The ABSOLUTE worse Caribbean food I've ever had. On top of the HORRIBLE SERVICE. Ordered the brown stew chicken and got three large drumsticks with hair on them, not completely cooked all the way through. Stew was watering and had no taste. Veggies had no taste and looked to be out of a can.

The worst Jamaican food I ever had. The curry chicken taste like it was boiled and the curry sauce was thin.

I usually look at reviews before I go to new places. For some reason I didn't, and I really regret it. I can usually get through food I don't care for, but I took two bites and threw the rest away. $15 wasted. I got the curry chicken meal, and it came with rice and peas, cabbage, and plantain. The chicken: I asked for a small, and they gave me 4 WINGETTES. They weren't tender and the gravy was watery. The rice and peas: absolutely flavorless. The plantain: you can tell the plantains weren't ripe before they fried them. They were so tough and dry.'the cabbage: it was shredded nicely. It was just okay, again lacking flavor. The best thing was the service. The cashier was very nice. I for sure will not be back

Poor food, poor service. Restaurant has tons of menus printed but then when you pay for your order they tell you that the menus are old. Asked for Goat and plantain, was charged for fish because "goat and plantains aren't in the system". Received the order, it was 2 tiny pieces of goat all fat and skin and dry plantains. Asked for money back, they say no refunds. Asked for the manager that the women pretended to speak to when I asked for refund. She tells me that they are in a meeting. This place is a JOKE. Oh I wish I had taken a picture! The place was empty. And doesn't look well patronized, which, I should have noted. After my experience I can see why no one wants to spend money there. Just awful! Poor customer service. Why??!!

Ordered oxtail and goat combo. Received a heavy plate of bones, fat, and rice. The gravy on the rice ended up being my meal. $20 bucks for a plate of rice with sweet gravy. Not happy at all.

The authentic Yardie taste wasn't there, only got a Tablespoon of Veggies! Curry Goat gravy was watery, ordered chicken patty and got a veggie patty, rice & peas were overcooked and mi coco bread was dry and stale! I must admit staff was friendly, but need new cook !

This food is terrible, no seasoning doesn't taste like Jamaican Food to me! Curried chicken is bland , rice is hard and clumped together. Loos like they gave me the bottom of the barrel. NEVER AGAIN!!!!! Tried To Give It No Stars!

Worst food and service I've ever had in my entire life. Don't go here. Go to the other local Tropicanas with actual Jamaicans. I ordered curry goat and roti and they gave me a rubbery microwaved piece of roti and little scoops of pure BONE. I cannot believe she looked in my face and gave that to me. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt (although frustrated) and try it when I got home in case I was mistaken. I also didn't want to cause a scene in there because I was getting frustrated with the server. It was the short African woman with a short afro. Literally ate 2 tiny pieces of goat off the one piece that actually had a little meat on the bone. What kind of server gives that to somebody who is paying $15 for their food. The plantain that I didn't ask for was also horrible. And when I called to ask for a refund, the woman acted confused and said the manager will be there tomorrow and she doesn't know what time. Oh and did I mentioned there was HAIR in my food? I'm so upset right now if you couldn't tell. Y'all shouldn't even serve Caribbean food. I hope the manager has higher expectations than what was given.

Parking access is not the best at this location and entryway & going downstairs was done with quite a bit of caution. Items purchased: tomatoes, bell peppers, iced tea, honey Citron tea, shampoo, corn oil, garlic seasoning to name several. Cashier lady was courteous and polite. Take care

Food was not very authentic

I gave this place two Stars only because I never made it through the door I opened the door and the place was dark yet when I look down I saw roaches crawling across the entryway I turned back around and walked out not sure if the food was any good but the first impression left me running back to my car

This was my first time ordering from this establishment and I was very pleased. I ordered oxtail that came with plantain, & rice & peas using Uber eats. The portion sizes are very large and enough to feed 2 people, which is a plus! The oxtail was soooo flavorful and perfect. The rice and peas were kind of bland, but once you add the sauce from the oxtail it gives it more flavor. I felt that the plantain needed salt so I didn't care too much for it, but all in all I will definitely recommend this Nigerian/Jamaican cuisine restaurant.
