I ordered the Curry Chicken with rice and fresh coleslaw for $5. I was pleasantly surprised at how yummy the food was. This place has been here for a long time, Surprised I haven't stopped in sooner. I stopped in because I saw the sign offering curry chicken for $5. Also, the Jerk Chicken is perfect!
The food was a bit different than I expected, as I'm used to Indian curry chicken. This is the Jamaican version of that, minus any spice. Also, the chicken is with the bone in. That caught me by surprise, but not a deal breaker for yummy food. It's very saucy without being messy. I will definitely stop back and order this again.
If you're driving her, there's street parking only.

Please clean this restaurant. It’s filthy. The food needs more seasoning. It’s a NO for me.

Without a doubt the best jerk chicken I've ever had. It's so good I can't eat any other jerk chicken now. Nothing compares. Very friendly people too.

As a Jamaican from NYC, this place is amazing! It's been so hard finding something near authentic. The owner makes all the food herself and it's to die for! As long as I am in Buffalo, she will be the only Caribbean food I eat!

This is the only place that I used to enjoy getting Jamaican Cuisine from. However, for about the past year their hours are asinine. They are closed more than they are open. Their hours don’t match what’s on google. I have driven there on numerous occasions thinking they’re open and they are closed. The food quality has also went down. The rice is either dry or soft and overcooked. They give you less chicken and a whole bunch of rice with the Jerk chicken meals. This honestly is not proper business practice. People want to support your business and to not hold yourselves to a standard to at least have your doors open to patrons on a consistent basis is very disappointing and sad. I don’t think i can continue to support this business.

I am giving the food a one because I ordered brown stew chicken and it didn't taste like brown stew chicken. It tasted like chicken with brown gravy. Also I don't like the fact that they use chicken legs and thighs instead of white meat, and if they do use white meat, they didn't specify when I ordered it. The cabbage was crunchy and the gravy was over the race so I didn't eat any of it.

I’m over it. Like when tf are they actually open? It’s ridiculous at this point. I tried Thursday 8/17…didn’t answer so my stupid self drove there on lunch break thinking maybe they were too busy to answer and yep…closed even tho google said they were open. It’s Saturday and I just tried calling again…google clearly says they’re open…no answer. Smh. Yea kalypso getcha ish together please. People actually wanna spend money with you. And these random hours and long periods of closing makes me question the integrity of the food/ingredients atp

I give this restaurant 5-stars! I tried to do with the Stars on the app, but it wouldn't let me give it five stars the staffer courteous and helpful I recommend it to anyone who like Caribbean food!
