I will say this... Their food is pretty good! If you're craving Jamaican food in Cary this is your only place to go. While the food is decent - expect to wait for it to be made if it is available. It is a small establishment with a very small skeleton crew of staff. They definitely need help in there but I understand that finding employees is difficult and maintaining the consistency of the products is equally challenging Yesterday I waited an hour for my food. There's nowhere to dine in because they have the dining room closed. And there's nowhere to sit and wait for your food so standing or waiting in your car is your only option. I came here because I know the food is good and though it is the only place in Cary I didn't feel like driving to the next town. In hindsight I could have drove to the next town got in my food and been home eating it in the same amount of time I waited for my food to be prepared here. There were four other people that waited just as long for food. A few of

This is our favorite Jamaican restaurant in the area. It is family-owned and the sisters that run the restaurant are so friendly. We always get the brown stewed chicken with cabbage, rice , peas and plantains. The chicken is so tender and always falls off the bone. The restaurant is tucked in a shopping complex in Cary near a few barber shops and cell phone shop. We call in the order and pick it up.

I was really craving some Jamaican food and discovered this place near me. Went and ordered a lot of food.....I was so disappointed when I got home. I ordered jerk chicken, curried goat, and oxtails..... jerk chicken was bland (never had that before because jerk is highly flavorful), the oxtail and goat was not pleasant at all.....the rice and peas was the best part of the food i got. I'd recommend trying another Jamaican food place.
