    Great place, great food. Incredible value... the plantains are to die for. Can't wait to return and the name is hilarious

    Pretty good had the super jerk tacos! Ordered with Uber eats. Came fast. The taco was huge and filing. more like a jerk burrito

    Great customer service, friendly staff but COMPLETELY TASTELESS FOOD!  I ordered Jerk shrimp, cabbage, beans & rice, and mac and cheese. None of my food was seasoned, I didn't taste a hint if salt or spice.  The cooks need to be retrained, maybe go to the Caribbean and shadow a couple of cooks.  Their food is absolutely awful.

    I tried this fir the 1st time and when I tell you it was fresh and very large quantities of food. The greens, cabbage, red beans and rice and Mac and cheese were all excellent. The chicken was delicious, moist and just the right amount of sauce. I also got dessert and the peach cobbler was almost as good as my moms. That's saying a lot! I will definitely go back soon.

    Not a fan of this place, unfortunately.  Was really craving jerk chicken, so I wandered in and was excited to see they had it.  The service was friendly and fast.  The restaurant was clean and well taken care of.  Sadly, the full order of jerk chicken (dark meat) was really sub-par.  Jerk chicken is traditionally seasoned well and has a smoky flavor with a sauce that contains some sort of pepper (traditionally scotch bonnet peppers).  This was not the case here.  The sauce tasted like it was out of a jar--a jar that didn't contain a very good sauce.  The chicken was sadly dry and really underwhelming.  I was going to Milwaukee that day and had stomach cramps the entire drive.  Not going back.
