Delicious food and kind, friendly service! The mac&cheese is amazing and we loved the goat curry and jerk chicken. The sauce to dip that came with the jerk chicken was crazy! Really enjoyed our meal

On 7/28/2026 Ethan Wodzinski had this to say:
Went here on my birthday and was absolutely amazing. Food tasted amazing and they had Jamaican reggae playing while they were preparing your food. The restaurant had a small area out back where you could sit either in the shade or in the sun and enjoy. There were smokers out back aswell where you could see them cook all the jerk chicken. I got the lunch special for $12 and it was amazing, I got jerk chicken, rice and beans, cabbage, plantains, and of course jerk sauce.
