| - The person that took me here (for my first time) seemed to be a regular because the owner greeted us and welcome back my friend. It was pretty full (no 2-seaters) except the one by the door with a reserve sign on top. She immediately told us to sit down and she removed the reserve sign for us. That was a nice and welcoming surprise.
My friend suggested the "jerk chicken" and since the chef is Jamaican, I knew I couldn't go wrong. We both got the jerk chicken, and I gotta say, I don't think any of us tried to make conversation until we finished.
The jerk chicken was cooked perfectly and the chicken was so juicy, flavourful and simply delicious. I've only ever had jerk chicken a few other times (in Turks & Caicos Island), but hands down, this was better (not as dry or burnt).
The place is pretty hidden and you gotta walk down a few steps to its main entrance, but even then, it's door front is curtained all in black and all you really see is non-lit sign "Under the Table" with a bright fluorescent OPEN sign. Other than that, you wouldn't know what a gem this place is.
Once we walked in, it felt homey, looked homey, and most importantly, it was packed.
This was a fun experience and I'm glad my friend took me here. But as for me (no car) I found it harder to get to using TTC! (So please open up another one more central please!)
I'd definitely go back, and maybe next time I will try something different ;)
