Buck crabs and BYOB!
Need I say more?
I’ve already been back 2 times during NBA playoffs.
The crabs were juicy, savory and steamed to perfection.
There is always food and drink specials.
I’ve so far tried the buffalo wings and jerk wings. the jerk is not for the faint of heart.
If you are looking for a nice spot with good service, nice location and great food; come here. :)

I would go back if friends are looking for a novelty caribbean dining experience. The veggie platter, and stew oxtail were worthwhile.
–first, the wait staff and owner are very laid back and welcoming
–ambiance is nice with seating upstairs too; reggae beats fill the air.
–the water had a hint of soda on it, the last time I went-​no biggie and the owner changed it upon request
–I’ve gotten stew oxtail twice and both times were excellent – the sauce had a hint of something herbal (?) and the oxtail meat was fresh, juicy and plentiful. I have been to Jamaica and would say it’s pretty authentic-​tasting.
–veggie platter: my friend got this and the spinach and tomato and zucchini mix that made up half of the plate was delicious and cooked perfectly (as in, the spinach was soft but still bright green).
–we had a side of spinach as well as Mac and cheese, plantains, and cabbage. But my oxtail came with cabbage already and the spinach was similar to the veggie platter (minus the other veggies).
So why a three? It’s subject to change, and some of it’s my personal preference, so take that into account. They really are pretty good and I would say, go give them a try and see what you think :)

I had the wings, and they were as good as they looked.
