How nice to travel to find a little piece of familiar culture!…read more I didn't expect to have a mind blowing experience. Opted for the oxtail because (go big or go home!) I felt it would be a good baseline by which to judge their skills. I think it was an excellent dish because the meat was tender, flavorful and light. Delightful. I definitely know they cook their own rice and peas fresh. So that winner and their appetizers are great and I definitely recommend them if you want something other than the local fare. As for their customer service, it's like a typical Caribbean spot. Service may seem surly but it is what it is. I will definitely be back!

So I'm going to start with the negative. If you call the phone number, no one will answer but you…read morewill very shortly after get a text message with the menu and a "how can I help you". Seemed super awesome at first right..... yes for the first 5 minutes. After that it become a very tedious and annoying process of 30 min of back and forth texting that could easily be handled in a 5 minute phone conversation. This method of ordering is not the best way to conduct business in my opinion. Then if/when you go to the location, there is only a door that is closed with a window on top. It instructs you not to bang, to text, and to have a mask on. Okayyyyy. There's also a chalkboard menu outside the door. Half the things on the menu, once texted to ordered, you will be told is unavailable. So what's the point of the menu. Also, you get no pricing. Even if you ask unless you press for the price and ask multiple times, you will not get it. So your total will be a surprise when you go to pay...and trust it will likely be a surprise with how expensive it is. When you finally get a text that your food is ready, your card will be taken from you, your food bag shoved at you, and very little words if any exchanged. But your food bags will be heavy. NOW THE FOOD. As a Jamaican myself, the food was delicious. The portions are ginormous, so think about sharing. We ordered the stew snapper and jerk salmon. Each comes with rice and peas (which is 3/4 of the container), steamed veg, and plantain. A large Mac and cheese will be the entire container. So unless you need to feed 3-4, don't get a large. The rice and peas is good. Flavorful and clearly done with coconut and pimento seeds... how it should be. The jerk salmon looked burnt and dry but surprisingly was not in the least. The veg was delicious and I could eat a side of that alone. The macaroni and cheese was perfectly cheesy and seasoned. The food itself might be why people put up with the terrible ordering system and lack luster customer service.

The meals come with vegetable medleys, rice, and plantains. I had the ox-tail, they were great, and she even put the sauce/gravy from the ox tails onto the rice so it was flavorful. We sat outside because it was 100+ degrees in the restaurant (poor employees), but it tasted stellar.

The brown chicken stew was also really good. We also got to try their fruit punch as well which was amazing. Overall, I'd highly recommend stopping by this place!

Ordered 4 deconstructed rotis: 2 chicken and potato, a goat and a jerk chicken. 3 with paratha root and 1 with buss up shut. All were super tasty-deep and (not too) spicy flavor, really good sized portions (it gave me 3 meals) and packed nicely. substitutes for the curried potatoes that typically go along with the meal are available. I would personally get the buss up shut variety of roti or opt for the wrapped version in the future the chickpea filling was quite messy due to my error of ripping it. A very satisfying meal nonetheless. I'm looking forward to trying some of their other offerings.

Better service would have easily given this place 5 stars! It's always a little off-putting (for…read moreme) when the person who is supposed to take your order is visibly annoyed by general questions about the menu - especially, if it's your first time at the establishment (whether it's to dine-in or for takeout). That was my experience upon entering Winston's and browsing the menu. Which, might I add, did not display all available options or reflect current prices. How can you NOT ask questions?! Anyway, when we arrived Winston's looks like a brownstone type of home that has a restaurant occupying the first floor. We happened to find a parking space right in front - go us! Street parking seemed to be scarce. The food is excellent. The most authentic tasting Jamaican cuisine I have had in a long time. It's evident they know what they're doing in the kitchen! I ordered the curry chicken with rice/peas and cabbage. Also, a side of macaroni and cheese, which was freshly bubbling out of the oven. We eat with our eyes first, right? I could not resist! And it did not disappoint, at all. Plenty cheesy and gooey while flavorful, too. The curry chicken packed a delicious punch of flavor with each bite as it fell off of the bone. The cabbage, my favorite, shredded into perfect slices and a little spicy kick, perfectly combined with the few potatoes and carrots included with it. The rice/peas was delightful as well. A great meal! By the time we were ready to exit, the service had become much 'friendlier'. However, it is not lost on me that it's only because the owner, Mr. Winston himself, came in and greeted us. He was so jovial and inviting. Prior to that moment, the gentleman behind the counter had MUCH attitude. Overall, the food is what will bring me back here. And I WILL be back!
