This was our first time trying this new spot in colonial heights. It has a nice parking lot and…read moreinside has enough seating area. Furniture is older but very comfortable. We were greeted immediately when we walked in. The white meat for the jerk chicken was too dry for my liking. The sauce was little too hot for me. I usually order my jerk without sauce to get the grill taste I enjoy. The pepper steak was flavorful and better than Queens on hull street. The beef patty was not too flaky like some places (which is a good thing). The cabbage was flavorful and tender. Usually at other places it is not done enough and has no flavor. The Mac and cheese was very good as well. (Like grandma's). The music is great and made me feel like I was on vacation. The daiquiris are on point. I tried the Hurricane and the 190 Octane. They get the job done for sure. They're a must try. I would return for the daquiris and pepper steak for sure.

Also if you want any seafood dish, you have to get there before the cook is gone. I was there at 5pm and was unable to order the snapper which I felt was very early if they close at 8. Their location in Hopewell isn't much better so I'm not surprised in the lack of flavor. May go back and try the snapper. I'll keep you guys posted.

If I could take my time back I would. The waitress was as kind as she could possibly be, but the bar and the kitchen (literally the only reasons to go to a restaurant) were not sufficient to even give a second chance. A childhood beverage was not made correctly (not even the right color being clear when it should have been dark) & all of the food was tasteless. Thankfully there was salt, pepper & hot sauce on the table. We went at about 7 in the evening & they were sold out of fish cakes, beef patties and the macaroni. Two stars because the waitress was nice.

I was very disappointed to almost spend 40 dollars for quarter piece of chicken (large) and oxtails that included 3 bones. (The math ain't mathing). The chicken tasted like it was possibly sitting out all day. The chicken was borderline dry. With some gravy on top of the rice and chicken could have brought the flavor up another level. The oxtail was very tender almost falling off the bone as you pick it up but was lacking flavor (no gravy). The rice and cabbage was eh and got the job done. I'm not entirely sure if I would give this place another chance. Tbh idk if I'm being bias as Jamaica in food up north is wayyyyy better. Pro: tender oxtails, actually having food that I wanted to order as most Jamaican spots run out of food toward the end of the day. Cons: lack of flavor/gravy, small portions for price

I ordered the curry chicken wings and potato waffles, and was given some super dry wings with little flavor over a basket of frozen French fries, looked like they were from Costco. I honestly never send food back or complain at restaurants, because I have worked at many restaurants and understand how difficult the job is and so I'm always very nice and compassionate with staff, but this was outrageous to me to charge $40 for what would probably cost $12 at Wingstop. I spoke to the staff/owner kindly and respectfully asked to change my order saying that this just wasn't what I expected when I ordered it, and they would not allow me to change my order, and said all they could do was give me a couple sides. This just felt very disappointing because my wife had been here before and raved about how good the food was and I feel that a place that seems to understand quality cuisine and service should have known better than to serve something like this for $40 and then refuse to take it back when someone understandably raises complaints.

The young woman at the take out window was the worst I've seen in a long time. She talked and acted like I was bothering her. She was impatient and borderline rude. I thought maybe she was about to leave work and was in a hurry. It was only 7:30pm so I know they weren't closing. I didn't say anything. I paid and waited in my car. The food was ready in the 15 minutes she told me. So I returned to the window and told her my name. She walked away, got my bag dropped it on the counter and continued looking at receipts. No thank you, good evening nothing. Torie D is the name on my receipt. If I ever go back and see her at the window I'll leave. I couldn't fully enjoy my food thinking about the experience.
