"Found this place while exploring the neighborhood with my family and was in the mood for some good Jamaican food. Upon entering the restaurant we were greeted by our waitress and were told to sit anywhere. We asked if they had a high chair for my daughter however they didn't which was a little bummer. We were going to leave and try somewhere else but I wanted to try their food. As we sat I noticed the simple decor on the walls. The chairs that were used were cheap outdoor foldable chairs that you would get from Walmart. I didn't mind because most Jamaican restaurants don't usually focus on decor and mostly on the food.Waited about 15mins before the waitress could take our order. I ordered a homemade sorrel, oxtail with rice peas, j chicken with rice peas, and an order of macaroni and cheese. Got the sorrel drink in less than 5 minutes and it tasted delicious, however, the food took almost 30min to come out. Once again I didn't mind as I knew it had to be fresh! When the food finally arrived the waitress apologized for the long wait which was nice of her. The oxtail was soft and tender and fell off the bone. It was flavorful and the portion size was decent for $30. The j chicken had a good amount of spice and might be the best j chicken I've had thus far. I did notice we didn't get any plantains with our entrees as I seen in other yelp reviews. The macaroni and cheese was the worse I've had. For $10 The cheese was not melted and although it had a nice crisp at the top it was very hard to chew. Tasted like hard chips! Overall the establishment was great and the food was delicious. If I am ever in the neighborhood I would get the food again!"

Nice people friendly service and amazing food. I moved away 13+ years ago and one bite of oxtail and I was transported right back. The prices have gone up but the quality has too. Highly highly recommended.

What a fun night! Closer to home than I even realized. Sad I couldn't spend it with Anders and Chloe, but Katy and Erika were there to host the best of Halloween times. Most epic Rocky Horror showing I've been to in years!

Such a cool bar (loved the Doctor Who/steampunk decor), and everyone was so friendly! The bartender chatted with us about Comic-Con, and then someone made sure to find us enough chairs so we could all watch the movie that was playing.

One of my favorite venues for live music is The Way Station. Anders really knows how to create a great atmosphere. If you're in Brooklyn and searching for a place with fantastic live performances and an impressive beer selection, this is the spot for you!
