  This restaurant has a nice, cozy and classy ambiance. It is really pretty, and the food is excellent. I had an order of Jerk Shrimps as entree, they were extremely great, the spices, the portion, the dressing on veggies; 5/5. I had a Stew chicken plate as dinner and also loved it. The only reason why I am rating this place 4/5 is because the service was fast, but the server was cold, I was expecting better vybes from the service. But it didn't affect my experience really much, food was so good that I didn't really care that much. I will be back for suure

  Our service experience was really not up to par. We came to the restaurant on a Wednesday and was the second seated table around 5:45pm.
  
  We placed our order with the server and the server came back to double check with us the order and our chosen sides. When the entrees came out, the server placed the incorrect dish in front of us (we were a party of 2).
  
  Also the sides for the entrees were also wrong. The jerk chicken entree was suppose to come with rice and beans while the oxtail stew had the "seasonal vegetables".  I believe they offered to take care of the mistake after we brought it to his attention as he was serving it but we decided that was too much effort and waiting for this mistake. We ended up rearrange the plates ourselves to get the order right after they left to attend to other customers.
  
  Points given to the food as it tasted like it was made skill and care but I think the price is more reflective of the area. You can find more value for money at other places imo.
  
  We ordered the quarter jerk chicken entree and the oxtail stew. Both were savoury and good choices that would make people happy. The spicy chicken jus for the jerk chicken provided some heat and umami flavour. The oxtail pieces were tender and fell off the bone with little effort required.
  
  I'm going to come out and say that a garden salad is not reflective of the menu saying "seasonal vegetables". It's a small point but I think it's important.
  
  The decor in the restaurant is nice to look at especially the bar section but I don't think that was enough to make up for a very lacklustre experience overall.

  What's my feeling after dining here? A-Ok, which is exactly 3-star. We ordered Callaloo and Ackee & Saltfish. Callaloo, to me, is whole bunch of vegetables cooked in heavy oil. The salted fish in the Ackee & Saltfish is good. However, it took somewhat longer than expected time to get these 2 dishes and I have a feeling that I am paying extra 2 dollars for each dish for the rent on Yonge street, not the food itself. Overall, it is pretty mediocre. If you want to try Jamaican food, you would visit once.

  Amazzzzing!!!!
  
  Is all I can say. I had the curry goat and an order of festival and they both had So much flavor. Plus the service was excellent. Best meal I've had in Toronto! I highly recommend this restaurant.

  Be ready for your orders to have an unacceptably long wait time. The food is good...If it ever actually gets to you. Dine-In orders have wait times of over an hour and Pick-ups are impossible with their ever-changing schedules. Do not go out of your way to visit.
