    I’ve had another location before, but I was really excited about eating here being that it’s now so close to home. The food was overall good, it met my expectations. However our waitress needed more training. She was very forgetful/clueless. There were also some discrepancies with the menu and pricing. Be sure to review your checks before leaving because they will slap items on your bill that you didn’t receive!! I would rate this location 7/10

    The food is nothing short of outstanding, showcasing bold and authentic Caribbean flavors in every bite. From perfectly seasoned jerk chicken to rich, aromatic chicken curry, amazing chicken pineapple fried rice is a celebration of the islands. The service is equally impressive; the staff is attentive, friendly, and eager to make your experience unforgettable. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. Highly recommend!
