it added a great contrast to the meal. As for the rest of the meal, the rice was mushy and the oxtails smelled and tasted like cow. No seasoning. Just pepper and cow. However, it was very tender and plentiful. Plantains were great. The dumplin was more of a festival texture with a hint of cinnamon, not bad.

Coming from a much larger city, this is the most authentic Jamaican food you will find in Michigan! I’ve been coming here for years, and have never been disappointed! I drive about 45 minutes both ways just to get the food.

Amazing people! Food was great and we felt very welcome! The guys even gave my toddlers both bottles of water because it was so hot out. The oxtail was delish and the curry chicken absolutely fell off the bone. I will 100% come back

A friend and I ate lunch here and it was a great deal. We both ordered the jerk chicken, and it’s a lot of food for a decent price. There were four pieces of chicken that was wonderfully flavored and practically fell off the bone. The salad was refreshing and the plantains were delicious. The fritter was lightly spiced and really appealed to me. Then, underneath the chicken, there was a thick layer of rice and beans in addition to everything else. I wasn’t able to finish it all, but it was a great meal. The owner seemed friendly and had a fun personality. The interior is fairly basic, but the food more than makes up for it. I’m glad there’s at least one good Jamaican restaurant in GR, and I’ll definitely be back.
