| - Wow, what a great place. This is the epitome of a hole in the wall, but the guy running the place is super nice and friendly. Credit card machine wasn't working and he told me where the closest ATM was. It had a $1 fee and he gave me a $1 discount off my food without even asking!
There's only one table on the inside. Probably take your food to go if it's cold outside. There's a patio with a decent amount of seating in front of the restaurant. The menu has quite a few options, check out my photos of it. Judging by the tape over the menu, It seems like it changes quite a bit or some items are seasonal (there was a grill on the outside, maybe some taped off items involved that?). I didn't try it but they had sweet potato pie if you have a sweet tooth (wasn't on the main menu). They also had a few Jamaican sodas. The menu has a good variety of dishes and some you won't find anywhere else.
From what I've gathered, the food is authentic Jamaican home style cooking. It was delicious, but make sure you're ready for those bones! I got a "small" goat curry and a large braised oxtails to share with my wife. I love goat in general and the goat curry was great. It wasn't as strong as Indian curry, but it was still very flavorful. The braised oxtails were excellent as well. Both were served with a side of cabbage, rice, and beans. I don't know how to explain the cabbage, but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.
I'll be back for sure.
