This review is just for the curry chicken… 10/10. Soo good and well seasoned, not overly seasoned, full of gravy/juice and it’s not dry. There were some bones but that seems to be common in everyone’s curry chicken dish that I’ve ever had but The spice is just right. I’ve went to quite a few Jamaican places in Richmond and they have the best curry chicken in my opinion

I went there yesterday to pick stew Chicken and Oxtail both large. After going home and opening the food I was shocked, every piece of meat was all fats and One large potato with 80% of the plate being rice and cabbage. The stew Chicken honestly had a lot of oil fats that made the chicken disgusting. I called back and explained, the lady who served me was so rude and said return the food and get a full refund, but she had a condition attached to it, make sure the food is untouched. So my question was, how did I know the food was not good if I didn't pick a piece of meat or chicken. The lady charged me $ 46 for the food, never got a refund and never God any better food or any compensation. This is very bad and poor customer service. I don't recommend this place to anyone who cares about their food and their money.

So.... let me just say I like doing Google reviews because I want to help people like me who are looking for good places near them. I say this with love because there is so much potential. Service- frankly I don't expect the warm and fuzzy service from Jamaican restaurants. The service here was straight forward, although they didn't have a lot of food options available. Like 40% of the menu was not an option. It would be great if that was made clear. This is not my first time here and not the first time most options were not available. Food- I ordered a classic, curry chicken. Now in my opinion it's really hard to mess this up. But..... the curry chicken lacked the curry roux that everyone loves. It also was spicy in the most unnecessary way, and I love spicy but not with this. The rice and peas was sweet, which was not great, it seemed to be made with coconut milk. The cabbage was not great either and generally everything lacked seasoning. Atmosphere- I drive by daily and rarely see anyone parked there, much less sitting outside on their patio. They have the potential to be great but being more interactive, pairing down the menu, and making the few dishes amazing would truly benefit this business. The two stars are because it's edible and I did this to myself smh. But honestly I hope the owners and chef see this and invest in themselves and make the business better Edit (March 30) So I see the owner's reply accusing me of being from another store. I am quite google-able, and not affiliated, just a regular person who loves carribean food. I do hope they take into account the other reviews saying similar things I did. But with that said save yourself the trouble and don't eat here. There are definitely better places to eat.
