Delicious! Appetizer sampler was phenomenal and every single dish we ate is a 10. Kudos to our very lovely waiter who took the experience to the next level. Thank you so much for making my daughter’s birthday memorable.

It’s been years since I’ve had good, authentic Jamaican food and this place did not disappoint. The waitress was extremely personable and the staff were respectful. The portion sizes made me feel like I was eating my Nana’s food again.

Price: 2 plates of food, one vita malt, one side of plantains= $62 Only people who really love Caribbean food or are natives will like this price considering slow service, tacky ambiance . all others will be let down from the price. But still worth it for the true lovers. True value of the meal: $48, actually charged $62 with 15% tip totaling $71. No alcoholic drinks were included in this total but still surpassed $50 somehow….

My family is from Antigua so finding good Caribbean food in Seattle is definitely a challenge! We arrived, no hostess so we had to wait a little bit to be sat (there were only people sitting at the bar, the restaurant was empty). We ordered curry goat, jerk chicken and plantains at around 7pm. They were out of carrot juice, and coco bread what a bummer! Food arrived pretty fast and the curry goat was fantastic, the jerk chicken was also good, one drumstick was dry but the other was moist, seasoning was good. Having that curry goat really brought me back so I really enjoyed that. I put 4 stars because the service was extremely slow, although the waitress was super nice it’s seems they have some regulars they like to socialize with so we had to physically get up to ask for the check after waiting and trying to flag her down for almost 15 mins. Ambiance was ok, the lights are super bright and the decorations are messy featuring Asian country flags but not even Antiguan flag 🙁 I still tipped the waitress despite poor service, but if I go again and it happens again the staff will not receive a tip. I put 4 stars because often Caribbeans are pretty bad at customer service so I wasn’t surprised but this place deserves to climb up and the only way they can do that is to make sure they meet American customer service standards in an American country! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for good Caribbean food!!

We really enjoyed the spot customer service is great. The food was even better everything fresh oxtails tender. The pasta was cooked to perfection and not overcooked. The rum punch was delicious as well. I don’t think you can’t get any better Caribbean food unless you go to the Caribbean.

Our server, Roger, was absolutely fantastic! He was not only kind and professional but also made us feel like we were lifelong friends. This was my sister’s and my very first trip to Seattle, and we can’t wait to return to this incredible place! The atmosphere was vibrant and laid-back, filled with colorful decor that instantly put us in a great mood. To top it all off, we enjoyed amazing music by a renowned reggae and dancehall artist. It was an unforgettable experience!

Great food! Loved the beef patty, coco bread, and seasoning on the meats. Cocktail was tasty as well. Unfortunately, the restaurant was out of ackee so I didn’t get to taste the saltfish. I also realized they forgot our fried plantains order, but I was full when I remembered so it’s ok.

Had the oxtail with rice and peas, and a side of plantain. Thoroughly enjoyed my meal, my friend had the escovich fish and that was also awesome. Customer Service was absolutely excellent. Good Jamaican music was playing. Will definitely make this my go to Jamaican spot.

So update, have been back several times taking friends, they all enjoy the food and the music. Roger has also always been excellent.

The food was amazing! Chicken fell off the bone before I could it to my lips. The oxtails had a great stew flavor, and we were extremely tender and very light. Everything was seasoned well, and afterward, I didn’t have that over indulged feeling. It’s definitely a spot I will visit again. Oh, staff was great. It felt like a was somewhere in Jamaica with family.

This is probably some of the best jerk chicken I’ve had!! The chicken fell right off the bone. And the rice and beans and salad all tasted really yummy.

I think this place is family owned so don’t expect the service to be crazy fast! Sometimes it’s nice to slow down and enjoy the experience. It felt very authentic.
