We thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The food was excellent, however the men from our party would have appreciated a more Jamaicanised portion size. Lol but we will for sure be back

The ambience was excellent and the environment clean. Our server was top notch and the food was also very good. Went for our 24th wedding anniversary and that surprise at the end with dessert where the staff ROKed us out was great. Would recommend to anyone for a nice spot to chill with friends or spouse.

I celebrated in an intimated setting. Everything was excellent. The ambience was immaculate. Our server Garvin was awesome. Service was quick. Meals were hot and delicious. The staff surprised me by singing 'Happy Birthday' to me. I was pleasantly surprised. To how surprised l was, l didn't get to video it . But it was great. I will be visiting soon.
