Ordered jerk chicken dinner. Was told it was 10.00 by my son who recommended the place and the owner. I guess they use dark meat for the chicken. I was told that they only had white meat left and I said ok. Once the food was prepared the owner rang the purchase up for 11.25 and I signed for the transaction. Just as I was about to take the order, the owner said wait, I charged you the wrong amount. She said it is 15.00 because it was white meat, but you already completed the transaction. She took the box from me. I said it’s not my fault you ran out of dark meat. You should have said that it would’ve been more in the beginning. I could have said yes or no, because of white meat. When I pointed out her not saying this upfront plus you charged my card, she refunded the 11.25 quickly back to my card. She said I am not going to argue with you either you want it or not everybody knows white meat chicken is more expensive. That’s not the point. If you as a business owner don’t keep enough of what sells at your place of business, whose fault is that. I wasn’t trying to be difficult, I stated a fact. I didn’t have an attitude about it, I just walked out. Their food is delicious, but not worth the effort as they have no idea what good customer service is.I try to support black businesses, but some make it very difficult to deal with them. Will never eat there or recommend it to anyone because of her.

I’m reading a bunch of comments about the rudeness of the owners. You have to understand West Indian culture to get it. It’s not rude they’re just direct. Also I’m seeing the jerk chicken is too spicy LOL. It’s jerk chicken, it’s supposed to be spicy! If it’s not spicy it’s not jerk chicken. Maybe the curry chicken would fit your pallet a bit more.

Listen I got excited as soon as I walked in that place smelled amazing. Then when I heard the older woman at the front getting short I knew the food was finna be good af. I guess people not from the culture would consider her rude but not at all. She keeps it short and sweet and straight to business. I love it, first really good authentic Jamaican I have come across. everything was on point and all my oxtails literally fell of the bone. rice and peas was delicious especially mixed with the oxtails. The plantains was amazing (wish they gave you more) and cabbage as well definitely got a lot of food for the price and it was definitely delicious. Don’t sleep on them The food here is amazing.

I have been going here since 2007. The food is superb. My go-to is the Jerk chicken. Extra plantian, extra gravy, one chicken patty, one pineapple cola, and one champagne cola.

I really like this place but the jerk seasoning was a bit spicey. I called couple times, thinking the calls dropped. I spoke with the lady but she is rude. All I asked, if the seasoning could be less spicey and she hung up three times. Customer Service is everything. I really wanted to return but would rather pay a higher price at another location to receive better customer service.
