Ordered takeout. Serverhad food ready to go when I arrived. Asked server to add on 2 slices if cake which he tried to stuff in 1 box. I asked for 2 separate containers, which I got.my bill totalled 62 dollars and some change. I was told that therestaurant only had large bills. I had 60 dollars. I had other money but only big bills. I told him that I didn't have any smaller bills so what did he want me to do about the 2 dollars and some change. He ask if I had a card and I told hi. Yes butI didn't want to use my card. I ended up using my card. The next day I checked my online banking activity and found out thatinstead of paying 62 dollars the server had actually put an 11 dollars and some change on my card which brought my total to 73dollars and Change. I called the restaurant and talked with a lady who's name I don't know but was very nice andprofessional. After explaining to her my situation she immediately credited the money back to my account. I never authorizedany tip to be taken off my debit card. This was very dishonest and it makes me feel very uncomfortable to get food from thisrestaurant again. Has this happened to others that use their credit card? This is call stealing. Over all the food was verygood!!!! I wish that I knew the lady' name that help me. You know who you are...THANK YOU SO KINDLY.

I look forward to eating Reggae Shack every time I visit Gainesville every year. It's always a treat. They make some of the best Jamaican Carribean food I've ever tasted anywhere I've traveled over the years and I'm honestly always impressed. I had theJerk Chicken, with plaintains, rice and peas (beans), and it was so delicious. The heat was perfect, I like jerk to be a littleon the hotter side and I wasn't disappointed. They also have a plethora of vegan and vegetarian options that are so incrediblygood. I cannot recommend Reggae Shack enough!
