Its an okay spot in Philadelphia that serves Jamaican food. Sometimes items are out. It seems to do good business and have lunch options. I prob go here 1-2 times per year. The food is alright.
I don't know what happened, but either. They changed ownerships or cooks, but the food is very different. It's not what i'm accustomed from them
First Jamaican restaurant where they have everything on the menu. Got the curry chicken and a jerk chicken platter. Both were overflowing. Ms Anita was so nice and welcoming. I will be back!
