    Listen, I want 5 stars so bad for this place, but they fell short on a key aspect. The only reason…read morefor 4 stars was because they were out of goat and patties, and the server seemed unforgiving as well. Everything was GOOD. By GOOD I mean delicious and large and tasty and I just wanted to stuff my face, which I did. I had the chicken curry, my second option because they were out of goat. That's cool though because it was still really good, just a TINY BIT dry, but the sauce made up for it. The bowls were huge, which I love because it was a bit expensive. The sauces were so good, honestly reminds me of my days in Florida and frequenting the Caribbean restaurants there. The drinks (agua frescas), PHEW, were AMAZING. I had the Jamaica, my partner got the Guava, and they killed it with those drinks!!! Sooo flavorful and refreshing, paired very well with the savory food. The bar manager came and talked to us because we were the only people in that joint, she was so friendly and funny. She got us cups and ranch, even though ranch isn't on the menu, for my partner because the bowl was spicy even with the neutralizer. The ambiance was cool and the building was separated into two by curtains, one side was the restaurant and the other was the bar. I could tell they get lit and have a good time there for sure, sound systems and security clued me in on that. We ate in the bar side and the table was very thin, probably made for drinks only, but we made it work. The worker at the register seemed tired of disinterested. He didn't help us out nor present any options, just confirmed or denied what we asked. He wasn't super helpful or welcoming, but he seemed tired so I'll let him have that.

    We went to Pimento before a show at the Ordway. It definitely has "bar" vibes with the music and…read morelights which wasn't necessarily the ambiance we were looking for BUT the staff were friendly, the food was great, and the quickness was just right. We ordered at the counter so we were ready to catch our show at a moment's notice which was perfect. Not to mention the perfectly filling dinner we had. FOOD: we both had the jerk chicken street option with rice, plantains, and slaw. Such a filling and great option. We also got drinks which were adequately strong and well priced. SERVICE: friendly and perfect AMBIANCE: bar vibes but comfortable and definitely perfectly good for us at least (young 20-something's) Parking; tricky but it's expected in St Paul

    On my first day in Minneapolis, I decided to walk over to Harry Singh's. I was a little concerned…read moreby the boarded up glass door but decided to forge ahead and I'm glad I did. Harry is a friendly elderly man from Trinidad and Tobago. He is apparently very well known in Minnesota, particularly for his curries which I will be sure to try the next time I'm in state. Personally, I'm never able to resist jerk chicken and so upon sitting down, I promptly placed my order for jerk chicken and plantains. Unfortunately he was out of Caribbean punch but he made me a mixture of sorrel and ginger beer that was pretty good although a bit sweet for me. When my jerk chicken arrived at my table, I was in awe of the sheer amount of food I had unknowingly ordered (and very glad I hadn't ended up ordering the curry as well as one person) and of the smell. It was so hot it was smoking and I could immediately smell the flavors were legit and the chicken would be spicy. This jerk chicken was spicy in a way that sneaks up on you. I was surprised to feel my eyes watering! One of the other patrons was coughing from the spice of his meal so if you're not used to spicy food, definitely order a glass of milk in advance! The plantains were perfectly ripe, sweet and well cooked, just like I would make for myself! Harry was very kind and sweet and kept coming up to my table as well as his tables of regulars to chat and exchange stories. I'm not always the most chatty but I didn't feel uncomfortable speaking with Harry. Overall, I enjoyed my time and my meal at Harry Singh's and will be happy to return the next time I'm in the city

    I tried this restaurant after a friend recommended it. I got the jerk chicken with red beans and…read morerice, and a Jamaican meat patty. you get such a huge portion! probably enough for three or four people with the Jamaican jerk chicken and the red beans and rice. I took it to go and brought it home and ate it. My mouth was on fire, and I love spicy food, but I couldn't stop eating it because it was so good!
