I am definitely a reviewer that believes that everyone should be praised in public and also provided an opportunity for growth. The location was extremely clean upon entering. And the young men that serviced me were kind and very articulate.
Establishment 1-5: 5!
During my visit there was no menu up on the wall or on the multiple TV screens within the establishment. However, menus are available for review.
I am a vegetarian/ and most times vegan. After living in Atlanta many years I was very excited to see if they had the veggie patties, Unfortunately they did not😪. (Even though they were listed on the menu).
I ordered a veggie plate that had plantains cabbage red beans and rice and yams.
Yams 🍠: 1-5 were a strong 4...just quite couldn't catch the butter or nutmeg, But good nonetheless.
Cabbage: 🥬 1-5 were a 3. If you are the kind of person that doesn't desire it a lot of flavor then this is for you. I saw very little bell pepper & onion And it was a bit bland.
Plantains: 1-5 were a 5. The plantains were cooked just right and were very flavorful. Not too hard, nor too soft.
Red Beans 🫘 & Rice 🍚: 1-5 were a 3 1/2. The red beans and rice were okay 👍🏽
Lastly the presentation was a 4 1/2. The red beans 🫘 & Rice 🍚 , along with the plantains were place in an aluminum foil make shift cup. 😔
*❗️❗️For health/ hazardous possibilities a person would never want to puncture or tear off a piece of the foil leading to potential consumption.😪
Overall, its adds a good bit of variety to our city! Give...
Read morevery disappointing, my family and i will not be revisiting here. it was our first time trying this place out and the prices were pretty normal to us until we actually received the food. the portion wasn’t even enough for a 5 year old. it looked like we had a half scoop of everything we got. we spent $50+ because we wanted to try a bit of everything and all of it was disappointing. i got the chicken curry lunch which the flavor was very good but i only had enough for 5 bites maybe. there was BARELY any rice and beans. i mean like a actual teaspoonful. the mac and cheese was flavorless. it tasted like i was chewing on thick air. the salad we got had brown lettuce all through it so we didn’t eat that. my auntie asked if her rice and beans could be in a bowl instead of under her chicken and the cashier acted like that was a difficult and strange request. so we asked the cook and he did that for her. not to mention the chicken was so freaking small and 3 pieces came in the lunch. the only good thing that i can say i liked was the fried plantains. this was a very disappointing first time experience but they have just opened so i’m trying to give them the benefit of...
Read moreFirst, out of pure luck my husband and I were driving to McLaren when we pasted “ALT Authentic Jamaican Jerk” We stopped in and the place was clean and so inviting. The service was impeccable. There are so many options on the menu. Everything is homemade and fresh! Her homemade Jerk sauce is even made fresh daily. Everything has so much flavor. One of the side dishes I got was the steamed cabbage. Never in my life did I think I’d say I can’t wait to go back for some more of that steamed cabbage! She said it was her grandmothers recipe. I bet everyone loved going to dinner at grandmas house back in the day. I’m not kidding when I tell you everything blew my mind. My husband and I went to Jamaica for our honeymoon. It has been some years since but I want to say these dishes were even better. You also get so much food! We tried the Jerk chicken, candied yams, steamed cabbage, fried plantains, Mac & cheese, red bean & rice and their homemade veggie patties. All was out of this world. Next time I’ll be trying their red snapper and...
