I have been to this place lots of times. Everytime I go I usually just get the jerk wings because im not big on trying different foods.This time I got the wings and curry chicken. The wing was on point as usual. The curry chicken was also delicious.

The customer service was great from beginning to end we ordered a couple dishes and a couple alcoholic beverages pretty weak but it was sweet The food was okay It was a bit bland in my opinion The cabbage could have been better but the wings were really good VERY spicy I did get the jerk flavor tho. We wanted some items off the paradise menu but they weren’t available so we settle. Cute little restaurant but not my cup of tea I don’t see myself coming back.

This place has great food but it’s inconsistent. I ordered the jerk chicken here before and ordered one today for lunch. Highly disappointed.. it tasted like day old chicken slabbed on with sauce— super dry.

I ordered food through Doordash and my food was horrible and was not tasteless for a Caribbean restaurant.

The owner was a little slow getting to us for our order, but I have to put that behind because it was well worth the wait. Plus she was the only one there, making takeout orders, and serving those before my selfish self. I had some of everything, curry chicken, jerk chicken, plantains/ ripe and green. Man was the food GOOD, so good that I almost ate myself into a coma! And with all that I had plus what my wife had the total read only$42.00 – Not bad at all.
