Oxtail is the bomb!!! Rice and peas are also on point! It's worth the money for the taste and for the good portion

OK so my son and his GF is hyped on Jamaican food and have been scanning the area looking for the best. This spot hits above most of the others in the area. They bought me back the curried Goat with some rice (I can't even tell if it is white rice or rice and beans because of the gravy and many Jamaican spots don't use many beans.) The taste is pretty good . Now the goat is the rave. It was extremely tender and plentiful and well seasoned. PEOPLE we need more than 2 slices of plantains with a meal...why so cheap with it. Regular retail a plantain is .25-.30 US for an entire plantain so how much is it wholesale. Why so cheap with it..so weird. The tossed salad is a great addition. The cabbage,,, Why y'all throw a whole cabbage in a pot, go about your day, then come back and chop up the cabbage. Y'all need some all purpose seasoning, black pepper, grated carrots, and throw a little olive oil in that B. Otherwise many patrons will be just throwing it away. Overall a great spot. Looking forward to tasting the rest of the menu.

I never have an issue when I come here. There is always a line which is a good thing because the food is so good. The prices are reasonable as well. Parking is the only issue around there because its on a main street.

Food was okay. I ordered the jerk chicken and oxtail. The restaurant itself is clean and the employees were very friendly. I wish the chicken was actually chopped up for my jerk instead of just two big pieces of chicken but they were definitely packed with spice and flavor. The rice was tasty in both dishes. Unfortunately, the cabbage was over cooked and flavorless so I didn't eat it. The oxtail was pretty good as well, parts of it were a little rough but honestly I've had worse. I appreciated the touch of the fresh salad. It definitely lightened the heavy load of food. If I was in the area, I work be interested to go back and try some more dishes.
