I came in straight from work, got 1 plate of jerk chicken and some Pattie's.... Wound up taking another plate home so the family could enjoy as well. The jerk chicken is so tender and perfectly seasoned and chargrilled. The restaurant is got an island vibe with some island music playing in the background (not to loud, but just enough to finish the vibe of being transported with every bite. I swear... if this place was beachfront or like it's own standing building with an outdoor tropical place... you would definitely think you got transported. It's super clean including the bathrooms. The owner is filled with joy everytime I saw someone walk in/leave. My server was Lucy (she's also a bartender there), if you go.. ask for Lucy (she work the later part of the week), tell her Trisha recommended her With the quality of food, the cleanliness of the restaurant, the amazing service that I received today... this place is going to be a neighborhood favorite without a doubt!

They are the best outside Jamaica hands down

Whats better than supporting your own people, Caribbean it was. Ordered a Jumbo oxtail plate and a regular jerk chicken plate. Picked up the order bag was tied and ready to go. We left came to the house and opened them plates. Pure disappointment. I think the restaurant did this because the food was already paid for. EVERYONE WHO EATS HERE AND ORDERS ONLINE, HAVE THEM UNTIE THE BAG AND SHOW YOU YOUR FOOD. How does a Jumbo oxtail plate look like a regular plate? If i order extra gravy i want the gravy from the meat i ordered. Not a jarred sauce. My cousins jerk plate was dry as h3ll. I asked him has his plates in the past looked dry? He said no, he mentioned that his past plates the chicken is juicy with tons of gravy. Very disappointing for a black owned restaurant. I dont want to blame the restaurant as a whole as we know how the food comes out based on how the chef is preparing plates. The chef for September 09, 2026 was not hitting and needs to be reevaluated. I have let my family know who frequents this place to put that on pause. My cousin is already hesitant about returning. And i know when i return next year i definitely will not be back. I should have taken pictures but didnt. Just know people check your plates before you leave.

It's like I ate at a different place than everyone else. There was one other party in the…read morerestaurant when we walked in at dinner time. We ordered chicken curry, jerk chicken, jerk ribs, and Rasta pasta with chicken breast. We also had the Jamaican patty as an appetizer. The Jamaican patty was ok, it got better as you ate it. Probably the most flavorful thing I tasted actually. My husband's ribs tasted like Costco ribs with jerk seasoning, pretty meh. The red beans and rice was alright but not great. My friend said her jerk chicken and the curry were alright. I had a small bite of the chicken curry and pulled several bones out of my mouth. I don't mind a leg bone or a thigh bone but when I'm pulling the little bones out that are no bigger than your fingernail, I'm not thrilled. My Rasta pasta was the biggest disappointment. The odd choice of vegetables makes sense when it arrives and you see it's literally frozen California vegetable blend that was microwaved and tossed in there. The red pepper and onion slices were so small they were more for color than flavor. The pasta was served in a "sauce" that was very thin, more like a broth, and not very flavorful. The chicken was also frozen and reheated, you could see the fake grill marks on it. It's like the dish you make when you arrive home drunk at 2:35 and are just throwing together whatever you have, but more poorly executed.

It feels good to come to a restaurant and consistently get the same taste that you had before. I never want my food to be better or worse, I just love consistency. That's what makes up loyal customers. I always get the same thing no matter what Caribbean place I go to; jerk chicken (or any meat I'm craving jerked), rice and peas (which is just rice and beans married together), cabbage, a side of plantains (my absolute favorite when they're cooked right) and a spicy Jamaican patty (since they're readily available) while I wait. This is TOP 3 for my favorite Caribbean places in Jacksonville, FL!!!

The restaurant is cute and quiet with a very sweet woman working the front. I'll be back SOON!
