Great food! Great environment! Small and intimate space. I am in love with their sweet plantains. The size varies but they have never been anything other than delicious for me.

We were bored with everything on DoorDash and looking for something different.We’d never heard of this restaurant, but we decided to try it and I’m super glad that we did. My only regret is that I didn’t grab any of the sweet plantains too.

“DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME HERE.” The service from the India girl was horrible. She never greeted us when we entered. My husband asked her for something to clean the table with where we were sitting at because it was sticky. She replied by asking us to move to another table. There was nothing authentic about the food. It was more like a Chipotle bowl. Plantain was not served fresh because they cooked it before we got here; yuck! The spicy guava chicken was gross. This was a waste of $55.86 for horrible food and service! We will never return! I would give them no stars but I have to click on one to post this review. They need to change this Jamaican restaurant to India restaurant because there is nothing Jamaica about it.

Food was great, not the most flavorful jerk chicken bowl but still good. Their juices they make are very good! Lots of options to try it out multiple times. It is kind of hidden but you’ll see the menu pictures outside the door.

Small space. Food was pretty good, but a tad bit pricey (about $45 for two bowls and two bottle drinks). I’ll likely be back to try the wings.

You must try this amazing establishment, you will not regret it. The food is delicious! We ordered the Beach party (fried tilapia ) bowl and the island life (jerk Chicken) bowl both were SUPER FRESH AND FLAVORFUL!!!! We also got some chips and salsa, sweet plantains and a meat patty (chicken), omg! We loved every single thing. The owners were very friendly and the restaurant is super cute! We also picked up some juices, pineapple ginger and mango carrot. We will be back! Sorry about the photos we got excited and inhaled the meat pie. And yes they have bowls and tacos but this IS nothing like the bowls and tacos you are used to. GO NOW!

The coconut curry in the carnival meal was seasoned and spiced just right. There was another Caribbean place in the area, but they didn’t have the beef patties like this restaurant. You all saved the day. I will be coming back when I visit again. The woman that greeted me at the register even offered to pop my coke bottle open. Many thanks!

I’ve had food here twice in the last few days. Impressive flavors! And just the right amount of heat, the kind of spicy that sneaks up on you. I’ve eaten the beef patties, the plantains, and the “Beach Party” bowl. UH-Mazing! The beef patties were moist; perfectly flaky/buttery. You get large servings in the bowl, I just wish it had more plantains in it because they are sooo good. It’s nice to have that sweet contrast to the spicey & savory fish, rice & cabbage. The restaurant lacks ambience so if you’re looking for that it’s like eating inside a McDonalds. BUT the food is worth it. So, I will be back.

Cute wooded like restaurant. I ordered the island life for $11 thinking it was going to be good cause I’ve never had jerk tacos , you can’t go wrong with jerk chicken right ?? With all due respect these are the most disgusting spicy jerk tacos . I asked the Indian girl that was training the new girl could I get a refund or get something different because I don’t like it and she stared at me like a deer in headlights and said just throw it . I asked nicely if I could exchange it and she said no I would have to pay for a new meal . I asked her if I could try a sample of the curry coconut chicken and she hesitated but let me try and again MORE DISGUSTING . Customer service poor because I asked her what do they do for customers that’s unsatisfied about the food and she just looked at me as if she was irritated that I was even talking to her and I asked her why do she lack humility and she sarcastically asked me if I wanted to try something else and I told her no because of her unwelcoming demeanor , lack of hospitality and the quality of food is poor and taste like vomit . She stated it’s been sitting since morning and have warmers . Again the food is not tasty or flavorful at all and I wanted this to be a good experience with a positive review. I wont recommend to anyone and I won’t be back , Respectfully .

This is a new restaurant, and I LOVED IT!! The food was amazing and the restaurant although small, feels as if you are tranpsorted to the Caribbean!! The food is Chipotle style, but way better!!! It is authentic in taste and option and I would recommend everyone come abd try. I had a Beach party without Tilapi and sub Brown curried rice. I cannot explain how wonderful my mouth felt as it took every bite of that wonderful food. I also had a buttery flaky veggie pattie. Stop reading and go try this place, you won’t be disappointed.
