Stopped by on a whim for a quick lunch and was blown away by the food. The stewed chicken and jerk chicken was the best I've ever tasted, and the rice/peas and cabbage were cooked to perfection. The fritters were out of this world with fresh chunks of peppers and onions. Would highly recommend you give them a try!

Jerk Chicken/rice and peas are my favorites! Never disappointed!!! I just CRAVE it! Dennis and his wife Shaun are the owners and are definitely the best people! I truly enjoy the food and all the people there!! Highly recommend!!!

Bought take out and one of the dishes was curry goat roti. First the curry goat was so salty; I gave it to my sister because I have high blood pressure. But she also found it too salty and didn’t want to waste it, so she opened it and did something to get rid of the too much salt. She stated that the curry (should I saw while eating), did not look like Jamaican curry, so she had to add the Jamaican curry while re-cooking the goat. Very disappointed with the food and I have come to the conclusion that there is no Caribbean restaurants in the Poconos that can do curry goat roti. Or not make their curry goat dishes salty - guess they don’t taste their cooking! The oxtail wasn’t salty which was good.

This is more of a take-out place. But the food is amazing. The curry goat falls right off the bone and the rice and peas has the perfect kick. This is a large curry goat and came to $16.96. They have a smaller and larger meal as well.

We had a taste for oxtail and decided to see if our other spot was still in business. With our google search this came up. I decided to read the reviews. The person who comes from Allentown gave us the courage to try this spot. We were concerned that at 3:45 pm the oxtail would be gone. To our surprise they were well stocked and bustling. The food was excellent. We chose 2 xl orders of oxtails with various sides: cabbage, greens, plantains, rice and peas. Oddly enough the cabbage was a little crunchy, but boy was it tasty. This is our new spot. I think the value is good for the price. The pic below is the food before we crushed. The second pic is after we crushed the first meal.

I really like the food there, but they are a little stingy at times. Sometimes being a little more open can be a better service.

I came before and it was ok. But today the rice was under cooked and it is a good thing I was going home because I finished cooking my rice. I put the whole meal in my instant pot for 5 mintues. This will be my last time coming to this place. If I wanted to cook I would have.Vegetarian options: You have work out your own options and of course pay extra like everything else today.Parking: Good

That was amazing too.Had the spicy beef pattie in the coco bread... that was good. Also had the Mac and Cheese as well as the yams. Everything was really good.Quick and friendly strive. We will be back again! Definitely a MUST TRY.Parking: A big parking lot as well.
