"5 Stars for the wings and shrimp - battered and sauce was flavorful. These were perfect. Now, they're going to have to revamp the oxtail rasta pasta recipe because it doesn't even look good and didn't taste its price tag. Oxtail empanada was okay.. a bit hyped up for what it is. It could have been regular shredded beef in there and I wouldn't taste the difference. We went on a Sunday where it wasn't especially lit, but we enjoyed the music and made the best of it. The hookah was hittin so that's always a plus"

"The food was okay. I’m from NY so I wasn’t too impressed. Also my stew chicken came out cold. I asked them to reheat it and it still came back luke warm, not hot. My rice was not good. It was very dry like it had been sitting on the bottom of the tray on the steam table. I also ordered cabbage as my side for my main course and was given carrots and broccoli. Once I addressed it with the waitress she informed me that that was cabbage they were serving today. Ummm ok. My group and I asked for 4 other items that were on the menu but “don’t have that today”. The waitress could of informed us prior to us ordering. But since her gratuity was included, she did the bare minimum as a waitress. We were the ones tracking her down but she was too busy kee keeing with the others waiters. The DJ was good so we’re the drinks."

"Vibey Jamaican restaurant in Downtown Bridgeport, CT. I went on a Saturday night for dinner. However, they had our reservation mixed up. They have Hookah available in the back area & a live DJ. The music was on trend but overly loud making it hard to hold any conversation. The food was ok and flavorful but the limited menu options & MP prices made it hard to order, especially since the restaurant didn’t have many of the options available. The waitress didn’t tell us there was an up charge on the weekend nor it is advertised so that was a bit misleading when the we got the bill. For the portions, I also feel the menu is pricey. The drink was good but not very strong. Overall, it was just ok."

"The food and drinks were amazing. The best Mac and cheese in CT. Jerk chicken and oxtail were absolutely delicious. Cocktails were also fantastic. For honesty they do have a DJ so this is not the place for a quiet dinner. But the music definitely enhanced the atmosphere for a much needed Friday night of relaxation. Think of a club but with great food and no dancing....BUT there is a swing!!!"

"Randomly stopped here one Friday afternoon around 6:00pm before going to a concert at the arena downtown. I didn’t read the reviews before coming here and I may not have come if I did. We didn’t make a reservation but were seated immediately by a very lovely young lady. First of all, there is a bouncer at the door with a metal detector wand and he pats you down and checks bags. Now I don’t know what has happened at this place before that warranted a bouncer, but it’s an indication of the type of establishment it is. There is a DJ and the music was absolutely fire, but so loud! It’s a sit down restaurant, not a club! My husband sat across from me at a small table and we could barely hear what each other was saying and we had to yell. All of that mess aside, the food and drinks were unbelievably good! We were so hungry and crunched for time that we just scarfed everything down! The drinks were super strong but very good. We actually waited for our meals before we continued drinking, and that took quite a while. I wouldn’t return to this place for dine-in even if I lived in CT. I’m not sure why a service charge is added to the receipt, maybe the DJ? I wonder if the service charge is added for delivery or take out orders? All in all, the food and drinks were amazing but the whole ambiance of the place leaves much to be desired."
