(I have been going here for years, prior to ownership change. It has gotten worse over time)Garbage restaurant that serves garbage subpar food, plays favoritism and is always out of everything on the menu unless you are one of their buddies. They will ignore you and let other people skip you on line (happened to me on multiple occasions). You'll spare your mental health and blood pressure by not going here.

I went in today and ordered a large ackee and salt fish with white rice. I was told the price would be about $17. I didn’t have cash on me, so I used my card, assuming the price would be the same. After leaving, I checked my account and saw I was charged $28.31.

I called the restaurant to ask why there was an $11 difference just for using a card. That’s unbelievable. I won’t be ordering from them again

The jerk pork was pretty good and well seasoned but a few pieces were tough. The curry shrimp was tiny and had a slight aftertaste. The rice and sweet plantains were overcooked and mushy. But I enjoyed the carrot juice.

The ackee and saltfish portion is terrible. Pure dumpling and banana and not enough ackee and saltfish. Will not be ordering anymore.

Food is great, like the jerk pork is truly some of the best I’ve had but the customer service is nonexistent. And judging by reviews here and on Yelp, it seems to be a consistent issue across the board. The first time I ordered, they didn’t have escovitch (even though it was around 6pm and they close at 9:30) but instead of calling me to ask if I wanted a replacement, they just took it off the order and I wasn’t made aware until after my food was delivered. They also somehow didn’t have cabbage at 6pm so they sent greens and stale plantains. When I called them to find out what happened, the lady I spoke to was very rude & dismissive, telling me that she refunded the fish, which really wasn’t the issue. It was the principle. I ordered two meals and only got one. If given the choice, I would’ve selected something else or cancelled altogether.

I just called today to make sure they have everything that’s listed on their menu and theyre somehow already completely out of Mac, plantains and cabbage. If that’s the case, update your menu! & It took me 10 tries to get through to the restaurant, yall need to do a lot better.

Make some conditions for couriers so that couriers do not wait for 25-30 minutes to come in. I was waiting for my order for almost 25 minutes on July 13 at 2:19 p.m. It seems you did not have many people. Thanks to couriers you also earn money. So make conditions for them too so that they do not wait for their orders for so long!!!!

Vee, your staff very slow, no matter how many people in the restaurant it’s the same slow coach attitude. It appears that you have employees that don’t care about your business anymore. Get fresh new faces who really appreciate their job and really understand customer service.

This morning was my last chance with Vee’s. Between the service and the food, they are not up to par anymore. Everytime you go in there the people behind the counter ignore you, and if you say something about it, you get nothing but attitude. If you don’t like your job that’s not on the customers. This morning I ordered mackerel and it seems like they didn’t clean this mackerel AT ALL! These were just the few pictures I snapped before throwing it out. I wasn’t even halfway done look at all of the bone, scales, AND FINS I removed!!! Once I got to the fin I was done. Money down the drain and appetite ruined.

Visited here in the past and enjoyed their jerk pork but recently had it again and was very disappointed. After waiting nearly and hour on line I received my order . I don't know if it's because I went on a Sunday evening but it was very busy and long line to ppl being unattended to . There was one employee taking orders plus bagging and serving customers all at once which most likely caused the delay . I finally got my order and the jerk pork was burned and dry . If I wasn't already at home. I would have definitely took it back and ask for a reorder or a refund. That said their food is usually flavorful and service is generally efficient when the owner Vees is around only I guess.
