Small little Caribbean restaurant that had a great overall menu from the islands and their dishes did not disappoint. I had the Pineapple Bowl, which included seasoned chicken and shrimp, with Pineapple, rice, and other vegetables, all served in a half pineapple. Good flavor and not over powering in seasoning. A coworker who is vegan found this place during our travels for us to try. Only has 10 or so tables but is on OpenTable and we had no problem later in the evening to get a table and enjoy a meal that was served promptly, fresh and with flavor. My coworker loved her vegan options and dish also.

1st time there, and was not disappointed. The margarita was perfect. My husband had the crab stuffed tilapia. I had the special: pork tenderloin medallions. Both were very good. Service was great too. Next time I need to try the fried egg sandwich!

One of the best Caribbean restaurants in Columbus! From the food to the service to the atmosphere! My wife and I went for our Anniversary and because my wife is vegan, they have lots of vegan options for her! The owners are so nice and it really felt like we were in St. Thomas! This place gets 5 stars and we will be back soon.

This place was a great hole-in-the-wall island get away. The background ocean waves sound and reggae music set you up for delicious entrees. Awesome use of spices and other flavors, big servings, and very affordable. The service was attentive and very friendly. There is a full bar. Definitely save room for dessert - key lime pie and cinnamon plantains with maple dip among other options to finish off your island escape!

Excellent little out of the way place with the friendliest of service and delicious Caribbean food. The pineapple boat is definitely a recommendation: pork, shrimp, rice and beans all in an exotic seasoning mix with just enough spice to be interesting. They also offer nice selection of shareables and desserts. And you may want to check out their $7 daily specials, especially for a quick to go.

Fantastic! Came here for dinner before the Kiss concert for our anniversary. Clean establishment. Relaxed atmosphere. Made me think of a like a classy island restaurant, yet with a casual vibe. We were promptly greeted upon entrance. I am gluten free & our server was knowledgable of the gluten free selections. She was very pleasant as well! The bartender was friendly too! My husbands expectations of the gumbo & Jambalaya were exceeded! I thoroughly enjoyed the mango chicken with Red Hook potatoes instead of the black bean rice. Thank you for such tastefully delicious dishes! We will return and tell everyone we know!

So flavorful! We had some yummy strong drinks, plantains, Caribbean bean soup, a tuna entree, and vegan jambalaya. With happy hour pricing on the drinks we spent less than $50. Service was attentive and prompt, even on a holiday. Lots of vegan options!!

Nice little Caribbean place hidden away in an industrial area. Went with a group from work and the service was wonderful. A friend got the Jambalaya and said it was delicious. I had BBQ Shrimp and it was very tasty, although the shrimp were a little overcooked. The Red Hook Potatoes are AMAZING. Will be back for sure!

This is my all time #1 favorite Restaurant. The food is great. They cater to many tastebuds. Offer vegetarian and vegan dishes. If you need gluten free, they have that too. The Mac n Cheese is amazing. My favorite thing is the grilled pita add chicken. Yummy.
