Want to start by saying that the food here is great. Very delicious and cooked well…. However the employees have very nasty attitudes & seems to only like to serve their kind, which I found to be quite racist, even though you’re also a paying customer.

I ordered a large barbie fried chicken with vegetables only. They charge $19 for a large. It contain more cabbage and less meat. A medium has the same amount of meat as the large. They over price there meals and nothing to show for it. This place is a joke. If I could curse I would because I am very disappointed. The server is rejecting my pictures so I can’t upload the picture

The original blue cantina is a must try if you love Jamaican cuisine. Everytime I get my food here, it’s always there same. The curry goat melts in your mouth along with the white rice, Mac salad and salad. The jerk chicken is nice and spicy. You can enjoy this with a nice cold drink. I do recommend to eat this hot and fresh for the most authentic experience. There’s always a line and the food does sell out so make sure you grab food here. It’s so good! Enjoy!

This place has fell off real bad. I used to go to this place when they where on Boston road and Baychester. Frequent customer since then. In recent months and weeks the food has been very poor. Be careful when buying food from here, they will serve you left overs from god knows when. Also be careful when ordering on doodash. They will definitely make sure to send you leftovers. Need to find a new spot at this point smh

I ordered a small jerk chicken with peas and rice and coleslaw along with a side order of Mac and cheese. The jerk chicken tasted exceptional but the chicken pieces I received were mostly bone and no meat. The peas and rice aren’t the best but go well when paired with jerk chicken.

The food taste extremely good. Could easily have 5 stars, but only 3 stars until they find a new meat supplier because it’s always mostly bones. Any meal, Anytime of day. Bare bone

The food is great. The ordering process is organized, which is nice to see. I saw a post criticizing the attitude of the staff, I found them polite and understanding.
