Went yesterday after a long while. Last time I ordered Curry chicken and it was barely any chicken and a bunch of gravy. The prices are extremely high. Went yesterday and ordered a large brown stew chicken and a large oxtail. The brown stew had so much oil in the bottom of the container...the rice was swimming in it. I was only able to eat the chicken. I got oxtails for someone and they complained of receiving 3 small bones and a bunch of gravy. Both plates came to over 50 dollars...all for nothing. I won't come back again...I feel like my money was stolen twice.

I frequent this location often and always order the oxtail; they are delicious! The lady owner is very accommodating. The establishment is clean, with great music. Highly recommended ?

Great experience to dine in with my family. Went there for the first time and the owners were very welcoming. The jerk chicken had a great grilled flavor. Underrated restaurant. Hope more people can experience it

The owners are very pleasant and the food was really good. I had the curry goat and I will definitely be going back for more.

I called to place an order for a pick up, a very rude lady answered the phone. No customer care or any kind of manners. I ended up telling her to nevermind. Please don't have these kind of people making or preparing your food. Stay away. Lost my appetite just speaking to her.

Disgusting Disgusting Disgusting. ?. Jerk chicken under cooked, peas and rice was bland and greasy, menu with the wrong prices. Later that night, I became bloated, very gassy and nauseous as if I was having an allergic reaction. Never again. I’d give this place zero stars.
They should name the restaurant, PEPPER POT or SPICE ISLAND!!!!!! WAY TOO SPICY. ALL THAT SPICE IS EXTREMELY UNNECESSARY!!!.......All my co-workers REFUSES to go back there because of the HOT PEPPER that ENGULF the flavor. Makes it IMPOSSIBLE to enjoy your meal......So So sorry.....NEVER AGAIN!!!!

About six months ago I stopped here randomly and was rewarded with some of the best oxtail I’d had since visiting the island years back.While a tad expensive, the dishes are authentic, homemade and rather large, yielding plenty of left overs… All pluses in my book.I went back a few weeks ago only to be greeted by a woman who stared at me blankly until I asked her for a menu. I was told the prices are going up so there was no menu. I asked her to let me know that they had and she lethargically started looking at her phone and then after a few seconds pointed to the back area where some food was sitting.Rather bummed out, I left without ordering anything. Not the best front house experience but food in the past was phenomenal so I’m willing to look past the lousy service.

This was the worst Jamaican food I have ever eaten - as well as the most expensive. One medium chicken curry and a large jerk pork with one soda was $48. There are no prices posted anywhere and when I expressed surprise at the total bill I was told that a plate of jerk pork with rice and peas and cabbage/carrots was $25. Yes, you read that correctly - $25.
The chicken was mostly bones with hardly any meat at all. The pork was fatty and chewy. The rice and peas were tasteless, and the cabbage was undercooked and crunchy.
Overall, it was just awful.

I wish I could give the food zero stars. Extremely overpriced food that was absolutely not worth it. The curry chicken was mostly bones and almost no meat. The jerk pork was fatty and the rice and peas were tasteless. The cabbage was hard and undercooked. $48 for two meals and a soda. Absolutely awful meal.
