Saw them on Instagram decided to give them a try. The 1st time oxtails were salty. 2nd try, soooo disappointed. Almost $30, thrown away. The food looked old, maybe a day or 2, it wasn't even luke warm. The cabbage was so soft it was almost mushy. The rice was absolutely bland. The main thing, the oxtails had no flavor and the gravy, was non existent. I was so upset. Never again. I wish I could give ZERO stars
I got the jerk chicken and it was smoky, sweet and spicy. Bone came straight out. Delicious. Food was ready quickly. I thought the price was a few dollars too high at first, but then I got the plate and it was HEAVY. I tried to finish it all but couldn’t! I’ll be back when I’m over that way.
Unfortunately today was my first and last time there. There was nothing Jamaican or any other type of Caribbean about these oxtails. It was more cabbage than rice! Gravy???? That’s a joke! I did request gravy on my rice but it was plain to see the lil clear broth on the NO flavored rice and peas! I can’t pinpoint the seasoning that was in the cabbage but they really don’t need to use it!!! The oxtails was tender but nooo thyme, no bay leaves, no scallions, nothing!!!! The rice and peas was bland. The service was good and that’s about it!!!! Unfortunately I was very unhappy after driving 20 mins over there and didn’t enjoy a penny of my $26.
