Most Disliked
While the grill often receives positive reviews, a few diners have reported that during peak times, there can be a slight wait for food. Although the dishes are worth it, it’s something to keep in mind, especially on busy Fridays. Some customers feel that while portion sizes are generous, the pricing might be a tad higher than expected for certain items. A few patrons note that the crowd during dinner can be overwhelming and might detract from the otherwise inviting atmosphere. Occasionally, there may be challenges with the availability of specific dishes, leading to disappointment for those who had their heart set on a particular menu item. However, these minor inconveniences do not generally overshadow the overall experience.

They have two locations and if you love bold, flavorful food, this place is a must visit! Every dish was packed with seasoning and layered spices that really stood out without being overwhelming. You can tell the chefs put real care into balancing flavors nothing bland on the menu. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys food with personality and taste that pops!

Food and customer service were great. They even had free hot chocolate in the lobby while you wait on your food. I ordered the jerk chicken fried rice and the Alfredo and the servings were huge we’re going to be eating off these plates all day if not tomorrow. Also the pieces are very reasonable for how much food we were given. I put yum yum on my rice and 10/10

Omg this place is a must visit Spot. My 1st time visiting with family. It will not be my last. Everything is cooked fresh to order. Small seating area. No public restrooms tho. Great customer service. We were welcomed in with a smile & everything was great. Try it for yourself you won’t be disappointed. The fried rice bowl I had with broccoli, salmon, chicken, & shrimp absolutely delicious. The fried Turkey Wing was some kind of phenomenal. The ginger ale & sherbet drink was great & refreshing. Try it for yourself you won’t be disappointed. Your girl Sunshine From Let’s Do It Crew Tours
