Thoroughly impressed with my entire experience. Delicious authentic Caribbean food bursting with flavour. The dishes were well balanced with the accompaniments correlating beautifully. The staff was Friendly, polite and attentive . The presentation was amazing!!

Fantastic food. It's really spicy, so you must like it. The kingfish was just too spicy (8 green chillies) but I guess it's subjective. The lamb chops were divine. I am a fun of tasty sauces. I had a great time. Service is very amateur, though. We had to keep calling for the server attention and got a few orders wrong. When the plates arrived, the starters one were still on the table so it was a bit of a mishap. Overall nice atmosphere.

The food here is absolutely delicious. I had the smoked baigan starter and ital roti main, both incredible, and I tried my friends' dishes too. My side of plantain was forgotten but I forgot about it too while eating because I was so engrossed with the food so I didn't mind. There's a really great vibe here, I'll definitely be back.

Easily the best Caribbean food we've ever had. Service was great, food was fresh and tasted amazing. This is definitely a hidden gem, very clean restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. Will visit again and they should open more branches.

A terrific find in Oxford. Authentic Caribbean food, great vibes, good service and the flavors of the dishes were off the chart. We started with a smoked aubergine and tomato dip with flat bread. It was very good, and just the right tough on spiciness. For our mains we had king prawns with curried potatoes and chickpeas with a roti. This was a great dish but the star was the jerk chicken. Wow! A fantastic dish. If you are in Oxford, make a visit.

An absolute gem of a restaurant in Oxford, the most authentic Caribbean food I have had. Fresh and good quality ingredients, lovely cocktails, great vibes. You can’t get better value for money than here, it’s so worth the visit for all of this but on top of that the service is 5 star, our waiter was Canveer and he was brilliant - I look forward to our next trip here.

One of my favourite restaurants in Oxford. The food is absolutely amazing for very reasonably prices, and they have some great vegan options (but meat I hear is also great, particularly the jerk chicken). Great combinations of flavours. I love the trini doubles, the festivals and the jerk tempeh (although tempeh portion is a bit small). If you're feeling indulgent, should also definitely get the rum cake!

One of the most delicious restaurants I've ever eaten in the whole UK. Yes, that much tasty! We've been talking about it non-stop since the day we ate there. Big portions, tasty food - melting in your mouth. Nice small restaurant, friendly staff. Not overrated prices. Perfect.

Really tasty food, cooked to perfection, and with the perfect amount of spice.
However, the portions are quite small, especially compared to the price. The service was fairly minimal as well.
