    Nothing but amazing things to say about this place from the second i walked into the door. My girlfriend and i had reservations for 730 we showed up 30 mins early and got sat right away. Our server irene was extremely pleasant and welcoming. We told her it was our 1st time and she shared some history of the place with us. Lauren the owner and every other staff member checked on us nonstop to make sure we had everything we needed. We were in and out in an hour but somehow didn't feel rushed at all. I dont think i have one single complaint about this place. Food was AMAZING. We will be back for the igloos snd the carolers

    Dunns River is always an amazing place to eat, celebrate or just hang out at. Food is great and the place is very nice. On some nights there is a DJ and Live Music from a great band. Recently I ordered catering to go for the holidays and it didn't disappoint. This is definitely a must visit, although NYC is blessed to have many great Caribbean, Jamaican restaurants, this one is special and separates itself from the pack.
