    ackee and saltfish on the left (meal on right is from other restaurant)
    Hayley C.

    I went to this place after my road test. I ordered the ackee and saltfish with coconut rice. It came with some plantains as well. SOO GOOD!!! Ackee and saltfish is one of my favorite things to eat and this place makes it amazingly. Flavor was perfect and it was so filling that I was able to space it out for 2 meals over 2 days. Just wish it was closer so I could go back more often!!

    Wow food looks good

    Very nice place come check this place out This is my first time so far it is good on the oxtail

    Chicken patty and beef patty

    Drove by this local fast food place and we had to turn around and try it out! We got two beef patties and two chicken patties along with pineapple guava juice and mango juice. The beef patties have the perfect amount of spicy kick to them. The chicken has a bit of spice too, but not has spicy as the beef. I believe they were $2 each! 10/1 The juice isn't made in house, but that's ok. Still pretty good, but super sweet! 8/10 I'll have to stop by here before we head back to the DMV. I'll post an update when that happens.

    A MUST TRY! Authentic! Excellent jerk chicken. Great smoke flavor and spice. Everything is made in house. The white rice with stewed beef was delicious as well. Nice to find a new spot to frequent. Good portions fair prices.

    Beef patty

    Not sure what I'm missing from everyone else. Fried chicken was old and stale, brown stew chicken was salty and had no flavor. Rice was bland. Plantains were good though. The beef patty I bit into didn't break, the meat was dried and old. Would've gave this place 2 stars but since I drove 40 minutes for this crap I'm trying to save the next person the drive. The restaurant looks nice though and their menu looks abundant. I was so excited. Now I'm disappointed and still hungry.

    I definitely wish I skipped this place. The food was so greasy and absolutely no flavor. I think…read morethey forgot to add a lick of seasoning. The owner was sooooo sweet and the portions are huge which sucks because I didn't want to eat anymore. The taste was lacking so much. I will never return. The prices are way too high for the food to be so bland. I am from the Caribbean and took someone here to tell them they would love Haitian food. They had oxtail and said the portion size was awesome but no flavor whatsoever. The rice was also very dry. The pickliz did not taste fresh at all, in fact it tasted almost spoiled. Maybe I caught em on a bad day but spent $50 on two meals that we did not finish bc the flavor was lacking so bad. The portions are ok, mostly just a pan of rice but give them a try for yourself! You may enjoy it.

    This is the best food in Springfield. Previously, the best restaurant in Springfield was L'amour…read morerestaurant. The mango lassi still hits the spot. As far as meal goes this Haitian restaurant does indeed know how to cook. They're kind people who enjoy a friendly conversation with their customers. I'm an introvert myself, so I mostly listened, then went home to eat the meal. I'm writing this review after a eating about 1/3 of the plate. I'm on budget, but think that I can squeeze two more meals from the large potion that I was served. Great blend of spices in the rice and beans and the sauce. Please show them some love if you can. Think with your stomach.

All around asparagus spears that were fresh and cooked to perfection. On the side was a product that I have never had the pleasure to try in the past.

Had to ask 3x for to go boxes. We had a party of 4. Ask for the check and was given one for the whole table. Was told it could not be split up. When we told her we were not paying together and she needed to split the checks she left and came back with an attitude. There is no sign and no one communicates that they don't split checks or automatically add 18% gratuity onto your check. The service or food is not that good to have an automatic 18% gratuity added to the bill. There was one waitress/bartender so it took her awhile to get back to you. There is not many food choices on the menu.i really wanted to like this place.

Nice little location, plenty of tables to eat at in the dining section if you're inclined to eat there. Interesting murals on the walls and some pictures of prominent Jamaican people in history. They don't have a menu on the wall per se, but a paper menu on top of the counter you can look at that looks like it changes daily as well as a menu online. A nice young man rang up my order, which was quickly filled by a pleasant lady that I chatted with while she fulfilled my order. I gotta tell you my car was smelling good on the way home! Everything was wonderful, the oxtails were very flavorful, somewhat labor intensive to eat but hey.....that's oxtails! The jerk chicken had excellent flavor and with a decent spice level kick. The rice and peas were awesome as well as the steamed cabbage. We also picked up a jerk chicken sandwich on coco bread with fries (which was only $8.95!!!) that was very tasty and a couple of mild beef patties for good measure. We enjoyed every single item we brought home from 1Love. Definitely will be making a trip back again soon. Stop by and check them out, you won't be sorry you did!
