The guacamole and salsa were very good- the queso lacked flavor and was not heated enough to easy to "dip". I ordered the fried chicken flour tortillas with a side of black beans and rice. All of the items- while not overly adventurous choices, were very very bland. I can only think that the kitchen inferred a 3 year old was going to dine on the meal. The food was beautiful and there was a lot of technique in the cooking. It just lacked flavor. I may give it another try but not in a rush to do so...

The salsa was hands-down the best I've had, fresh, flavorful, and perfectly textured, so it stayed on the chip (you know what I mean). Service was so kind and efficient! I ordered the seafood paella and was blown away by how fresh everything tasted. Even the single portion was filling and satisfying with leftovers. The paloma was a bit heavy on the liquor but if that's your thing, it's perfect! What stood out just as much as the food was the atmosphere. Even with families and young kids around, it still felt calm and relaxed. It's clear this is a spot the local community truly loves. I just started an Atlanta food list to share with friends, and this place is definitely going right at the top.

They also have outdoor seating. Jamaica drink was pretty good but went fast. I think no free refills. No pico but they have chunky, flavorful salsa and it wasn't too spicy. We were so hungry I forgot to take pics but I had the shrimp tacos and queso. We also had double rice and beans. Everything was a hit for us. My son was very happy the rice and beans weren't spicy but he didn't like the green garnish. I thought it was cute though lol Otherwise it was good. We spent less that $40 for the meal, drink, kids meal and queso. Not too bad. Quality and great tasting meal. Nice portion size. We will be back.

They are perfectly sauteed and seasoned. Next time I'm just getting a bowl of them. Lately it has been broccolini, kale, mushrooms, squash and zucchini. Empanadas: these are made to order so you can remove cheese from the filling. I don't even like sweet plantain but the combination of sweet plantain with the savory black beans in the crispy shell is perfection. These reheat well also. Guava juice is otherworldly. Soooo good. The food also holds up well for leftovers, if you have any!

I ordered my favorite meal of all time, the oxtail, served with cabbage and rice and peas, plus a traditional rum punch. Absolutely delicious. The oxtail was tender, flavorful, and the portions were generous. My husband Davey ordered the jerk chicken tacos with mango salsa and a rum punch. The tacos were technically supposed to be a starter, but they were literally the size of an entrée. They filled him up so much he didn't even need to order anything else. The service was fantastic and the decor was beautiful. They incorporated the colors of the Jamaican flag into the design in such a classy, elevated way without it feeling overdone or tacky. The whole place had such a warm, stylish vibe. Can't wait to come back in the evening because I know the atmosphere probably gets even better at night. Definitely recommend if you're looking for delicious Jamaican food, great drinks, and a beautiful atmosphere.

This was my first visit to this restaurant, and unfortunately it was a very disappointing…read moreexperience. We visited after a graduation celebration and were looking forward to a memorable meal. The experience got off to a rough start with hosts who were not particularly warm or welcoming. Once seated, things only went downhill. Our waiter seemed disorganized from the beginning. We ordered appetizers first, but they arrived at different times, and to make matters worse, the graduate in our party received her main entrée at the same time the rest of us were receiving appetizers. I politely explained that it didn't make sense for one guest to be eating her entrée while everyone else was still eating appetizers and waiting for their meals. His response was confusing and didn't really address the issue, so we let it go. Unfortunately, the graduate's steak was served cold. Rather than preparing a fresh one, the restaurant simply took it back and returned it about two minutes later. It appeared to be the exact same steak based on how we had left it when it was sent back, and while I'm not sure whether restaurants typically reheat food or prepare a new dish altogether, this one was reheated. To make matters worse, the graduate ended up with a stomachache after eating it. As we continued waiting, our entrées never arrived. The waiter was polite but extremely inattentive. We repeatedly had to flag him down because he rarely checked on our table. After a VERY long wait, I asked about the rest of our meals. At that point, he admitted that he had forgotten to place our entree orders altogether. He then had to take all of our orders again and submit them to the kitchen. By the time our food finally arrived, we were no longer hungry and were extremely frustrated, despite remaining patient and courteous throughout the entire experience. The entrées were decent, but nothing exceptional, especially considering the extremely excessive wait and service issues. The waiter did bring a small dessert for the graduate, which was a nice touch, but it felt more like a complimentary gesture because he had forgotten our entrées than a genuine celebration of the occasion, especially given how disastrous the overall experience had been. What should have been a joyful graduation celebration turned into an exhausting and disappointing dining experience. While the waiter was polite, the service was slow, disorganized, and lacking attention to detail. Overall, this was a poor first experience and not one I would be eager to repeat.

She was accommodating to my friend's request for them to close the door. She was also helped when we both expressed our Churrasco steaks were well done when we both ordered medium. She brought them back to the kitchen and had them remade. I forgot to take photos for those but I was chewing for way too long on the first bite and barely had any pink meat. A few other things we ordered were the crab cake and Brussel sprouts, which were both really good. I got the birria empanada, which unfortunately was not seasoned at all. It was fried to perfect tho. Overall it was an underwhelming experience and I would likely not return.
