Came here with a friend that likes Caribbean food.
She had wanted to try their Acke and salt fish since this summer's Caribbean Festival in the old port, they made her wait for 2 hours, promising that it was on it's way from their downtown restaurant. For some reason if they were to cook it on the spot it could be dangerous...?!
So she gave up and ate something else which wasn't great.
Our visit to their restaurant wasn't much better.
The cook/owner/waiter/DJ...seemed bothered by our presence, my friend asked for the achy and salt fish and was told they were out!
They were sold out for the day!
They just opened up one hour earlier and there was 6 people in the dinning room!
Wow! Sold out in an hour!
After about 10 minutes he returned to tell her that they had just enough for one plate!
I guess they must have found some through the garbage or on the floor?
Oh wow! Thank you so much!
Ridiculous.
This is Kitchen Nightmare candidate!
I ate a tiny and tasteless chicken roti.
Ambiance here sucks.
Staff sucks.
Climbing up the stairs sucks.
Never again.
Boom J's in Lasalle will always be my favorite place to get a HUGE juicy spicy jerk chicken roti.
Sorry but when you feel unwelcome by the staff and their food isn't any better, it's hard to give more than 2 stars.
