| - Great local spot to get some Caribbean and American food fusion cooking!
First, they make some nice fresh ice teas here. Very refreshing.
Onto the food:
Grilled plantains with honey - Very tasty, actually sweet and with a kick of spice to it too.
Jamaican Jerk Chicken Salad - Awesome! The salad has a great citrus dressing with the fresh mix of vegetables. The moist and flavorful jerk chicken is like icing on top of a cake!
Butterfish daily special with spicy aioli and fresh vegetables - Butterfish was grilled perfectly and melts in your mouth. The grilled vegetables and roasted potatoes compliment it well.
Vegetable curry with cous cous - The curry is a bit sweet for my taste but that being said it does pair well with the vegetables and cous cous.
Chicken bow tie pasta - Overall the dish is pretty good, the best part is the pasta, vegetables, and sauce. The chicken we had didn't have much flavor, but the pasta sauce helped carry it.
Jerk Chicken - The jerk chicken here is great, very moist and flavorful. It does lean toward the spicier side, but I love spicy dishes so this was a great dish in my opinion.
Desserts here are always a joy:
Goatcheese Pumpkin cheesecake - At first it worried me that the goat cheese would overpower the pumpkin, it's definitely there but not as strong as you would think. Pretty good for the most part.
Chocolate peanut butter cake - This is pretty awesome! The peanut butter mousse is great and provides a lighter flavor to match the more dense chocolate cake. Great taste!
Red Velvet cake - This wasn't bad, but a bit on the dry side for my taste when I got it.
Carrot Cake - Awesome! Very flavorful!
Chocolate cake - Very decadent, but not bad. I love chocolate so all those layers of chocolate just gel very well.
Service is really good here too, very attentive and they are all friendly.
On Sunday they have a popular brunch, typically it's super busy so set aside some time to wait for the brunch. Occasionally they do themed brunches there too.
