I decided I wasn't in the area much so made a u-turn to check it out. Hours showed one thing and was informed 12-7 pm, Wednesday through Saturday. I usually get Jamaican food from a spot near the airport but figured why not. I ordered the pulled pork with Cuban rice and ribs with red beans and rice. They both came out aromatic. The Cuban rice had no flavor my spouse said having tried it for the first time. The ribs were about a 6-7 rating, as a lot of bone and I couldn't let my toddler eat them without pulling each piece apart. The red beans were sparse on top of the rice and nothing to get too excited about. The pulled pork was good and the little one enjoyed it. I would give this place another try, if I'm out that way and would get something different. I will say the food truck did look very clean.

Best Jamaican food in the area!…read more The food is always delicious, especially the curried goat. The ox tails are great too. I may try the jerk chicken next, but will have to order curried goat too because it is so good! The portions are fantastic. I usually can get two meals out of one order. The lady and young man are always super nice. I had a bit of trouble finding the door when I first visited, but it's the gate by the main road. Lights are few inside, but just head to the counter and order what you would like.

I ordered the fried pork chops with rice and beans, hoping for a solid, flavorful plate of classic…read morecomfort food. Unfortunately, the pork chops were extremely disappointing--they came out rock-hard and completely devoid of seasoning or taste. They genuinely seemed like they were taken straight from the package and dropped into the fryer with zero prep, no marinade, no breading enhancement, nothing. The texture was so tough it was almost inedible, and there was no juiciness or pork flavor to speak of at all. The server was genuinely apologetic and handled the situation with professionalism, which I appreciated. The owner did come over, looked at the plate, said "oh wow," and then comped half the price of the dish. While the discount was a gesture, it felt more like a quick fix than a real effort to make things right--especially since the food was fundamentally flawed from the start. If you're searching for authentic, well-executed Spanish or Latin-inspired food (especially something as straightforward as fried pork chops), this place doesn't deliver. The execution here falls far short of what you'd expect from a restaurant charging for these kinds of dishes. With better attention to seasoning, proper frying technique, and perhaps a bit more care in portion prep, this could be salvageable--but right now, I'd steer clear of the pork chop entrée specifically. Other items on the menu might fare better, but on this visit, the pork chops were a clear miss.
