TO SAY I'M DISAPPOINTED IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!! I've been craving oxtails for a few days now. So, I placed an order for a large oxtail platter with dumplings and festival. The oxtails and the rice and peas were BURNT. I didn't come str8 home. I stopped at the little store next door. Had a conversation with the store clerk. I grabbed a few items. On my way home I stopped to grab other goodies for the weekend. I finally get home. Get a glass of ice, utensils, napkins, I'm ready. I pour my Ginger Beer, take a sip. I go in for my 1st bite, I felt a gut punch; BURNT FOOD! I call and their closed for the evening. $45 down the freakin drain.... UPDATE: After being told by Juan to bring the plate in and they would exchange it. While me and my cousin were looking at the menu to order addt'l f
I have been eating at this restaurant, on and off, for over a year. When I initially discovered it, the food was superb! About 6 months ago, I stopped eating there often because the cooks have changed and the food isn't as delightful. Today (12-19-2025) I went there to eat, after months of not going there. I ordered curry chicken, rice & peas, plantains and cabbage. I was eating it and the flavors have improved since the original chef left. However, a piece of chicken wasn't fully cooked. I was shocked and disturbed, to see that mess on my plate. I took it back to the restaurant and asked for a manager. A older Black man came, saw the half-cooked chicken, never apologized or offered a cake or something and left to bring me more chicken. When I tell you I will NEVER recommend Hungry
Note: The day I stopped in, they were severely shorthanded. They had a sign up to let people know. That may have had something to do with the results of my order. This spot was recommended by a friend so I really wanted to love it. I'm not in the area often, but work had me there for a week so I was trying tons of food and I would put this somewhere in the middle. Parking: If you get there during a busy time, you may find it difficult to find parking. People tried to use the parking lot as efficiently as possible, but you may find yourself street side and walking up. My order: Oxtail plate, short rib plate, jerk chicken with fries and a beef and cheese patty for the drive home. With the few Jamaican restaurants I've tried some dishes, I was expecting the flavor to be out of this world.
Cozy little take out joint. A large oxtail dinner was 25.99 . Oxtail was good. Stew chicken was pretty good. They have a nice selection of dishes & you get a good portion of food. Reggae music playing and a few seats outdoor to wait for your food or to eat . I’d recommend & return when I’m In the area
Really good food and decent portions Recommend the jerk chicken, cabbage, Mac n cheese, plantains, and rice. Wish it were a little spicier The wait is LONG, if you’re doing pick up, make sure to put the pick up time 45 minutes before you arrive.
