“The minute I realized I was in the area I made it top priority to get there and when I did that’s when Heaven opened up to me. Yes I was blessed with the words to say, “Oxtail’s please!” With a big smile and loving personality the woman taking my order walked me through the sides. I must say that it was very hard paying attention due to the great smells of other very delicious meals being prepared. The atmosphere is so peaceful and very helpful, as I became excited to taste the masterpiece that was being produced just for me. So as I was called up to collect my meal all I could think about was eating, and yes you guessed right I didnt make it back to work however I pulled over in the parking lot and devoured the delicious food. Thank you Taste Buds for the very wonderful experience in food heaven“

“Let me get straight to the point....This is the best Jamaican food I've ever had.Period.The oxtails fell of the doggone bone y'all!!!And they were seasoned masterfully. Somebody in that kitchen knew exactly what they were doing! At other restaurants, they usually add too much clove or one spice is dominant above all others. The seasoning on these oxtails was perfectly balanced. The rice and peas were absolutely delicious. The rice was delightfully chewy and ever so slightly sweet. The shredded cabbage had the perfect mix of crunch and spice.And speaking of spicy, let's talk about this sorrel. I've never had sorrel with so much ginger. This drink has some BITE baby.... get you some of that!!The beef patty was flaky, a little spicy and very good. There was a little too much crust (or maybe not enough filling) for me, but it didn't take away from the taste at all.Aside from the incredible food, young lady behind the counter was very nice. Jamaican spots are not really known for their hospitality but it was great to get a plate of incredible food, minus the attitude.Aside from a few seats inside of the restaurant, there is also a small bar as well as a seating area outside with a fire pit. I might have to come back and bring my girls.This spot closes at 8:00 p.m. during the week (9:00 p.m. on Saturday), so make sure you get here in time to get you a plate of this deliciousness.“

“I'm not sure why this place has such a terrible rating but I really didn't think it was that bad honestly it was actually pretty good if it wasn't for the very bland cabbage more on that later Here's what ended up getting Goat curry: excellent. When you get goat it will be full of bones but they didn't just give bones they gave lots of meat and gravy and I had no complaints it was cooked extremely well and goat is very hard to do well kudos to irie Cafe lol Roti: I do find it confusing that they called it roti because in my parents culture, Indian, which is where these type of food originate, the thing that they served is not considered roti but called dal puri So it is bread with a stuffing. It's excellent but was not something that I was expecting to eat with the goat curry nevertheless I have nothing to complain about it because it was excellent One of the major gripes I have as you'll see with the picture is that they put the roti underneath the goat curry and I would have preferred to have it wrapped in foil separately so that I could tear it up as I like. Maybe that's how they eat it in the Caribbean but that it just was something I didn't care for. Cabbage: extremely bland and tasteless. I couldn't take more than two bites of it. Not that I threw it away of course why would I do that? I'm going to have to modify it with my version when I revamp it but that's something I think they really need to improve on Sorrel drink: excellent I love it I would like to buy more of it if I could lol You order at a counter and it's kind of like cafeteria style It is excellent. The guy who's at the counter is very personable and friendly. Price I think is a little bit hefty however you do get a good quantity of food. I paid 30 bucks for all of the above Parking is freeing a lot. Ambiance is nice. I did not use the bathroom but I did eat inside and it was clean I wish that they had more readily available access to utensils Overall I think this is a win .I'd come again.“

“This is my second time here, and the food was good. I tried the doubles and the curry chicken Roti. The doubles were perfect. They were as soft as a pillow with the perfect bite. The pepper sauce was definitely spicy but brought great flavor to the dish. Either way with or without the pepper sauce, it will still be good. The curry chicken was seasoned beautifully, with the roti being huge. This was the perfect meal for me. I'll definitely go back.“

“The service at this restaurant is exceptional, from the moment you walk in to the very end. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that their customers are taken care of, earning a solid 10/10 rating with service. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with soft lighting and a simple yet classy interior design spread out over two levels.We tried a variety of cocktails and starters, including cassava fritters, pork paw, and jerk wings - my personal favorite. Other starters such as Aloo and Channa Pies and Callaloo soup were also delicious. For my entree, I opted for the oxtail with coconut rice and plantains, although it was tasty, I have had better oxtail elsewhere and found the flavor to be a bit underwhelming.Overall, I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try as the service and ambiance alone make it worth the visit.“

“Came here on a whim because I had a taste for some Caribbean food and lamb chops, and I was not disappointed. When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by the staff and the premises was nice and clean. I ordered the lamb chops, rice and peas, and greens and cabbage. I also ordered the deviled eggs with shrimp as an appetizer. Though the price was a bit high it was definitely worth it. They brought my appetizer out before the entree which I must say is important to me. The deviled eggs were amazing! I got 5 of them and good sized shrimp with jerk sauce. I could eat a dozen of these!! Next the lamb chops. They were okay, tons of flavors the only thing I can say is I wish they were cooked medium/medium rare but that may be on me for not asking. These were cooked closer to medium well, which wasn't bad but not my preference. But the rice and peas were great as was the greens and cabbage. The portion sizes are good (not too much and not too little) Overall, my meal was satisfying and I would return. The staff made sure I was good (also clean bathroom!) Check this place out!“
