The jerk chicken entree with rice and peas, plantains, and callaloo are spectacular!! I will definitely be back

Amazing

This was the worst food I've had in a very long time. I got the Oxtail dinner with cabbage and macaroni pie. I had 2 extremely small Oxtail with no meat at ALL. AND 3 of the toughest Oxtail with barely any meat. It was atrocious. The cabbage was fine but the macaroni pie was also very disgusting. I also got a side off jerk wings that were very tough and dry. The jerk sauce had a weird taste. I spent 31 dollars on food that was barely edible.

Normally is full of flavor but it seem to be getting worse. Lost half the flavor and half the ingredients. My rice and peas have no peas. My garbanzo and potatoes, just potatoes. I never get my plantains anymore or anything to substitute.
