Balla, the owner, was just as engaging--he came over to our table, interacted with the group, and even snapped a few pictures with us. That personal touch really stood out. The food was superb--perfectly seasoned, not overwhelming, and absolutely satisfying. The brown stew chicken was generous, cooked just right, and the meat fell right off the bone (even the bones were melting!). Someone else ordered the curry chicken and could not stop raving about it. Two others had the oxtails, and wow--the meat was overflowing out of the container, incredibly tender, and seasoned like it came straight from a Jamaican spot in Jamaica. Authentic is the only word that fits. The ambiance was great--nothing fancy, but full of Caribbean flavor with the music and layout setting the tone. There's also a bar area where the music spills into the street and the drinks flow freely, adding even more life to the experience. Several of the ladies in our group said they had no idea this place existed--even though they live nearby--but they'll definitely be back. This is a true slice of down-home Jamaican culture and cuisine, and Balla has created something special here. Highly recommend! scene?

The meal was flavorful and hot. I'm from Virginia, so I was in town visiting and it was good to find a good Caribbean food spot while visiting that tasted good. I'd recommend and if ever in the area again I'd like to see what their jerk chicken tastes like too.

The curry goat and chicken brought enough heat and was very tasty. The dinner is accompanied with white rice, vegetables and cabbage. While waiting for my dinner, I had a ice cold beer. The owner took my order, made my food and gave me the jaimacan cuisine to go. I was in and out in 20 minutes. The interior of the restaurant is nothing to brag about. It could use a make over but the food is what keeps people coming back for the spice of life. Mad o seafood, here's to another satisfied customer. Come get a taste of the island right off San Jose blvd and Old St Augustine rd. You will come back again and again!

Looking at the reviews I was skeptical about trying this place, but my fiancé saw a video posted by…read moresomeone saying how good it is which made us come to a conclusion of trying it all out and see if this influencer really know what she's talking about. Their menu offered a bit more than Yah suh nice Jamaican which was why my fiancé chose this Eva's rather than Yah suh. The service need abit of improvement, there was no "Hi welcome in" like most small/big restaurant does to make their guest feel welcome. There's no enthusiasm in it as well and when my fiancé tried to order the jerk shrimp mild spicy which they said it has to be spicy but if you see in one of the picture with the list of item you can see 10pc shrimp jerk mild or spicy sooooo??? It had to be spicy???? Yeah alright then. Then why have Mac and cheese as a side if you can't order it as a side for your meal but can be purchased separately ???? The Cashier said it's " premium " there's no such as a premium Mac and cheese unless that Mac and cheese the come loaded with meat mtchhhh..... The ordering for take out in person need a better system cause why would you call out the order, instead of the name of the customer, what if someone else got the same order to avoid that issue they should start taking the name of the customer. Anyways here's what we try: Chicken patty - 5/10 - meat had no juice in it, was dry and barely any meat in it. Mac and cheese - 7/10 - noodles were overcooked, there wasn't really any flavor either. 2 meal combo Jerk chicken and oxtail - 7/10 the jerk chicken ( 3pc) was okay.... Didn't really taste any flavor on it imo, the rice and peas were alright not as good as taste of Jamaica. The oxtail was decent but only 4pc of it not really worth the $32 Jerk shrimp - 10/10 the flavor was good, the yellow rice was cook well and season properly. Overall the experience was meh.... Wouldn't really recommend this place.
