    I was ecstatic to see a Jamaican restaurant in London, KY. I was actually on my way to another…read morerestaurant when I spotted this place, made an audible and changed directions. When I arrived, I was greeted by the cook. After looking over the menu I decided on the escovitch fish. I was informed that due to the location and feedback from the locals, that the fish be catfish, and the oxtails are sold de-boned. What in the world?!?! I was shocked and disappointed but then realized, you have to cater to your guests in order to stay in business. I proceeded to order the fish with cabbage and plantains. They were out of mac and cheese and veggie patties. I think they order the patties from Golden Krust; because he stated that lately they've been getting spinach patties vs veggie patties when they've been ordering them. I was completely ready to be disappointed by my food. This didn't look like escovitch fish that I've seen before. Where was the sauce? But I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. The fish was cooked perfectly and the veggies were seasoned spot on. Overall, I was very pleased. The price, portion and taste were all splendid. I will definitely return while in the area.

    We've tried this place twice, we were sad to see that it had shut down. The jerk chicken was our…read morefavorite with the rice and sauce! This was the first time we had ever had Jamaican food and we've definitely been missing it!

    Had lunch here yesterday. Our 2nd time and didn't disappoint! The food is sooooo good. We had beef…read morepatties with garlic naan as appetizers. They were FABULOUS! The beef patties are made fresh to order AND so flavorful and the chutney served alongside was amazing. For entrees we ordered jerk chicken, Chicken tikka masala and goat curry. Each was exceptional - great portion sizes- truly a meal! For sides - we had the exceptional mac and cheese, cabbage, collar greens and bourbon yams. I can't say enough about how good the food is. We love it here! And the owner is there - checking on us and making sure everything was to our liking! Excellent food, excellent service - we will definitely be back again!

    Okay, I'm finally writing my review for this place. I came here when I was visiting my daughter…read more The energy in here is so good. You can tell they actually care about the food they're putting out. It's a little small inside and parking is in the back if I remember correctly. It's low-key genius that they have Caribbean and Indian food together. I got the jerk chicken bowl. My daughter tried the the veggie biryani with garlic naan. We also grabbed a side of yams, I would actually die for them. Also, the plantains were perfectly sweet and caramelized. It's giving authentic, it's giving flavor, it's giving "I'm coming back next week." (I wish), we need this in California. If you're on Bardstown Rd and haven't been yet, you're actually missing out. 100% recommend grabbing a plate. NO pictures of the food but my tummy will always remember.
