I wanted to like this place so much more! It's close to home and very well presented. Very affordable especially the lunch menu but the texture of that chicken was not it for me and the flavor was not the stew flavor I'm use too even the color threw me off. The service was excellent especially with it being so busy and only one person behind the counter. It's a small store front no tables and very clean inside. I'll try again and order something else from the menu.

The best Jamaican food in the area hands down. I tried their oxtails, rice and peas, brown stew chicken, ackee and cod fish, plantains. These dishes were so delicious, the rice was perfect. The meat was tender. Plantains perfect! The service, you get such a warm welcome and the store front and behind the counter is so clean. I enjoyed the food so much and had to let everyone know. Stop in for breakfast, lunch or dinner!!!!! Tasty, delish!!!!!Kid-friendliness: Small size available for children and the brown stew is soft and not peppery. Perfect for the children to enjoy!!!!

Their food is so well seasoned! Everything was delicious! Only disappointment was that they had run out of a few items, but understandable at the end of the night. Highly recommend.

Visiting my family in Queens for a while and this was my 2nd time getting food here. The food is really good but the kindness and pleasant service far outweighs the good food.

Rice is good . J*** chicken is a 6/10 in my opinion. Lacks spice and flavor

Very good Island food. I've had the jerk chicken the most. Good Mac n cheese (macaroni pie)

Being a vegan for more than 20 years I have been on a quest whenever I go to find the ultimate veggie patty. Look no further. It’s here at Safari. This quaint take out spot pleasantly surprised me with the flaky crust, tenderly stewed seasoned to perfection, mouth watering veggie patty. I might have to quit my day job and join their ranks just to learn how it’s made ?Make your way there sometime soon fellow veggie lovers and when you do hit me up and the first one is on me. I’ll cash app you! Harambe??
