I was recommended this place while here for work. I’m glad that I came! The Jerk chicken plate with a side of Plantain was an awesome combo & washed it all down with a Passion fruit juice! The staff had a wonder loving spirit about them & so did the food!

The jerk chicken was bursting with flavor—perfectly spiced, tender, and cooked to perfection. The plantains were a delicious complement, with just the right balance of sweetness and texture. Easily one of the best Jamaican spots in the area!

Great restaurant, food was telicious. Ox tails, rice, and cabbage were great. Ate inside the establishment, the vibe was all carribean and good vibes. Highly recommend this restaurant.
