Amazing place! The patties were the best we ever had. They took a while to make since they make it fresh, but worth it for sure. Warm and flaky they were so moist and just the right amount of heat. Curry goat was also amazing. Great portion, great spice level and the platter was tons of food.

First time having the pleasure of trying the food here! Had the escovitch fish and the snapper was amazing. Food was fresh and made to perfection. Owner and chef is also very kind and down to earth. Highly recommended

The soul food and words of wisdom that come out of this place is surreal. Spent a good half an hour chopping it up with the owner himself . Fantastic dude, great food . Got 2 of the best beef patties I’ve ever had the pleasure of enjoying . God bless and much thanks fresh food made to order, worth the wait! 5 STARS ⭐

Picked up three platters for dine in. The curry goat, the oxtail, and the fried chicken were all solid and very delicious (the group agreed that the chicken was the standout though). Patties were delicious as well. Rice was not too flavourful and the other sides were just okay. But otherwise, a very delicious meal. Only strikes against this place is just that the food takes a while to come out and they're debit/cash only. But otherwise, would absolutely order here again.

My wife and I ordered the Goat Roti Platter and the Oxtail Platter. Both meals were amazing. We decided to eat inside the restaurant and we were treated to Jamaican music by the chef. The macaroni pie was a delicious surprise. We will definitely be back.

I ate here recently and really enjoyed the jerk chicken. While I got the sense this is mostly a takeout place, I sat at one of the two tables inside. Not only was the chicken delicious, the fried plantain, beans, and rice were good too.
