To tell you the truth my jerk lady was out of town that's how I went there, but the chicken was so dry and burned, maybe they should try doing jerk pork cause the chicken isn't cutting it the lady was very nice I went for chicken so I can only rate the chicken

They usually say when the Jamaicans are rude, the food good, but this statement doesn't apply to this restaurant today or no day. I nearly walked out of the store when I encountered the rude cashier, and Ishould have. Likkle brownskin girl with the glasses! Nobody force you to work! Quit or deal with the job properly until you find better. The lady told you repeatedly she want a small, and when she ask you a question, you just look at her rude as you were giving her your change. When the customers talking to you, you ignore them. When calling a customer for her food, you just say here you go and stand there as if anybody know who you talking to. If she never turnaround, and ask, she wouldn't have know. You have to do better!! Customers don't pay to be mistreated, Especially your own Caribbean people.Furthermore stop serving dem dry up plantain . Switch them out our make a fresh batch. It's unfair to pay so much for food, to be served dry up burnt plaintain.Other than that the food alright.

I go every thursday night. The food is delicious. The staff are all very polite, so I'm surprised at the negative reviews. I've had nothing but great experiences here and the food is well worth the visit. Give them a try.

They have fell off after all these years of coming here I've had bad service B4 and great food but to receive both is just outrageous. And disrespectful on every level. So the server of this location gives me rock hard plantains that have been over cooked and hardened to the point I almost cracked a tooth after I asked the server why would he give this to anyone who comes here to eat the man just looked at me rolled his eyes then looked away like I wasn't even talking to him. So I said you should be ashamed of yourself to give anyone food that can't be eating. Smh. I will never step one foot back in there never again. And I don't think any one should. The food is awful and so is the service2 thumbs ?? down. Waste of my money. To top it off. I also paid for a festival bread that I had to ask for after my meal was done. Smh oily dry on the inside just bad all around
The j*** chicken was dry and underwhelming in taste. The cashier taking the orders is rude and impatient. The place looks run down and I doubt it can pass any health inspection.

This is my 2nd and last time ordering from this cook shop (it's an insult to call it a restaurant). I ordered a small curry chicken with rice and peas...the chicken had the color of curry but the flavor of bland chicken. The rice and peas were made with just water, rice, and peas.. absolutely flavorless. Not worth buying...garbage worthy.I was in the area again, and someone in my group wanted jerk chicken and fish. The chicken was unseasoned and thrown on a grill, the BBQ jerk sauce was the sweet baby ray's, and the actual jerk sauce was watery and tasteless.The fish was washed and fried. Not even the onions had a good flavor. The cook shop is located in an area where seasonings can be bought if their regular shipment doesn't come in time. Dem need fi learn fi cook or close the shop all together. This food is good to/for people who don't know how Jamaican food is prepared and supposed to taste. The most basic flavors were missing: thyme, scallion, pimento, garlic...this hole at the corner is a disgrace and disaster. Neva again
