Reviews
We spoke to who appeared to be the owner or someone in charge (kinda sassy in attitude), who mentioned he’s been doing this for 19 years, but unfortunately the food did not reflect that level of experience. The quality, preparation, and presentation were nowhere near what you’d expect from someone with that many years in the business.
To make matters worse, nothing was piping hot or freshly made. Everything appeared to be pre-prepped and sitting in pots or crock pots, which could explain why the jerk chicken wasn’t heated or cooked through properly. It honestly looked like food that was prepared elsewhere and simply placed out to serve.
If you know anything about real, authentic Jamaican food, this is not it. This may be considered good for the area, but we know better. The food was overpriced, tasteless, and disappointing. Save your money and your appetite not worth the calorie intake.
One thing I wanted to note. The price of the fish on the menu was 15.50. When they rang me up it was $25. They said because the size of the fish was large. The fish looks large because of the head being on in my opinion. I wish they would have told me about the price change at the beginning and not after waiting 15-20 minutes for our food and were checking out. Not cool. I brought it, because my mom already was expecting it, but that was NOT worth $25.00.
We will go back for sure! I recommend it!
I was in the area for lunch and I ♥️♥️♥️♥️ how they have lunch specials!!!!! I usually go to High Grade Jamaican restaurant because it’s closer but if this place was closer, I would come here instead because their curry chicken has bone in it and the other place I go to don’t have bone in the curry chicken. Plus they have affordable lunch specials and the other place do not.
The first time I came here I had a great experience too but the only thing I didn’t care for the first time was the coco bread wasn’t homemade (store bought). They probably changed it and I didn’t get it this time as you see from the picture but that was the only issue from the first time. Other than that, they are nice, you get a good serving size, taste great, and it’s affordable! 10/10
In the picture is the curry chicken lunch special! Perfection!
Don’t eat here. Go anywhere else.
