My husband and I came here for a quick lunch. We were referred by our cab driver. Walking in it’s self seating. On the tables they have bottles of ciroc that are filled with water. I don’t get the reason for the ciroc bottles. The waitress was very pleasant. Brought menus right over. We wanted to order an appetizer but the first thing we requested they were out of. My husband decided to go straight to the main course. I ordered curry shrimp and my husband ordered crack lobster. They didn’t have cracked lobster. Ok no problem his second choice was the grouper. Nope! No grouper. So he ordered the crack chicken with fries. The food took a long while to come out. It was only three people in the restaurant at the time, I was confused what took so long. We weren’t kept up on the progress of our food, no one checked to see if we needed anything else to drink. However our waitress was eating her lunch behind the bar. The food came out, my food looked good but my husbands looked like a kids chicken nugget meal with French fries. We weren’t impressed and his food was not good. My food was good when I added the house hot pepper sauce to it. The caps of the sauce need to be cleaned I was so weirded out touching them so I used a napkin because it was crusty stuff that could of been from many people touching the caps with food on their fingers. Ewwwww! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch
The fresh conch , the juicy and falling off the bone ribs to my absolutely fav dish was the plantaines ! The food was absolutely the best Caribbean food I've had in a very long time !
Nice place to have a lunch or breakfast. Most of the guests were local people. Few tourists. Not so excellent, but simple and local dishes. The staff was friendly and kind. A little bit slow to serve, but it was worth to be wait. If you would like to eat local food, you should visit this place. Tasty, volumy and reasonable.
Not sure I get the hype. We went during what should have been peak hours on a Saturday and we were the only people there. Absolutely nothing special about the food, waitress didn’t offer service - we had to ask for everything. She was on the phone when we walked in and she looked at us then ignored us. Didn’t offer water. We had to ask for it. Didn’t come back to check if we were ready to order - we had to call her over. We ordered two different chicken dishes and both came out room temperature. Took my daughter to the bathroom and the lights were all burnt out, and there were no windows for light. There was no soap to wash our hands. It wasn’t even that cheap either. My “crack chicken” was essentially very very thin fried chicken tenders that were mostly breading. It was $18.
Great service, local food. Thanks for going the extra mile and making me something for the plane ride home.

I had the special of steamed pork and it was delicious. Others in my party ordered off the regular menu and it was decent. We were the only people ones there and food was delivered promptly

Google said open for breakfast, but they opened at 11, the owner saw us outside at 9:15 looking confused and invited us in anyways and made us a lovely breakfast sat outside on what was essentially a private patio! Fantastic seafood omelette and coffee from someone that went above and beyond to make us welcome! Much appreciated! 🫶 Service Dine in Meal type Breakfast
Amazing experience. This place is a must. Trust me, you will not regret it. We were a party of 8 and everyone walked out happy and satisfied. The service is excellent and fast. The food is to die for. Delicious! We had the fried pork chops and the crack conch; both dishes were good.
Great local food and service. Tanya was charming and the perfect host. She made us feel so welcome and comfortable. We had a late lunch and all 4 of us were pleased with the local food and the warm vibes. Thanks Tanya!
I must be missing something. This place has such a high rating, that I am so bewildered. My husband ordered the "fall off the bone" ribs, that other people raved about. He said it was all fat and gristle, with hardly any meat. I had a fish sandwich which was like a fish fillet from a fast food place. Very unappetizing. I just don't get it.
