Don’t miss out on the best Caribbean food on the West Coast! Impecable service, extensive cleanliness, and phenomenal food. Worth the visit!

So good, huge portions, your leftovers won't last long. The owner is friendly and the atmosphere is chiiiiill. Great for vegans, vegetarians, and pescatarians.

The food is definitely lacking in flavor or seasoning or something . It is prepared nice and I can tell they tried, but the flavor just isn’t there for me. I got the oxtailI, it was fresh but tasteless. The beef patty was good but I was looking for a more traditional beef patty. It kind also depends on your previous Jamaican good experiences . I ate a lot of Jamaican food in Brooklyn NY so my expectations are quite different. It just doesn’t hit the same. I don’t think it’s something I would try again, I would just rather try another Jamaican spot.

Great presentation but portions really small for the price. Order the Jerk Shrimp a la carte and I got 6 for $18.50. Mac and cheese was a good size but didn't have much favor.

This was my first time ordering here and I’m happy I did… the food was delicious. What I appreciated the most is how pleasantly the guy (tall with glasses) that took my order was, and I believe he was the same one the handed me my food. Customer service was A1… definitely coming back.

The oxtails are amazing. The customer service is A1 and they’re supper clean. I hope they open more locations near Fairfax and Santa Monica it’s needed for the community. Halal meet is hard to find and Jamaican there was none in the world until he arrived. I hear they’re about to do a Asain fusion as well. Wow they’re amazing.

Very delicious and flavorful food! The basmati rice and peas were a hit with everyone at the table along with the jerk shrimp. The service was great as well, highly recommend!

This is one of those hole-in-the-wall places where it's a comedic challenge to actually get the amazing food. I ordered too late in the evening (6pmish) the first time, and they had run out of a lot of food. They were super nice and made substitutions. The second time, I ordered too early (noon) and they hadn't gotten all the ingredients delivered.The food is worth the wait and small business challenges, however. Be aware of what you're getting into and enjoy!

Food was delicious! Everything tasted so fresh, best plantains I’ve ever had in LA. The staff was so friendly and made you feel at home. There’s options for everyone, so many delish meat and veggie dishes. This will absolutely be my new go-to for Caribbean food.
