Forced myself to eat the oxtail because I didn't wanted to waste my money. Imagine that. The gravy was black and thick and overall salty salty x10. And no butter beans. That's a common and key ingredient that brings out the meat dish. By the presentation and being served it is not known. The cabbage was extremely over cooked with the salt. HIt's cabbage!! How can you over cook cabbage?? Is healthy eating not promoted here?? And wats's it with it and the SALT. That just made it HYPERTENSION. If you do not know Jamaican dishes you will rate K & R as the best. But it not the case in my opinion. If you know how the dishes are made, tasted, seasoned and should look. My beloved man had the curry chicken and narrowly escaped a hospital admission. I will say the same for me but smartly I didn't consume any. He continuously had to be on and off the tiolet like a human yo-yo. It has being extremly terrible for him with an already a weak stomach and K & R crashed it. Now he had to say his vows on several occasions It goes like this. "I WILL NEVER EVER EAT or BUY FROM THEM AGAIN." And I just added to his VOWS curried foods can be dangerous if one does not KNOW how to cook it and be selling it to the public. Evidently, the alleged make shift cookers don't know how to. Because he wouldn't have had diarrhoea. The ppl cooking the dishes need to be reshuffled with cook books in hand and return to Jamaican culinary school and learn from the best. Because that is not good and safe food and its not right. I told my man on multiple occasions that hey you got to be careful when it comes to curry and eating it from ppl. At one point pior we debated extensively about what to buy from K & R and in the end he said curry chicken I just wished him safe luck on it and said I don't want to any of that. He never brought it on that occasion Another thing is that it's like the food is just plastered in the container and its just looking like a slab of diarrhoea in a plastic container, disgusting. Seems as if there is no care when putting the food in the container. Its just a down right turn off. The restaurant it self is greatly built but the food needs a better master chef and not just random cookers who basically in my opinion cannot cook. Not everyone can follow a basic recipe expecially the seasoning. And don't try to justify this. It would be better for it to be bland than the heap of salt. The cookers are to heavy handed. They cook it as they would eat it. And whats it with the swimming pool (gravy) is just visualy unappetising. See pic. How can you present that thing. I think the best pics were photo shopped as it is nothing served or look like what is being sold to the public. Who in their right screws serves food like that know to the fact in the resturant world ppl eat with their eyes as well. You don't know what going on underneath it and maybe afraid to know. Don't know who the managers they should call an emergency meeting as this needs attention before someone is seriously ill. But they may not even know what is being sold to the public. This is our experience and it cannot be justify when someone narrowly escaped a hospital visit and admission. AND don't counteract this by stating "you didn't mention our expectations' it just a poor excuse. Because other ppl left their reviews by the way ppl "Don't forget to bring your water" and lots of as the salt is the highlight of the resturant and the swimming pool (gravy)
This is my experience and not a personal thing. One cannot be criticize for their own experience. I do not eat curry from outside because I know it can be dangerous if not cooked properly. Not many people know this. I had to inform whomever I know if they contemplate to...
Read moreI’ve had 2 instances with this restaurant. My sister and I went in one day to eat about 2 months ago after I found them online and seemed like a good place to try. The brother greeted us was cool. Answered all our questions about the food so we tried the King Fish, Jerk Chicken, Potato Greens, Attieke Sauce. The potato greens were just lil salty but the flavor was great. The King Fish I wasn’t impressed with (it was my first time having it) guess I was expecting something else. The Jollof Rice was very good. The jerk chick was good also and the host/server made sure we had everything we needed and was attentive.
2nd Instance: Tonight I tried to call to order some food for pick up and some lady with an attitude answered the phone and didn’t give no sort of greeting, just hello. I had to ask “is this K&R?” she said YEA, I replied I’d like to place an order, she said “WELL WHAT DO YOU WANT!” I’m like excuse me… she replied again: “What Do You Want!l”… I just hung up. I don’t want to order from anyplace who don’t know how to promote your business proper when answering the phone or don’t know how to greet and customer. I wish the first brother would teach his staff how to greet cause for a lot of folks Customer Service is high on the priority list. I’ll skip over the fanciest, best restaurant if the service was horrible. I won’t spend any money of my hard earned money at a place that can’t do the most important job of greeting someone properly but most folks treat/greet you how they see you. So if they greet your horribly then that’s how they most likely see you. All good though I’ll just order from...
