    The beef patties were delicious and had good filling. The cocoa bread was so fluffy and soft. And the pepper steak was so tender even after waiting awhile to eat. The rice was flavorful and the cabbage was cooked to perfection, not too mushy or overcooked.

    THE SOUP!!! The soup is a 10/10. I come here all the time specifically for the soup and it never disappoints! The quality, taste and spice is perfect. I’ve gotten other items as well and it’s always good. Definitely worth the visit.

    I ordered the jerk sandwhich with nothing on it except meat. Delicious. The bread is freshly made. I also ordered the riceNpeas with cabbage. Put some pepper steak sauce on top and a little scotch bonnet 🙌🏽🥹 The flavors didn’t disappoint. Will definitely be coming back here.

    I had a medium jerk chicken meal and usually I will have leftovers (I usually eat small portions) but I ate the ENTIRE plate. It was really tasty as well as fast and friendly service from the young man at the counter. Prices are reasonable. This was my first time here and I’ll definitely be back.
