What People Say

Reviewers consistently praise the authentic flavors—especially the jerk chicken, oxtail, and curry goat. The drinks, especially the rum punch and island-style cocktails, also get high marks. Many say the vibe is “chill yet lively,” and love that it feels like a hidden gem. The staff is noted for being friendly and the portions generous.

Areas for Improvement
