Hands down the best jerk spot in all of Chicagoland.
I have came here twice in a row this week. I love this place food was sooooooo good omg.
Food was cooked perfectly. Customer service was friendly and warm. Half dark chicken w cabbage and yams.
1st time having it and I can say it's the best jerk place I had so far well worth it and u dnt evn need the jerk sauce my nose running without it 😭 definitely my go to now for jerk.
Some noted
Nice polite service at the window. Good atmosphere. On the other hand I had Oxtails, Yams with Macaroni & Cheese.
My experience wasn’t the best , The wait was 30-45 minutes for 4 wings .
Idk where yall are ordering from or if these are paid reviews but I tried this place twice.

This was my first time going here! Let me say the customer service was excellent! I didn’t get the woman’s name but I’m pretty sure she is the owner. She was patient, and knew the menu well! I purchased many items on the menu and the combination Pasta was one f them.. Sooo tasty!! We also received a rib tip sample which was soooo good! I will be back!

This place is BOMB! I should have took pictures of everything else I bought but I was to busy digging in! Everything was so flavorful and delicious I had no complaints. My mother in law love love loved her oxtails she's already talking about coming back next week. Definitely recommend!

“Absolutely amazing jerk food in the west suburbs.”
Absolutely amazing jerk food in the west suburbs. Everything was great and fresh. The only two things are the wait, which was a bit, but the order was placed there; definitely place it in advance, and to me, the extra jerk sauce was a bit too salty to me.
