Description

Nestled in the community, this restaurant has garnered a loyal following for its authentic flavors and generous portion sizes. While many patrons rave about dishes like ackee and saltfish, and oxtail with rice and beans, mixed reviews highlight some inconsistencies in service and execution. Occasional slip-ups with orders and underwhelming flavors in certain dishes, such as curried goat, suggest areas for improvement. Despite these challenges, the establishment remains a favorite for those craving Caribbean cuisine, with morning hours perfect for breakfast before work. Overall, it's a spot that promises hearty meals at affordable prices but could benefit from refining its offerings.

The food is amazing, the beef and chicken melt in your mouth. The patties are spicy with wonderfully flaky crusts. The cabbage is perfectly cooked with a lovely cruch. The service is very efficient. The venue is average, usually pretty hot in the summer. Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Vegetarian offerings: Not sure

Lately, every time I visit the grove hall location the old lady is nasty with me. She’s loud, rude and constantly rolls her eyes like she doesn’t want to serve me. Every time I walk in and she is there, I walk out. I don’t need to pay money for that type of nastiness. She is absolutely bad for business. She’s a witch and needs to ride out on her broom stick!
