Leon, who is extremely enthusiastic and just down right a cool cat, greated me at the window. I was torn between jerk shrimp or jerk chicken, but went with this recommendation based on how substantial the chicken portion is. It was ready in only 15 minutes and once I got home, I quickly dug in. I knew I could probably save about half of it for lunch today, but it was just so darn delicious that I devoured the entire platter in one sitting. Haven't tried them yet? Give them a shot and tell em Jared sent ya.. they'll laugh for sure.

The service was decent and the chef came out to greet us and check on how we liked the food. I will say the jerk chicken is spicy and very authentic like it came from Jamaica itself lol. I ordered the Rasta Pasta with chicken which was good, but heavy. They give you a lot of food too so prepare to bring some home for leftovers.

The server was super attentive of us. Good music- mostly soca and reggae. The food was good and the portion given was great! I had enough for the next day.

Appetizers, Empanadas, although flavorful, came lukewarm, at best, as if they had been sitting under a warm lamp waiting for their name to be called, instead of cooked to order. The Guacamole, the same. Brownish, as if it sat in the molcajete awaiting the next guest's order. Accompanying Plantain Chips the same. They should be cooked to order and served hot tableside. The Fried Cheese is a good addition. You should not taste stale oil that it was fried in though. The Mofongo (Chicken) was decent, although a tad stiff (it definitely needed the Amarillo sauce.) The fried Chicken Strips again, should've been hot but were lukewarm. The Mofongo's serving amount was smaller than what we're normally used to but it's a dish we could reorder. The Seafood tower lacked flavor and was overcooked. Every piece of Seafood curdled (Shrimp, Lobster Tails). The Crablegs seemed old, as they had black spots on some of the legs. The Tower definitely needed the Sauce, which seemed prebottled and not exclusive. It doesn't take much to make an Housemade Seafood Boil sauce versus just providing an oily pre-bottled one. The Grilled Chicken with Rice and Beans, seems like a safe bet but here are the issues/concerns: 1. The Grilled Chicken flavor was fantastic and the Char was perfect! The Chicken itself was rubbery and congealed, as if it was wet brined too long. Rendered it inedible. The rice was good but the Frijoles severely lacked flavor or a decent amount of beans. Fallen skin from overcooked beans does not count! The Drinks were worrh coming for. The Coquito, Berry Smash and Manhattan were all fuerte (strong) and REALLY good! BE CAREFUL to NOT PARK in the lot adjacent to the right. They do have a dedicated lot on the left, behind the main restaurant and next to their Hookah across the street by the docks.

A megamix is a frozen alcoholic beverage that comes in a glass in different colored swirls. We didn't ask what was in it but be careful, 2 can be dangerously!!

The bucket had salmon, jumbo shrimp, lobster, broccoli, carrots and I may be missing a vegetable or two. For dessert, we had a chocolate lava cake with a side of vanilla ice cream. Super delicious!

The young woman working the counter was very helpful. I decided on jerk chicken with rice and vegetables. The chicken was nice and juicy, perfectly spiced. A little heat, a little sweet. The rice, with gravy as suggested, was delicious. The vegetables were mostly cabbage with some peas, corn and carrots. The cabbage was sweet and still had some crunch. I'll try something new next time and also remember to take some pictures.

I took my food to go. I got home to try it out and realized there was no rice. I was a bit confused because it said it comes with plantain and rice. I let that go, luckily I had my own rice. (Although I prefer the Jamaican rice) I tried the Mac and cheese. I was let down. Way too spicy and needed more flavor for me. The chicken was good. It would have been great with the rice that was missing. I am giving it four stars because my boyfriend enjoyed the chicken.
