THE FIRST EMPIRE

They talk about American people and make you feel uncomfortable. Most of the time the workers are sitting in there getting drunk and playing cards. They make up prices as they go along, depending on if your American or not, or if they like you. The worst customer service I ever had in my life. The place is filthy, I don't know how they passed health inspection they must have paid the inspectors off. The place is ran by a bunch of alcoholic that look over worked and under paid. It looks like they don't wash there hands after using the bathroom.

Ordered food via Uber eats. I should’ve known better because great Jamaican food is hard to come by in Jersey. This food was awful !!! As a Jamaican person I am shame that this establishment is really selling this type of food. The Oxtail were fatty and uncooked. The food has no taste just damn nasty !! This is not Jamaican rice and peas!! This place deserves zero stars.

I’m not gonna lie, whoever says this foodIs good doesn’t know good Jamaican food. The jerk chicken is not jerk at all, the oxtail had a funny taste as did the rice and peas which were flavorless. Food didn’t taste fresh at all.. I highly doubt they’d pass a state inspection.They were nice and are likely getting by because the locals don’t know any better.

I love this small gem because the food is delicious! The oxtails is my go to order but I have also had the bbq and jerk chicken. The favors of everything here I have ordered is what you would expect from an authentic Jamaican restaurant. Only thing that could improve is the interior. This is definitely a take out place not an atmosphere that invites you to dine in.
