Jerk chicken has the right spice level and flavor. The chicken would have been even better if it was cooked over wood fire. The cabbage had a sour taste as if it was old, and the rice and peas was bland. The lady at the counter was very nice and professional.

Most consistent Jamaican food in the triad area. Customer service is always great food is piping hot each and every time. The quantity is plenty. I’m not sure when they added the corn and peas to the cabbage but it’s not bad. I get the small jerk chicken and it’s more than enough each and every time. More

Ackee and saltfish was great! However ackee & saltfish is easy to make. However oxtail was horrible. After paying for 3 Large platters for me & my daughters we took a few bites and had to trash it. Money in the trash.

Service was slow but worth the wait. Oxtails were delicious, and the sauce was more than enough for the rice and peas and for the sauteed veggies. The jerk wings had a very good heat to them. Will definitely come again if I crave Jamaican food while in Greensboro.

My friend and I were craving Jamaican food and decided to try this place about fifteen minutes away. The guy who took our order was really nice and answered our questions. We both got jerk wings and I got the sauce on the side. The food was reasonable and great portion. The chicken was bland and hard. It seems like they took it and fried it in a deep fryer, sprinkle salt and pepper on it or tossed it in sauce. The rice and cabbage were bland, no flavor or seasoning at all.
I wouldn’t go out my way to try it again, but if I did I’d try something else and hope it was better than what we got.

** THERE WAS A METAL WIRE OR BRILLO IN THE JERK CHICKEN**
The food was okay , I got L jerk chicken and L curry chicken . The jerk chicken was extremely spicy kind of caught me off guard. Sadly we also found a piece of metal wire or Brillo in the food. From what we ate before coming across that, the curry chicken was decent. The rice and cabbage in both plates were both plain . I also got Mac and cheese which was super salty and tastes like somebody tried to season chicken. Probably will never go back. It can happen anywhere but I would do the same anywhere if it happened. Literally threw 40$ of food away after we found that in our food. Waste of money
The guy at the counter was really nice though. Good service

The food was truly delicious. They did not skimp on the portions. The rice was delicious, meat falling off the BONE. The only thing I would change is the steam cabbage. The texture is too soft for MY liking and it could use some seasoning. But once I mixed it with everything, the flavors helped it a lot!

If you are looking for grilled or jerk chicken that is on charcoal, you won’t find it here. I ordered the two meat combo of oxtails and jerk chicken. The jerk chicken is baked and smothered in jerk sauce, and way too spicy. The oxtails were ok. And my order didn’t come with plantains, which is unusual. It’s next to a smoke shop so be mindful of the hoodlums outside.

I just decided to go out on a limb today and try this place because I’ve been seeing it all over social media from locals and boy boy boy I was not disappointed at all. The two men at the front helped me pick what I wanted, they were super nice and understanding. I loved the customer service and the atmosphere. And I had a 30 minute drive home when I opened my plate it was still steaming!! Over all the food was a 10/10! Most definitely will be my new food spot!
