| - I came here upon the recommendation of a friend but I have to admit, I had a misassumption about the menu. I thought I was coming to a Jamaican restaurant, serving all the classic Jamaican dishes and more. Instead, they serve mostly Canadian comfort food with a few Jamaican dishes, such as Ackee and Saltfish, Oxtail, and a few Jerk Chicken variations. They also have an all day brunch menu. The chef is Jamaican.
I had the soup of the day, which happened to be beef, and the Oxtail dinner. The soup, although not the Jamaican style that I was hoping for, tasted pretty good. It had a lot of substance, the way I like my soups, instead of a watery broth.
The Oxtail (15.00), served with rice and peas and salad, was a very generous serving. It was fall-off-the-bone tender and rich with flavour. Very good. I would order this again.
The atmosphere is cozy, the service is good, and I enjoyed the food. I would consider coming here again if I was in the area.
