My girl paid $18 for a plate of ox tail and rice. The ox tail was good but the rice was so nasty it made her sick.
How do you mess up rice? Throw the whole restaurant away

I used to frequent Winston for years when Winston was in the front and his wife cooking. Over the years things changed. Im sad to see this decline in food and quality. I no longer live in the area and my wife stopped by to grab me some food on the way home. This was probably the last time I will visit. The order was oxtail with provisions. As a west indian person I know its just best to make it your self but there are times when you just want to have good food and not cook. Unfortunately this was not that time. The food was bland, cabbage was not steamed and worst off just did not taste like home. I truly hope they turn things around, if there is new ownership or someone new cooking. Good luck.

Stop by here based on reviews. I wasn't disappointed, lovely smell upon entering the establishment. I ordered oxtail which came with rice and cabbage, all was delicious. I couldn't help myself, ordered two more to go orders and a side of mac and cheese. I live two hours away, so I didn't want to ruin the experience.

I’ve been craving an oxtail platter for weeks upon weeks. So, once I finally had the time to order on DoorDash, I decided to order from here. Ngl, I was a bit cautious beforehand because of other reviews that I read. But, I took the chance nevertheless and I can easily say this was probably the best oxtail I ever ate hands down 😩 !!! As a professional foodie / big back, I rate this a 10/10. The oxtail fell off the bone and melted in my mouth - barely any fat 😍 The cabbage was delicious and the rice & beans were perfect. I also ordered a side of small mac and cheese which was excellent - hella flavor and seasoning. All my food was still hot and fresh when it came and completely uplifted my mood after devouring it … hence why there’s only an after picture lmao sorry. My jaw literally dropped as soon as I opened the platter and I immediately started digging in. 10/10 WILL be coming back for more 😝

I ordered a large jerk Platter, the jerk chicken was oven cooked (not grilled) and the amount of sauce turned my dinner to soup. I didn't enjoy my meal and dinner was ruined!

I asked for oxtails rice and peas with vegetables when I got home, there was no oxtails there. The lady that served the food. She was real slick into saying you could pay for your food now so while you’re paying for your food, she hurries up and put your food in the bag so when you get home, you just have nothing but Rice and gravy and oxtails bones. Be careful when they make your plate. Make sure you’re present and don’t fall for the trick or paying for your food while they’re making it. It was a young girl that’s in there. Overall food is good. The girl service is no good. The atmosphere is OK but the portions of the food is not worth the money that you’re spending.

Worst Jamaican spot. The goat was salty af and dry. The steam vegetables were not it. I also got chicken soup and it was too thick. The Jamaican patty were not as flaky but okay.

Winston’s used to be THE BEST in the ABE area, not sure what happened. Workers are RUDE! I ordered a large oxtail platter and got maybe 4 oxtails, most of it was rice and peas, barely any cabbage and $24 later. Save your money and your time. While I love supporting small businesses, I will not be back, it’s truly a shame. I’m so disappointed.

If you’re in the Lehigh Valley /Allentown PA area and in the mood for Jamaican food , you must come thru to this spot.. from the welcoming customer service and delicious food you can’t miss! Unfortunately I always forget to take pictures of my food! Lol! I had the jerk chicken, rice and beans, cabbage and plantains today and of course it was on point!! I’ve also had fish and oxtails from here and they were all so good!!! They also have the best cakes. I love the carrot cake and strawberry cheesecake.. the best part of it all also is they are very reasonably priced!!! Compared to the spots in Jersey. This is definitely my go to spot when I’m in town!!

Amazing

Very good but please ease up on the rice!! Way too much rice as a filler.

Food was well seasoned

I've been stopping here for years. The food is always delicious. It's nice to get authentic Jamaican food not too far from home
