Terrible customer service. I called to order and was told I needed to come in. Get there and was told they were closed but forgot to lock the door after I was told to come in and order

Didn't get a chance to test food cause of the rude Jamaican girl at the counter, seem like she was in a bad mood, never spend your money somewhere like that!

Hey, i'm from washington d c and cultural and food is what we do I visited pittsburgh and let me just say he did not disappoint!
I really hate it when people americanize the food. People need to learn to handle the heat.

The food was good, but the service is ridiculous. Suppose to open at 12 normally opens around 1/1: 30. Went at 5: 30pm before and the place was closed. It's very hard to support a business that you never know if they are going to be open.

Delicious food. Loved the jerk chicken and brown stew chicken. Their rice and peas were delicious, too. Generous portions as well. We had three meals from each order. Can't recommend this place enough.

Generous portions of oxtail and curry goat with plenty rice and vegetables. Authentic Jamaican seasoning very much worth regular visits!

Being an original New Yorker with island roots. This is how Caribbean food should taste. Best Oxtails in Pittsburgh. Respect to the chef. It’s always Irie even a day later!

I got the jerk chicken w rice & beans & cabbage. I also got a veggie patty. My friend got the macaroni salad. All the food was very good. Reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that I was not a fan of how the cooked, whole, bone-in pieces of chicken was cut into smaller pieces so it was super sloppy and I had to pick at all the chicken. I'd rather have 1 or 2 whole pieces of chicken. Other than that, everything was awesome! I will definitely be back and I will try some other meat. I will also get the macaroni salad because that was soooooo good. My favorite thing actually. Was sweet a little. The flavor of the cabbage was awesome too.

Delicious Jamaican food!

Jerk chicken, cabbage, rice & beans, and a side of macaroni salad. (Macaroni salad is slightly sweet. Sooo good)

Big portions!

Will be back soon!
