The best Jamaican food in Columbus. Definitely a scary neighborhood...so order ahead and take it with you or talk to the owner and let him know what you think, Irie is his name and he does amazing work on a grill. If you want the seafood, order 30 minutes ahead.
Parking is almost non-existent. So park right in front of the driveway for pick-up. They were only taking cash when I stopped by, so I went to the N&N market 2 blocks up for cash at the ATM ($1 fee).
