Opened promptly at Noon, as the door sign promised, and ready to serve. Everything; the premises, the staff, the food area, was very clean! The chef owner was pleasant and, as for the food itself: nicely cooked, good portions and tasty without being "spicy hot."

Really great place with incredible food. I’ve tried a little bit of everything and the food is always very well seasoned, and home cooked like it should be. My favorite is the pepper steak but the classics like jerk chicken and oxtail are really great as well.
Friendly owner and staff. Some sit down room but most carry out which I prefer instead of dining in.The owner made my food and he was cool answered my questions with a smile.They do everything assembly line style so you just tell them what all you want. Rice and beans with protein and then choose your toppings. Price was good for portion. The jerk chicken and pork were amazing. The chicken was marinated and can stand by itself for its flavor. Beef Patty's were good as well. The plantains and (I think he called them) dumplings were amazing. Check it out

Parking: Large parking lot. Dinner for 3. Prices are not bad for what we had. Very clean and neat inside the restaurant. People were very friendly. I will be going back for the goat dinner. I had the Twist Buffet Bowl. It consists everything on the buffet. It's a lot of food and very seasoned. ??

This is some of the best food I've had in years, it's a hole in the wall next to a closed down smoke shop and my god is the food out of this world. I got the jerk chicken and I couldn't help but devour the entire thing. Its a lot of food for super cheap, I was out with someone and after drinks and tip it was $31. Absolutely golden spot, I can't wait to see this grow and flourish.
The food was great a long with the service. I had the Buffet bowl and loved it! I will be back again.

Awesome service Good food. Fresh rice and Cabbage. Meat was seasoned well. Love the owners they where very nice people and friendly. Good deals as well.Kid-friendliness: Very nice and friendly.
This place is such a hidden gem! It's a small place, tucked away in the corner of a plaza, but it packs a big punch of flavor! Their bowls are a great value and the meats are amazing! I have enjoyed every option I've tried, but the ox tail is my personal favorite. And don't forget about the plantains and the dumplings! You won't walk away hungry, that's for sure!

My first time at Twist, came with co- workers for lunch. I had the Jerk Chicken Mac n Cheese bowl with all of the veggies! The chicken had the most delicious flavor and seasoning, grilled to perfection...creamy mac n cheese...authentic Jamaican veggies.There is so much food, I just finished my 3rd meal from the bowl. I can't wait to try other menu items!!

Been a while since I've found a new delicious Jamaican restaurant in town. Great priced and well portioned Jerk Chicken Bowl. Food was delicious and staff were very welcoming. The only disappointment was I drove past this place so many times before I stopped in!

I love this restaurant! Tried it for the first time for lunch yesterday. I got the Jerk Chicken bowl with everything on it and WOW ? Everything was delicious and flavorful, and great texture. The beef patties were also very yummy. Special shout out to the oxtail gravy, absolutely mindblowing. I can't recommend this place enough! They have a lot of specials and it's very affordable. Portion sizes are generous. The staff is lovely. I was greeted with "Welcome to Twist!" when I walked in. I'm very excited to return!Wheelchair accessibility: No steps at the entrance
