1st time here. Food is good but a little pricey. Spent $50 for these 2 plates and 2 Calypso drinks. Overall nice for a little hole in the wall. Not much parking but worth a try.

Very polite service to match the delicious food. I had Oxtail, collards, and Mac. The meat was tender and the sides were seasoned and definitely homemade. I can’t wait to try the jerk wings!!

I’m doing this review for my aunt who is a 72 yr old senior lady. She visited this place earlier today for herself and her relatives, her first time visiting. She got jerk chicken, Mac and cheese collard greens and yams. We dont know what Jamaican food is supposed to taste like, but needless to say she wont be back

It was my first trying their food and it didn’t disappoint. Jerk chicken was flavorful. My sides were rice and peas (topped with some curry chicken gravy) and cabbage. Both were delicious Will definitely be back.

Food was great!! The oxtails looked so good i’ll try that next time. The sides were really good and fresh. The chicken was a bit dry and didn’t quite have the ‘jerkiness’ i was looking for but it had a great smoky grilled flavor!!
