I have visited many Jamaican restaurants in Brooklyn, and for some reason, every time I buy at this particular establishment, the jerk chicken is incredibly moist and delicious. It tastes authentic. Whatever you all are doing, keep it up!

The food is exquisite, and the owner/staff were exceptionally friendly. I utilized a Too Good to Go bag, and they managed it as efficiently as any regular order. I'll definitely revisit and happily pay the full price; it's genuinely worth every penny.

The food is delicious and the owner/worker was very nice. I actually grabbed a Too Good to Go bag and he treated it as a regular order. I would definitely go back here and pay full price it is worth it.

Many times I ordered from them. I’ve tried them from too good too go one time. I received like a sample.I saw fish and I was scared. I tried it and now I’m going to order from them as much as possible. Macaroni salad is most definitely very good and the plantains are the best in town. A little spit on the vegetables because of the jalapeno that I never like with out spices I like. What was left on my order was fish bones and jalapeno and the other small round spice. I think customer service is on point. Delicious.

I came here with a friend who lives in the neighbourhood, when I was in the restaurant and ordering he was laughing, well the lady behind the counter was very sweet with me. When it came to the sides she asked if I wanted plantain. I was like what is that. She smiles and said I’ll give you two side. When we got back to our unit. My friend was like. Wow she likes you a lot she gave us a lot of food, We ordered the jerk chicken. It was nice not dry at all it had lots of flavour. I LOVED THE OXE TAIL. It was so tender and full of flavour. Goes really well with the rice and beans. I highly recommend this restaurant. If you smile and be polite they treat you nicely. To the lady behind the counter thank you for being sweet and nice to me I’m the white Australian girl. It made me enjoy your services and food. THANK YOU

I went in there to order a small rice to go with my food I made. I lost my debit card and was waiting for my dad to cash app me money since the bank was closed. He was was taking a little long to send the money. I only had 3.50 in cash. The rice was 5. The young gentleman was very kind and sold it for 3.50. He didn’t have to do that and he did & I appreciate it. While it may be a small gesture to anyone else , it’s the kind heart he has that is amazing. Thank you so much . Happy holidays and I hope you are blessed with everything your heart desires.
