Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Best experience at this Jamaican restaurant. I've been to alot of Jamaican restaurants, and I truly have to say, love was put into the food here. My husband and I will definitely make this our 1# Jamaican restaurant.

Oxtails had big ol bones in them. Good meat on the bones but not much meat. Curry goat was pretty good. Good taste and flavors. The beans and rice was pretty normal. Not much flavor but still good. The cabbage from here was pretty damn good. Seems like it had more spice than the rice and beans. The star from this place is the jerk shrimp. The flavors in the juice on the shrimp was SO GOOD! Sweet and savory kind of but more on the sweet side. It paired up perfectly with the shrimp. Would definitely have to revisit the jerk shrimp again very soon. Please don't get the roti from here because it's not real roti. It's basically just burned pita bread as you can see in the picture. The lady working here was very stingy with the gravy. She didn't charge me for the extra gravy but she also gave me only a palm full of it. An infant palm at that. I looked at the little container that she gave me and it was gone. The main reason why I'm giving this place only 3 stars is because........as you can see from the pictures.......our food was all jumbled up in the container. That came from the ride home. The food got like that in the containers because the portion sizes from here is rather SMALL..........even though their prices has risen. It's almost like they raised the prices but lowered the amount of food they give out. I had to go to Taco Bell real quick to get full. Then they dedicated a whole quarter portion of the container to 3 fried plantains which were dried out and pretty gross. Tasted like packing peanuts with oil on them. Would definitely go here again but only for the jerk shrimp.

Any indication of authenticity or flavor is a misrepresentation. The plantains were undercooked and hard. The chicken was steamed and completely dried, yet soggy to the bone. The rice was hard in the middle and gritty on the outside. There was a sincere lack of seasoning and spice. The saving grace was the cabbage, though it was sitting in a pool of oil. I had some mid carry out over the pandemic, but this is honestly on of the worst meals I've ever had. I'm honestly flabbergasted this business still exists.
