Food was amazing. Whenever I host a party I always use them. Service was excellent.
The service is warm & friendly. It's a traditional West Indian mom & pop restaurant, nothing super fancy but you can smell all the wonderful spices when you come through the door. The portions are large and seasoned well, but my food was incredibly salty. It tasted like hypertension with a side of stroke. I had steamed fish and my partner had griot. He was pleased with his meal but agreed that mine was too salty and he's heavy handed with the salt shaker in my opinion. I can't recommend this restaurant based on my experience, but if they were to cut back on the salt significantly I'd give them a second chance. On the plus side, the rice was delicious. It was firm, single grains and not clumpy and mushy. I didn't even bite into any cloves! Maybe they used clove powder. The plantain was fried perfectly. The restaurant was clean. You can decide for yourself.
A lot of food. If you don' t like spicy food don't get any meat or fish. You can get legume.That's why I gave 4 stars. If you love spicy food the best 🤤. They serve breakfast and the "mais" is delicious.
