★★★★★ 5.0 Barbara Resendiz · Mar 2026

I had a great & delicious meal ! I live in this neighborhood and I don’t know how I missed coming to this place. My husband and I walked here for dinner on Sunday. The coconut shrimp , oxtail , plantains were off the charts delicious! It is BYOB (w/a cork fee). We brought our own bottle of red wine. We very much enjoyed our meal. The beef patty and goat curry was good. We also had the ice cream for dessert. I had the grape nut and my husband had the rum raisin. The service was very attentive and polite. Chef Cole came out to say hi . He was so nice! We will definitely be back on Friday :)

Heads up: When I arrived at 8:15, they were already putting chairs up. Google says they close at 10 PM, but I might’ve been cutting it close and showed up right at closing time. Food review: The oxtails were okay — very tender with a good amount of meat at the bottom of the plate, but flavor-wise nothing that really stood out. The wings were decent on their own, but once I added the spicy sauce, that’s when everything changed 😋. The sauce had a smooth heat that completely elevated the wings — easily the best part of the meal. Now let’s talk about the sides, because they absolutely stole the show. The cabbage and yams are a 10/10. I honestly don’t know what they did to that cabbage, but WOW. It had this crazy flavor combo — spicy, mild, a slight kick, and a perfect crunch. I’ve never had ca

One of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. We had the jerk chicken alfredo pasta, the oxtail, mac n cheese, cabbage and plantains and everything was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The chicken was so tender and the sauce was perfection. We had a little sample of the curry goat though and THAT was delicious, we can’t wait to come back and order a full plate. The staff were super nice and attentive and brought us hot sauces to try too. Great selection of drinks and sodas. Overall a really solid addition to the neighborhood with good food and good people

★★★★★ 5.0 Sylvia Lindsey · Feb 2026

This place is definitely a go to destination. The food is delicious, the restaurant is large, open/airy, clean, good music and overall atmosphere. I got the jerk chicken with rice and peas, cabbage, and plantains. Every single thing I ate was amazing. The chicken was tender and perfectly seasoned. Also, huge bonus is its BYOB AND has a full bar!! Like what??? I will most certainly be back here.

I recently move back home to Chicago from Madison Wisconsin and searching for real authentic Jamaican food, and finally it! The establishment is extremely clean, stylist, and bringing a grown and sexy vibe. The staff was courteous and respectful from the time I entered until I left. I placed an order for take out (Jerk Chicken, Planters, Mac n Cheese) with came out nice and hot. I was given extra sauce and eating utensils (Huge Plus). The food was so juicy and flavorful with every bite. I love this place! I love that the food can stay so juicy and flavorful, if warmed up for leftovers. Thank you for your service!
