    Food is good I came here twice. Both times I enjoyed myself the service can take a little longer due to it getting crowded but overall a good experience.

    Came here just for drinks only. 2 glass of baileys cost me $50 with an auto gratuity of 18%. Apparently this JAMAICAN establishment doesn’t carry a standard size bottle of baileys; they charge $10 per nip and use 2 nips per drink. I was not informed prior to ordering and will not be returning.
