For the majority of the time he was playing was a mix of reggae & early 00's vibes. I was seat dancing the entire time. There was a little bit of a wait for food but it was worth it. I ordered the Ackee & Saltfish. I don't like everyone's but this was like being back in the islands, & it came out piping hot. I will say the service can be improved. I watched multiple waitresses going in & out, tending to tables outside & tables on either side of mine being helped, but our table was left until it looked like we were ready to leave. Even though there were some issues, I like that there's finally a place with day party atmosphere, in Manchester, to really enjoy yourself without the long lines.

Brunch time is not club night time. It was so loud it was hard to have a conversation. When asked twice to turn it down a little, it got louder. Brunch is about having good conversations while enjoying good food, not having to talk loudly or ear to ear. We also waited 15 minutes to get our checks.

This made it pretty easy for us to review the menu and zero in on what we wanted, which was four items. Our server Anca was very pleasant and professional, and enhanced our entire consumer experience. We went with a small container of freshly made egg salad, a small container of grilled shrimp ($5), Meatballs with rice and vegetables ($13), and a frozen eggplant lasagna ($9). The egg salad was very good. Just egg and Light Hellman's Mayo and nothing else. It was a pretty much perfect batch, and a good convenient value at $5. The shelled "tail-on" grilled shrimp were five large nicely seasoned pieces that were delicious. We split the Asian Meatballs dish for dinner tonight. It was a big 19-ounce container with three Asian meatballs, rice, broccoli florets, and julienned carrots, squash, zucchini and scallions. A half portion was plentiful, the meatballs were excellent, and the sweet chili sauce added a zippy finishing touch. If the eggplant lasagna is half as good as the meatball dish, I'd be very happy. Some of the other intriguing listings we saw on their menu were Balsamic Shredded Beef, Turkey Cutlets with Fontina, Garlic Parmesan Flounder, Spanish Rice with Chicken & Shrimp, soups, salads, and desserts. Definitely worth your while to stop in and check out their grab and go goods.

This is such a great option to have in the freezer, when I know I won't be able to cook I can drop one of these flash frozen meals into the fridge the night before and the next day I can have it ready in minutes. My father in law is a rather picky eater, but he absolutely loves the meatloaf, pot roast and macaroni and cheese. I love that there's no commitment to a minimum number of meals, we can buy what we need, when we need it! Their prices are reasonable and the portions are perfect. We pick up our orders, but they do deliver and that charge is very reasonable. A great service we will definitely continue to use!
