Oxtails and Jerk Chicken are a great combo. Waitress was nice but not the best at what she does. And kitchen was out of all kinds of stuff. Great visit, definitely would go again.

Amazing jerk chicken , and best stewed cabbage I’ve ever had. Brown stew chicken , mixed veggies , and curry chicken are okay. Service is incredibly slow so I’ll just order for pickup next time.

The curry shrimp is amazing! A bit spicy but not too much. The location is nice as well, close to the Museum District so it’s a nice restaurant after a long day of seeing great things. - Social News Network
