I ordered a soup from UberEats. It said soup of the day, nothing specified but I ordered anyway because I just wanted soup. The soup tasted like 100% oil. I tried mixing it around, I tried throwing the oil off, it still tasted the same. I could not drink that. I was VERY disappointed, annoyed and angry. I still do not know what type of soup that was because it had no taste and I could not make out what type of meat that was. Money wasted. Stomach upset! I will NEVER order from this place again. The only good thing they have is the macaroni salad. Everything else is trash.
I was really trying to love this place as I was looking for a new spot. My very first time was last week Thursday. I ordered the Jerk chicken with rice n peas n a side of the macaroni salad. Very tasty and the portion and presentation was amazing. It was on my mind that I went back Sunday and ordered the same thing. Well I don't know if the server (didn't see him the first time I was there) heard me say a kids meal and even other ppls plates I saw him putting together seemed as if he was trying to 'stretch' the food. When I got home I saw he put 3 little knuckle sized pieces of chicken and one leg that looked like it was from a Cornish hen. And I'm not sure where he scraped up the rice from . I was immediately turned off. All I can say from this experience is that I'll just go there mid week or I might have to find a new spot.
I WAS a frequent customer here. The food here is good, not great, but good. The prices were decent and most recently the prices have increased, in addition to the attitude from staff. The light skin older Jamaican lady has terrible customer service skills. Her attitude is stinker than the fry fish. She is cold, and wicked. Her tone is sharper than knifes. Her eyes are like daggers to your chest. Deadly. I had to flee to the halal restaurant next door. Customer service is very important to the experience of purchasing food. I’ve tried my best to deal with the attitude of this lady on numerous occasions. BUT today, is the end of this bully. Dear customer you deserve better! Take your business elsewhere.
