A taxi driver introduced this restaurant to us as a "good luch place" and I and my husband ordered jerk chicken there. They seemed to serve food very slowly but it was not a big deal.

I didn't tell my girlfriend what I ordered and she actually liked it. We tried the curry goat and the ox tail, both were very good. Service was great and we were there early, before the crowds and had a great time learning about the culture of the area.

Not too crowded, friendly staff. In the touristy shopping area. This is located in a popular area, where locals are not allowed in..just for tourists.

The oxtail didn't taste very authentic. It is a nice spot though and the service was good so I would highly recommend you drop by for a beer while the ladies shop!
