The food was cold. Ordered rice and peas with jerk chicken. The chicken was tough and dry. Rice was cold. I would have expected better, especially seeing that people had ordered after me was receiving their food before me.

received my order from this restaurant and I'm sorry but I will NEVER order from here again! I ordered stewed chix and oxtail wit butter beans. The rice n peas and cabbage are so tasteless. Also they gave me 3 chicken back pieces and 1/2 of thigh and covered with gravy to give the illusion of meat!! Just horrible for 1st time customer! Plantains are dry and not sweet I didn't feel like driving today, busy with work but I'll stick with Marie's in Plainfield

The food here is okay and I had no problem until they started charging $28 for one large plate of oxtail!! Highway robbery! And I was not informed of the price change when placing the order.

The food here is really tasty and authentic for sure. It definitely gives a more “At Home” flavor rather than your typical Caribbean restaurant which is a huge plus for me. I’ve come here a few times and they have never missed a beat. It’s evident that they take pleasure in what they do from the consistent standard of excellence they uphold in addition to the amazing customer service from Ms Ann in the front. I’ll be a regular customer for sure!

I love love love this place. Their food is so good and they are very friendly here. The only complaint would be they don't have many options most of the time they never have beef patty, Coco bread, codfish, cakes, bun and cheese, any of those extras that we like on the side they may not have. Their jerk chicken is very good and delicious. Just asked for oxtail sauce on top of the rice. I like this place over the other one in the area Which is also good but much more pricier and they don't give you enough food.

It was ok. Pricey. Didn't seem freshly cooked. Rice was blane. Not a lot of oxtail meat. Customer service was great. Atmosphere was ok. Need better lighting in place.

I didn't expect to pay a lot for a filet, I thought I was getting a whole fish or a platter filled to the top. It's becoming expensive! Anyway I like the cabbage it had a nice sweet taste. Nice experience I guess.

Came here while visiting family. The service was slow but that’s to be expected at a Jamaican restaurant I guess. The patty needs help. It was horrible in every aspect. They need to spring for the $$ and hire someone with more experience making patty. The jerk chicken was palatable but not delicious. The rice and peas was hard and dry but the chicken had a little authentic taste to it. The festivals need to be discontinued. Straight rubber. Not for people with bad or failing teeth or dentures.The star of the show was the mannish water. If I knew the rest of my food was going to be so bad I would have just spent my $35 on straight manish water. Never ever have I tasted mannish water or Jamaican soup this good. I will return for the soup and only the soup.
