“ This food was delicious! We normally drive to Atlanta to get food like this. Dont be afraid, the neighborhood is a little sketchy, but this is a gem. You wont regret it. I ate the red snapper and my husband and daughter ate the oxtail. It was all so good and the portions are great. We ate outside and it went well. Second visit I returned last night 12823 and I was so excited to receive my whole fish! I didnt know how to order it, I just said a whole fish with the head and all and they looked at my weirdly, I guess because people around here dont order that! I am from the Dominican Republic so thats right up my alley! I added pictures here to show you how happy I was with this purchase. The dish was 20, but I got like two plates of food! I definitely can take the leftovers home! I love this place, it reminds me of my little island in Hispaniola. ”
“ Really great food! Flavorful and filling. I ordered the jalapeno cornbread served as two muffins. I also ordered a jerk wrap. Wrap with meat and cabbage served with an orange flavorful sauce. Only spent 13. Great value. I will return. Update I love this place! The spicy beef Patties are awesome! The jerk quesadillas are very flavorful and a big portion. ”
“ 1010 Highly recommended. Trust me you wont be disappointed!!! ”
“ I decided to change things up and check out this wellknown Caribbean restaurant. Im so happy I did, right when you walk in your hit with the amazing Jamaican food aroma. I couldnt decide on what I wanted, so I got a variety dont judge me, lol. I ordered 5 different entrees, jerk chicken, curry goat, jerk salmon, brown stew chicken, and oxtails. The wait time was about 30 minutes, but i didnt mind at all. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, was amazing. I will definitely be back very soon ”
“ This was delivery, so I cant speak much about the environment, but the food scratched a mighty itch. The chicken was seasoned DOWN! Super tender and delicious. The rice and peas were less coconutty than Im used to, but still tasted amazing. The whole plate was still piping hot too. The portions were beyond nice. The plate was 12.50 and the patty was 3. The last time I got a comparable plate, it was 25. I will be ordering again! ”
“ Hands down the best Caribbean restaurant Ive had. Whenever I come through Birmingham I go. I actually look for reasons to pass by I always get the jerk chicken and my husband loves the curry goat and adds beef patties. Very good and authentic! And plenty of food! ”
“ My cousin and I decided to take a road trip to get some Caribbean food, we stopped here and was not disappointed at all. The food is fresh and hot. I was surprised that the Mac and cheese was that food and filling. I ordered mild beef patty, jerk chicken patty, oxtails, Mac and cheese and rice and peas. Thats some REAL rice and peas ! Will definitely be back. ”
“ The curry lamb, jerk pasta, jerk chicken was all good. I drove across town just to try this restaurant and it did not disappoint. You taste the jerk seasoning throughout the meat and the portions sizes are great compared to other places that I have visited. I know where to come when, I want some good caribbean foods. ”
