I finally made it back since opening earlier this week and the food was outstanding so I’m back again two days later trying something different. The oxtails are great, the curry goat is amazing, I’m trying brown stew chicken tonight which I’m sure will be just as good. Support this business you won’t be disappointed. Friendly staff comfortable atmosphere with …

My friend told me about this restaurant and I had to try it. I ended up going with some friends and it was absolutely delicious. We got patties, jerk chicken, fried chicken and oxtails. Everything was authentic and delicious. Each came with rice and peas, vegetables and plantains. Ordering is a little different. They have screens and you select what’s …

This restaurant is a little pot of gold in High Point. I can't wait until they expand to Greensboro NC. The food taste like love from this mom & daughter team. The front of the house is ran by the daughter who is so very polite and charming. The food is prepared by the mother with excellent timing and is …

They were here to support my grandson Savion (the "New" Afro Ninja) during his …

Had a wonderful experience at Island Fest. The service was quick, kind and accurate. I got oxtail, Mac n cheese, coco bread, jerk chicken patty and Pinapple ginger juice and everything was very good. The portion sizes for the oxtail were very generous compared to other places I’ve been and the oxtail was very tender and well seasoned. I would …

We are so glad we came here for dinner today! Food was delicious, the lady out front is super sweet!

I came here just to try the chicken curry patties. Since it was my first time I didn’t want to purchase a whole meal and be disappointed. I ordered the chicken patty and my husband ordered the cabbage. Both items were very tasty. My husband likes his cabbage crunchy so if you don’t like crunchy cabbage you may not the …
