Love this spot, came by in passing while working and it didn’t disappoint. Loved the jerk chicken and the sides with it. Decent portions for the meal. The inside is nice and ordering is convenient through the tablet.

First off, service was fantastic, food was quick and still hot!
As for the food… Not good at all😬. I ordered the oxtail w/ rice & peas, cabbage, and plantain and a plate of curry goat w/ white rice, cabbage, and plantain. Plantain was actually good, the rice & peas taste quite unseasoned, oxtail was nothing but fat, the “gravy” is just oil, and the cabbage was just inedible(my favorite thing on this traditional plate😞).
For the curry goat literally only the plantain was eatin. 🤧
I was excited bc the area lacks good Caribbean food. and as a Trinidadian that has tried Caribbean food up and down the east coast, very, very, very, very, disappointed.

We are so glad we came here for dinner today! Food was delicious, the lady out front is super sweet! I’m actually surprised that the restaurant was not fuller than it was, I did see the majority of customers taking the food to go! We tried the oxtail, jerk chicken, fried catfish, Mac and cheese, yellow rice and the rice and peas and all of it was amazing! Definitely coming back!

Dined in. No refills on any drinks as they all come in bottles. Spent 100$ on 4 small plates. Beef patty tastes like fish.

When I first tried this food last year the oxtails were probably the best I ever had and I’m from the Caribbean born and raised.
But now it’s like they lost the passion for cooking. The last three times I’ve tried to give it another chance the food just isn’t the same. Dry and doesn’t taste as good as it use to.
I’m going to give it one more chance tonight and I hope it’s as good as it use to be and not this new bad food. If the chef from last year and earlier this year left then tell me where they are cooking at now so I can go there and eat.
Drove all the way down there to see they're closed just with a sign on the door saying they're closed. I'm glad you were closed on the Sabbath because that's the commandment of God and we should t be selling Friday night to Saturday night but you're not reliable. Closed on Mondays now? . So much inconsistency this place isn't dependable how they expect to stay afloat?

The food is very over priced. And it wasn't good at all. Terrible experience, the lady was even disrespectful over the phone. Yes give me an email to contact you. Id love for you to make this right.
