I visited this place for the first time in about 2 years. They have definitely fallen off. I ordered a large order of oxtails... and was disappointed to find only 4 oxtails in my order. Mind. you, a large order on the menu costs 14 dollars, however, I wascharged 24 dollars and told that the menu prices haven't been updated. Being a Brooklyn, NY native, Jamaican cuisine isplentiful but not in New Jersey. No competition leaves us at their mercy. The food was more sweet than anything else. Not agood look. Read more
Even ordering over phone then driving 20min to pick up food I wait usually another 15-20 min. The young lady is pleasant to look... at, yet she consistently ignores customers as she chats or check phone. Been there 3 times since January and waiting for foodto be cooked is the norm. The food is tasty, yet only extra ordinary... not extraordinary. Sorry. Read more
I've been going here for years..mostly because they're the only place that sells decent West Indian food in the area. I suspect... the business has survived because of a lack of competition. I've never had a bad food experience with them and have no issueswith the quality of the food. My chief issue is that they do not offer online ordering. The location is in a very busy part ofNew Brunswick so parking is always a problem. They went to a cash-only model, which is really antiquated. Thank goodness there'sa bank right across the street. A lot of the negative reviews about in-person customer service, parking and wait times can besolved by allowing people to order using Uber Eats, DoorDash, etc. P.S. the spotty availability of plantain for a West Indianeatery is truly shocking.

Love this little Caribbean shop in the college strip by Rutgers which is riddled with cheap college student aimed food... everywhere and that's where this place shines. Delicious Jamaica proud authentic dishes served here and it is delicious!!! I'vebeen coming here for about 6 years and they are what you expect from a Caribbean restaurant. Very friendly staff and I havenever had even a mediocre dish. A few competing places nearby but this one is the best in the area. Probably in Middlesex! Read more
