"This establishment is CASH ONLY This is a must visit if in this area Due to some unfortunate circumstances we are in the Mount Vernon area for a few days and wanted something different.

Our dishes were both excellent, my sister had the Jungle Special which is J Salmon and Pasta Noodles in a delicious Creamy White Sauce. I had the J Chicken with Rice and Peas and a side of Plaintains that were all as delicious.

This is a must visit, but if I have to remember to hit the ATM before my visit and there's an easier payment option at another establishment then........"
