Customer Reviews
This is authentic Jamaican. You do NOT get large portions. It is costly. $25 a person without what I ordered to take home. YES-it was that good. We ate in and then I bought more for home >_< Disappointed that what I took home had barely any Jerk sauce on it. We live too far away to go back and ask for more. The place is a little small hole in the wall type place. Locally owned. I always would rather spend a bit more to get good quality and support local. You won't regret it if you do! Even my picky kids loved it!
Weve ordered out a few times here. Im always reluctant to order oxtail out anywhere due to the fat, but we crossed our fingers and ordered oxtail. There was more fat then meat on the FIVE tails they gave us, a large order plus 2 beef patties, $38. Unfortunately, I will never do that again, Im mean the peas & rice were fine but almost $40 for a bowl of rice!? Oh & the oxtail beef patty was also FULL of fat. Reg beef patty wasnt it either. Order at your own risk. There are other Caribbean/Jamaican spots in the poconos.
This place is the most authentic Jamaican spot I've tried so far living in pennsylvania. The place is off the road it's small and cute but very cozy. They have indoor seating and a beautiful large grill outside. The staff is friendly and the place smells good. The food is covered and kept clean. I got the curried goat and my friend got the jerk chicken. They asked if we wanted more sauce on our rice and made sure our food was served to us. Food was hot and tasted amazing.
My husband and I stopped in here today and had some of the best brown stew and curry chicken/goat. Will definitely stop back in before we head home. We couldn’t get away to the carribean for our anniversary this year but this sure satisfied our desire for some carribean food!
I am a Filipino and I have enjoyed the curry goat and the oxtail that we’ve ordered. We ordered the small size but the servings were huge! Both dishes were packed with so much flavor and both were tender and just melts in your mouth. It was hearty and the combination of meat, rice and veggies were just right to prepare us for our hiking trip. I’d go there again if we just live nearby.
