| - I have zero negative comments about this restaurant, give or take their website design, but that is just personal taste. My boyfriend lives down the street from this place and I had wanted to try it since it opened, and finally we went. The atmosphere is pleasant, with warm colored walls and Caribbean art, and reggae playing from the speakers. Menu is very diverse, there are a ton of different styles of cooking, from osso bucco (12.95) to curry goat (8.95) , sandwiches (most are 5.95), pastas (8.95-11.95), and steak (14.95). The food is quite reasonable for the portion size, with the most expensive dish being 15.95 (Salmon). The average entree costs between $8 and $13. The food is delicious- everything is made from scratch by the chef, who personally came out to our table to introduce himself after cooking our meals, and was very friendly, along with the waiter. We both tried the oxtail entree ($8.95), which comes with rice and peas and steamed vegetables; it was the best oxtail I have ever tried; the meat is insanely tender and flavorful, and the oxtail gravy accompanying the meat is excellent as well. The desserts are also all made in house, we tried the carrot cake and the tiramisu (both 4.95). Both desserts were perfectly moist, and the carrot cake was a huge portion which is totally awesome. You can tell this stuff is made by someone who cares about the food that they cook, and you can tell that everything is made from scratch, which makes it an even better deal. For two mains, two drinks, and two desserts, our bill came to $38 including tax and tip. I strongly recommend checking this place out.
