The restaurant is nice, clean and minimalist. I got the curry chicken as a lunch special. It was flavorful and similar to most curry. The rice was soaked so a bit mushy. It might be better if they didn’t try to cramp everything into one takeout container. Nevertheless it was a nice and quick option for lunch.

First of all, they had braised oxtail and the customer service is really great! The ambiance is really chill and relaxed, and the decor passes the vibe check! Ordered dinner to go but will definitely stop by for a dine-in experience! The food is really good. The curry and the braised oxtail were chef’s kiss! I will definitely be back. The Jerk Chicken was definitely one for the books! Thank you!

This is our second time ordering here. Food taste pretty authentic and I love the fact that everything tastes very fresh. The portion size is very large and 1 container was basically 2 meals in one. They gave us complimentary cornbread and it was so delicious ! My 1.5yr old daughter cheated me and ate pretty much the whole slice of cornbread but the little I had was perfectly crisp yet moist. My husband enjoyed his jerk chicken and was impressed by the flavor, smokiness, and tender chicken. Again, everything tasted very authentic and delicious. Overall, we’re really happy with this restaurant and can honestly say it’s better than another popular Jamaican spot in Frederick.

We stopped into this restaurant which is located in a nondescript shopping strip. We tried the chicken soup, oxtail, jerk pork, and curry goat and were blown away by how good the food is. Authentic Jamaican food. You could tell everything was made with quality ingredients and was well prepared. We also tried the sorrel, it was my first time trying it and it was delicious! We dined in and the staff were so kind and provided such great service. The chef also stopped by to check on us and learned he is well trained chef from NYC. We could tell he is passionate about the food he serves. Thank you Chef Richard for bringing this awesome food to Frederick!

Good afternoon, I tried your food for the first time. Your prices are very high. The pork was great still room for improvement with the pork but overall it was okay. The rice it tastes like plastic rice, to be honest with you I know it’s balsamic rice does not go with jerk pork. Just a suggestion use regular rice it’s more filling because right now we ate and we’re kind of still hungry. The portion size of the rice was not good, the meat okay, but the rice we so light and the festival was not any good it was too hard and it doesn’t seem like it was fresh. but overall it was not bad there is still room improvement. The food was better than Jerk n Jive so I will come back again to try.

We were in the area and decided to try this restaurant for lunch (take out). We ordered curry chicken, festival, and grilled and steamed vegetables. To our pleasant surprise, the food was fresh and delicious! My husband is from the Caribbean and he loved it. The grilled vegetables were perfectly done. As for the curry chicken, it was one of the best curry chickens we’ve had in Maryland. The portion was very generous also (ordered large). If we lived nearby, we would definitely be going back often. This will be our go to place whenever we are in the area again.

The place is wonderful. It is family owned & run. Never had better jerked chicken. My friend had the curry and she said it was good too.

If I could give this restaurant 20/10, I definitely would! It’s a family restaurant and I personally know the owner to whom he is family to me, I went there the first time today and I had their Jerk Pork with plantains, rice and peas and fried dumplings and cleansed my palate with a Jamaican Kola Champagne soda! The food was fabulous! Their saltfish (codfish) fritters were so good, I had to take an order for the road with me and my wife. She had oxtails with steamed veggies and Mac and cheese and she enjoyed it. Even when I stepped out a guy asked me if the food was good and I told him to go in and give it a try, he will not be disappointed! Will I drive an hour just to eat good food and support family business? Absolutely! They’ll be seeing myself and my family there again in the near future!
