Feels like i just let them scam me. Paid 20$ for a few small pieces of chicken, a scoop of cabbage and 2 scoops of rice. Instead of a jerk chicken plate they should call it a Cabbage and rice plate with a side of jerk chicken because essentially to get full you will have to eat the rice and cabbage because there’s barely any meat on the bone of the chicken in the first let alone added with the fact you’re get 3 or 4 small chopped up pieces of chicken. Just leave them alone and let them go out of business. Chez ali is no longer welcome to St.Louis.

I don’t understand is why they are giving small portions for the amount of money it cost. They used to give a nice amount of food now it’s like they are giving you less. The customer service is horrible now especially when the Indian females take your order. I will not come back here I used to be a loyal customer I feel like I’m making an order and you just giving me what you want. And there’s barely any meat on the chicken she gives us a lot of rice and cabbage and 4 small pieces of meat chopped into small pieces. Smh

Visiting the city and decided to try this place after seeing its ratings/reviews. Well I must say, most reviews are misleading… 2 stars for atmosphere/service. I had the jerk chicken plate: Chicken was VERY dry and awfully portioned yet it was seasoned well. Rice and beans also dry and hard and taste like vinegar (or maybe it was sour).
Needless to say, I will not eat there again nor will I ever recommend this place. Hopefully the next (Jamaican/Caribbean) place I try will be better.

This food was so flavorful. The Yasaa and Jerk Chicken was moist and very well seasoned. The rice and peas were cooked perfectly. The cabbage and fried plantains were on point too!
It’s never a person at the restaurant. They always in the back and take so long to come out had me waiting for a long time

So I had been here multiple times to pick up food for me and my partner since I saw it had good reveiws, I didnt have a great experience the first time and wanted to give them another chance- so I did and they disappointed me again, so this is a summary- I went and ordered oxtails with rice and peas and cabbage both times, I know oxtail is expensive but for 54$ and some change about for 2 plates of oxtail you would expect 1st and foremost a decent amount of oxtail- and 2nd that the oxtail would be cooked well- the oxtail they gave us only 2 big peices each time , with huge peices of fat that were not trimmed, I can deal with some fat but not HUGE fat caps- they were not cooked nearly long enough as the fat hasn't even had time to render/braise- and giving a huge portion of rice which is super cheap doesnt equal money worth for what they are charging, they give small amounts of oxtail and its not cooked well - i really don't have anything positive to say- I was very disappointed and felt cheated for my money- if you want good oxtails go to my maries instead-Needless to say I won't be back.
Got a plate. Jerk chicken, red beans and rice w/cabbage. DISAPPOINTED AND DISGUSTING! Chicken was overcooked and brunt! I’m so sick to my stomach! Cabbage was horrible!! When this place first open with the foundry it was delicious. A friend introduced me. The service and food has went downhill! I would never spend another dime there. I’m so disgusted and sick to my stomach. If my fiancé wasn’t gone with the car. I would definitely went and ask for a refund. I’m so done with eating outside my home. I’m so sick from eating this food! I pray it’s not food poisoning.

The young lady working today was so sweet. She said today was her 1st day. She smiled the whole time. The flavors of the food were amazing. Definitely not what you expect from mall food! My only complaint is that the jerk chicken was dry, and cut into such small pieces, I thought they were neckbones, or oxtails. Other than that everything was great. I really enjoyed the curry chicken. I will definitely be back.
