Caribbean-Kenyan fusion done right with jerk chicken that has proper spice and flavor. The grill items are solid, the portions are generous, and the vibe is upbeat without being loud.

Previously dined at their old location at GW Brook business park so wanted to visit again. New location hard to find along Kiambu road. No signage. Aborted mission.

Great service. The food was good. My party ordered: Oxtails, Rasta Pasta, Curried Goat, Jerk Chicken and Beef Soup (Bone Soup). Everything was good. Thanks, Katherine and team!!!

Food is good, but why is the portion of chicken so tiny? It’s not a Jamaican restaurant in America. Even the Jamaican restaurants in America give you bigger portions of chicken. We are In Africa chicken is cheap to buy for crying out loud. And they also didn’t follow my instructions for my food.

Nice and chilled reggae atmosphere. Waiter was extremely helpful. The grilled fish with plantain was really good. The ox tail was a bit bitter. Spicy BBQ wings were nice as well. I’d recommend eating here. It has a really nice unpretentious vibe.

A nice hidden gem in Westlands. It's a small restaurant serving Jamaican food in Nairobi. First and foremost they have a good happy hour from 5-7pm, so i recommend trying their Carribbean themed cocktails. The oxtail is my favourite meal on their menu. They serve it with coconut bean rice that really compliments the meal well. The place is also affordable and food is very filling N/B The toilets at the shopping center aren't sanitary since it's shared by many
