    Energetic ambiance & authentic Jamaican cuisine! Jerk wings, Oxtail Mac & Cheese, and egg roles for starters. Our table ordered family style. Service time was excellent - we placed our order without hesitation or delay.

    We waited for our food over a hr. The waiter visited us once. When we finally received food it was hot on the outside cold on the inside. Over priced for what I received. Bad quality. The restaurant was too dark to even see what I was eating. 5/10 do not recommend

    Upon arrival we were not greeted or welcomed in. The ordering became a bit confusing as we were told during ordering that certain items ran out when I feel we should of been told in advance. I ordered the jerk chicken wings which was accompanied by the rice and cabbage. While my date ordered the oxtail plate. The rice was extremely dry for both my date and I, as he had to ask for extra sauce for the rice. His oxtail plate came with 4 oxtails that looked like they were made for a toddler. The waiter did not look like he wanted to do his job but was just there. The lighting was too dark as I couldn’t read the menu as well as the font on the menu was a bit small. The whole experience and food was a 0/10 I will not be returning but I hope they take something into consideration for future customers thank you! Oh and they automatically add gratuity to your total other than that I would not have tipped!

    Will not be coming back. An hour long wait for our food. All guests in the building were nearly screaming at the top of their lungs the entirety of time we were there. I understand having fun with friends but also having the restaurants music blaring throughout the room, made any normal conversation close to impossible. We appreciate the chef for all the hard work but the food lacked flavor all together and the prices were high for the food that was given. If it’s a birthday and all you want is a $55 alcohol punch bowl, hookah and what seemed to be a half time show, then this place is for you.

    My friends and I came here on a Tuesday after work, and were seated right away. The restaurant is really cute, and the music is even better. Even though the food and drinks were really delicious, the reason I had to drop the rating was because we were charged full price for the items we ordered that were on the happy hour menu. We didn’t realize it until later when we looked at our receipts and compared it to their posted happy hour menu.
    (abeautifullife) Jamaican KitchenResponded on March 4, 2025
    Hello, our apologies, our happy hour menu is usually for special event or certain occasions, however, we are so glad you enjoyed yourself and the food. We hope that you join us again, sorry for any confusion
