Just go somewhere else. It's not worth the money.
This restaurant is one restaurant that I will not be visiting ever again. This is a COMPLETE EMBARRASSMENT to the Jamaican culture. The food lacks so many things that I dont even know where to start. I am unsure who's been keeping this place alive, but they are not cooking with intent to have people returning for more. The curry is like a weird gumpy consistency as the gravy sauce which was disturbing to see. The cabbage was absolutely TASTELESS. I most definitely called the store and told them that they need to figure out something FAST before the business goes under. The food is most definitely spicy like someone else had mentioned as well.
The restaurant was slow to serve food and the kitchen was unhygienic. The Uber deliveryman took two orders from him and the restaurant gave him two bad reviews.
So I called to order my food and the woman on the phone was very rude. She was talking fast and the background was loud so I asked her to repeat herself and she got an attitude like this isn't her job 😔. When I picked up my ackee and catfish it was leaking all out of the bag and there was barely any ackee and catfish in the pan it was 4 big dumplings a plantain with a scoop of ackee and catfish . It was a complete waste of my money. Now my snapper was on point but I definitely won't be coming back here unless she changes her attitude and they learn how to package food .. MAKE SURE YOU CALL AHEAD OF TIME.. THE WAIT IS LONG. I CALLED AND STILL HAD A 20 MIN WAIT
Still my favorite Jamaican cuisine 😋 😋
Please go and try it yourself don't judge it through other people's bad/made up experiences. Food are delicious, but pricy a bit. Services can improve but fair. The atmosphere is very noicy. Give it a try. As a long time Haitian customer I can really vouch for them!

They don’t have cod cakes anymore and portions were a bit small

Went in ordered ackee and saltfish. There was saltfish but no ackee. The ackee that was in the plate tasted as though it was half cooked, the boiled bananas were very hard. The best thing about the meal was the fried dumplings. Disappointed is an understatement of how I'm feeling. My 1st and definitely my last visit

If you are looking for an amazing West Indian place to eat. This place is it. I only ordered 2 things from the menu, and that's only because I can't get past ordering the Oxtails, Rice, and Peas with Cabbage and Ackee and Salt Fish with Food(that's Dumplings, White Yams, And Potatoes) When I tell you it's like a party in your mouth. I ordered food for delivery. This place was recommended to me and I am glad I listened. It's a must-try. RUN DON'T WALK TO ORDER.

I love their Rasta pasta oxtail. If you wanna share get the large one. The small one is enough for one but too much pasta. They do give a lot. I love their Irish Sea moss drink with cinnamon !
