I come here often and had a taste for oxtail. The place is small and parking is on the street. The service is mediocre but the server was lenient when it came to the minimum of $15 for credit card transactions. I was a little under. Now let's talk about the food. The oxtail was soo good today. It had fall off the bone meat. I was disappointed though because they didn't have anymore kola champagne.

I ordered ackee n saltfish through Uber, The restaurant called and advised, it was finished and gave me options, excellent consideration, I choose the salt mackerel, Let me tell you something, 10 out of 10, not overly salty, excellent balance and flavor, pepper ratio on point, I am very impressed and as a Jamaican, I am not so easily. Next time I'm in town again, it's a must for me.

Let me say the smell of the food was old when I received it, the food was not hot, and GREASE was seeping out from the sides of the plate. Not gravy. I tasted one oxtail it was not even warm and it was TOUGH. The rice I had to spit out, and didn’t waste my time trying the cabbage after that.

I was really hungry today. My wife was too. So we decided to get some real Jamaican food. We felt led in spirit to get something at Tasty Jamaican & American restaurant. I had had enough of fried chicken so I opted for a large stewed beef...mm..mm.mmm!!😋 This you've got to try!!! The soft, succulent beef was richly flavored and the rice & peas/beans with a little gravy splashed over it?? Good lord have mercy. Guys, you've gotta try it for yourselves in order to understand the level of ecstasy to which you'll be transported. I'll give them a 4 star rating. Could have been 5 but I need to keep a ...
