I enjoyed their food and I've been here several times. They need to do better with the cabbage but that hasn't stopped me from enjoying the food and service

This place is genuinely terrible. I've been here twice - the first time was serviceable. The second time was inedible. The j*** chicken was disgusting, the oxtail was unseasoned, and the rice and peas were complete mush. Not to mention my delivery order had incorrect sides and was missing an item. The restaurant is truly horrible.

Food was okay, but number for the restaurant does not work and I was missing my patties with the order.
Sarah Caballero
She’s a little rough around the edges but foods great. I had ackee and salt fish. More salt fish than ackee but very tasteful.

The food here was not bad. I've had the pepper steak, and stewed chicken. A friend had the goat. The rice and vegetables on the side were very bland. It's my guess they did that as some people might have issues with too much spice or sodium. It's the best place for Caribbean food in New Britain. There's another establishment in the city on Arch St. I would not recommend. Jackie's beats that place hands down any day. The only issue I noticed is when researching their website and contact/phone information. They need a working number, and if they have one it needs to be accessible.

Run..dont walk to this place. Oxtails dry..lots of loose bones. Rice was so blend it was tasteless. I ordered extra gravy..that never came. Paid $ 27.00. And regretted it. Not recommended. Pix are deceitful.
If they let me put 0 stars I would the food is dry oxtail have no meat just fat, the servings consist of a tray of rice!! Never again will I go back there

Bought an oxtail meal. Oxtail was good, cabbage was good, rice n peas had a great flavor which most don't.

First off, I’m not sure how this is “Jamaican” food. The cabbage was watered down with NO FLAVOR,mac&cheese was dry and awful. The rice had no flavor at all and was dry. My”oxtails” were spicy but lacked flavor, I was sad because they were huge and went to waste with the awful flavoring on them.

The stew chicken wasn't chopped up as should and any Jamaican know that and the rice and peas was orange (the rice should have a pink color from cooking with the pickney beans). It looked like Spanish rice with little to no peas.
