"We had a Friday evening reservation. Seating was done quickly. The person serving as our wait person was friendly and she did a nice job of appearing when needed. Expectation vs reality is truly the way to sum up the food experience. ONLINE MENU VERSUS RESTAURANT MENU The menu online and the menu we were given were starkly different. Honestly it felt like bait and switch. There was no Phoulourie on the menu. There were no Roti dishes or Buss Up Shut dishes (which equates to 10 missing items). There were 3 sides missing from the menu (Callaloo, Rice and Beans, and the Boiled and Fried Cassava). The menu had no drinks. I don’t know if they actually had peanut punch or any of the others. I asked if they had sorrel tea and the wait person advised they would check because they weren’t sure. They did have it. SORRELL TEA It was OK. A bit sweeter than others I have had. CORN SOUP Quite tasty. Looks nothing like the photo online, this was more of a puree. CARIBBEAN SALAD I don’t know how long it was sitting around. Mediocre at best. VEGGIES MEDLEY Served room temperature. I am not sure why it wasn’t served hot. The pumpkin puree was good. There were 3 green beans on the plate. The chickpea portion lack flavor. I spent a lot of time pushing it around on the plate. The rice was edible. CHUNKY VEGETABLE CHOW MEIN Served cold. Overly sweetened sauce. SWEET CINNAMON PLANTAIN Served cold. I have had these before elsewhere. Cinnamon is usually an enhancement not the overkill that existed here. MACARONI PIE It was good. Unfortunately, it was also served cold. I have to wonder if food is being made or if it is just sitting in hot plates not kept up to temperate. The it was quite a disappointing experience. I would expect the food to be served at temperature and have some flavor. We ate what we could because we had an event to go to and no opportunity to get anything else for the night. What I do know is that we won’t be going back again."

I found the food to be cold, and the rice was tough. The drinks arrived with too much ice, so by the time we were ready to drink them, they were watery. The staff informed us that our food would take 20 minutes, but we didn't receive it until 45 minutes later. Overall, the customer service and food quality left a lot to be desired.

A staff member then brought out another small table and combined it with the tiny one in an attempt to create a more usable setup. Although the two tables were uneven, they covered them with a cloth and reset the place settings. We were asked if we wanted to use that arrangement but repeated our request for the empty table for four, only to be told "no" again. As we were heading to a show and needed to eat beforehand, we eventually decided to take the uneven small table. A few minutes later, the couple who arrived after us was seated at the table for four that we had originally requested. The service was slow; we had to ask for water even after I initially ordered it as my drink. Our meals...
