Service- great also! Jamaicans are stereotyped as mean or lacking in customer service however I've never had a problem with directness. The young lady was kind and knowledgeable of the menu. Ambiance- good tunes, space to order and sit if you are dining in. Comfy booths and scotch bonnet hot sauce ready for you at the table ( didn't need it cause everything was seasoned so well) 10/10 for me and I shall return to try the curry chicken which seemed to be a popular item as I sat and enjoyed my meal.

Rip off! I ordered a large goat meat platter and ended up receiving cabbage as the main item with…read moregoat meat on the side. My order was supposed to come with mac and cheese, potato salad, and rice, but they substituted the rice with cabbage without telling me. When I asked for potato salad, I was told they were out, but no one explained the substitution or asked what I wanted instead. There was also no rice under the meat or cabbage, which is normally part of the dish. The whole plate was a disappointment, and at this point I probably won't recommend anyone else eat here. We drove 30-45 minutes from home to pick up the order because it was supposed to be cheaper in person, but instead of the usual ~$24.99 I was charged $30 with no explanation. The goat meat platter has always been my go-to comfort meal from this place, especially after long days at work. With inflation and the government shutdown, I haven't been able to treat myself in a while--and today, when I finally had the chance, the experience was completely ruined. My sunshine at the end of the tunnel was covered in rain clouds. Have a blessed day.

This was my 4th and last visit to this place. I wanted to like this place so badly because of the…read morelimited vegan options in Hampton/Newport News area. But, this place is horrible. How do they stay in business. I waited about 45 mins for 2 eggrolls and they were terrible. I got the soul food and a jackfruit eggroll. The "soul food" had mac and cheese, collard greens and yams. The noodles were mushy and tasteless in the mac and cheese. The yams were dark brown because of too much nutmeg or allspice. They were awful. The collards were mid. The jackfruits tasted old and look re-warmed. Please do better. This is not a good representation of vegan food. It was so disappointing. The two young guys at the register didn't seem to have a clue about anything. Every question I had, they had to run in the back and ask someone. They were more interested in singing to the music that was playing then customer service. I was sick about 30 mins after trying these. beware!

Initially I was hesitant because up until today I had only eaten at one other restaurant that carries Caribbean food. I wanted the beef ribs but they didn't have them however, I thoroughly enjoyed my jerk pork ribs, rice & beans and cabbage. It was delicious!

My cabbage were flavorful and tender yet with a slight crunch and the rice & beans were delicious. Most of all for a food truck it was very inexpensive!!!!

Curiosity made me stop. The food was AWESOME and I was looking for it around town when I stopped seeing the truck parked on Armistead. I saw it again at a festival at Buckroe Beach and made a point to stop there. Then I heard they were located at lunch time at the Net Center in Newmarket. Visited them there as well. Saw the truck on the road just the other day, first time in a long time, so I guess they are still in business somewhere...

Pre-pandemic, this was a place where we would have dine-in visits with friends of ours from a social group or just the two of us. It was probably close to a year since we last appeared so it was time to stop by. Similiar to the past visits, I called in our orders. They greeted me promptly when I walked in where there was only one table occupied. Quick and easy. For our orders, which both served as dinner and lunch for work at our respective sites, we chose their Cubano sandwich with our usual sides (fries for myself and plantains for Sophia). As always, the sandwich was pretty good packed with ham and roasted pork, pickles, cheese and mustard (both had no mayo). I would've liked for more fries in the box, but I had enough for both servings. La Pena Horeb came through once again. You know I'll be ordering takeout from here down the road. Till next time :)

The menu at the window shows exactly what they are selling for the day. They prefer card (with very good reason since COVID started)! They primarily communicate their truck location on the Instagram & recently started testing mobile orders (which I think is AMAZING). I typically rotate between the taco bowl & the steak/chicken tacos w/ no hot sauce (I'm a wimp when it comes to any heat- so give it a try for yourself if you like a little temp). I typically eat here everyday for lunch on Langley minus Wednesday's (because they are not on base that day LOL)! Not only is the food phenomenal but the owners are pretty great also!

Everything and everywhere in the world from fast food joints to fine dining. Unfortunately the biggest reason many don't stay in business or have a lot of return customers is the food quality does not stay the same. Ok today after church because I enjoyed Palms Jamaican food last Sunday, I stopped in again today. I ordered the Curried Goat dinner, and 2 beef patties, rice and beans and potato salad for sides. (got my chicken wings from the Chinese place next door) sorry they are bigger and cheaper! Curry goat taste like beef chips with thick whitish looking gravy. Not that rich dark gravy West Indian food usually has. Potato salad last week was great, this week potatoes were hard and undone, it had green peas in it. What? Do they use cream of coconut in the rice and peas cause I didn't taste it. What was the worst was the beef patties. The outside was crunchy and the inside was dried up mush instead of ground beef. There is no way on God's green earth they could have been made on the same day. Yesterday at best. Hmm, another one bites the dust.
