“This Jamaican restaurant is a hidden Gem in Covington, GA! Being Jamaican born and raised myself, I take special interest in finding and trying different Jamaican restaurants when I come across them near and far! As of February 2023, and as far as I know, this is 1 of 2 Jamaican restaurants in Covington. Though I haven’t tried the other restaurant as yet, Ms. Gwen has me loyal to her restaurant as her food is authentic and makes me feel so nostalgic! Here are a few reasons why I am loyal to this restaurant:1. The Oxtail is soft, juicy, and seasoned just right!2. The J*** chicken, both the spicy and the sweet is really tasty.3. Her chicken soup tastes and feels like a nurturing mother’s home cooked soup and just-what-the-doctor-orders when you need a soup to help you recover from a cold or flu, which is SOOO needed this flu/winter season. Additionally, my favourite thing about the soup from Ms. Gwen’s is that it is not too salty, unlike so many chicken soups around.Though there are other items on the menu, these are the only items I cycle through each time I go there, as I REALLY like what I like.In closing, each time I eat from Gwen’s, I feel as though I am back home on the island of Jamaica. Thank you Ms. Gwen.“
“Oh my goodness, I love Milo's. I have been in so many times that they know exactly what I want. The food is awesome and the service is impeccable. I usually order two brown stew chicken with steamed rice, cabbage and no plantains dinners. I get the oxtails with steamed rice cabbage and no plantains for my husband. My daughter loves the curry goat with steamed rice and plantains. Whatever you order, I am sure you will love it. By the way, it's mostly takeout.“
“Omg this food is soooooooooooooooooooooo good!! I always get the jerk chicken, but this time, I tried the brown stew fish, and it was !!????? I had rice & peas and plantains with it. The women behind the counter were all really sweet and the one lady was so patient with explaining the different fish recipes to me because I didn't know what some things were since I'm not Jamaican, Lol. I loved my food and the dessert I tried (bread pudding cake). I am stuffed and really happy with the fact that I tried something different! I will definitely give this place more business!! ??“
“VERY GOOD FOOD! The owner is such a beautiful person. She took the time out to have a genuine conversation with me and my friend. Staff was polite, the Chef even came out to ask how the food was. This restaurant is clean and has a great vibe. I'll definitely be coming back and will be referring other people.“

“So believe me I am a man who loves island food. An I have tried many all up and down the east coast plus a few in Jamaica. This spot is Jamaica in GA. The vibes are on point, music food and the art on the wall all makes you feel like you are in jamaica. I went on a Tuesday after 5pm so there was no one there. However they have speakers and a dj set in the corner which makes me think they are live and pumpin Thurs through Sat. The food was awesome, seasoned and hot. I had jerk chicken and you can tell the food just came off the grill. The taste had me shaking my head up it was that tastefull. My plantains where a little dry but they were still good. If you like mac&cheeze try theres its amazing. If I have any followers go try this place asap and Tellem the King sent you. I promise you, you will not be disappointed.I did not get any drinks but they have a full bar. I will be back soon. The only reason i did not give them 5 stars is because i have to see how this place works when there are more people and if they are truly bringing the islands to GA. For now 4 out of 5 stars. ??“
