What Eric M likes about Irie Foods Caribbean Cuisine:
This was my first visit to Irie Foods, and it will certainly not be my last! I think this is the start of a wonderful friendship!! I went in and ordered take out Curried chicken with roti. Even added a Ginger Beer for good measure! Boy was I in for a treat when I got home the food was delicious! I ordered also for my son and he enjoyed it very much as well. We will be back!!!
