Oh gosh, the food good, ya see! I'm at this spot whenever I can because I love good food - and when I tell you everything on the menu is fire, I mean it. Flavors are rich, authentic, and always hit the spot. What truly keeps me coming back …

I was extremely disappointed with my experience here. The food did not taste fresh at all, it lacked flavor, and the texture suggested it had been sitting out for quite some time rather than being prepared to order. …

Sadly this place is a total ripoff on take out. For $28 you should get a filling Jerk Chicken meal. Not here. 5 measly pieces of chicken and the leg is the biggest piece. There is much more affordable and bigger-portioned Caribbean food all throughout Brooklyn. Be advised.

WOW! DELICIOUS! + THE BEST HAPPY HOUR (12pm - 7pm) !!! Stopped in on a whim and so glad I did. Amazing Jerk Chicken wings, the Trini Corn Chowder was a spicy yet rich knockout. I cannot wait to come back to try even more authentic island dishes. Latoya - you doin it right! :D

This space was so lovely and the food was delicious. It will be a part of my memories forever. I loved the presentation and the roti skin was so delicious. I would definitely come back here. The sorrel was very tasty. Overall I had a phenomenal experience.

The restaurant has a cozy/homey atmosphere with refreshing drinks and tasty food. Although it is a little pricey, it is in line with other restaurants in the neighborhood, and the portions are large. Also worth mentioning the waitress was very friendly. If you like goat and/or ox tail, this place is well worth a visit.

Food taste good but the portions are a bit unaligned. For the rotis I ordered there was more potato than there was chicken, chic peas and barely any sauce. For the price, not at all impressed.

I'd happily eat here again soon. This restaurant deserves special recognition beyond five stars. The serving size is substantial and the salad tasted clean. Complementarily, the staff maintains friendly attitudes. I'm anticipating trying more dishes next time.

I went here this Tuesday at 4:15 pm and the door was locked. There was a lady inside talking on the phone looking at me like I was bothering her. She eventually unlocked the door. I asked her what time she’d be open and her response was “I …

What a find! I was told this place is mostly food from Trinidad, I’m no expert on food from the Caribbean, but it was bomb. The flavors were incredibly well-balanced and everything was cooked to perfection. I also loved the sorrel take on a …
