This was my first time here. I had been looking for a Caribbean restaurant that service all meals fresh. Yes, you have to wait but it was great. I can tell fresh cook food. My stomach is very sensative.

Everything was tasty. Was full of flavor. Wasn’t piping hot the way I like it. Almost always warm. Which sucks! Also for $14.99 for Oxtails, 5 of them is unacceptable with all that warm gravy. But very yummy. The employees, well the one guy was very rude. They are rude when you place orders. Talk to you like you have no worth. Its not welcoming at all. But the food is good. Timing is also ridiculous lately.

Worst food I’ve ever had. I couldn’t finish the meal even after spending $30. Jerk chicken didn’t taste like jerk. It looked like its oven baked. The rice was rough and they pour so much sauce on it.Would never step foot in this place again. In the word of my friend, “even a dog wouldn’t eat this food.” Also, my cabbage tasted old.Customer service could’ve been better. If you don’t have what someone ordered and they weren’t made aware,you’re supposed to accommodate them by offering them something for the inconvenience.

I recommend driving with the traditional food options. My first time experience was okay. I grabbed a quick bite of 2 spicy beef patties and a order of fried wings.

I have been looking for good home food and came Accross this place… I should have read the reviews. They cooking for the American taste buds, no flavor at all. I ordered a large oxtail it literally came with 6 small pieces of meat, No flavor watery sauce, soft boiled rice, cold food. The jerk chicken is literally baked chicken with fake jerk sauce no flavor and hard like yard fowl. None of the food was hot yet it took almost 40min. I want a REFUND. Waste of $30 dollars.

I waited 30 mins for my order and it wasn’t even a busy time. The people are not even friendly at all. They don’t greet you, they don’t smile, they look miserable and they don’t care period! At least let your customers know if there’s going to be a delay on your order right? But of course they won’t. They just take your money and make you wait. Didn’t I say they don’t care?

First of all they told me and brother that it was going to be a 25 min wait. We waited 30 mins and now that we know how good the food is we would have gladly waited 45 mins for our food. My brother had the Chicken Curry, Greens, and Mac & Cheese, I had the Oxtails with Rice, Peas and Macaroni Salad. If We ever come back to Dover we will be coming back to TDC. I tell you if you live in Dover and you live around TDC, you need to stop by this place if you’re looking for some great Soul Food, because this is the place to come to get your grub on.

I used to love this place but the last couple times were so disappointing. The rice wasn’t burnt but tasted like it and the oxtails were rubbery. It used to have amazing food I don’t know what happened.

I’ve heard mixed reviews about this place from friends/family so i figured I’d try it out and see for myself. Regrettably, the food wasn’t that great. I ordered here several times.
