Best Jamaican food including in Jamaica. As did travel and very selective eater, I make this proclamation with 100% confidence.
Chef Andrew is so personable and cares deeply about using natural ingredients, high-quality foods and absolutely maintains high standards for his food and staff.
Miss D. who is the point of contact has a great smile, is very patient while trying to decide between the many options and makes great recommendations.
Today I had the opportunity to Chef Andrew in person, his philosophy about natural foods being a catalyst for healing and good health was in line with mine and so refreshing and reassuring in my quest for the cleanest eating possible. His way of making a ginger sauce for both natural house-made juices as well as for his food is so interesting- ask him! He also shared with my friend and me a look at the water based all natural vegetable and herb secret concoction in which he soaks his jerk meats for days. This explains the amazing flavor and juicy tenderness despite the meat being smoked with fresh wood plants.
Chef grinds his own spices and exclusively uses fresh herbs which natural, flavorful food.
Some vegetarian options include side, spinach and veggie patties.
meat free collards, cabbage, rice and peas, candy, jams, and amazing mac & cheese.
Another highlight is housemaid healing juices that have interesting combinations, including ginger, Celle, cucumber, lime, and mango. Lightly sweetened with real cane sugar, these drinks are both refreshing and good for immunity and inflammation.
The only drawback is that seating is very limited so is mostly a takeout spot. That said, there are two nice benches in the courtyard in front of the space and a wall counter that is kind of fun to hang out and chat with other patrons.
Please support a family owned business in the emerging Riverside neighborhood. Very close to Vinings, West Midtown, West and Central Buckhead, and not far off of three exits from 285, chef Andrews restaurant is worth the drive.
THE PORTIONS ARE AMPLE, AND THE PRICE IS VERY REASONABLE. THE MENU INCLUDES OXTAILS, CHICKEN, goat, RIBS, AND FISH.
Preparations include curried, jerk, fried and Caribbean. Many of the items are gluten-free because they are prepared without mixes or premade sauces. This is a great option for groups with varied dietary needs.
Thank you Chef Andrew and staff!
