A Jamaican friend of ours recommended this place and boy am I glad she did. The food was unbelievably outstanding. Better than anything we have ever eaten in Jamaica itself. There was a very long wait time as they had one person in the kitchen, the owner, but when the food came out tasting as amazing as it did and as hot and fresh as it was, the long wait melted away.
We happened upon this restaurant somewhat accidentally and are glad we found this hidden treasure in Colorado Springs! Very impressive food quality and portion size, extreme cleanliness, and an authentic Jamaican cultural experience. I ordered the oxtail, on Meika’s recommendation, and my husband had the jerk chicken platter. Everything was fresh and delicious, and we ended our meal with the homemade coconut drops. With the music playing and all the unique flavors, we felt like we were on a staycation! Note: the signage doesn’t have a lot of contrast so it’s easy to drive by this spot - watch for the bright awnings!
My very first Jamaican meal in Colorado! I was skeptical (being from a more diverse and heavy caribbean culture city) but happy to report the food was amazing and the customer was top tier! I do wish the oxtail pieces were smaller but that may just be a personal preference, had no effect on the taste. I also love that there were Jamaican snacks and canned food items for purchase. 10/10 will be back.
Been seeing all these videos online of people eating ox tails so I had to source my own! Tried this place’s spicy ox tails and they were phenomenal! The food is top notch, the service was great as is the atmosphere. Food came out quick too. I will definitely be back!
They made me ackee (without saltfish) and served a side of rice and beans. It was delicious. Disappointing was the bill when they charged full price for a fish entree when only two sides were served.
