    Beautiful location, service was excellent. However we were the only table at the time. The quality and taste of the food varied greatly depending on the food. Brussels sprouts and smashed burger were excellent., The salmon was a small portion and overcooked and the fried green tomatoes were soggy.

    I’ve had another location before, but I was really excited about eating here being that it’s now so close to home. The food was overall good, it met my expectations. However our waitress needed more training. She was very forgetful/clueless. There were also some discrepancies with the menu and pricing. Be sure to review your checks before leaving because they will slap items on your bill that you didn’t receive!! I would rate this location 7/10

    We had a party of 8 before a show at the Acorn Center. They asked us at the start if we were attending a show so they could manage accordingly. Service was excellent and timely. Everyone was very happy with their meal.

    The best burger I’ve had in a long time. My friend had special tacos and she liked them. We both devoured almost all of our entrees. We had no room for desert! It will be a repeat!

    The food is nothing short of outstanding, showcasing bold and authentic Caribbean flavors in every bite. From perfectly seasoned jerk chicken to rich, aromatic chicken curry, amazing chicken pineapple fried rice is a celebration of the islands. The service is equally impressive; the staff is attentive, friendly, and eager to make your experience unforgettable. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. Highly recommend!
