I order from this location just about every week for lunch and I can’t say I’ll be stopping. The food is always so hot, flavorful, and filling!
Food was good; however I feel this was overpriced. I placed the order online and picked it up myself. I ordered the ox tail chicken combo with macaroni and cheese and rice and peas and it was $40! And as you can see from the photo, the portion size is much smaller than I was expecting.
Customer service was good and did not have to wait long.

Customers have highlighted the excellent service, with one reviewer describing a "beautiful Jamaican Sister" named Novelyn who provided gracious service. The menu features a range of popular Jamaican dishes, including the delicious catfish, goat, and oxtails, which have been praised for their flavors and tenderness.
