    Perfection. I've been making a concerted effort to get out of my Alpharetta comfort zone and eat my way around the city. I was in the mood for Jamaican and this was the only place open and not ridiculously far. It's in a very unassuming little strip mall and upon entering the interior visually leaves a lot to be desired. It's dark and drab, but honestly that wasn't a bad thing. It has a kind of hole in the wall je ne said quoi which I've now come to associate with legit food. It's buffet style and there aren't menus so you just pick what looks good. I wanted seafood but unfortunately they didn't have any (they serve tilapia but were out. They have a vast number of sides and meats (a lot, there were like 10 different meat entrees from which to choose). I decided on Jerk Chicken Kabob for my meat and Baked Macaroni and Collards for my two sides. Here's the breakdown: Baked Macaroni: As a Southerner I'm a fool about my baked Mac and this was delicious. Flavorful with that perfectly browned top. 5/5 Collards: Really flavorful but I prefer my greens a little more toothsome. 4/5 Jerk Chicken Kabob: A total flavor bomb. Perfectly spicy with some kind of creamy sauce on top that makes it next level. When that sauce mixes with the greens and Mac it makes the perfect bite. Everything came out to $14 and given the portion size that's more than fair. Highly recommend.

    Everybody rating this 5 stars obviously ain't used to good Caribbean food I'm not even Caribbean and this was a55. Greens was terribleee, oxtail sauce wan tammat nan. Chicken wasn't done. Service was good so was the rice and beans and drinks. But this is overpriced go get golden crust. Got me so blown ts was 40 dollars. This was so dang bad I can't even express how blown i am.

    Island chicken, Rice and Peas , cabbage , Plantains

    I usually get the Jerk chicken when I come here but this time I got the Island chicken & IT WAS SO GOOD. This will be my new regular plate Thank you everything was perfect.

    I wished I had of listened to the poor reviews but I was fooled by all the 5 star reviews and went anyways. Wasted $30. I got an order of oxtails with rice and peas, cabbage and side of plantains. No spice anywhere in the dish at all! I'm jamaican and love spicy food so I had high expectations. The oxtails was tender but had no flavor, no seasoning, no taste. Didn't like the cabbage either. Ended up throwing the plate away when I got home - it was just soooo dissatisfied. The only good thing was the plantains. Maybe the other dishes are better but I'm from out of town so I won't be returning.

    Disgusting oxtail

    The nastiest fakest Jamaican food Literally like dog food -- disgusting The food is not fresh at all And I highly recommend going else where Overprice and nasty

    See all

    Top notch Caribbean food! The oxtails are a must have and the salmon is always a hit every Friday.
