At least, definitely not for lunch. I met someone here for lunch at 12:30 on a Thursday and we were the only ones in the place. We thought great, service will be fast then! No, it took about 30 minutes for them to get us a burger and a steak salad with us being the only diners in the restaurant. There were about 4 staff members milling

We ordered jolaf rice with jerk chicken and tuna with jolaf rice. The rice wassomething I never tasted. They seasoned it so well and it aas a bit spicy but it was a good kind of spice. You don’t feel itinstantly but after a while it hits you. The seasoning for jerk chicken was also kind of unique. I tried the salmon from myfriend but it kind of had a fishy flavor which didn’t go well with my taste bud.

I had to get the attention of the host 3 times???? in order to have our waitress come over initially, then to get our drinks, then to get the check. The 4thand 5th times I asked another server to assist. Pretty sad.???? We waited for about 50 minutes to get our food which washorrible????! Aside from that, both hosts were amazing and the food was delish????. My only complaint regarding the food is itwas a bit on the salty side. A little too heavy on the salt. Otherwise, everything was scrumptious. There was a birthday ???????? party happening so the music was booming. The selection was great and the dj was good. The waitress said everything tooklong because of the party. I say...regardless of a party, youre supposed to have enough manpower to server others in a timelyfashion period! Would I go back? Yes. Despite the long wait, I like to give restaurants 2 to 3 trys before I write them off.So the answer is... I would Definitely go back! I'd suggest, don't go on the weekend because you may not get in. Some peoplewere being turned away because there was no more room. That's probably because of the party, but my guess is, wherever the foodis amazing, the crowd is overflowing. ??
