“I can't say enough good things about this Jamaican spot on Allerton Avenue. I've been a loyal customer for two years now, and every time I walk through their doors, they never fail to impress.From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with warmth and hospitality that makes you feel right at home. It's clear that they take pride in serving their community with the utmost care and dedication.But let's talk about the food – it's simply outstanding. I've tried just about everything on their menu, and not once have I had a single complaint. Each dish is bursting with flavor, prepared with love, and served with a side of genuine smiles.What sets this place apart is their commitment to quality. Their ingredients are organically grown and locally sourced, ensuring that every bite is fresh and delicious. And the slow-cooked goodness that comes out of their kitchen is nothing short of remarkable.If you haven't had the pleasure of dining here yet, do yourself a favor and make it a priority. This isn't just a restaurant – it's a home away from home, where the food is made with love for those they consider family.“

“Truly, truly a gem. The food is amazing. The people behind it are somehow even more amazing. Whenever I'm sick or just need comfort, this is where I order from.I can order here when I'm trying to be good on my diet--the Mediterranean salad with shrimp is a favorite, as are the veggie burger (ask for cheddar cheese!) and turkey meatloaf. The lentil soup is also a great choice, and there's a range of healthy sides to choose from too.But when I want a less "healthy" treat (read: most of the time), I'm getting fried catfish or baby back ribs and a chili cheese dog. The food always arrives fresh, and the driver is always friendly. The owner, Rani, answers the phone and is at this point one of my favorite people in the world. She cares and it shows.To end: I brought their cornbread to the ER the day after I ordered it and shared it with other patients. It had a bunch of really sick people joking and laughing after hours of waiting to be seen. If that doesn't tell you how tasty the food here is, I don't know what will. This food just makes you feel better.Vegetarian options: The veggie burger is literally the best I have EVER had. So good a bun isn't necessary. Get the platter with Cheddar on the burger so you can also enjoy two sides.The veggie samosas are part of my order no matter what I get. All the chutneys are fab, but if you made me choose one I think the mango might be my favorite.Dietary restrictions: If you let them know your needs, they do their best to modify or make suggestions. Rani has always managed to accommodate my needs when a heart issue meant I had a very restricted diet.“

“Good food, good coustmure service safe environment“

“Great and friendly service, food was AWSOME! I was surprised to be such a small and hidden place to have this flavor and quality!! My only advice will be for the lights to be softer cause it's too bright and there's too much strong lights, but besides that everything was PERFECT!Nachos were insane and very complete and a biiiig amount, I loved my burger with the grilled mushrooms, everything tasted so fresh and natural. The Oreo milkshake was to die for, 10/10!! ❤️??“

“Food and drinks were amazing. Only complaint is waited too long, over 30 min, for our food. Watched as people who sat after us finished their food and left.“

“Oxtails, j*** wings, Rasta pasta es muy bueno. Cabbage, collards, rice and peas are great compliments to the mains..Prices are extremely reasonable and staff makes everyone feel welcome“
