Food was delicious and portions were good. A nice place to go for homestyle dishes. I had the fried Snapper was cooked to perfection very moist.

Delicious authentic style Jamaican food. They didn't water it down for Canada's taste buds which i love. It's a bit pricey for what you get, however the quality is there in the food and service is amazing. I would say a little bigger portions to even out the cost, but other then that nothing but rave reviews on the food itself and the staff. The building was never really designed for a restaurant so i won't dock them for the location, it's more of a pick up and take home food for us. We will continue to order here over the other local Jamaican restaurant because the food and service is better.

This is a must go to place in Truro if you are in the area. The food is 10/10 fall off the bone and smack you in the face delicious.

My partner and I found it by accident just following the smell from down the road. We had the Goat Curry and BBQ Fried chicken combo, and the a spicey Jamaican patty, it was amazing! They have definitely made some long time customers. Also, we will be by soon to ask to buy a jar of that BBQ sauce.

Food was delicious and tasted authentically Jamaican. Will definitely revisit to try other menu items.

First time eating here. Had the chicken special for $10. Vague description but it's curry chicken with rice and beans and a helping of potato salad. The portion size was considerably small.

My partner got the Oxtail and hers was the regular size for $20 and it was easily double the size of my platter.

I am scared to see the Large portion ! Lol

The food is very rich in flavour.

Very tasty, a lot of small little bones in my curry chicken and her ox tail. Typically eating fish I watch for bones like crazy, my chicken was as bad as that unfortunately.

Also when we arrived, it was a hour and a half till closing time, they sold out of some stuff. Very popular it would seem.

4 stars

Other than that, the food is amazing and I want to go back despite it !

The service is good and very friendly !

The presentation is not westernized and

be understanding how they serve you.

5 stars !

The atmosphere is bland with distinction of Jamaica.

It has potential to be better down the road, I would of loved to see more relics and homeage of Jamaica all spread around in there.

At the counter they had more of a representation of Jamaica in their drinks in the cooler and desserts in a container over the decor. Amusing and I would love to see more !

The Pineapple ginger fruit juice is about $6 a bottle, very sugary but goes extremely well with the curry dishes, something I did not expect and found very amusing !

I would recommend it, beware at first the drink is very ginger potent, but after a few morsels of your curry dish it tames and feels more juicy, very weird but very cool.

Overall give support to these ppl. Support local if you can !

The food here is so good. They don’t have all the selections during the week and so I started out kind of disappointed. But when I got the chicken stew and goat curry it all went away. They were delicious. The coleslaw was crisp and fresh. I would go back here in a heartbeat!

I'm from Toronto where there is a large Jamaican population. I stopped by to try this place out while driving thru Truro. The food is excellent. Everyone should give it a try. It's the real deal!

Bless up yuhself

By far one of the best Jamaican restaurants in Canada. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who would like to experience authentic Jamaican cuisine at its best. This is my new favourite place in Atlantic Canada
