Delicious West Indian food served with a smile in downtown Newark. Wide variety of patties wrapped in a flavorful flaky pastry, and the best smoky mac and cheese. Plenty of vegetarian options.

The food is ???, the Mac n cheese is next level and the cabbage is something different- there’s a hidden flavor in it that takes it over the top. Also the oxtail Mac & cheese Patties is top tear. Give it a try you definitely won’t regret it. I am stuffed for only $20 and I got a platter, appetizer and a drink. Plus I was cold and he turned up the heat for me.. amazingggggg run over there now… ???

The food was not warm nor did it taste fresh. I ordered Mac & Cheese with fried chicken. The chicken was refried and still bloody inside.The customer service was horrible and it was freezing inside of restaurant & not clean. The food made my stomach hurt... Neverrrrr

As much as I love supporting my own people. This was not authentic Jamaican food. I was very disappointed and felt robbed! I tried the oxtail patty and stew chicken with white rice. All werent Jamaican, oxtail patty was soggy and don’t have a crust. Stew chicken was not very good and the rice was very sub par.

Had oxtail with rice and cabbage that was nicely seasoned & not over seasoned (so many restaurants make the mistake of using too much seasoning or salt) ordered a side of Mac & cheese with it that was decent, it's worth it!

Jerk Chicken done right!!! Seasoning very tasty, not overwhelmingly hot but just right.Food was served with Great Conversation and a Smile! Not too pricey either.Bonus: The Mac & cheese was honestly delicious. I don’t know what special stuff was in there but it was“Amazingly Delicious”…. I can’t wait to try the rest of the menu when I return to Newark!
