The jerk chicken was delicious and has a kick to it. The oxtails were tender and juicy. I love the portion size here. They are generous with it. I kept seeing regulars coming in and out so it must be that good. Dont mind the sketchy area. Its CASH ONLY!

Maaaaan was the food good! I tried the spicy jerk chicken and it was really good and it actually had a good kick to it. The rice and vegetables that it came with were full of flavor and the portions were decent. The plantains were actually a lil sweet to which was a great surprise!
