Placed our order and waited (not long). While waiting, overheard a request for a bag of fatback. After further investigation, Woodstone also sells skins. Add a bag with hot sauce to my order! Can't eat them everyday, but trust, they were crunchy deliciousness in a bag! My meal of BBQ ribs, mac & cheese, cabbage, chicken bawg and hush puppies was soo good! Standout stars were the perfectly steamed cabbage and well seasoned chicken bawg! Portion size will enable me to have 3 meals. I was so excited about those dawg-on skins, I forgot to order dessert. Note to self, meal, skins and dessert next time.

The portions are excellent my only complaint is these green beans are extremely salty. I would think someone samples the food before it goes out. I order the BBQ plate that comes with three sides. My sides were: Sweet potatoes, green beans and chicken BOG. Cashier and server for take were extremely friendly. It's nothing extra special about the pick up window. The dine in area appears to be average buffet style. I gave it four stars, because I don't think the green beans are eatable. I would need to rinse them in water. The mascot drew my attention the first time I drove past the establishment

It's in a cute building with a porch and a large outdoor seating patio area. The service was so friendly. It took my family and I ages to decide what we wanted, and they were so nice about it. The menu is a mix of Hawaiian bbq style dishes, which is a lot like regular American bbq with various Hawaiian inspired sauces. I loved chicken katsu. Each of the portions is generously sized with awesome side options like macaroni salad or fries. I'd love to go back!

The owners and their family were incredibly personable, welcoming, and easy to talk to. They made us feel right at home. We enjoyed it so much that we came back a second time during our trip. Our favorite dishes were the curry goat and the Jamaican meat pie. Both were full of flavor and absolutely delicious. Taste of the West Indies is definitely a must visit if you're looking for authentic Jamaican food and warm hospitality. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

And it tasted absolutely amazing and the food was definitely the right fit for the Jamaican style type of food that I was seeking. The owner was also very friendly and she overall offered both I and my mom nothing but positive energy ever since we walked through the door... We both wish her nothing but good luck in her future endeavors. I and my mom will definitely be future visitors at this restaurant and I highly recommend this restaurant for those who seek a low key dining experience.
