The jerk chicken is probably the best in Scarborough. You get that real authentic jerk pan flavour. Plus the rice and peas was on point. Perfect balance of coconut milk with the beans. Everything was A1. I highly recommend it.

I ordered curried goat & received curried Bone.
I ordered boneless chicken & received Dry Grissle.
Half order of Jerk chicken was chopped beyond recognition.
At least it was hot.
Pricey too
Am Not Impressed.

Place is very small and bright inside but the customer service was amazing. We visited from out of town and order when we were a few minutes away and by the time we got there everything was already ready. The guy running the front desk was very nice taking order and was going back and forth making sure everything was ready and proper for our orders. We got jerk chicken, oxtail and curry goat and some patties. Needs a bit more of a kick of pepper but otherwise great eats.
