Only thought halfway through of taking pics

My boyfriend literally just picked up take out. We have been by this place so many times and are FINALLY trying it. It's so good, y'all. Mac and cheese, greens, catfish, shrimp, rice, candied yams and cornbread all are insanely flavorful and delicious. If you're local and haven't tried this place yet- DO IT!

First let me start by saying I'm from New York & just moved to Ohio in April I haven't found any restaurant's to make me feel at home until I came here to eat , customer service is great. Food is great THE JERK CHICKEN & CABBAGE IS THE BEST I'll recommend this place to anybody especially if they want that Caribbean taste this is the place !!! I'll be back for more jerk chicken

This small place was a delight to find after one of our fall hiking spree hikes in Summit County. We decided to be adventurous & give it a go, & we were glad we did! John's Philly Steak was tender & tasty with red peppers & onions. He said it was the best he ever had! He was kind enough to let me have a taste & I have to agree with him, "best ever." I enjoyed some extra crispy lemon pepper wings & seasoned fries. Just yummy. They cooked the wings extra crispy for me without charring them. The peach cobbler was great! Down side to this little gem is that it is so little, only 3 tables. You had to wait for your food & that was A OK because that way you are assured its fresh!

Greens

This Jamaican/Soul food joint was a friendly surprise. There isn't much room to sit down and eat but they do have 2-3 small tables. I had jerk chicken with greens and macaroni and cheese. The chicken was delicious, flavorful and had a nice spicy kick but not too spicy. The Mac and cheese was some of the best I've ever had. Forget fake cheese sauce this stuff is the REAL deal. Delicious. The greens were delicious also. The reason for one star short of five is because the restaurant could use a little bit of cleaning. It wasn't quite up to my standards as far as cleanliness, nothing out of line gross, but could definitely use some elbow grease. I would go back but wouldn't go out of my way.

Jerk chicken meal

This place is amazing and definitely a little hidden gem. I had the jerk chicken and my husband had the wings - we both loved it! Husband said they were the best wings he has had in Akron. Food is flavorful and made with love. Came within an hour through UBER eats and the food was warm and fresh. We will definitely be back!

Fish dinner! I had to stop eating and share the joy!

Great home cooked food! The Mac'n-cheese is soooo good! This competes with family reunion type eating! lol I'm going back!

Very flavorful jerk portobellos over rice. #PlantbasedLife
Andrea S.

Had the pleasure of dining here last night and it was delicious. Although there is not much listed one the menu for a plantbased diet, I was pleased to know the owner was developing one and he personally made me some jerk portobello over rice to order that was dynamite. I will definitely be back.

Chicken Philly
Staci R.

This place is AMAZING!!! We got takeout here tonight and it did not disappoint! Do you like jerk chicken?!?! I do and this was the best I have ever had!!! The wings were meaty, full of flavor and cooked to perfection! My husband got the chicken philly and after the first bite said he was in love! For sides we got Mac n cheese, candied yams and peach cobbler!!! The Mac n cheese was so good and light! The yams reminded me of my grandmas cooking.....YUM! The peach cobbler was divine and tasted like it was fresh out the oven!! All the food here is cooked to order so we waited about 15 minutes but it was well worth the wait! It's a little spot mainly meant for takeout, with 2 tables available to sit at. I noticed they deliver via Grub Hub which is awesome and I will definitely try that in the future! If you're looking for down home soul food cooking in Akron then this is the place!!! It may not look like much, but the food packs a punch!!!!!

Overpriced. Not a lot of food at all. Not worth the money. Would never go here again.

Food was great! Out here in Ohio on business, the name of the restaurant caught my eye. I gave it a try and I was not disappointed.

The inside is very pleasant, I'm sure my poor phone photos will not do it justice. Our server was…read morevery kind and helpful, if a bit slow at checking up on us, but it wasn't an issue. The food. The food is very good. We tried three different wing flavors. The house made buffalo, the Thai chili, and the citrus jerk wings. They fell off the bone and were delicious. I would have to say the best wings I've had, these really did stand out, and would say they are worth trying. They are a bit pricier than other places wings, but the flavor is there. What we really came here for was the burger, we've been trying every place that the Akron Beacon Journal did a tournament for to determine our own favorite, without nostalgia influencing our decisions. The burger was fantastic. The meat is seasoned well and the bread was soft and fluffy. The sauce tasted homemade and unique, but didn't take away from the burger. The pickles on it as well are homemade or made from a company nearby, but they're also very good and different than any you get at the store. I will definitely be back. This was very good on a day where we stopped at 3 places and this happened to be the last.

The food was edible? So that's something. The pizza was wildly cooked; part looked like raw dough…read moreand part was baked. The boneless wings looked raw, but were surprisingly tasty. The Buffalo sauce was what it should be. The bar is set pretty high in this area for local pizza. Overall, not impressed with this spot. 15% chance I would order again.

So i ordered pizza and wings for fathers day.....so mixed about this experience, I went to pick up…read morethe order there was only one person working the phone ringing off the hook... so on with my experience..., 1)ordered a large sink pizza added meatballs and banana peppers waited for the woman to bring my order....she answered the phone and told someone they couldn't deliver because she didn't have a delivery person....he was setting on the bench waiting with his red insulated delivery bag. 2)she brought my order LOOKED at the receipt and i was out the door when i got to the car i looked at the pizza and saw no veggies on it so I walked back in and asked...they made the wrong pizza but she looked at the receipt and knew it was wrong ....sink was on the receipt anyway i waited another 20 minutes till it got done....they did nothing about it not even an apology...but after all she lied about not having a delivery person...no big deal not out for freebies any way.... 3)so the pizza over all was good the toppings were adequate maybe a little more sauce would have been nice... but the wings not so much i don't know what brand of sauce they use but it was good although a bit spicy...for me was it ok my wife not so much....they were your typical rubbery type wing you get from Dominoes or Pizza Hut 4)pizza I'd give an 8...wing sauce a 9....wings a 2...i will order pizza from here again at some point...but forget about the wings...
