My girl Barbara took the best care of us (and made the best smoothie I’ve had in a while), and the food was beyond my expectations. I recommend the oxtails, they melt in your mouth and are perfectly seasoned. 10/10 experience. We will definitely be back!!

Very great food! Got myself a pickup order of jerk chicken w/ rice & veggies. Spicy, fresh, and fell off the bone. Saw some beef patties and decided to add that too. Talked to Barbara and she was sweet as candy! The owner I believe was outside and he greeted me as I left and said thank you. Soo good

Hands down the best Jamaican food I’ve had — and I’ve tried spots everywhere from Northern Virginia all the way down to Richmond. The flavors are authentic, rich, and perfectly seasoned every single time. You can tell everything is made with care.
The jerk chicken is on point, the rice and peas are flavorful, and the portions are generous. On top of that, the service is always welcoming and friendly.
If you’re craving real Jamaican food, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

This restaurant has a neighborhood vibe that is addictive. Books line a bar that overlooks a TV and intimate seating makes dining in and visiting effortless. I spent two hours eating delicious food and listening to fun stories with wonderful people who meandered in for takeout, a drink, or who were just hanging out to visit. Loude’s personality draws you in and Dennis serves up authentic dishes from the kitchen. I had the goat curry, vegetable hand pies, and roti bread. All were amazing! This is my favorite place in downtown Winchester.

My husband and I stopped in late to get something sweet. I got a banana smoothie and it was wonderful! Our favorite part was the kindness and warm family feel of this place. With all the photos on the walls and the owner serving us it felt like we were welcome into someone’s home. 10/10 will return for other food!

We chose this place because of the high ratings but maybe we chose a wrong day/time to visit. The best part of the encounter was the host. Very bright and bubbly personality. However the food was not good. To be honest the food seemed to be not very fresh. It reminds me of food that is thrown together real quick cause you u hungry and u need not put too much attention to taste and presentation. It was not restaurant quality. It is nothing compared to Jamaican food to which I am accustomed to. The rice and peas appeared to be cooked separately and just mixed together poorly. The cabbage lacked flavor and was mushy. Spinach had high amount of citrus flavor. The curry was over powering in the chicken…meaning it may have been added very late in the cooking process and didn’t have time to blend. Another thing, I do not believe the patties are freshly made. I think they are store bought and displayed as home made. Reason being is that they tastes awfully similar to the same patties from the local Costco. This is an overall fail for me.

Delicious food in an eclectic setting with great vibes. The owner is super friendly and helpful. We loved talking with him. Great variety of coffee and tea and the best coffee ever = Jamaican Blue Mountain. Great ice cream, snacks and Jamaican sodas.
We came back the next day for goat and ackee and salt fish for breakfast. Sooooooo good! The home made pound cakes are incredibly moist and the fried plantains are not to be missed. Highly recommend for a great, relaxed, corner store vibe. I wish Tropical Island was on my corner!

Amazing Authentic Jamaican Cafe. Blue mountain coffee from Jamaica. Service was friendly and enjoyable. Jerk chichen sandwitch was amazing. Chicken patties very taisty. Interior has lots of pics and things from Jamaica. I will be stopping here every time I pass through just to get the chicken sandwitch. Thank you for the authentic taistes of Jamaica.

By far, one of my favorite restaurants. I am way too partial to the amazing lunch specials and patties, but they have other amazing options. I saw they have roti. They treat us like family.

Really nice place to eat! Service was awesome and food tasted great. I got the Jerk chicken and it had a wonderful taste. A little spicy. Empanada was flavorful. I got a raspberry slushy and it was ok. The people there were so sweet. They kept check on me. Would definitely go back!
