The vibe was grrreat..cute spot, but the Jerked chicken was jerk'n not spicy...a little old..Mac & Cheese was bomb.. yams were prepared great.... not sure what was used for sweetness but it was different..cabbage was ok. I'm going to try it again maybe earlier in the day.. When the chicken is fress if the grill. The vibe from the cashier was bomb and enough to make me go back.

service was not really good. Tried sitting in the back but they told me they was about to close and I couldn’t sit there like what. Yams, Mac and greens are ok. Jerk chicken was good tho

Found the BEST Jamaican restaurant!!😋
OH MY! Check this place OUT! The flavor is OFF THE CHAIN!
When you get rice or rice and peas, they offer you the Oxtail gravy. Do yourself a favor and GET IT!! Soo tasty! They even have Jamaican imported sodas! The owner is friendly and the spot is slightly small, but great tunes and atmosphere. They have limited parking so beware of that.
Go early so they don't run out of yams and mac like they had the day we went. We're coming back early next time to make sure we get to try it!

Great food and experience. Family owned business serving up some great food. I had jerk chicken with collard greens and rice & beans (with jerk goat “gravy” on top). Huge serving of delicious food.

They have Jamaican drinks too. I had a soursop drink.

I arrived at 12, the door was locked. I called and the lady who answered the phone expressed they were opening a “little late” today.

I asked, “how late?”

She refused to answer the question and stated the obvious “it’s a restaurant and the food isn’t ready yet.”

She NEVER answered my question and stated that I’m being rude and HUNG UP THE PHONE!

The staff here do not know how to communicate and take fault for their inconveniences and will hang up on you if you assertively ask questions.

I will not return to this establishment!

This place is fantastic. Got the curry chicken, yams and collards. I’ve been to Jamaica, have had friends moms cook for me….this is authentic as can be. Ladies serving are friendly and courteous. The atmosphere is as expected.

Thank you for the hospitality and memories.

Customers service was disheartening was seeking authentic Jamaican food. Was met with unpleasant attitudes from owner and his associates. Inappropriate commentary provided by owner assuming he was cultivating a friendly environment being “funny” and “family like” vibes that accompanied cultural attacks to African communities. This establishment provided no respect to customers and food was mediocre and dry. Do not recommend.
