Great service and overall nice people. Its not of authentic Jamaican spots in the area and their food is amazing!!! Anyone who doesnt like them a hater!!

The jerk chicken tastes like baked chicken drowned in jerk sauce. It had a slight unappetizing smell.

The staff was very professional and courteous. The portions are healthy enough to have leftovers. Well seasoned food.

My main go to spot since I moved back here from Boston. If you know Blue Hill Ave & other areas in Beantown, it's all authentic Jamaican & Dominican food. This is the only spot I found with reasonably priced authentic Jamacian food & great cakes! They got what you want!

The first person of contact (skinny black guy) is very rude very nasty and doesn’t have any compassion. Also, this place can change the price any given time please ask for pricing because they display one price and then they ring you up for another if you don’t check your receipt so once time I asked about the oxtail dinner, and it was more than what it said on the menu. And then he pointed out a very, very small, fine print, saying prices are subject to change it anytime this is very misleading and not a company that I for the people they seem like they are all the money. He doesn’t even seem like he likes Black people at all unless they are Jamaican. The oxtails wer more like “FAT TAILS” and not very seasoned. They are over priced.

This is without a doubt my favorite spot in the Suitland region, but I was shocked by what I received recently. I ordered a salad, which generally costs around $20, and I usually eat at least one of them.All I got was a polystyrene box containing two scoops of shredded chicken and a handful of onions, tomatoes, and carrots.It was just awful in every way. I'm going to give you a call to find out what occurred, but I'm not happy that I'm not sure what I'm getting anymore.

The peas in the rice were hard. The oxtails were only the bones. The patty was old. The coco bread was ok though. It was just terrible! Don't waste your coins!
