First time trying out this restaurant, my boyfriend and I really enjoyed it. The jerk chicken was amazing with the white rice, the spices were on point the rice also had a gravy that made it so tasty. We also got fried chicken which was good as well. With coleslaw, would definitely recommend!

I Had the Manish water/Goat soup. It's was very good. The jerk chicken was very good too. I didn't give 5 stars because as I tried to be pleasant to the jerk man no smiles just flat as I walked inside the lady was also extremely stiff faced. No smiles but surprisingly as I came out of the bathroom some white folks had come in after me and the same cashier was smiling from ear to ear with them. Please my people smile with your kind too. How about that? Just saying. I will definitely be going back though for my smile and to sample the other variety of meals. Hopefully. Lol O by the way the lady serving the food was very pleasant. Kudos

My husband is the mist pickiest jamaican man on the planet and when I say he enjoyed his birthday dinner completely with zero arguments that's a win. The restaurant went above and beyond and the food was delicious, the place was clean, and the price was right. Being that my husband and I are both great cooks, and my husband only eats jamaican food, when we are back in town this will be the only restaurant we eat from in brantford. As the food is cooked with the real jamaican seasoning. My husband recommends their pepper. I'm a mild person, but for thise who like spice. Their pepper is a bonus.

I got the $7 goodtogo dinner because I was really hungry but didn’t want to turn the stove or oven on. Not a huge fan of really spicy food so I was apprehensive but hunger eventually made me take the gamble. I received a chicken with rice and beans dish. The chicken was so good, like quite honestly the very best I might have ever had. The flavour wasn’t spicy but a sweet and tangy flavour similar to a teriyaki; was cooked to perfection, chunks that fell apart but were so wonderfully moist. The woman who was cooking did an amazing job. I really wish I could name what the dish was but when you use the app it’s a random meal. I took a picture before I inhaled the entire thing in under 2 minutes. So good and so satisfying. For one person who was pretty hungry it was a good portion size. Rice and beans was cooked well. I live close to this place and can always smell the meat they’re smoking. Can confirm it tastes as good as it smells.
