    The rolls, ummi juice and the cakes are amazing. Really a great store and it's black owned.

    I came for dinner with a couple friends during restaurant week. For $40 (tax & tip not included),…read moreyou could pick one appetizer, one entree and either a carrot cake or gulab jamon for dessert. My selections were: coconut shrimp, butter chicken and carrot cake. Coconut shrimp had a nice crisp to it & I enjoyed it. The butter chicken was good, very subtle spices.

    Overall meh. Indian take on West Indian cuisine. Fell short on the flavor profile for West Indian…read morefood being as though there were a lot of West Indian dishes. Oxtails taste sweet and needed salt and the right base for the sauce..was lacking the appropriate flavor profile. The rice tasted like basmati which is cool for Indian cuisines but usually with dishes like Oxtails or Jerk Chicken I'd expect red beans and white grain rice cooked in coconut milk for the flavor profile. Mussels are delicious, they just don't give you a lot of them if you go during any of their prefixed menu offerings. Coconut shrimp are good. Carrot cake was one of the best I've tasted in a long time. Even if your not a fan of carrot cake I think you'll enjoy. There weren't big chunks of fruit or nuts inside. It was layered, fluffy, moist, cream cheese icing spot on, just really spot on. I could have ordered a cake to go and left the food. Drinks are pricey for what you get in return. Some of the drinks are watered down, like their "Sex on the Boat." They give it to you in this cute boat shaped dish with a straw with flashing lights (photo/vid attached) but there's a ton of ice and not much alcohol or flavor. You also have to wait for your entire party before ordering appetizers. Very strange to me. Most places will allow you to order drinks and appetizers while you wait for the rest of your party. Also be mindful that there's an 18% charge for credit card. If that bothers you be prepared to bring cash. They typically will only allow you to split the check two ways so for larger parties it's best to bring cash to avoid confusion when everyone is paying for themselves.

    Wanting to have some variety, I sought out some Caribbean cuisine. I remember hearing about one…read morecalled Jamaican D's. So my brother and I decided to head over to see if what I heard was true. I'm happy to report, it was very very good! Some things to note: They take cash only. They have an ATM inside just in case, but make sure you have cash only you before you go. Make sure you pay attention when traveling to this establishment, as there are many intersections, one way streets, and streets that go from two to one lane. Also, there may be someone who will ask you to get them some food. Once we parked the car, we heard the reggae music coming from their front door. You can't miss it. The menu is on the wall, as well as being taped down to the counter by the order window. If they're out of something they will let you know before you order. When I went they were out of oxtail (a highly sought after dish in Caribbean cuisine). I had the jerk chicken with collard greens, white rice, and macaroni and cheese. My brother ordered the fried whiting, but I guess she didn't hear him correctly (trust me the music there is quite loud inside even though it's even louder outside), because he got the same thing I did. Now, we drove home, the car smelling amazing, and I forgot to take some photos for this review. But even so, I will definitely be back. The food was excellent, the prices were decent, and the service was fast. If you're looking for an adventure, check out Jamaican D's!

    Reggae Reggae Vibes offers delicious Caribbean food that is full of bold flavor and well seasoned…read more The jerk dishes are tender and packed with authentic taste, and the sides complement the meals perfectly. Everything tastes fresh and satisfying, with that comforting homemade quality you expect from good Caribbean cooking. The flavors are rich without being overwhelming, and the food is prepared with care. If you enjoy Jamaican style cuisine such as jerk chicken, jerk chicken cheesesteaks, or flavorful sides, this is definitely a spot worth trying. Great option for takeout when you want something filling and full of flavor.

    We decided on Jamaican and Reggaex2 Vibes seemed like a good option since it's near our house…read more The beef short ribs platter is reasonably priced for the portion size. The two chosen sides were mach and cheese and collard greens. The short ribs were incredibly tender and had a nice flavor. They were a little salty for my taste, but not by much. The greens and macaroni and cheese were good sides. The star of the order was the candied yams. OMG!!! Those get 10 stars! I also ordered garlic string beans and jerk chicken. The jerk chicken presentation was not pleasant and they were a bit dry. The sauce helped. I look forward to going back and trying oxtails and goat. I will definitely get the yams as a side.

    Seriously if I could give this place zero stars, I would! But unfortunately for me, I do not have…read moreoptions for that. So here is everything that I have to say about this place. The jerk chicken was very undercooked. It was all red inside, once I took a bite. I almost vomited. The plantains were hard as a rock, not sweet at all. Oh, don't get me started with the potato salad, omg! The potato salad was nasty.... I didn't even touch it. When I opened the container, it was all watery looking thing, I don't know how else to explain it, but it was more like soup that potato salad. It's like they put water, cream and tiny potatoes in a blender and blended it. The worst island food ever, and I've had many... this wasn't even worth a star that are forced on to us to give to this business. Very undeserving of this 1 star. I wished I had taken pictures, but just thinking of the food now, makes me gag. Just nasty, totally nasty food. Even an alley cat or dog wouldn't eat it.

    I've been here a few times and usually go for the jerk chicken, which is alright. But this time, I…read moretried their oxtail, and man, no regrets at all. They call themselves Oxtail International for a reason--the meat was crazy tender and full of flavor, like I couldn't stop eating it. I was just sucking the meat right off the bone that's how tender it was. They give you big portions too; I had leftovers for the next day. Ordering was quick and easy, perfect for a takeout joint since it's small and there's no seating. One thing I wish is that they could take out these thyme twigs that come in the greens but other than that everything was smackdizzybop
