    Had the chicken curry, which can with plantains, ride and beans, and cabbage. Tasted home made and delicious!

    I planned a going away family gathering and asked Island Jerk to prepare cabbage for a family of 12.  The lady at the counter said that will take some time, I informed her that I was not in a hurry.  She asked me to call her back later.  I called her around 7:00 pm (I knew they closed at 9:00 pm).  When I called her back, she again said what time did I need it, I again stated that I was in no hurry, I actually wasn't serving it until tomorrow (Sunday).  She says oh, ok, what time do you want it on Sunday.  I told her I didn't know they were open on Sunday, she said sure.  I told her I would pick it up at 2:00 pm Sunday.  I asked her how much was the order, she said she needed to figure the cost and would call me back on the number that showed up on her caller IID.

    I felt just a little uneasy, but after checking the web hours it said Island Jerk was open Sunday 2-8pm on Sunday, so I relaxed.

    I called several times on Sunday right at 2:00pm and got no answer.  I decided maybe they were busy and decided to go pick up my order around 2:15pm.  THEY WERE CLOSED.  I was beyond disappointed, I had 12 guests showing up at my house at 4:00 pm and I was put in this awful position.    

    I can not understand why a restaurant would take your order, tell you they plan to prepare your order, arrange a pickup date and time for your order, but NOT fulfill the order with every intention on being CLOSED.

    I have heard good things about the food, but I will never know.  You don't get a 2nd chance to make a 1st impression.

    Oxtail here was really great and more than plenty when ordering the large.  I loved the cabbage and rice.  Oxtail was seasoned perfectly and I like that they gave me extra gravy on mine.  Tasty and filling.  Location is in a strip mall and easy to get in/out.  Lady behind the counter was super friendly and made me feel welcome.  I will be back when I'm the area.

    Love it! Great flavors and the rice is amazing. I had the curry and the flavor was rich and creamy.

    I try to hit this place at least once a month.  Am a curry goat fan. I always get the large and try not to eat it all so I can have the rest for lunch the next day. The rice the cabbage and the plantains are sublime. Always look forward to picking up my meal.
