I remembered going to this hotel last year when my sister was in town but not seeing anything but a pub. Well, this is a pop up restaurant in O'Malley's.

The jerk sauce was amazing and pretty spicy. I'd definitely get both of these dishes again. Check them out!

I was gonna try that, but they were out of that today. They also were having their fryer cleaned and so you could not get french fries or sweet potato fries as a side either. It was a decent portion of food, but my first thought upon receiving it was it was not a good value for the money. It's fairly pricey for a food truck that's parked by a gas station. I think there are better places to get barbecue around here.

The mac and cheese looked incredibly unappetizing and tasted just as bad. The curry didn't taste like curry at all, and the rice was no better.

I knew that it would be--our building swamped Island Soul with orders and they seemed really busy. I ordered the jerk chicken and received a huge chicken leg with fall off the bone, juicy meat perfectly coated in a sweet, sticky, spicy jerk seasoning. The collard greens didn't disappoint either: soft, lightly sour, and delicious. The fries were flavorful and crisp. I thought that the sides would be upstaged by the delicious chicken but not at all; they held their own. I also managed to sneak a few bites of some jumbalaya that my boyfriend had, which was just as delicious as the others. It was savory and meaty and completely delicious. Our building does a new food truck every week and this one was, hands down, my favorite, despite the fact that all the food trucks have been great. I just wish they served dessert! I'm sure it would epic.

The menu had plenty of options, and the food looked freshly cooked. Taste: We ordered a large jerk chicken and a small curry goat, both with rice and peas, cabbage, and a roti, along with a coco bread. Everything was flavorful and tasted authentic. The two ginger lemon drinks we got were also refreshing and paired well with the meal. Ambiance: We dined in and enjoyed the Jamaican music playing on the TV, which added to the island vibe. The restaurant was clean and comfortable, and the bathrooms were well maintained. Overall Review: We paid around $60 for everything, which felt reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Island Pride is a great spot for hearty, authentic Jamaican food in a relaxed setting. I'd definitely come back or order from them again.

The BBQ was solid but not worth the price. Additionally, I did not add a tip and somehow a $5 tip showed up on my credit card receipt (not good customer service). I know prices are going up but to pay $38 (after tax and the tip) for a single serving of BBQ is crazy. Now if you don't mind spending this kind of money for BBQ I find no fault with the food. That part was solid.
