One of those meals I feel like I should have paid more for the given quality and amount. My friend and I split a half Jerk chicken over rice & beans, potato salad and plantains. Jerk chicken was impressively moist, appropriately salty and well seasoned; the runny jerk sauce on the side provided some extra kick; the skin charred black from the grill. Rice & peas were soft and equally flavorful. Conch fritters' mix was tasty and fried well without dripping in grease although a few had possibly overcooked, rubbery conch bits. Otherwise it was a good batter. My friend from Chicago has been coming for years and you can tell from the decor and space. They have some beautiful black & white photographs worthy of a gallery show. No vibe is the vibe—a good sign. This place is a gem.

I called my food in, and she told me, "Gimme 20 minutes hun" Hung up the phone. I ordered the jerk wing and breast with macaroni and yams. I walk in, and it's a One Woman show!! I tell you it's a man sitting down eating his food peacefully, my food is waiting on me nice and hot and she greats me with a nice "Hello" all and all very quick interaction and I paid $21 for meal which is not bad at all. When I say THE BEST food I've had in a while, this has to be someone's mother or grandmother working magic in the kitchen, and her secrets must be passed down! Marconi?? Fire, really cheesy, and she gave me a lot. And the yams?? To die for, anyone who loves soul food knows about the combination. I normally don't even really like jerk sauce, but they got something different going on! Chicken is super juicy and tender, and the sauce was delicious, I wish I had got another container. 20/10 would definitely come back agian when I'm in the area. Won't be disappointed. This was my first time there as well.

Love love love the plantain! Perfectly cooked and sweet. I made a believer out of a local with their Jerk wings and Tacos! I'm from Wisconsin and hadn't been there in years and it's still good! I was sort of bummed that they were out of pig tails but I was still a happy camper with the food that I had.

Delicious food, generous portions, and friendly service. We've been going here for years, and the order is always exactly like we want. The Carribean jerk chicken is one of the many highlights off their menu.

Delicious Belizean meals and dishes, portions are always perfect and fill you up. The restaurant has a lot of information about Belize and it's food culture. Jerk chicken, stewed chicken, plantains, rice, and Mac are the go-to choices for me

Food was heavenly. We ordered the jerk chicken family pack with rice and beans, Mac and cheese, and fried plantains; Belizean chicken stew, panades, and king fish with cabbage. While we waited for our order some weird guy came in complaining about nonsense. The staff handled it professionally and much better than I would've. Afterwards, the staff approached us to apologize. There really was no need as they were not in the wrong. We were given a slice of caramel cake for our inconvenience. Again, not needed, but good God, the caramel was silky and warm, and the sponge was fluffy and moist. Would honestly go back for the cake alone. Flavorful chicken, portions were generous, plantains were sweet not oily, Mac and cheese was better than most. Everything was super tasty. Highly recommend. 🙏

I ordered from Uber Eats, I asked for it to be beautiful and they over exceeded my expectations. My first time trying this restaurant, it was so flavorful, hot and fresh! It hit my taste buds and is my new favorite!

Best grill chicken in town, a special recipe from Belize “Jerk Chicken” has an amazing blend of spices. The sides compliment the chicken. Even though the restaurant is not fancy but the quality of food and taste makes you forget where you are. They have a take out option and you can easily warm it up for the same taste as its served fresh at the restaurant
