This is an unassuming hole-in-the-wall buried on a little side street in East Liberty, and the food was surprisingly tasty. There are bright yellow tones in the decor, with ample sunlight flowing in, making for a pleasant lunch experience.
I ordered the small portion of the jerk chicken, which actually ended up being quite a large portion (two very sizeable chicken thighs) and came with rice, plaintains, and cabbage. The chicken seemed to be slow cook and smothered in a VERY tasty jerk sauce -- I was impressed! It was super authentic. The sides were good as well, though I wish the plaintains had been fried. I would definitely come back and have this dish again.
My friend had the oxtail entree. He liked it but says next time he would opt to try the fish.
Our server was very nice and the food was served speedily. At the end of the meal, the owner came and introduced herself and learned our names. She was super kind. Come here if you want to feel like you are literally being welcomed into someone's home and eat a delicious home-cooked meal! Don't forget - they are cash only.
