Absolutely amazing food. You KNOW a place is good when 3 people go there, get different meals and all end up arguing that their plate was the best one of the night after sharing.

Island taste in Seattle! I came in after a doctor appointment and was warmly welcomed by the hostess. I ordered the Ackee and Saltfish, which tasted just like I was on the island. Generous portions at an affordable price. The fried plantains were a great dessert. An awesome meal!

Scan the QR code to look at the menu. We both ordered the oxtail, meat pie, appetizer sampler plate and got the Kingston Pina coladas. That was the best pina colada I’ve ever had! The sampler plate had jerk wings, plantains, bread, & dumplings. Everything had great flavors. The service needs improvement. I had to ask about our Pina coladas because it took a long, long, long time and it wasn’t even busy.

Food is expensive for what you get. The oxtail is good, the jerk chicken wings is dry and no flavor. Who serves white rice with jerk chicken in a jamaican restaurant. The vegetable/salad stinks and tasteless.

Always a good time! Friendly staff and patrons. When I’m in Seattle, I can count on Red Lounge. Don’t forget to hop in on Friday and Saturday nights to dance to the latest afro-Caribbean and reggae beats!

Had the honor of taking one my friends to eat dinner here tonight and the food was so good. She had the oxtails and I had the jerk chicken. The meat was so juicy and tender and literally falling off the bone. Our server was very professional and even made us a special passion fruit juice beverage. I forgot to get his name but I hope he still there the next time I go!

Sherry Corney
This is one of our favorite date night places. They are consistent in food and service. Everything is so tasty and authentic. Highly recommend!

Food here is amazing but the service is off. Last time I came here I ordered a veggie patty but got meat. I brushed it off. This time I ordered festival and there’s no sauce. You guys had no one dining in and 3 online orders including mines. If you decide to get takeout double check, hell, triple check as these guys forget something and save your tips until you have verified everything is in your order….
