Girls lunch! Great day to sit out and enjoy a meal. We sat outside under the awning . I had food from his pop-up but never ate in. We all started with a cocktail. It was lunchtime so options were beer and wine most of us opted for wine with one person trying the Jamaican beer Red Stripe. Food is ordered and paid for at the counter and they bring it out to your table. I had the jerk chicken, it comes with rice & beans, plantains and cabbage. Everyone else had the Rasta pasta with shrimp. One person ordered the cocoa bread and we all tried it. Everything was very good, there were no complaints. It's all on street parking so be prepared for a little walk.

Loooooooooove the comfy bright interior! Stopped by for lunch a few days ago for the first time with my hubby and we love it. The food was delicious (order at the counter) and hot! My drink was warm even tho it came from the fridge but I'll let it slide because the jerk chicken salad + soup and beef patty made me happy. Also stole a bite of hubby's sandwich and it was sooo good! Friendly staff - we seated ourselves and they brought the food to the table, and since we came when they open we avoided the long lunch line :) Can't wait to come back and tey the rest of the menu!

I recently attended a private corporate dinner at Bratts Hill, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The food was exceptional--beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and memorable from start to finish. The service was equally impressive. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made everyone feel welcome throughout the evening. One of the highlights was that Chef Darian Bryan took the time to come out and meet many of the guests. It was clear how much he cares about both the food and the overall dining experience. If you're looking for an outstanding meal and warm hospitality, I highly recommend Bratts Hill. Congratulations to Chef Darian Bryan on creating such a fantastic restaurant. I can't wait to return!

First and foremost, I'd like to say the service was amazing! The restaurant was very clean and the food was very flavorful! The server and hostess were very helpful and hands on with all of our inquiries and request! My wife ordered all the food and all I know is the chicken was soft and tender and not chewy at all. The cabbage had a perfect sweetness! I never had a plantain before and it tasted amazing! It reminded me of A banana with air as if it had texture but it wasn't chewy as if it sticks. The oxtail was amazing as well! Having recipes down to perfection is how I prefer my restaurant quality! It tastes different than a free handed home cooked meal with love! I can tell the recipes were made with love as well. Also the restaraunt is beautiful inside and is definitely a hidden gem!

I ordered the 1 Half Brown Stew Chicken on a to go order. The chicken was tender and the dish was very flavorful. Very impressed. It was my first time eating there and will try dining in next time.

I was a little nervous at first walking in because we had reservations for 8:30 for 2 people. When we walked in at 8:30 there was a large party that had reservations at 8 waiting to be seated still. I could tell the staff was super overwhelmed and no one acknowledged us at first to the point I almost grabbed someone that was walking by to ask for a hostess. The large party was seated after about 10 minutes and things calmed down and then we were seated right away. It was smooth sailing after that. Our waiter was great and attentive. We started with the fries and crispy rice squares. Both were excellent. The crispy rice squares had the perfect crisp and the shrimp on top was delicious. The fries were perfectly cooked and had a sauce that complimented them well. My husband even asked for extra sauce for his dinner. For our main course we got the Rasta pasta and the salmon. The Rasta pasta wasn't on the dinner menu but they let me order it anyway which was very kind. The Rasta pasta was creamy and the jerk chicken seasoned well. The salmon was excellent as well. The ambience was cozy and well decorated. They also give you a warm scented towel after you eat and I love a nice touch like that. I will absolutely come here again and hope to try the oxtail ragu. I almost gave 4 stars due to the beginning of the experience but had to give 5 because the food was so good.

I'll keep it short and simple: Second time around - not so great. The noodles in my oxtail ragu were so overcooked and mushy that it was hard to enjoy. The sea bass and lobster special (priced at a whopping $65) was a tiny portion that was almost laughable. Those 2 things alone made me take off a star each. I understand chef Darian made it big since we last visited now that he's on some cooking competition show. But I'm not sure that Bratt's Hill is worth returning to.

Went here after my co-worker told me about it. It had been awhile since we had any Jamaican food so we were super excited. I understand they have a fancier menu for dinner but we just went for the casual lunch menu. You order at the counter and pay for it and then they serve you at your table. Everything was delicious and well-seasoned. Price is a little higher than we were used to but portion sizes were pretty big as well. We both had enough leftovers for a second meal so can't complain. Looking forward to going back and trying out their dinner menu!

You don't understand...I flew from California and this was the best meal I ever had in Buffalo. The oxtail ragu is by far the best oxtail I've ever had. This pasta is 80% oxtail and 20% pasta. They are so generous!! Their entrees could feed two people by itself. The quality is unmatched. The kitchen is clean and open. I can't even order oxtail anywhere else because this place just set the bar so high. Also the service was amazing. Perfect date night or girls night out spot.

Food was delicious for sure. I haven't had such perfect fine dining service in the area in over 10-15 years. Bravo tutti!

Chef Darian knows what he's doing! This spot has been on my list for a long time since they opened and I finally got over here for lunch. It's a perfect fit in the Larkinville area and offers a good change up from the usual lunch menus around town. The lunch vibes here are emmaculate on a nice summer day. The interior gives it an upscale vibe with friendly service for your whole meal. I ordered the Jerk Chicken Caesar salad and it might be my new favorite salad. (Which sounds a little funny to write) Yes, it may be just a salad but you can definitely do salad right and wrong. Chef Darian does it right! The chicken is spiced perfectly, the lettuce tastes fresh and crispy, the croutons are easy to put a fork in and don't crumble, and it has plenty of cheese. You can't go wrong with this lunch. It also has tomatoes on it but I just may have ignored those. I have to come back for their dinner service and try some of the other dishes but I might have found a new go-to spot for lunch.

I cannot say enough about this restaurant. I went for my birthday and I am so happy I went. The atmosphere is very nice. It's relaxed and classy. I don't know what I was expecting but it was a great experience. When we arrived we were seated right away. I'm one of those people that has to check out the menu before I go so I had my options narrowed down to a few choices. Our waiter Phil was dope. He gave real answers to our questions and it's obvious that he enjoys what he does and he appreciates the food being served. We ultimately decided to start our dinner with the saltfish fritters and the coconut curry mussels. They were absolutely delicious. I am learning to be more open minded when it comes to seafood and I normally would not order mussels but I know my husband loves them so we decided to give them a try. The broth was out of this world. It was so flavorful. My husband was losing his mind. I really enjoyed them myself. The saltfish fritter were a no-brainer. I knew I was going to love them and I did. They come with this aioli sauce on the side to dip them in and I was ready to lick to the plate. When it was time to pick our meal for dinner, Phil was so detailed in the description of spice and serving size. It's obvious he enjoys the food. I went with he fried red snapper and my husband had the oxtail ragu. Now my husband is a chef and he always picks the better meal. It's like he just knows what going to be good. Well this time I picked a bomb meal. Don't get me wrong, his oxtail ragu was amazing. The oxtail was tender and the flavor of the sauce was literally something I have never had but would easily eat again. But baby that fried snapper was everything. The flavor was so damn good that I didn't even care that I got the entire fish (head and all). The rice and peas that came with it was so good. I rolled up my sleeves and got to work. I enjoyed every single bite. It was way too much food and we both ended up taking our meal home. I was really too full for dessert but I couldn't pass up the unique treats. I had the mango scotch bonnet sorbet and my husband had the coconut lime creme brulee. Again, we were both super satisfied. I can't explain the why or the how but something about the cold sorbet being sweet and having the heat of a scotch bonnet just did it for me. I loved it so much. You get three scopes and I was too full to finish it. I would love to have it again on a summer day. My husband loved his creme brulee. He loved that the key lime was still present and the coconut was still strong but not too much that it overpowered the lime. Although he was pouting because he said he should have got the carrot cake to go. Ha! What I really enjoyed is Chef Chris came out and visited every table. He is so kind and welcoming. He took his time talking to us and gave us some great options from the menu to consider when we come back. He expressed that the kindness and friendliness in Buffalo is like that of Jamaica and it's one of the reasons he has stayed and continued to work with Chef Darian. It was a wonderful experience and I can't wait to return with my parents. They're going to love it.

Food was incredible. Wonderful spice and flavor. Everything was obviously very well thought out and mastered. Service was 100% on point and very friendly. The wine we had was also perfect. I will be back, many times I'm sure.
