**UPDATE: 10/12/2024**…read more I am mainly writing this update as I did not get to fully finish this review when I was first writing this, but in hindsight it was probably a good thing I did write an update to begin with. I now have a much clearer understanding what this place should get. But do note that everything I had said in my original review still stands. As ate I more of the Jerk Pork that I had ordered, it was clear to me which food item was keeping this afloat. Thankfully, this was the pork itself, the main part of the course. The vegetables I found you could have gone with or without, and the rice still wasn't really good at all. In fact, when the jerk seasoning from the pork seeped onto the rice, it kind of ruined the rice to be honest. As for the plantains, I can't complain about them, but I also do not have any high praise for them either. in conclusion, the pork was actually pretty tender and is the reason it doesn't get any lower of a rating. In fact, the pork alone almost brought this up to a 3, and this would be a 2 and a half if half-stars were a thing. However, it's not enough to look past the lack of display of business hours, the way the menu is displayed, and even though I did not catch the worst the customer service stories got, I still felt uneasiness from being served in here. It won't be my choice to go out of my way to come here again, but I am thankful to have visited this place once.

Let me start of by saying the portion size was amazing. But the food just needed more seasoning for…read moremy taste. I ordered Curry goat, rice, beans and veggies (cabbage). It was not spicy at all, which I believe caters more to the area where they are, it did have a decent flavor. But it was a little dry and like I mentioned above, it needed more seasoning. I did have this delivered through grub hub, in the evening time so maybe that's why. It did come fast, within 30 minutes. Also, even though I ordered through grub hub the price wasn't bad at $17.00 for a large. It was also advertised with plantains, but I didn't get them, not sure if that was an error on GrubHub though, since I didn't physically go in to the restaurant. I would give them another chance. Especially if they could add more seasoning and some type of sauce for extra flavor and to compensate for the dryness.

The patties were a bit too salty but they weren't as oily as the other La Baguettes in the city. So, because we were still parked outside, I decided to order more. And my sis asked me to exchange one of the bottles because it was completely flat. The lady behind the counter looked visibly annoyed that I'd returned. I asked for more patties and told her the soda was flat. Her reply: 'So? I didn't make it.' I asked for a replacement, she insisted it wasn't her problem. Walked out & will never return. Apparently their business model prefers nasty attitudes over sales. Their loss.

I did take 1 star away bc my dad called way in advance to place the order. They said it would be 20-25 min but when we got there they told us it would still be an additional 25 min. How does that even make sense when we got there after 30-45 min which was purposefully done just to avoid this. He then asked if he could add on to the order and the wait increased so he just said never mind. We got the large griot which was plentiful. Griot pieces were not all fatty. Pikliz was good could be spicier but overall a decent meal

Was actually gonna leave because there was no sign outside the door but we ran into 2 other people looking for the same place so we were thinkin it must be good. We directed them down the hill and decided to park... Then we walked down the driveway/hill and saw the other ppl walking back up. We tried to enter but the door was locked so we walked to the back of that building and there was an open door. We started to walk in and with a nasty attitude the guy said "You cant come in that way" you have to use the other door. There was no one in there and the other door was locked. He went to open the front door but as we walked back around we just kept walking back up the hill to the car. Did it really matter which door we entered? He clearly didnt want our business and He wasn't really trying to make any $$$. He lost out on $money for 2 different couples just trying to eat out on a Monday night SMH

Look for the Marina's bar and restaurant We searched it out for a Friday lunch, found the door open and no lights on inside. No heat either Chef / Host Lewis gave us a verbal menu of what he could prepare and had on hand. He never did turn on the lights or the heat. My wife had the Vegan plate w a nice curry, plantains, brown rice medley and steamed mixed veg. I had the Oxtail stew and the same sides, but Mac & cheese instead of plantains Both dishes were great, huge portions and about $22 each. The curry was not too spicy nor my stew too hot. Overall, food good, atmosphere not. Lewis needs more signage and must find a decorator. Meantime, stick w DoorDash or takeout

I joked that I was only going for the diarrhea. The jerk chicken was phenomenal--fall-off-the-bone tender with the perfect amount of heat. The beef patty was just as good. Will there be consequences later? Probably. Was it 100% worth it? Absolutely.

The cabbage was tender. The rasta pasta was perfectly cooked. Everything was so flavorful with a pleasant kick. The chef behind the counter also let me try a cup of the beans which I cannot wait to go back and try it on top of some rice. I'm very pleased and will definitely be going back. The portion was generous and reasonably priced.

Great place!! Will be back. I don't understand why this mostly Spanish restaurant wasn't packed…read more Pretty place with a decent sized parking lot. Large bar area, a larger dining room great for private events (which they do a lot of) per our attentive waiter and a smaller dining area near the front window. My friend and I had 3 of their specialty cocktails while there which we enjoyed very much. We had the octopus with fingerling potatoes which was delicious; the octopus was very tender. We also had the mussels in a white wine broth, it was great. It was a good sized portion for two, but we almost ordered another as it was so delicious. It came with bread to soak up the yummy sauce. My friend had a decaf cappucino and the goat cheese flan since she didn't want anything too sweet. It was also great, the tangy cheese wasn't noticeable in it and kept the flan from being too sweet (personal preference). They had other flans and Dulce de Leche as well.

The plate was huge, and you could smell the seasoning before it even hit the table. The oxtail was flavorful, tender, and coated in a rich sauce that really pulled the dish together. The rice was fluffy, the peas earthy, and everything had that authentic homemade Caribbean taste. If I had one wish, it would be for the oxtail pieces to be a little meatier -- because the flavor had me wanting more. Portion-wise though, they don't skimp, and everything tasted fresh. Service was straightforward, the spot has that local charm, and it's definitely worth checking out if you're craving real Caribbean flavor in the area. One heads-up: parking can be tough, especially earlier in the day, so plan ahead. I'll be back!
