This place was great. The establishment is quaint and seats 32 people. The music fits the culture and vibe while being appropriate. The bathrooms were clean! HALLELUJAH! I ordered the BBQ jerk chicken w/ rice & beans. My husband ordered the regular jerk chicken w/ rice & beans. We shared both and both were equally DELICIOUS. The portion size was good. We would have loved more rice. The chicken was juicy. Presentation was well put together (and all edible praise the Lord!) Wait time for the food was under 15 minutes. The jerk seasoning was great and the rice...seasoned to PERFECTION. Our server was Tracey, she was sweet and very polite. We even got warm sanitizing towels for our hands upon arrival which felt like a spa service. The manager, Aneika, checked on everyone. Overall we had great experience. We highly recommend.

First time at this restaurant visiting from Miami. The best Jamaican food I’ve ever tried. I had the jerk bbq ribs and rice and peas as my main meal. The meat fell right off the bones, the mac & cheese was delicious and the steamed cabbage was awesome. Anika our server was the sweetest, great customer service here. Next time you’re in Tampa, this restaurant is definitely worth a try and worth the wait.

Thank you so much for letting us order right before you had to close. The food is AMAZING! we had the jerk chicken plate and the jerk pork plate. We enjoyed the pork better unfortunately the chicken was overcooked either way the flavors were on point.???????????????? We will definitely be coming back ❤️
