I’ve order for the past two days the chicken and beef soup because I’ve been sick. It is some of the best Jamaican soup I’ve had in awhile that’s really good besides home . I appreciate you guys reaching out for my Uber eats order letting me know that it was going to be awhile. The little things always count and go a long way. I will definitely continue to order and try different things on the menu and refer you all to people who are looking for some top quality Jamaican eats. Bless up.

Excellent customer service. Delicious oxtails and the very best Red Snapper and Seafood rice that I’ve ever tasted in my life. Now I want to eat here every week.

Ordered the oxtail with rice and peas and steamed cabbage. The cabbage had fish in it, which I’ve personally never had before like that, and it was amazing. The oxtail was superb. Chicken foot soup was amazing too. Definitely a legit spot
