Taste Of The Island

This was my first time in here. Super cool spot for a quick lunch. Really good food. I got the oxtail. Came stacked on a pile of rice with some beans in it. The gravy with the ox tail was absolutely delicious. Fine eating! But it's kinda a rough spot and if you're unfamiliar with downtown Jackson it may not be the place for you. But damn was it good

My husband and I went out in search of nice Caribbean food, only to be sorely disappointed. I can make my curries and doubles a lot better than this at home! Doubles are not meant to be a sandwich! The food was not at all like we were expecting. Terrible, and I hate to break it to you all, this is not anywhere near Jerk chicken like they cook in the Caribbean! I should know since my husband is from there and I learned how to cook my own dishes from locals, his mom, etc. We will keep Searching, but do not waste your time! I’ll just make food at home for that price and disappointment.

Food has always been good, flavor-wise, but never filling. I never thought much of it because the prices were exceptional. I went there last week to find that the prices has increased but the servings size has decreased. Sad that I have to let this place go but I'll find another place for those prices and low serving sizes. Never again..

Food is not as good as it was back several years ago. And now that they've switched to Square, make sure you see the final ticket. The cashier didn't ask me to sign anything or for a gratuity amount. I checked my card online when I got home, and instead of being charged $11.50, I was charged $28.50. I don't know if he put the guy in front of me on my tab covertly (never saw him pay) or if he just gave himself a big gratuity. But it was a pain having to dispute and I'm certain was not an accident.
