Exceptional experience in every way. Service was impeccable and all the food was amazing, top quality ingredients and wonderful flavors. Your wine list needs substantial improvement. The bottles are far too expensive. Please start offering wines of a lesser price. In addition to the expensive wines you guys are marking them up extensively, 4X.

We loved every dish we ordered! The service here was also top notch. If you order the jerk chicken, definitely try it with the red sauce served with it. And the pepper rice is the most flavorful rice I've ever had.

First time: Made reservations about two months in advance— the place was packed! Everyone was either celebrating something or spending time with loved ones. A great atmosphere! The food was outstanding, a great selection of wines and liquors at the bar. Service was faster than expected, especially considering how busy the place was. Reasonable prices all-around and excellent experience from the staff and the atmosphere.
