Best Jamacian I have ever had! Chicken falls off the bone. Rice and Peas are on point! Don't even get me started on the Rasta Pasta. The young lady at the counter is the nicest. so informative. Everyone needs to experience this place.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing! Food quality and flavor!!! I highly recommend that you give them a try. I got take out for lunch and I had several people stopping by my office to inquire about the amazing aroma. The flavor is 🔥!

Best and only goat in the area. Oxtails are fire. Banana pudding best I've ever had. This place a hidden gem. So glad you are here. Rasta pasta recommended as well.

Only reason this place is not 5 stars is because my Mac and Cheese was cold and flavorless. Oxtails were fire and reasonably priced. Fries were fresh, rice and pea were perfect! Great vibes and service!

The food here was not good at all. I came here with my boyfriend. He ordered the beef patty, jerk chicken with rice & peas and cabbage. I ordered the oxtails with rice & peas, cabbage and plantains. It was too salty with no Carribean or Jamaican spice. Also, they did not use red beans. They use pinto beans. It was very disappointing. We will not be back.

Picked up lunch her for the first time and I’m very satisfied. I got the 2 Meats w/2 sides $25 Jerk, Curry, mac & cheese, and Plantains. The meat portion was great, Mac & cheese was not my favorite and the plantain portions could be bigger. Will return again and try different sides.

Fantastic gem of a restaurant! Fantastic food. Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Rasta Pasta, Rice & Peas, and Cabbage. Spicy. Tried the Ox Tail as well. Everything was seasoned perfectly and for $10...3/ meals for me. Will definitely be back. If you haven't been, take the trip...soooo worth it. Delisioso ?

My older brother and I went and ate here today for the first time. Stuff was super friendly and the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend. I got the chicken curry bowl with the pasta and there was so much there I couldn’t finish it all. Will definitely be going back!

The food was just ok, I've had way better quality of Jamaican than this spot especially when the price is this high. Service was awesome tho.

Curry goat for the win! Such a treat in Havelock. I got curry goat over rice and beans with plantains and a beef patty. Everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection, I was especially impressed by the beef patty. It’s basically a Jamaican empanada or fried hand pie but the crust and filling were amazing. I wish I could make my plantains at home as good as they do. My wife tried the oxtails with Rasta pasta and Mac and cheese. The oxtails were delicious but the sides were a little plain and the Mac and cheese was kind of dry. That’s the only reason I docked a star, the difference between the sides I had and hers was quite a lot. Overall I think the food and service (we got takeout) was great. We will definitely be going back.

Dietary restrictions: I am allergic to dairy and they were able to communicate the oxtails are cooked in butter and steer me to non-dairy foods.

Kind of pricey but what isn’t nowadays. Oxtails were tender, Mac noodles were al dente, cabbage looks plain but they were well seasoned. Will go back when craving ox tails!

We got jerk chicken, baked beans and cabbage. The jerk chicken was seasoned amazing and was so delicious!! Nice kick!! The cabbage was seasoned well and cooked well. It also had a little kick and didn’t have to add anything for taste! The lady at the counter was super friendly and approachable and welcoming! They got our food out pretty quickly as well.
