My boyfriend and I stopped by this place driving from Dallas to Temple. It was only a few minutes off the highway and had good reviews. This restaurant is off a small road and is a random, brightly colored, building surrounded by farmland. Do not let this deter you!! The food here is SO GOOD. We got the oxtail, curry chicken, rice, and plantains. I will 100% go out of my way to eat here again. The owner clearly cares A LOT about his cooking and customer satisfaction. Some previous reviews mentioned small portion sizes but he must have taken this to heart because the portions were quite large and we couldn't even finish. It was a hot day and he brought 2 homemade lemonades out to our car, free of charge (which was also delicious). Support this small business and give this place a try!!! Really, really good.
Do not drive by without stopping in! You will not be disappointed! Better than food I had in Jamaica itself! The chicken was superb but the oxtails....my oh my oh my! Off the charts spectacular. I eagerly ate every side and would be hard pressed to pick one I liked over another. I wish I had taken a pic of the food, but I was too excited to eat after smelling it all the way home. FRESH MADE & DELICIOUS! The owner/Chef is so pleasant and friendly and it may not be fancy, but watch the rush rush of people go by as you wait for your meal. It might take a minute (we are on island time here..lol) but it is so worth every minute. I will return and look forward to trying more...including the desserts! P.s. I got 1 medium original jerk chicken and 1 original oxtail and it fed 3 adults with leftovers! Best bang for your buck around!
My husband and I had the jerk chicken, peas and rice, and sweet plantains. We also got beef patties. It was all SO good! I'm from NY and missed having Jamaican food. I'm so glad to have found this spot. Everything was seasoned well and had just the right amount of heat and great portions. The plantains were sweet and juicy. The patties were flaky and tasted amazing. The restaurant was neat and clean. My David was friendly and pleasant. Definitely will be back again! I totally recommend!
