The food here is still tasty but the portion sizes aren’t adding up recently. There is no meat on the chicken, beef, or oxtail dishes. I’ve been getting a few small pieces of bone and that’s it. Sad part is the flavors of the food are great. This place used to serve normal portions but recently they have completely fallen off. My whole order is rice!

Excellent spot to get your Jamaican cravings.
I was indecisive and the staff helped me pick a delicious meal. Tried the patties, plantains, rices and peas with jerk chicken and Mac and cheese! Delicious!

Amazing!!! My cousin suggested this restaurant and I've been hooked ever since. The place is clean and the food is actual Jamaican food, nicely prepared and the employees are very nice. They are not stingy with anything as in I've been to many Jamaican restaurants this one has topped all of them. They are not stingy with the meat.
My suggestions are red pea soup, stew peas, curry goat, chicken soup and oxtail.
