omggggh I don't know if they have a new cook but the food is Bomb got the oxtails when I tell you it's to die for better than sex. The wings and shrimp is also mouth watering 😋. Love the Caribbean flavors. One of my new favorite spots.

Best Jamaican food outside of Jamaica ! We were passing through the area and found this gem! Locals are lucky !
Food was affordable and tasty, they ran out of oxtail if not I will give a 5 star.
For today service, curry chicken and shrimps with rice and beans am impressed. Meal cost me less than $25.
Portion size is large, if you don’t eat a lot you might have to request for a To go box. 😬

Jerk chicken meat was super tough for both the plate and the side order of wings. The sauce was good but you have to slow cook the chicken just to soften the meat at home because it is too tough to eat.
I didn’t like the brown stew chicken but at least the meat was tender which is why I don’t understand why everything jerk was so tough.
Oxtails aren’t the Caribbean oxtails I’m use to. It tasted like meat in regular gravy. I did like the smidget of spice kick in the gravy and the oxtails were actually tender so it wasn’t necessarily a waste of money but there’s ALOT of fat on their oxtails and I hate fat on mine so I wasn’t a fan of that.
Spicy beef patty is the only thing I have no complaints about. Very good.
rice peas weren’t mushy so that was a plus I just wish that I wouldve did the full oxtail plate to put gravy on it and the cabbage since the brown stew was so nasty
My dad and I agree that we won’t be back.

The service was fine and nice, and I don’t leave a lot of reviews but this was a disservice to “Jamaican food”. There was no type of seasoning on anything I got. The cabbage seemed just boiled with no taste. The Mac and cheese seemed like it came out of a store bought container heated up, and the collards were again flavorless and bland. Nothing even had a pinch of salt. The meat was okay at best. Very disappointed in this food.

Portions are large and food is good. It’s a unique setup with a full bar dance floor Dj and pool table.
Just came here for lunch. Service was friendly. Food was ready quickly.
