I’m glad to find this restaurant, since I moved down here from NY I haven’t found authentic Jamaican food until I eat there. The jerk chicken was perfect, come to find out the owners of the restaurant is from my hometown back in NY. Thats why eating their food remind me of the food back home because they bought that New York flavor to North Carolina. I don’t mind to travel
from Greensboro to High Point, the is that good!!! The homemade pineapple ginger drink is out of this world!!!

The lady was very friendly. I ordered my food to go. I ordered the oxtails, rice and beans, cabbage, plantains, beef patty, beet & ginger juice. I also got 2 ginger beer drinks. It was all delicious. The oxtails were thin but very flavorful. The beet and ginger juice was surprisingly good. I will return and definitely recommend it.

Food was amazing! Chicken was moist and flavorful in every bite, rice and beans, cabbage and plantains were all great as well.
I tried the Sorrell, I’m not the biggest fan of ginger but if you like ginger in your teas/drinks you’d love it!
Kid-friendliness: Calm environment, and outdoor patio would be good for kids.

Oxtails tuff, dry no gray and no taste. Jerk shrimp was in gravy( what) and tuff I lived in the Caribbean and this place is not for me. The drinks are wonderful though even though I don't like powdered ginger in my drink I like fresh. The cucumber one is nice. My favorite Caribbean spot is in Greensboro it's a Trini spot with the best curry chicken.

My friend told me about this restaurant and I had to try it. I ended up going with some friends and it was absolutely delicious. We got patties, jerk chicken, fried chicken and oxtails. Everything was authentic and delicious. Each came with rice and peas, vegetables and plantains.
Ordering is a little different. They have screens and you select what’s available. I suggest actually ordering a head and picking it up. If you have questions you can ring a bell. I will definitely be back.

This place was amazing! The food was authentic and customer service was top tier. My family has been to Jamaica many times and this is the closest thing to island food.

This was the worst Jamaican food I’ve ever tasted in my life. I’m from NYC where the Jamaican food is delicious. I was so disgusted, the rice was soggy and the chicken tastes like plastic. I’d rather buy food from the nasty hole in the wall Paradise on Randleman Road. I wish I can get my money back. I think the owners could google how to make real stew chicken. The chicken patty was the only thing that tastes ok.
