This was the best food I?ve had in a VERY long time. It was my first time having Caribbean food so I got a combo with Caribbean,... jerk, and curry chicken. The chicken was so tender and the cabbage that comes on the side is cooked and spiced perfectly. Thestaff is all very nice as well and the eating area has a great atmosphere. My cousin is gluten-free and they have so many glutenfree and vegan options so there?s something for everyone. Read more

This place deserves all the love! I haven't had Caribbean food in a very long time. The spices, flavor, and texture of the food... were incredible. I ordered the Jerk tofu, Johnny cakes, vegan mac & cheese, and plantains. All of it was amazing. The vegan mac& cheese was really impressive and if I dare say, better than dairy mac & cheese. I will be returning again and again. Glad tohave this gem of a place in the area! Read more
I've never had *real* Caribbean food before, but this was a wonderful introduction to the cuisine. We tried the Jerk Chicken,... BBQ chicken, Oxtail, Plantains, and Johnny Cakes. The Jerk seasoning was incredible with just the right spice and depth offlavor. The BBQ was a nice mild, sweet sauce that was seasoned super well. The Oxtail was super tender and flavorful, althoughthe sauce was just a tad too salty. I really enjoyed the texture of both the meat/fat and the sauce. The rice was cookedperfectly and I surprisingly enjoyed the cabbage on the side. Plantains were fine and we really liked the light sweetness andfried texture of the Johnny Cakes. Highly recommend this spot for people who haven't tried the cuisine and I'm certain longtimeenjoyers of Caribbean will love the food as well as its family-ran. Read more

Excellent food! My sister is a vegan and she loved the vegan mac n cheese. I had the curry chickpeas and they were delicious -... the sauce was perfectly spiced. Everything else we tried (drinks, plantains and lentil balls) was good too. We talked with theowners some and they are a super nice family. Read more
