This place is an absolute disgrace and should've been condemned yesterday. The food? Cold, rubbery,…read moreand tasted like it had been nuked in a microwave from 1992. Calling it a meal would be an insult to actual food. The sweet tea? A sad, watered-down mess that clearly gave up on life halfway through being poured. Let's talk about the black mold--yes, black mold--on the ceilings and in the women's restroom. That's not just gross, it's a full-blown health hazard. The entire building feels like it hasn't seen a cleaning crew--or basic maintenance--since the early 2000s. The windows are caked in filth, and the air has that special "what died in here?" aroma. We were charged $140 for six people to sit in what felt like a biohazard zone and nibble on food so repulsive it should be illegal to serve. We left after 10 minutes because honestly, it felt like our immune systems were under attack just being there. My sister started having stomach pains within five minutes of leaving. I'm not saying the food caused it--but I'm also not not saying that. This place needs to be shut down, fumigated, and bulldozed. I will absolutely be calling the town, the health department, and anyone else who will listen. Do everyone a favor and close this dump before someone ends up in the hospital.

It was dead, which is always a concern and the food on the buffet was all cold or luke warm. I could tell certain things weren't fresh, like it was turning but they cooked it anyway sort of idea.

I was craving West Indian food and was happy that I found this spot since they had such good…read morereviews. However, when I got there, the prices immediately threw me off. A fried rice with jerk chicken cost $16, which is ridiculously high, especially since I'm coming from Queens. But, I figured that the food was probably THAT good and let it go. As I ran through the menu while on the phone with my mom, the employees kept looking at each other and then at me. When I asked about cookup rice, I received a subtle attitude and saw the workers exchange looks yet again. Needless to say, the stares and attitude I received immediately threw me off as I would have purchased regardless of the price. However, I left without purchasing anything and will definitely not return there. Some advice: Don't give your customers dirty stares and exchange looks with your coworkers IN FRONT OF the customers.

When you first walk in you're greeted by friendly staff and your drink order is taken. You're then invited to partake in their lunch buffet. The selection seemed somewhat decent. I thought that the flavors were good but it was hard to tell one dish from another as they all tasted very similar. Also, the heated dishes were not all very hot in temperature. Some were barely lukewarm which was not the best whilst other dishes were perfectly hot. They were also out of a few items at the buffet. However I am guessing that they put their dishes out in small batches to keep it good. As I looked around, it felt like a very basic and earthy looking indoor dining space. It seemed tidy but maybe a bit tired looking. Unfortunately this place missed the mark for me. I was a bit underwhelmed by their lunch options.
