    Sweet Jesus! This place was soooooo good. We stumbled on here actually when where we were planning to go was close. From the entrance, the hostess was friendly and kind. We were quickly seated and almost immediately greeted by our waiter. The food was phenomenal! My husband and I are both from the islands and have come to expect subpar jerk food at best however this place outdid themselves. Literally our new favorite spot in Deep Ellum. The drinks were phenomenal and the service even better. To top everything off, there are some cute backdrops in different parts of the restaurant that make it Instagram worthy. 10/10

    I was able to pre celebrate my birthday. The area was very nice, ambience was great. Loved the playlist while everyone and Jame and eat while still having class. Food was surprisingly great although not hot as I would like but no major complaints. Drinks were great as well. Our waiter was excellent and even surprised me with a birthday dessert and sparklers which I was not expecting. I will return back for sure. I initially was scheduled to have my dinner on that Saturday but was cancelled with no notice so I did have to call and find out why which the young lady was able to tell me that someone had booked the entire restaurant. It would have been nice if the reason could have been included or a posting on one of the social media accounts … and then perhaps some type of accommodation or free item for the inconvenience.

    We had a great dinner here on Saturday. We were sat at the bar and Octavius the bartender took care of us. He was so personable and funny and made our dinner a blast. I got the club and my spouse had the burger, both were so delicious. We loved our evening here.
