Coming from NY it's hard to find good food in Colorado, this is the best jamaican restaurant in Colorado springs and we have tried quite a few. The food was so good we went back a couple minutes later to get some more! The chicken was juicy, tender and everything was seasoned perfectly I would highly recommend this place!!

Yummy! This is honestly the only word to use. This food is amazing. I was a little nervous to try it. The platter looked different than the photos on the website. But it is amazing. Well worth the drive and money. Tasty and unique. Every bite is better than the last one. ...

Fantastic!!! I’ve been here once before and it was but haven’t been back in a while because it’s far from where I live at. I was in the area for lunch and I how they have lunch specials!!!!! I usually go to High Grade Jamaican restaurant because it’s closer but if this place was closer, I would come here instead because their curry chicken has bone in it and the other place I go to don’t have bone in the curry chicken. Plus they have affordable lunch specials and the other place do not. The first time I came here I had a great experience too but the only thing I didn’t care for the first time was the coco bread wasn’t homemade (store bought). They probably changed it and I didn’t get it this time as you see from the picture but that was the only issue from the first time. Other than that, they are nice, you get a good serving size, taste great, and it’s affordable! 10/10 In the picture is the curry chicken lunch special! Perfection!
