“Enjoyed a delicious meal here the other night, had the Mayfield Falls- the mahi was cooked perfectly and the coconut cream sauce was very tasty! We sat at the bar and enjoyed a couple of cocktails as well and has the absolute best service from Shannon!! She is awesome and I witnessed her handle an unruly customer that night like a BOSS!!“
“Oh my goodness, there's so much I can say about this food. This is the best Jamaican food in town. My first experience with this food truck was trying the jerk chicken, steamed cabbage, and rice and peas at a pop up event. The smell from my plate filled up my car and I was so excited to try it as I had heard so many good things. My initial assumption was correct the food will make you do a little happy dance. You can tell they really care about the flavor and freshness. The rice and peas had the perfect pinkish tint and a subtle coconut flavor slightly sweet and creamy with the perfect mouth feel when you chew, if that makes sense. A savory, buttery, well seasoned steamed cabbage. I don't like cabbage from anywhere or anyone else, this is this the only cabbage I will eat. Then the Jerk chicken is perfectly seasoned with a nice char to it. The spice/heat kind of sneaks up on you. You'll definitely be licking your lips from the heat but also the flavor, it's a very specific flavor that only a select few can duplicate. I've had a few other experiences with this food truck. Ask for the Pesci platter with an Island Breeez, you will not regret it. I've also had the privilege to experience their private catering where I had a real Jamaican breakfast which consisted of brown stew kidney, yellow yam, boiled green banana and boiled dumplings. The food was so filling and flavorful leaving me with energy and not that sluggish feeling. Cooking is really this chef's gift. My favorites from Queen's Island are the pesci platter, the jerk chicken and the oxtail with all the sides. Queen's Island cuisine has top notch customer service they are friendly, communicative and responsive.“
“Amazing food and service. I picked it up jerk chicken for dinner, it smelled so good in my car I couldn't wait for dinner to have a try. Great portions and enough for two meals. I was having a challenging day and Charley King turned that around.“
“On a Friday, I had taken off work and decided I wanted to surprise the wife with lunch. We had been wanting Jamaican food for a few years, now. Since we had been dissatisfied with the last time we had some Jamaican food at a community event a few years ago, and we had given up hope. Then I saw the posts for ISLAND PAN in the mall and decided to grab some for our lunch yesterday at 12:30.First off, I asked for the Curry Goat as I love a good goat curry. Unfortunately, they only had Chicken Curry. The curry was an umami bomb but had 0 spice. I got yellow rice and mac n cheese, which were both flavorful and pasta was not overcooked. The curry sauce had invaded the Mac n cheese, but it made it even better than without it. I ordered the Jerk Chicken for her, with rice and peas and plantains. The jerk chicken was well seasoned and just sweet enough, but it wasn't spicy at all. Rice was not mushy, peas fully cooked and great with the sauce drizzled on it. Plantains were OK, but we may be spoiled from our island vacations, as they weren't anything special.I ordered a beef patty and coco bread, but no coc bread was available. I ordered the cheese patty, but it was not available as well, so I settled on 2 beef patties. I'm not sure if I lucked out or not, but those beef patties were the best thing we ate. A spicy ground beef mixture encased in a flakey crust that was a 10/10 for us.The magic markered food prices weren't what was shown on the internet but I'm fine with that because food costs. The biggest issue we had was food not being available, but for $15-20/person, we will 100% definitely be back because the portions are enough for 2-3 meals. I'll get the oxtail next time and hopefully the goat curry.7.5/10“

“The food at Nine Mile is unique from many other places in Asheville (and NC in general) and I’ve always loved what I’ve had there. The menu is large and can accommodate a variety of food needs/preferences, and I always feel satisfied after a meal there. Last time I went, the server was pretty short and cut me off a few times as I was ordering.“
