I have lived in CT for the past 8 years and have always been searching for a great Jamaican Restaurant. Look no further!!! I found it today!!!Family Flamez Restaurant in Fairfield, CT, is the best Jamaican Restaurant in ALL of CT.I bought a medium Oxtail with rice and peas. After the first bite, I don’t know what happened, because the plate was empty in a flash. Luckily I bought a Festival and I used it to wipe up every last bit of the gravy, it was that good!!!If you’re ever in CT and looking for authentic Jamaican Cuisine, Family Flamez is the place to go. Sorry no photos to display because the food was gone before I knew it. Compliments to the Chefs!!!! - Marline Wong
