“ Listen, I come here almost as often as every Monday. This might be my favorite place in the city and for more reasons than one. Namely, I love the people that work here. You are taken care of and treated with warmth and respect. The food. Really doesn’t get any better. For 9 bucks or so (before tax), I get a medium jerk chicken plate with plantains and cabbage and rice and peas and the best jerk sauce there is. And when they have it, I get their pineapple ginger drink. It’s glorious. From the moment I come in to the moment I leave. Go here and enjoy it for yourself. ”
“ I've been eating here since 2016. Had everything on the menu, including my favorites: Jerk Chicken, Stew Fish, Oxtails, and all of their daily special soups. Every single one of their staff members are so kind and it's one of the main reasons I go back weekly. Today, I had the Jerk Chicken (not pictured), some of their Chili Chicken Wings, and their Chicken Soup. I noticed some new items too, which I look forward to trying next time. The next week I had some of their Jerk Salmon, Rasta Pasta, and Callaloo. They don’t miss! ”

“ I knew the food was gonna be good as soon as I looked at it. Came here with my daughter today. We got the curry goat, rice and peas, cabbage and plantains and fried chicken on the side. The curry goat was very tender and flavorful and the fried chicken was seasoned to perfection. My daughter said this was the best dinner ever and she's very picky.Yum, I hope the food is consistent in taste. 10/10 ”
