First time customer. My husband and I walked in and were immediately greeted by the bartender - Nolan. He asked us if we wanted to carry out or dine in. We were going to carry out but decided to take a seat at the bar. Great selection of drinks/beers. BOMB food with no wait, and wonderful customer service from Nolan. We will be back. read more

Overpriced...it's hard to tell when it's open, and food not memorable. The customer service not good either.

So this is about my fifth time visiting this establishment and I have increased to a five star review. Many factors included. Pros. Every meal was overall great with only 2 or less gripes Service has always been pleasant. My spouse picked meal up 30 mins later than online projection. Why? Because I asked for my catfish to be fried hard on a busy sat afternoon. I did forget to inform him of this but the staff was pleasant to my family and the fish was cooked beautifully Yams and Mac delicious Now the straw parfait wow so worth the 10 dollars Lastly the owner thanked me for my previous review Cons a bit pricey for portion of fish, I wish I lived the potato salad tastes like Safeways to me and I wish they sent homemade tartar or remoulade. Instead of packets None of these warrant a star reduction. Thank you for brightening our community Karribean Flava read more

This business is pretty much a carry out facility with a few seats to eat in. They charge a 15 service fee but, I service myself. You will stand in line to place your order and wait for your name to be called to pick it up from the counter. What is the purpose of a service fee? read more

I love this place. This visit I had the Cajun fish and shrimp. The shrimp was delicious, the fish was tender but not as seasoned as the shrimp. The sides... greens and yams were delish as well. I usually get the smoked chicken which never disappoints but I decided to try something different this time and glad I did. They do have sit down seating and a bar. Nice place to pick up a tasty meal or sit a spell. They definitely have a loyal customer in me. read more

I've heard about this place for a while, but haven't had hope for soul food in Charles County since we lost J's Soul Food (formerly in White Plains) due to the pandemic. Today I finally decided today was a great time to try KF for a lent Friday fish dinner. You are going to need to be patient. Just call in your order and run an errand or two. It was worth the wait. The fish was seasoned and the mac & cheese was really good. It was not bland and had more than enough cheese. Everything was hot and fresh which is why I didn't mind waiting about 30 mins at all. The sweet potatoes were not too sweet and the perfect texture. I did get 2 starches (MYB ), so I will try the veggies next time. read more

This is my second visit. I want to bring a visiting friend in to taste the food. My review is definitely a 5 star. Our meal was amazing. Each and every item contained so much flavor. The jerk chicken was so tender and loved the way they cut the meat. The staff was amazing just as before. The restaurant was quiet and clean while we dined in. read more

The oxtail was so salty. I had to recook and add water to lessen the saltiness. The wings were ok.

Jerk Turkey Wings were super tender and full of flavors , same with Greens but i didn't like the rice and peas. It tasted like two days old/no flavor Jollof rice. I will definitely go back 100 times for the Turkey wings, chicken; and greens! read more

I'm excited we have another place serving Caribbean style food in the area. When you walk in, you have to approach the counter to order and give them a name for your order. Alternatively, you could sit and order at the bar. The woman at the register was extremely friendly. It took about 15-20 minutes for our food to arrive but it was clear they were busy with to go orders and folks dining in. There was plenty of seating and I really enjoyed the music selection playing. My husband had the jerk chicken and ribs combo with rice and peas and fried plantains. He ate every bit of it. I ordered the shrimp and salmon combo with rice and peas and cabbage. Both combos came with corn bread. Both my husband and I both loved the cornbread. It was one of the best we've ever had. I did request extra jerk sauce after my meal arrived because I personally felt it could use a bit more. I took one star off because my meal came with two pieces of salmon and one tasted slightly fishy. I'm a pescatarian so I eat a lot of seafood. Salmon isn't the mildest fish but the one filet didn't taste quite as fresh as the other. However, there was so much food I couldn't even eat both pieces anyway, just something the restaurant might want to be aware of. The cabbage and rice and peas were excellent. My husband got a piece of strawberry shortcake and I had a few bites and it was amazing as well and was a huge portion. We live about 40 minutes from the restaurant. We sought it out because of the reviews and we will definitely be returning. read more

So i just left maybe a few mins ago. Before i even try my food the service from the cashier was lackluster. She seemed to be grouchy. When i asked about the crabcakes she tells me they do not have any when they have it written on the window outside and i see it in the menu. She states there are only crabcakes egg rolls. Ok cool not about to argue with someone who maybe handling my food later. But that interaction made me not want to come back even tho this place was recommended to me by my colleagues. read more

I saw great reviews about this spot so my husband and I knew we wanted to give it a try. We ordered online and picked it up. The ribs were very good but I wouldn't call it jerk. The mac& cheese was worth the trip alone they were so good. The collards were ok but I've had better. My husband said the cabbage and yams were delicious. I would definitely come again and I can't wait to try more of the menu. read more

I got the Oxtail Rasta Pasta and mac n' cheese, after hearing for years about how amazing oxtail is from some of my friends. Charged a 4% card service fee, 10% service fee, on top of the 15% tip I left them in good faith before my order. Waited 35 minutes; almost thought they forgot about me. Didn't bother bringing me the mac ahead of time as I chose to eat-in. I'm okay to wait if what I eat is good, but it was not. By the time I sunk my teeth in, food was cold. All of it. Pasta was soggy. Green onions weren't fresh. Beans overly soggy. Whole thing tasted like frozen food heated up from a microwave. I did to some extent enjoy the oxtail, was nice. I also wish they would've told me dining in was pointless. Got served in to-go containers with a plastic fork, that broke against the oxtail. read more

The food was great ! We got oxtail with rice and peas and cabbage and jerk ribs. Sadly they were out of jerky Turkey wings but due to their large menu it wasn't too much of an issue. Oxtail ??? Yeah baby there was meat on those bones which is very rare from Caribbean spots. There was so much meat it was so tender and flavorful. The cabbage was beyond amazing I loved it so much and I thought I wouldn't. Now the rice and peas weren't really rice and peas it was dry, hard and didn't seem to be cooked the right way maybe it wasn't made with coconut milk not sure but not a fan at all. The jerk ribs were great fall off the bone tender definitely smoked not liquid smoke but reallll smoker smoked. Overall great meal read more

Happened upon this place on our way home from out of town and it didn't disappoint. It's more southern than Caribbean in my book. And I'm Caribbean soo...But the food was great. My family loved it. Their Mac n cheese, yams, fried whiting, desserts, and drinks were delicious. They could do a better job on their salmon and collard greens. Overcooked and salty. Otherwise I'll continue to frequent and recommend. read more

I tried the Jerk Chicken & Pepper Eggrolls last night and they are as profound and amazing as the Shrimp Mac and Cheese. Sell them with a Blooming Onion type dipping sauce and holy shmoley, that would be the new thang baby! Get down to this spot if you haven't been yet. read more

Heard so many great comments about this spot so I had to check it out for myself. This might not be your "5 star" restaurant but the food is 5 stars. Hands down they must have someone's grandma in the back. Everything from this place is outstanding. It's good food with the kick you're looking for. Everything is tasty but some recommendations, jerk rib, jerk chicken, Cajun salmon, and the Cajun shrimp Mac and cheese. The sides are so good you on there own you can eat just them and be happy. Go early because again when the food is good, staff is friendly and prices are reasonable stuff sales out quick. read more

I love the food. I've tried just about it all, but my favorite is the salmon, cabbage and yams. I do truly enjoy the peach cobbler. If I could do at least once a week after treatment I'm good for a few days. read more

Try this joint out for the first time based on the reviews. This is a carry out restaurant with the option to sit and eat . The fist thing we noticed on the receipt while we waited for our food is that in addition to the sales tax they charge you a 4% cc service fee and a 10% service charge. There is no notice or any explanation so that as consumers we have the option to go elsewhere. I guess the service charge is for when they bring the food to the table. The food was not good. Brown strewed chicken is not jerk chicken. The fries were the only thing that tasted good. read more

Listen! It's not often that I try a place and everything is good. This is at the top of my list and I will be making the trip back soon! We ordered the Restaurant Week special, which was 10 jerk wings for $10. I wanted to try the smoked chicken so I ordered a side of it. We also ordered the Cajun salmon and shrimp with a side of Mac & Cheese and collard greens. Every single thing was TORCH (great). Those were the best greens I've probably ever had. I give everything 5 stars. Mix the jerk wings with the bbq sauce for an additional amazing taste. We also ordered the Rum Punch slushy and White Peach slushy. Both great. Then we decided to try the beef patties and coco bread. Both really good. I recommend this place and will tell everyone about it. I almost forgot to mention the service. Everyone was so nice and helpful. Get here! read more

Customer service wasn't welcoming & the food wasn't good. The food was very salty & overly priced.

I have left a decent review in the past (due to the Mac and cheese not being fully baked) but TODAY everything was 10/10 and improved. Chicken wings were fresh and hot, the Mac was good, and the cornbread was great as always read more

Chef Nikki catered my 65th birthday luncheon in my home. Everyone was impressed. Food was delicious & plentiful.

Staff is so friendly. Went there with my family, they were helpful with the menu. Food was amazing

In 2020, as we were leaving Labor, I vaguely remember my husband and I running into a man who stopped us telling us he was opening up a restaurant. Fast forward 1 yr later I decided to place a large order: whole chicken meal with 2 lrg sides, salmon and shrimp meal, rata pasta, ox tails and some extra sides. 1st off the portions are incredible, the customer service was impeccable when I came in to pick up the order and the taste was delicious. Everything was perfectly seasoned, tender and not at all dry. The rice and beans, yams, chicken, large shrimp, fish, sauces, etc. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! read more

The jerk ribs,cabbage, and hinny yams are absolutely wonderful, seasoned to perfection

The food was not it. Taste was bland. Surprised it's supposed to sell Caribbean food. Not even close.

The macaroni was heavenly, as was the Cajun shrimp. Everything was wonderful! The jerk chicken was a bit spicy but still tasty!
