I love this place!!! I’ve been there twice already and both times everything was great. The customer service is amazing, the environment is warm and welcoming and the food is so delicious. Did I forget to mention that the portion sizes are filling?. I would recommend this place if you are looking for some good authentic Jamaican food. I had the Jerk chicken one time and the other time I had Fried chicken and they never disappoint. 10/10. Don’t hesitate to stop here and thank me later 😃
