Absolute gem in the town of Hay River. Everyone told us to try here and I’m glad we did. During our trip we ate here 3x. We tried the red snapper, jerk chicken and jerk wings. Everything was delicious, and seasoned perfectly. Yes, jerk is supposed to be spicy. Big (thumbs) up ?

This is a great spot for lunch. I ordered the Jerk Chicken and it was nice and tasty. Service was quick and friendly. It has a nice atmosphere with a library of books and games on one side. Has a great homey feel to it. I am here for two weeks and can't wait to go there again.

After a full day of field work and driving, this place was a godsend! I got the Jamaican-style red snapper dinner, which is on their dedicated gluten free menu. It comes in a flavorful coconut milk sauce with rice and a salad on the side. There are gluten free meal and dessert options. I was not expecting to find a big-city quality meal (with fresh vegetables!) so far North - I am in love and hope to come back this way soon! Stay great guys ?

Dietary restrictions: A whole gluten free menu available with several meal options and desserts
