"The food is good they really just need to work on their customer service they are not very friendly at all and a couple times I went there and they were supposed to be open but had no food ready and I was almost late off my lunch break because I had to quickly find somewhere else to eat other than that I would recomend to eat here"

"The food was definitely official my 1st time coming but the prices and how the charge extra for different sides was a little outta pocket. I got oxtail, mac n cheese, yams. I was charge for yams and Mac extra. The Mac was definitely homemade. Customer Service was horrible, the light skin lady very rude I ask 2 questions she kept saying do you want the food or not. I said yes twice. There's too many jamaican spots or food spots for that to be treated rude."

"Great food! It's the only place I go to for Carribean Cuisine. Great staff, healthy servings and the food is always piping hot and delicious. Family oriented staff,courteous service and great prices! I love the jerk chicken, it is amazing! They are very accommedating! Just picked up some jerk chicken to go, but I ended up eating some there because I could'nt wait to go home, as usual! You have to try this place because they sell out quick and close early. I always go early so I get the pick of the litter! Lol"
