THE best Jamaican food I've had! The staff is quick & friendly & prices are very low ESPECIALLY when you consider the amount of food you get. Try the mac & cheese, it's amazing. They stay open very late tooParking: The parking lot is a bit small but I've never had a problem parking more than a minute walk to the door

Jerk chicken is usually better than most here. The goat soup is also flavorful. Dislikes: They are very heavy with the salt when making Fish soup. Today ordered Curried goat and pepper steak 3/22/24. Expensive but not edible...very salty. Seems the owner turned the cooking over to someone who thinks salt should be the main ingredient. Disappointing.

Jerk chicken and red beans and peas soup and the jerk chicken taste just fabulous. You can definitely taste like it just came off the grill. I LOVE that grilled taste! The rice is good, as for the orange stuff I think is cabbage, that taste really goodas well and the soup was awesome. This was definitely a good find especially at 11:30 at night on a Tuesday. As for the price, $20. Not too bad but overall great spot.

Just went there for breakfast I ordered a kidney and cook food everything was awful this establishment has definitely fallen off and the people that they have their are definitely not professional and could care less, try at you own risk was a regular.... But definitely parting ways✌️. Too many other options.... Also one time I ordered the oxtail and these m************ had the nerve to put carrots and potatoes in it to try and hide the bullish you got the right ?..... Straight ?s

Drove 20 mins to buy soup today 1/16/24 the soup was the nasty soup I ever had it was EXTRA salty with no food in it just so so potato. No dumplings, carrots, pumpkin, corn only broth. The worst ever.

The service is friendly however the food (I ordered curry goat) was beyond mediocre at best. It just was not good and the goat was overcooked because it consisted of mostly shredded meat because it had been cooked for so long, meat it had fallen off the bone, and what was suppose to be boneless chunks was looking more like the texture of pulled pork and it was salty. Heck, I make better goat than that. After a few bites, I trashed it, it just wasn't good eating. The veggies were okay although I have no idea why the cabbage had this clearly orange hue... Sazon maybe, who knows.
