This was first time ordering from this restaurant. I ordered the large oxtail meal! Oh so so good! Well seasoned and very flavorful! I received a generous portion size that I had some food left over for another meal. I will definitely be back to try other options!

My wife and I went to this restaurant for the first time... We definitely coming back. The Rasta Pasta, and I had the same with jerk chicken. With left there with sweet potatoe pie and 2 Patti w/ coco bread.🔥🔥
I waitress was definitely on point with everything. Excuse me if I spelled your name wrong... Ciaran, I probably butchered the name and the spelling, but she was great, and the cooks definitely are great as well. THANK YOU!!!

After suffering a traumatic experience at a tourist trap, we accidentally found this little gem of a restaurant. Pure Caribbean paradise. Excellent food, friendly and warm service. Priced fairly. And there is live music on Thursdays!!! Absolutely unbeatable. Try their jerk wings and ox tails.

Love Ms Sonya, the owner.

It was my first time trying this place out and I was satisfied with everything the food was well seasoned and full of flavor.I ordered the medium size oxtail,white rice and steamed veggies with side of mac and cheese.The price is reasonable and you get a lot of food eat some now save some for later. Their food look just like the picture that's displayed outside the restaurant. The atmosphere inside is very comfortable,relaxing and clean everyone was so nice great customer service. I definitely will be returning 10 out of 10 I recommend

I have not had much experience with Jamaican food. Tonight, we went to Taste of the Islands, across the street from Citadel Mall. My gosh, this was an experience. Conch fritters - amazing. So tender, flavorful, crispy. Curry Chicken Patty (pastry) - so flaky, and flavorful in a way we don't usually eat. Braised oxtail...... so rich, deep, spiced without being spicy, coats your mouth with intoxicating umami, beefy, fatty.... I could go on. If you want an experience... I highly recommend this place. To top if off, our waitress was incredibly friendly, learned all our names, took care of us like we were cousins...... Absolutely highly recommend!

Great service. Smiling faces and hospitable too. We ordered 3 large oxtail meals with rice and peas, steamed vegetables and plantains and beef patties. The oxtails, beef patties and veggies were delicious. The rice and plantains were a little overcooked. We will definitely return for the oxtails. Also, try the Sorrel Ginger juice it’s tasty.
