Entrees here come with a choice of two sides, such as plantains, mac and cheese, or Rasta pasta. While the oxtail is tender enough to fall off the bone, some diners note its sauce can run thin, and the sides have received mixed reviews for lacking flavor. There is no indoor seating at this counter-service venue, so meals are strictly takeout. You can expect generous portions at reasonable prices, though customer service experiences tend to vary, ranging from patient and helpful to less consistent.
