PRICES ARE MORE EXPENSIVE ! I was really excited to be recommended this Jamaican restaurant as I’m Jamaican and always looking for authentic yard food. I am highly disappointed that the prices reflected online is not the same in the restaurant but doubled. Don’t get me wrong, the food is good. Is it good enough for a large oxtail to be over $40? No. Change the prices on the website so people do not feel fooled coming in to different prices. They are aware of this !!

I rarely ever stop eating food to leave a review, but I just got the oxtail lunch meal here with rice and beans and the plantains and I'm in heaven right now.This food tastes soooo good! Perfectly cooked, very savory, the meat is falling off the bone. Jamaican beef patties are also delicious.And the lady that cashed me out was very nice.I will come here whenever I have a craving for Jamaican food, can't wait to try other options. This is an excellent place.Thank you!

Prices are good for amazing Jamaican food. The small portion looks small but it's loaded with your choice of rice, sides, and protein.

This was my first time at this restaurant. And in the area. When I came in,there were two women waiting to be helped and I was behind them next. After awhile a man came in after me and one of the workers got up to help him and thought it was a good idea to serve him before me. Of course I said something and the worker said oh he was just getting a patty. Well I dont care what he was ordering he needed to wait his turn. Not the best customer service but once I placed my order with the lady. She was nice and bubbly but that doesnt change the fact they allowed someone to cut in front of me just because he was getting a patty. For one no one even asked me if that was all I was getting so either way not the best practices to have as a restaurant. Make everyone wait their turn. It's simple. The food was good and thats the only reason I gave two stars.

I purchased the curry chicken dinner & the whole meal was very bland and lacked flavor. The chicken was moist but it had no flavor. The cabbage lacked flavor. The yellow rice was hard and wasn't cooked thoroughly. I was very disappointed for what I paid. Idk what was going on with the flavor but I'll skip this restaurant going forward.

The best foods that you can gift your body and soul. It’s like walking into your family kitchen. I’m a truck driver from Pennsylvania and I don’t get to go to Livie’s as much as I would like, but when I do, my body loves me for it.

Incredibly delicious food! The curry goat is fantastic! Spicy, but not crazy hot. The staff are always friendly and willing to answer your questions. They even have a small grocery section and introduced me to my new favorite hot sauce. I will definitely be back!

I ordered the lunch special with Brownstew Chicken and Rice & Peas. Sooo good and comforting! I'd just note that the lunch specials are $9 now instead of $5 like one of the featured photos suggest. I still think that's a good deal though for the amount of food they give you!
