“My wife and I generally eat for five people, we ordered 4 small plates and 2 mains, still looking into dessert. Each dish had its own layer of perfection with unique flavors and exquisite presentation. I’d say a restaurant on its way to becoming Michelin…..bravo! Oh and the ole school hip hop added to the vibe. Enjoyed this dinner date immensely!👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😎😎😎“

“What a gem. This cozy restaurant has everything I needed after a long day. The staff is friendly and polite. The space is comfortable - not too fancy and not too casual. Most importantly- the FOOD. The Salad Tropical was the most delicious salad I’ve had in my life - fresher than fresh with a unique and perfect blend of subtle flavors. I judge restaurants by their pork and the Lechon did not disappoint. Delicate flavorful seasoning complemented by tenderness. I will definitely remember this meal and recommend this place. Easily, I offer 5 stars.“

“We had an incredible night at Omar's Kitchen and Rum Bar. We started with two refreshing cocktails—the Rum Punch and the Ginger Mojito—perfectly balanced and full of island spirit. For small bites, the Saltfish Fritters and Jerk Chicken Wings were packed with bold, authentic flavors. Our mains, the Jerk Chicken and Sorrel Lamb Chops, were juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The Rice and Peas and Sweet Plantains sides complemented everything beautifully. To finish, we indulged in the rich and creamy Cheesecake, the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. The vibe, food, and drinks made it a truly memorable experience!“

“My opinion is 8.7/10. Is it the best Jamaican beef patty I've ever had? No but overall our place that makes handmade Jamaican beef patties with a good overall flavor I recommend it. Best thing definitely has to be the crust I just wish for $3 it was a little bit more meat / seasoning. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.
