When I tell you these are the best oxtails I’ve ever had in my life! I kid you not. Perfect flavor for the oxtails, rice and gravy. The meat on the oxtails was falling off the bone and was so buttery soft, they melt in your mouth. I will forever compare these oxtails to anywhere else I get them. They do not disappoint!
The red pea soup with beef was very good, but I got sick from the curry goat, and I don't blame the restaurant because I did Door Dash, and the person who delivered my is not person and Door Dash and they pulled in parking lot for 5 minutes before they gave me my food. Had I known it was my order, I wouldn't have touched it. I did report this to Door Dash because that's a dangerous game. A female name, yet a dude, brings my food and doesn't speak to me when I question who he is.
The jerk chicken was very dry, but oxtails were pretty good. Not sure if it’s because we came at the end of the day but I’d recommend adding more sauce to moisten the rice. The plantains weren’t ripe also. For $40 for two people we were expecting better from an authentic Jamaican spot.
I was visiting Tampa for the first time and experienced this carribean gem. The oxtails were phenomenal. The customer service was great. There are seats to dine in as well. I would revisit when I return to Tampa.
The first time I ordered here through door dash everything was great. But yesterday I went in person, the rice was so mushy it didn’t go well with the soft texture of the cow foot it tasted like one bowl of slop. After a few bites I threw the entire plate in the garbage. I can deal with the typical nasty attitude if the food is always GOOD but the food was disappointing.
It was my first time trying jerk chicken and even though it was a bit dry, the sauce. Omg!!! The sauce made it soooo much better. The rice was a little under seasoned but overall the plate was very enjoyable. We also got beef patties and a chicken curry patty and they both were absolutely delicious. The service is great and the atmosphere is really good too. Definitely have to come back for some other stuff to keep on trying.
Great hole in the wall spot for authentic Jamaican food. We were excited that they have so many vegan options! They have a few tables inside and out but it's more of a pick up spot.
I always assumed that all jerk must be chicken (and sometimes goat or beef). After being a vegetarian for more than 30 years I was finally able to add "jerk" seasoning to my range of flavors. Oh happy day!
Smiling staff, Reggae music, and flavorful food in a relaxed atmosphere make for a very enjoyable lunch.
