I LOVE THEIR FOOD! I dine in, take out and service is always on time and food deliciously fresh. The atmosphere is very friendly. Thank you so much for your service for me, my family and friends.
I’ve been looking for a good Caribbean food spot near NYC, and I think this may be my new go-to spot. Best food I’ve had in a while, jerk chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Everything I ordered was amazing. I would eat here everyday if I could! Lol. 10/10 would recommend.

Food was delicious! I appreciated and very much enjoyed the vegetarian options. My friend enjoyed her curry chicken as well. Selene, our server, was an absolute delight! Decor is utilitarian but the other patrons were happy and enjoying themselves as well.Walked in randomly after a visit to the Brooklyn Museum. While chatting with Selene I mentioned that it was my good friend’s birthday. Selene later found a moment to subtly ask me if my friend liked cheesecake, I nodded. Not only did Selene come to our table with the most delicious slice of pineapple cheesecake but she subtly asked the other 3 tables to sing happy birthday before she approached our table. It wasn’t in a cheesy chain restaurant kind of way, but in a very sweet, good community way. I knew the cake was coming, but I did not expect that extra level of effort from our beautiful server and it was such a lovely touch. My friend was totally surprised and at first didn’t even realize everyone was singing to her. Ha! Thank you!This is now a destination spot for me, as I don’t live near the restaurant but just joined the Museum. We didn’t have time to pop into the lounge next door, but it looked like a good vibe and plan on trying it next visit to the neighborhood.Vegetarian options: I had the curry tofu and beans which came with a side of rice and steamed vegetables. Delicious! Nice portion size. I love roti so I added a side of that as well and it did not disappoint. I walked in very hungry but went home with leftover.

Absolutely the best chicken I’ve had in weeks. So flavorful, falls off the bone.
The food is sumptuous and delicious, the ambience is good with a clean inviting atmosphere. The staff is most cordial. Their sorrel drink is so delicious. I would definitely eat there again ?

I do not mind paying $30 for good oxtails...these were not good. They were tough, they taste like they were cooked with ketchup or bbq sauce and a lot of sugar. Plantains were dry and no flavor... The rice was too sweet and mushy...too much coconut and I LOVE coconut. The cabbage was salty. Not worth it and I honestly can't see how the reviews match what I had...it was a takeout order and I can say I will never be back. My search for good oxtail (better than mine) continues.
