Food is always delicious best oxtails this side of the Carribean. Maybe better. Cabbage as well.
The food is excellent. I drive 3 hours just to ear the jerk catfish over rice and peas, mac and cheese, and cabbage. Tony is awesome and I will be back.
Fire! Fire! Fire! Not set up for full service eating inside but it is some of the best take out! I got red snapper, jerk chicken, and catfish! I enjoyed every single drop of food! Will be a frequent stop, don't let the hood fool ya for a good meal!
Great food! Love the blended flavors that make 'jerk chicken' ...well--jerk! Polite service, short and sweet. Really a take out location, though there is seating available.
