I placed an online order & it some how change i let them know once I got there but the lady said it was nothing they was going to do. The food already made. She was very rude I'm never coming back to this restaurant again & I recommend you don't either. This photos of the food it was dry with no seasoning.

The food is on the salty side for me. But the flavors is amazing. Had their goat curry with mac and candy yams and ox tail with cabbage and plantains (didnt get the plantains). Will definitely come back to try the other items on the menu.

The Jerk Catfish was so Awesome! My husband never had jerk food before and is a very picky eater and he loved the jerk chicken white meat dinner with 2 sides. I called 3 times before I went and spoke to Sue and she was Amazing. So friendly and thoughtful! I would reccomend everybody to go there. I pulled up in the parking lot and a woman was outside throwing the garbage and said Hi, are you Donna. Of course, it was Sue.❤Sincerely,Donna

Grabbed some tacos and side otw home. The food was good and very hot. Only issue for me was the side portions were kinda small, thankful they gave extra sauce on the side tho.

Excellent food at a reasonably priced. The pattie was really tasty. The jerk chicken, the sauce, and the rice and beans definitely have a spicy kick. Absolutely delicious!!!

Delicious curry (goat and chicken) and tasty jerk (had the oxtail) while the rice and beans brought it home! Wouldn't hesitate to go again when in the area. Dinners were a generous portion size and staff friendly. Rest of the family found it a little spicy but still gobbled it up. I thought the spice right on but I like it a little hot.

Best food I’ve had in a long long time! I ordered the chicken lunch plate with rice and the Mac and cheese and everything was 10/10! I also ordered a side of plantains and some peach cobbler. I’m already thinking about what to try next. I will definitely be eating here again.

Food was delicious. It was my first time Jamaican cuisine and it was fantastic. I ordered the Goat Curry with 2 sides. Since I saw the chicken grilling with coal I ordered that too. And it was tasty. The staff was nice and friendly too. I was offered the banana pudding too. They have a small dine in place too. The place is clean. I will be back soon.

Listen. I have tried Jamaican cuisine from NYC to VA to Cali to Georgia BUUT this place here! Lordt bless the hands that made my jerk chicken dinner. I ordered the dark mix and i was going to complain that they ran out of sides but i ordered double rice and peas and macaroni pie. Chicken was ABSOLUTELY amazing, juicy, and GRILLED! The rice and peas was on the moist side as well and i never imagined falling in love with a plate of food. Not as spicy as i like my food- it has a nice baby spice, slight tingling lips spice. And their dinner portion is more than enough.This is all honesty. No lie. Amazing food! Really happy i tried this place out today.

Staff was friendly. Food was good. I ordered the dark meat lunch, sweet corn, and Mac and Cheese. The chicken was moist with great flavor. The Mac was basic. The corn was lacking for sure, I was hoping for something fresh. I was able to try the cabbage, I'll opt for that next time.
