I?ve past this establishment numerous times and today my curiosity got the better of me. Amongst all the Jamaican spots in this... area I was seeking something new, maybe I?d even found a diamond in the rough? I was wrong. If as a Jamaican restaurant youcan?t nail down a good jerk chicken (every place is different and tastes will vary) then you need to go back to the drawingboard. I played it safe and grabbed the ?jerk chicken? sandwich and what I got was something very close to supermarketrotisserie chicken with a lil? kick. First I waited close to 15 minutes for a sandwich that was room temperature at best. Now Iknow that everything has its place but there was no need for there to be mayonnaise anywhere near that sandwich and growing upin an island household I never saw it incorporated into any of the staple meals so again I think they should pass on the mayoand focus on their seasonings. Sadly this was my first and last time eating here. Word to the wise. If you have a place thatyou frequent when you need to get your Jamaican food fix, go there or try someplace else. Read more
First time coming into this restaurant after noticing it for years. Ordered jerk chicken meals for my family. I like how they... provide the jerk sauce on the side so you can add how much you want depending on how spicy you want it. The food was delicious.Restaurant is clean. Read more
The food taste fresh but no real jerk taste no spice it tasted like regular bake chicken to me. Didn't enjoy the chicken at all... the rice was good but my soda spilled all in the bag. I wouldn't recommend or ever go back. Read more
I ordered from From here on Uber eats and I must say I was unsatisfied. The quality of the food overall I had no problem with.... But the portion was beyond ridiculous. How can you expect someone to spend $25 on takeout/delivery and it wasn?t even enough forme and my 7 year old. I ended up having to order something else because I barely ate after feeding my daughter. Both of us donot eat that much to begin with. I can say because of the portion size I would not order from de islands again Read more
The food and customer service was great. This is the first time I had cassava fries and it was great but you need to eat it hot.... The festival, especially when it is hot, is delicious. Read more
Serving very small portions of food for big bucks. Baby fish, pint of rice & 1 festival for 20 bucks? Went elsewhere right after... and got some jerk chicken generous amount & tasty and festivals for $1 a piece. Place used to be good years ago, not anymore.Other Caribbean spots out there selling food at a reasonable price and delicious. Read more
