It’s so refreshing when you try a black / Caribbean owned restaurant and have no complaints. The guy that served me was super nice and friendly. The restaurant was extremely clean. It’s a mix of Guyanese, Jamaican and Trinidadian. The menu is extensive but not overwhelming. So many great options, I couldn’t decide on one thing so I decided to try an Ackee patty, a lunch special meal which consisted of rice and peas, fried chickens and cabbage and a shark burger with sweet potato fries. EVERYTHING was amazing. There was a bit of a wait for the shark burger as they make it fresh to order which I can appreciate. My sister had the lunch special and as you can see by the photo, she thoroughly enjoyed her meal. I can’t wait to return to try their smoothies and wraps and bowls. I wish they were in my neighborhood but I’ll be back :) - Ladii E
