I was going to meet someone at the restaurant. While I was walking over there, I was drinking a can of root beer. Then, I finished it a few blocks before going to the restaurant. In front of the restaurant, a lady stated I could not come in with an outside beverage, to which I stated I did not have a trash can to put it into. She said ok you can go ahead and order from us. I went to the place where you order food and a white guy with a ponytail not even 2 minutes after yanks the can out of my hand and started yelling at me about my can before I could ask if he could point me to a trash/recycling can.

My husband and I came for Reggae music and to eat good food in celebration of our wedding anniversary. Service was horrible. Food order wasn’t right. Rice was overcooked and sticky. Not edible. When we mentioned we were missing an eggroll, we were told it was “a process.” What process only brings out part of a table order? Twenty minutes later..nothing. We pulled the man aside and his response, “I got you.” After continuing to wait, we approached the bar for our tab. Not only did they charge us for the missing appetizer, but they also charged us for tickets for the Reggae show (which we had already purchased on Eventbrite that no one bothered to check upon entrance. Luckily they took the charge for the egg roll off and the extra charge for the Reggae show. Charged us gratuity, for what I don’t know since we had to continually flag folks down. It’s be different if it were actually earned. We will never return, and it’s a shame because we really wanted to support. Business is poorly run.
Great place to relax and listen to great music. The only problem I had was that one night they had a promotion going for a free shot. It was announced multiple times that night. But my bartender said she didn't know what we were talking about and never mentioned the promotion. I'm not sure why but other than that it's a great place and I've always enjoyed myself
Live band Friday. I wasn't told about the cover charge until I was at my table about to sit down. I was invited and that person didn't know about a cover charge and I asked them. But the band Mo Betta was great.
The food was EXCELLENT and plentiful! The staff was helpful and fun. Adult beverages were pretty spendy, though, especially after paying a cover charge to get in. The ambiance was ok ... not awful, not spectacular. GREAT entertainment. I would have given 5 stars if the drinks were a little less pricey.
Great space, good music, beautiful owners and I enjoyed the fact that there was a parking lot. If you're looking for a great time try the rum punch and other CBD infused cocktails. They also sell beef patties and other food. Attended a Cultural Explosion there which did not disappoint.

Caribbean (St. Lucian) themed restaurant, great atmosphere, food, and beverages. Excellent for unwinding after a hard day's work.
First time there. We went for an open mic night. It wasn't crowded at all. The food was ok not what I expected at all. My chicken seemed over cooked and the flavor of J*** wellllI.....I didn't get that taste. My egg roll was super greasy. I enjoyed my fries the most oh and my drink was good.
We enjoyed the beautiful open concept of the lounge. The Bartender was was so kind. We really enjoyed REAL J*** CHICKEN, CURRY CHICKEN and rice and peas. The Red Stripe beer was cold.

Terrible service! Waited two hours for food. We kept being told that is was coming. Could not get a drink at the bar. They did not seem understaffed. There were 3 bartenders.
Shrimp curry a j*** burger(1/2 lb) all with great seasoning then live music after 9pm on a friday all for under $30
Awesome experience and wonderful family.
We went on a Saturday night. The live music was great. Service was good. Food and drinks were reasonably priced. Very nice laid back atmosphere. I wish the food tasted a little better. The food was ok at best.
Saturday night open mic! A blast! Great, relaxed and fun atmosphere
