Such a great addition to the neighbourhood! It’s refreshing to finally have a Jamaican-inspired restaurant among all the usual fast-food spots. The food is flavourful, fresh, and a much healthier option. I highly recommend the jerk chicken 'loaded potato bowl' — the portion is perfect, and they’re beyond generous with the amount of chicken. Definitely worth checking out!

Came to this restaurant at 4 PM on a Monday and found the doors locked with a flimsy sign saying “fermé mais bientôt ouvert.” Meanwhile, four employees sat inside, fully aware we were outside, and not one had the decency to explain.
Apparently, “soon open” here means “ignore customers like they don’t exist.” Restaurants live and die by how they treat people—this one seems more interested in playing hide-and-seek behind glass than actually serving.

My experience at this restaurant was a disappointment. The chicken in my bowl was not well cooked or properly cleaned. The bowl itself was mostly just rice, salad and onions with a few small pieces of pineapple. Coriander was listed as an ingredient but was completely missing, and overall, the taste was underwhelming. Despite the staff mentioning a new and unique concept behind the bowl, I didn’t see or taste anything special.
My girlfriend and I got a bowl each. I took the Ponpon Jerk chicken and she chose the Yuzu BBQ chicken. As the restaurant is still in its soft-launch, they didn't have enough rice for two bowls so they swapped the rice for roasted potatoes and they offered us a free Sorrel drink.
The chicken in both bowls was very tasty, with great sauces that added depth and complexity. The chicken was slightly charred on the edges, which is perfect for jerk chicken in my opinion. At first, I thought it wasn't spicy enough, but the heat built up as I was eating and ended up being just right. I particularly liked the salad with pineapple salsa : it was fresh, slightly tangy and fruity and added a lot of balance to the whole plate. I'm not used to pineapple in a salad, but it was a very pleasant surprise. As for my girlfriend's bowl, the sauce was even tastier and the potatoes were perfectly seasoned. Her salad didn't stand out as much as mine, since it didn't have pineapple in it. Finally, the sorrel drink wasn't really my cup of tea, as I don't really enjoy cloves. I thought it was a bit overpowering, especially while eating the chicken.
The staff was really friendly and helpful. You could tell the employee who served us was proud to serve the food offered on the menu, which is always a good sign!
As Jamaican food is pretty hard to come by in Montreal, this spot is worth a detour, especially on a sunny day, so you can enjoy eating in the park on the other side of the street. We will definitely come back!
