| - It's been on my list for EVER and finally finally finally, I can mark this off with a big fat 5 star.
When I got there, I was already prepared for the down-the-stairs, "wait, is this it?" moment. So don't expect to be blown off your toes with the decor. Inside is a clean, slightly dated look with a mirrored bar.
First off, Kim is so sweet and helpful. As my party ordered, she made sure to warn us about the Jerk Chicken Spice-o-Meter, asking each of us what our spice level was. One adventurous friend said "7"...and his eyes were watering near the end. One other friend said "3" and her dinner was sufficiently spicy by my standard! I ordered the oxtail dinner ($15), which comes with rice and peas and coleslaw. The oxtail was melting in my mouth. I'd barely had my first mouthful and I was swooning. It was SO good. Highly recommend. In fact, when I come back, I may do the unfoodie thing and order the same thing again. Each dish is made to order, so everything is freshly cooked, but takes a bit of time (15 min)
For the finale, even though we were all stuffed, because their portions are fantastic, we ordered a funnel cake to share. This funnel cake was HUGE and for $6, it was a steal! Freshly deep fried, topped with vanilla ice cream, maple syrup and blueberries and strawberries....oh goodness, it was so good. But sharing is caring - this was a big dish.
Fantastic place! Love and will keep spreading the love.
