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.

I'm not sure if it is the same owner, but I was in the area. Wanted to try it to see if it was still as good as it was Back In The Day. Parking is street parking and it could be very hard if it's a busy day. They have an ATM machine they do not take cards so bring cash. I got the oxtails and I got a large cornmeal porridge. The oxtails were OK. I really just wasn't tasting the oxtail taste and they were kinda tender; not as tender as I would have liked them to be. Overall, I wasn't impressed. I feel like it didn't taste as good as it did Back In The Day. I did enjoy the porridge because not many Jamaican restaurants offer it outside of morning time. if I am in the area, I will go back and maybe try something else but I definitely will be getting the porridge. It was really good and sweet.

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!

They sometimes have a truck outside where you can place your order if you don't want to go inside. I normally get the jerk wings and they're usually pretty good. Their sides are not bad as well. I do love how they give you a good amount for your money. Most time the workers are very nice and Accommodating. They do take card and cash and you can place your order in advance.lol that rhymed!

Everything I ate & drank was delicious. Breakfast was Tres Golpes - perfectly cooked egg over easy, over mashed plantains with fried salami and cheese. SO good - the egg over the plantains was an awesome new flavor combo for me. I had a tamarind juice, my wife had the passionfruit - both fresh & tasty. Service was also excellent. Lunch - I literally just pointed to what looked tasty, got it on my plate, and ate - everything was full of flavor. Prices are reasonable for the neighborhood.

Prices are very reasonable for restaurant food, I think, and the quality is absolutely there. They have all the food in heated pans at the front, though the mofongo had to be prepared separately. When I ate the food later on, everything was absolutely delicious. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely order again! Inside, there are a few TVs, and you order at the counter even if sitting in for a meal. Looks clean and cozy enough, and I would imagine fairly crowded at the right times, but I was there mid/late afternoon, so I only saw one table w/ a customer eating. I wouldn't be opposed to it sometime other than having to pay for parking!

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.

Great option for takeout when you want something filling and full of flavor.

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.

I came in for lunch on a solo date and asked if I could be seated outside. Although there were open…read moretables available, the staff seemed a little reluctant and initially offered me a seat at the bar. I preferred to sit outside, so I was eventually able to grab a table and a menu. It took a little while for someone to bring water and utensils. By the time they came over, I was already ready to order. I ordered the bistec encebollado and was impressed by the portion size! they give you a generous amount of steak. Unfortunately, the steak had quite a bit of fat around it, which isn't my favorite. When the food arrived, the rice was packed into a small cup, which made me think everything would be served hot. Unfortunately, none of the food was warm. Everything was room temperature and lacked flavor. Because it took a while for my meal to arrive, I got the impression that it may have been sitting out before being served. I ate it as it was because I didn't want to wait any longer. Taste-wise, the steak needed more seasoning, although the beans were good. Overall, the meal was average. After finishing, I asked for both a to-go box and the check. About 10 minutes later, the check arrived, but no box. One employee, William, really stood out. Whenever he stopped by, he was attentive, friendly, and on top of things. I appreciated his service and how proactive he was in checking on guests. Overall, the service had some delays, the food temperature was disappointing, and the flavors were underwhelming, not sure if I'll try this place again.
