My boyfriend and I came here and ordered the mac & cheese oxtails, the jerk chicken entree, a beef patty, the sweet potato pie and some drinks. We paid $75!! 1st, we’re happy to pay if the quality of food and the service we were given matches what we paid for. The mac and cheese seemed like it had been sitting forever and turned into a mashed potatoes consistency with tons of cheese and bits of oxtail. There were no individualized pieces of mac and cheese, it was just mashed all together, Mac and cheese mush. I could barely tell if there were pieces of mac and cheese. The jerk chicken platter was halfway inedible. The chicken was dry, had no flavor. It was like the chicken was made and they sprinkled jerk chicken seasoning on top. The rice and beans were inedible. The beef patty tasted like something you could’ve gotten at the dollar tree. You wouldn’t be able to tell the difference if you tasted their beef patty and one from the grocery store. The texture was like eating a beef puree, and no visible beef inside at all, not worth $8 for just ONE BEEF PATTY. The only nice thing I could say is that the sweet potato pie was good, but definitely not worth $9. I would go elsewhere before paying for that tiny thing. It wasn’t like I would go crazy to buy it but probably the best thing that we ordered. I would NOT pay for this sub par food again. And the server wasn’t even happy to serve us. The food came out in like 3 minutes, so it’s not like it was being prepared in the back. It’s almost like they have it on warmers and bring it out like a fast food instead of a restaurant type of service. I will not...
Read moreI sooooooo wanted to like this vendor. Today, they were at my job and I ordered oxtails.
1st - The staff was very friendly and pleasant, which was great. My review is about the food.
2nd - Im happy to report that the meat was super tender and falling off the bone, the way it should have been. That part was great! However, the meat was FLAVORLESS. It was as if they just slow cooked the oxtails and didn't season them at all. I'm not talking about being spicy, they weren't spicy. I'm saying I was expecting them to be well seasoned oxtails and they were bland and tasteless. There seem to be no seasoning salt, no black pepper, no nothing you would normally use to season meat with.
3rd - Honestly, what I ordered was over priced. I've gotten the same lunch from several other Jamaican food restaurants and never paid as much as I did today. I'm really disappointed. (sigh) Well? I guess, it's back to Lee's Caribbean in...
