Nice jerk tofu dish

Chill place and a little lazy but very friendly staff haha. I think they have 1 or 2 vegan options, not a lot. The jerk tofu dish I had was really nice and tasty. Lots of tofu!😄

Limited options but lots of tofu!

We actually found this place because the owner helped us out with the dodgy petrol ‘vending machine’ just over the road from the restaurant. He mentioned that they had vegan food so we went back the following night for dinner.

Turns out there weren’t so many vegan options to choose between, but the menu was small in general. The only dish available that evening was the jerk tofu, which came with a kidney bean rice mix and coleslaw. The flavours were nice and they were generous with the amount of tofu. We did find the dish a little dry, although dousing it with the chilli sauce provided on the table did the trick.

Pros: Generous portion size 🫄

Cons: Not many vegan options ❎

Neutral meal

I can't really review the food in an authentic way since I've never had a Jamaican meal before. They offer a tofu meal but when I was there they told me the tofu went bad so I went for the corn menu. The corn had a red sauce on it which was kind of tasteless so I used lots of salt which made it way better. The coleslaw was not really a coleslaw, more a normal side salad what I didn't mind. It was actually my highlight, probably the most flavored food on my plate. I didn't like the rice at all, it tasted different than the rice we know from Thai food. I don't know how to describe it but it tasted kind of odd. My boyfriend loved the rice though, he even claims it to be the best rice he has eaten on this trip.
I would only come again if they offer more vegan options or they have the tofu avaible.

Good vegan food, wish they had more options

Hosted a special vegan meetup and we had 4 options to choose from. The food is quite tasty. I just wish they had more options and bigger portions.

Pros: Tasty, Affordable, Passionate owner

Cons: Small portions, Only 2-3 vegan options , Bar nearby so you can smell weed and drinks
