Shady looking area and the same lady was preparing food, serving and handling money. Food was delicious and I will go back. Portions are nice size too.

Food is amazing! About as authentic as it gets outside of the island itself for this city! Super chill laid back dine-in atmosphere! Staff is great and super friendly!(Pic is Large curry chicken meal)

This food is so good. My man threw away my leftovers (only some food left because of the generous portion size) by accident and I teared up when I realized that my food was gone. I literally got it out of the trash and I’m gonna eat it anyway (it was in a box)

The jerk chicken is amazing as usual and everything is seasoned perfectly with just the right amount of spice. The staff was very nice and service was quick. This will always be one of my favorite places.

Once again, this place didnt fail me. I came in 7pm. The place was half full. I sat at the counter no longer than 2 minutes before the lovely lady said "Cabbage or Beans and rice?" AI responded "I just want your oxtails and throw your jerk sauce on it". She smiled, laughed and produced. I told her that I only wanted the oxtail and jerk sauce because I was going to add it to my crab legs. I also expressed to her that the food here great to me. Why do I keep going back? 1, the food. 2, the host/lady up front whos attentive, 3, the cooks be cooking!
