I came by here with my friends to try out this place. Surprisingly, I wasn’t disappointed but left with a great satisfied smile.

Visited this restaurant because we were looking for dinner being from out of the area. Glad we found this place! The food was delicious and authentic. I have had many Trinidadian dishes before since I am half Trinidadian and the food certainly did not disappoint. Will definitely come back when in the area again. We had buss up shut, spicy beef, doubles, wings and curry chicken. The in house pepper sauce was also delicious, I had to buy a bottle to gift to my parents and they loved it.

I had the Buss-up Shut. It was amazing. Even as cold leftovers it was really good! The atmosphere was darling. Our server was so attentive and helpful in explaining the dishes. We also had the Doubles and the green bean appetizers. Everything was so yummy!

First time trying Trinidadian food and I really enjoyed it. There’s some Asian influence here with the chili lamb noodle. Everything was spicy, but not unbearable. It was just enough for a sweat, but it was really good. They were out of some stuff since I went close to closing so I’m looking forward to going back to try other things.

After reading reviews and looking over the menu, my family of 3 decided on this restaurant. All the food was authentic and fresh. The double was really delicious with all the layers coming together for one of those perfect bites. The bao buns were fluffy and the chicken inside of them was amazing. Kimchi fried rice was spicy and probably my favorite. The chicken curry was very hearty and lightly flavored, not spicy. I added their in house hot sauce for a kick. We will be back ! I recommend this place 100%

This place is dynamite. A small hole in the wall turned out to be amazing. Logan was our server, and he was very attentive and really catered to us. We wanted to try everything on the menu,however, there was only room for so much. We decided on the Korean Fried Chicken and Fried Chicken Bao Buns. Both were very tasty and very well balanced with seasoning and spice. I tried their habanero lime-aide. Sweet and spicy. It was very refreshing. Dinner was really delicious, too. I had the Coconut Jerk Chicken. The sauce was amazing. I ate it with a side of Buss-Up Shut. My husband ordered the Rack and Mac. Both were tasty. A nice track of Baby Back Ribs with their jerk seasoning rub and homemade Guava BBQ sauce on it, and it comes with Mac and cheese on the side. It’s the baked kind and it’s just the way I make it at home. For dessert, they were out of a couple of things, so we ordered the key lime pie. It was good. I’m not really a dessert person, but I had a bite and it was deliciously sweet with nice Graham cracker crust. Needless to say, we’ll be back for more. I want to try the Pineapple Chow next time. Their portions are nice, so come with an appetite.

I dined here for a birthday dinner. The restaurant is extremely small. Upon walking in, I was expecting the savory smell of Caribbean/Trini food to hit me but I smelled nothing. The hostess and servers were okay, nothing outstanding about the service. Unfortunately and to my disappointment the food was mediocre at best. The food was reasonably priced.

One of the best food experiences i had in lancaster. Got the ribs and they were delicious even reheated the next day. Our server was amazing and working in restaurant business personally that’s saying a lot. He was very attentive on filling our waters. The place is a little small but if they expanded I guarantee alot of events would be chosen to be held here.

Some of the most incredible food I’ve ever had. Definitely has Indian roots to it with Caribbean flair! The doubles and chicken curry were excellent, would highly recommend! Service was excellent. I would give e atmosphere 5 stars but there were several gnats that tried to join our dinner continually throughout the night.

Simply put, one of my favorite Lancaster restaurants. So so good. Everything I’ve tried has been absolutely delicious and I can’t recommend this place enough. The staff is always great and the restaurant is small but cozy. They don’t serve alcohol but have only a small corkage fee if you want to bring wine. Try this place. You won’t regret it.
