Wings were tender with the perfect amount of spice and charred. The yams are a must, rice was slightly undercooked and the macaroni was satisfying. Extra jerk sauce was included without asking. I'll definitely be back. Order ahead, I used grubhub and it was ready in 10-15m. Give them a try, this is a great option in the area!

Jerk goat is the best. For some reason the chicken is usually dry and the jerk sauce a little heavy. The service is good and never had a problem with the food. The ambience could use a facelift.

Food was really great! Ordering over the phone was easy, location is easy to find in a strip mall. We ordered jerk chicken and oxtail dinners. Our wait time was quoted to be 20minutes, we arrived closer to 40 minutes later and still had to wait another 20minutes so expect that your wait time may be extended, my only complaint. Everything was seasoned and cooked well with large portions & extra sauce. Was pleasantly surprised to find that all the dinner meals came with rice too.

My first time coming further west on the 9 for Jerk Chicken and I'm definitely coming back. I had The jerk chicken dinner with side of Mac and sweet potatoes. When I tell you that I scraped every morsel of food off the black tray... I was well pleased with everything. They're in my top 3 for jerk on the south west side of Chicago.

We were in the area and craving jerk food, so we came here. The girl working the counter was very friendly. The restaurant was clean. They do share a parking lot with other businesses. I ordered that jerk chicken dark dinner. It came with red beans and rice and I chose macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes. My dinner was $12. I thought it was definitely worth the price and the food was pretty good. My only complaint was there was a lot of small bones in the chicken and kind of hard to eat at times. Portions were big on the side dishes. My fiancé enjoyed his curry chicken dinner. His was $15 and he chose cabbage and plantains.
