We ordered a large order for Fathers Day.The packaging of the food could have been done a bit better ended up getting curry from the chicken all over my car.. a simple plastic wrap around the container or bag would have prevented this from happening!The food quality was a bit of an issue... I have made and had plantains many times but these seemed like they had turned they had a sour taste and were mushy and not cooked well at all. The rasta pasta was inedible it tasted like a sweet honey and we just threw it out.. was not at all what I was expecting! The Stewed chicken was good but not what we are accustomed to calling stewed chicken .. The curry chicken was good but all thighs which it did not clarify when ordering lots of Fat on the chicken.The roti was probably the best part of what we ordered but they are pricey...The worst part of the meal was the jerk wings which had a very bitter off taste to them and the curry potato and channa (Which was very watery.) The rice and beans were just rice and red beans and lacked all flavor... the spinach was also not very flavorfulOverall I would not ever order here again! It was not good and for the $400 I spent... we ended up having to throw out quite a lot of food. The quality of the food was NOTHING like I expected ... much of the food tasted like it was turned or close to spoiled. I was very disappointed!
Lady behind the counter definitely needs a smile on her face. I asked a simple question and it triggered a bad response. Can't imagine if she was really upset
The Oxtails were big and savory. The vegetables just right! Restaurant is clean and staff very friendly and helpful. Too much presented on the buffet to make a decision, so I will go back to try as many of these treats as possible. I went on the recommendation of a coworker.
First time trying this restaurant and we were highly disappointed. We wanted Jamaican food & sadly did not receive it. Our oxtail’s were not seasoned or browned. Our meals had no gravy and dry rice, the cabbage received was not seasoned and tasted like plain boiled cabbage. Sadly the pieces we received in all 3 meals were the core pieces that were all rock hard. Our second side requested was plantains and we received 2, for a side order that’s disappointing. No instructions were followed with our meal so overall a bad taste was left in our mouth’s
This is the worst Jamaican food I’ve had in my entire life. Not one item tasted good! Oxtail, mac and cheese, rice and beans, even the plantains! All horrible!!!
Great Caribbean oxtail sandwiches. I especially liked the cabbage version of the oxtail sandwich it had very nice caramelized like cabbage and carrots on top of big chunks of meat and soft thick bread either sandwich I had will fill you up and if you have a sweet tooth after devouring that deliciousness they have some delicious cake available too. Come hungry leave full wanting to order more regardless :)
This place gives Jamaican cooks a bad name. The food has NO/ ZERO taste. The rice and beans were mushy and WAY OVERDONE. Their version of Chocolate Rum cake..... plan dry Chocolate cake. The Macaroni Pie, overcooked noodles with a TON of garlic and cheese on top. The Stewed Chicken, ZERO flavor. This was the worse $50 I ever spent. This was my first and last time patronizing them.
I lived in Suriname and spent some time in Trinidad. This was the best roti I've had this side of the West Indies. Great, authentic food. Come here. Do it now.
I went to pick up an order and asked for the order. The lady pointed towards the self. And I asked is that everything, and all the sudden and all full of my surprise she screamed at me "I don't know".WOW!!!! I never had such a horrible experience in my life....Same on youYou better take a good long break lady
This spot only give you TWO piece of oxtail for damn near $15 lol.. just get your Caribbean food from DC because VA is a disappointing CLEARLY
