The location is an old fire house and it is really nice. I expected more Caribbean decor, but the restaurant is beautiful. The service was good too. My waitress answered my questions and told us what to expect with our orders. The food was good. I had to try the collard green spring rolls. They were delicious. I was hesitant about the dipping sauce, but it gave them a good flavor. I ordered the oxtail bowl. Delicious again. I did not like the cabbage.

My experience at this establishment was ok+, meaning, not so great but not so bad either – mostly ok with some caveats. Atmosphere in the restaurant is nice, probably a lot cooler at night judging from the lighting and ambiance. Staff were nice and service was prompt, however, I don’t think our waiter was as helpful as he could’ve been. We ordered the jerk shrimp as an appetizer, and then got the oxtail pasta as well as the ackee and saltfish for entrees. Food wise, the ingredients seem to be of pretty good quality (clearly the shrimp was not cheap, the texture quality is obvious to anyone who knows decent seafood). Now, the pasta plate was easy to eat, but the ackee and saltfish, given that it’s a traditional Jamaican dish, probably could’ve used with some explanation from the waiter. Upon receiving it, I thought this could not be it – the bowl with the fish mix was delicious but there was also some boiled potatoes, a boiled… I guess dumpling but it had absolutely nothing inside it (so it was just chewy boiled dough, really) and something else that I did not know what it was. On their own when I tasted them, these three things had absolutely no seasoning and zero flavor. I figured there is no way this is meant to be eaten this way – so I cut them in pieces and mixed them all into the fish mix. Suddenly they all added texture to the main part of the dish and it all was quite good. I might be entirely wrong in how I ate this, but there’s no way you’re meant to eat an insipid boiled dough “dumpling”, and it would’ve been nice for the waiter to provide some guidance about how this is probably eaten (or at least ask if I had ever had this traditional dish and given me some context). So, less than great experience, but food was ok. I was a bit more annoyed upon payment – the food already seems a bit overpriced (each entrée was about $35, whereas for the quantity and quality I’d say $27 would be a fairer price), and I did not realize they included a %20 gratuity in the check, so I ended up paying another %7 on top of that because it was the highest number on the machine I was given, though it seemed weird that they would suggest such low values. Now, if you’re going to include the gratuity, it is the duty of the waiter to let you know that. I’m principle, I find restaurants who embrace this practice absolutely infuriating – if service was terrible, I do not get to tell you that with a poor %10 tip so you’re incentivized to improve, I have to still reward your bad service and I personally find that unethical. I would’ve left the %20 for sure anyway, but I was not happy about feeling duped into leaving %27 tip, which I find excessive and felt it was received in a bit of a dishonest way. Let me, the client, choose whether you earned the tip or not. So again this dampened my experience in the end. All in all – good food, slightly overpriced, service could be better, and be careful when you pay. Probably would not come back given my experience – once here was enough.

We went last weekend for a birthday celebration! We were super early so we went to the bar and there were free seats there so we got seats with no problem. All the servers were great, very friendly. The drinks are strong. We were sat at our table at our reserved time. Our server was awesome. She handled our party of 9 very well! The food was good! I would definitely go back.

Caribbean comfort food at it’s best. Our server Nyeusi was kind patient and informative. She suggested the Calabash Stew and it was incredible! Very tasty, hearty, well seasoned. The Shrimp and Grits were delicious. Place has a great vibe. and Oh and my wife insisted they have the best cherries in their drinks in town

Its a nice upscale restaurant. The food is good. You get a lot of food. But the basic non alcoholic beverages were too pricey. If youre parking in their lot its a $20 fee for all day parking. There’s outside sitting & upstairs private sitting besides the main dinning area.

Dropped in here after seeing a play. I’m pretty sure it’s just me, I don’t understand the “hype” of this place. We were seated fairly quickly, no reservation on a Saturday around 3pm. Our waitress was unbelievably slow however, she forgot to put in our drink order, as well as app order. We ordered the snapper & conch fritters app, both were okay. Ehh idk I don’t think this place is for me.

This place had the best Caribbean food I’ve ever experienced, that’s right, experienced. The food was super fresh, so fresh it taste like it was just cooked when we got there. We had reservations for 7, so we had a table upstairs. The service was A1 from our server. I recommend everyone to encounter this place you will love just like we did!!!!
