    Mac and cheese, rice and peas, oxtail, plantain, jerk chicken
    Noheli R.

    Delicious food. This place is more so of a take out spot but the food speaks for itself. Never had any trouble with the service. Would definitely recommend.

    I just ordered 2 curry chicken dinners the rice is disgusting it taste like they burnt it. I tried calling 14x and couldn't get an answer!

    I wouldn't recommend this place. I ordered two curry chicken dinners and the rice tastes burnt so I tried calling to let them know. After placing 14 calls I couldn't get one answer so I tried contacting them through Facebook messenger on their business page and couldn't get anyone. I'm on my lunch break so I don't have much time now I have to drive 7.5 miles after work and hope their still open. Wasted my lunch break and I'm still hungry! Smh "This Ain't It!"

    This restaurant gave me life. Because I have had more than my share of jerk chicken and curry chicken, I ordered brown stew chicken instead. That along with some rice and peas, cabbage, and plantains. The portions weren't skimpy and the flavor was not flat. If I find out this restaurant was here before I left in 1995 and I didn't go before I left, I will scream.

    Jerk salad

    Stopped in for a quick lunch. I was craving a jerk chicken salad. It was at 2:00 on a Tuesday, and we were the only customers in there. We were served fairly quickly. As for my jerk salad, the salad was so fresh and crisp, topped with a plentiful amount of chicken. There was just the right amount of sauce on the chicken so that it wasn't drowned in sauce, but also wasn't dry. The jerk sauce itself is really something else! Sweet, tangy, and very unique. The chicken was really high quality--cooked well, with more meat than bone. It was also fairly easy to pull apart, so that I could eat this meal with a fork alone. The jerk does have a bit of a kick to it, although I'm a fan of spicy, so I added some hot sauce for an even bigger kick. My boyfriend thought it was spicy. Also, this meal was ridiculously cheap. You can't go wrong with this place.

    Oxtail meal with rice covered in gravy and cabbage

    This food is so good and I would go back every day if I could. I had the medium oxtail meal with white rice and cabbage and it was amazing. I also got the side of Mac and cheese and it was so creamy and cheesy I went back and bought another portion. When I got to my aunts house she tasted my food and drove down the street to get her own f

    Authentic home cooked Jamaican food. Everything was sooo good!!

    A lot better than expected reading some of the reviews here my girl can't stop talking about the…read morechicken and can't say anything bad about my meal will definetly order again

    Ordered takeout from a spot located in a dive bar--which, honestly, seemed kind of cool at first…read more But when I got there, I noticed something odd: no smell of food cooking. Red flag number one. I headed to the back where the "restaurant" part was, and the vibe was off. Everyone in the kitchen was just sitting there, stone-faced, staring at me like I'd wandered into a secret society meeting. My order was the only one, yet they still made me show proof on my phone to confirm it was me. Weird. Despite the strange energy, I decided to give it a shot--mainly because it looked like someone's Jamaican grandma had made the food, and who's saying no to that? When I got home, though, the food was... fine. Not great, not terrible, just aggressively average. The chicken was okay but obviously had been sitting under heat lamps or in a warmer for hours without being stirred or loved. The rice? Mid. The cabbage? Also mid. It's the kind of place where you can tell the food's only as good as how much effort the cooks feel like putting in that day. Some days it's probably amazing; other days, it's got the potential to send you sprinting to the bathroom. So, would I go back? Maybe. But only if I'm feeling adventurous--and not wearing white pants.
