1st time here ,lady is so nice but the food is not good .would love to see places like this succeed and grow but the food has to be good come on

Food is fresh! No Jamaican Restaurant is open past 6/7p. This restaurant was open and her rice and peas is good. Little on the slow side for delivery but other than this food is good and properly packaged

The hospitality was Awesome but the Food is the worse I've ever tasted. The oxtails we're overpowered by the mud that was slapped on top. The curry goat was also overpowered by the gravy which took away from actually tasting the meat. The collard greens are from a can and the macaroni was so spicy. I took the food back for a refund for which I was told No.

Not sure why this place only has 2.7 stars tbh, I thought it was great. Chicken is tasty and not too spicy to handle like most jamaican jerk chicken and the rice and cabbage hits the spot. I definitely recommend this place.

Way to much spice in the food it’s not that serious let people choose they own spice level ! I could barely enjoy the food who is cooking at this establishment and think this is ok

I really love the jerk chicken meal. Definitely good portion size too.

Food is just too spicy I understand its Jamaican food but the Mac and cheese was even spicy

My first and last time coming here!! A medium oxtail dinner came with 3 (three) pieces of OXTAILS for $16.48. I could have checked prior to leaving but who would think you would only get 3 pieces of OXTAILS? When asked what would I have gotten if I ordered a large serving, I was told 4 pieces ($20+). Totally disgraceful!! Rice/Gravy was beyond spicy (although that’s not an issue personally). However, if your one who doesn’t like spices, your done!! I get it, the price of oxtails are expensive and that price gets factored into the quantity of food given. But if your ripping off consumers by issuing this low quantity, you shouldn’t serve it at all. I should of just stuck with Cool Breeze(Great Food ?) on Whalley ave where I frequent when I’m in the mood for Caribbean Food but I like to be fair and try everyone but it’s reason like this on why I’m close minded when it comes to trying other Jamaican/Caribbean Restaurants in the area. The same narrative, “A bunch of rice and cabbage but they’re cheap with the oxtails”!!!FYI: I have gotten 3 oxtails in the past from Authentic Jamaican/Caribbean restaurants but the cuts were from the large portion of the tail of a full grown cow. This place right here are serving oxtails from the mid to low end of the tail of a calf. And I’m not hating...just look at the other 1 ⭐️ reviews about this place and it’s consistent with my post.Don’t waste ya time!!!
