Konoko Jamaican Restaurant

"I hate that I have to give this place 4 stars. BUT had a reservation, had to wait 25 minutes before being seated. The wait could of been longer if we had waited for the area that I made the reservation for. Once we were seated, things turned around for the better. Sean was our waiter, and he was amazing! Great personality. His section was busy but he still kept a great attitude and was very attentive to us during the entire experience. The drinks were strong like we like them. Got Salomon bites and they melted in my mouth. We had the lamb chops they were tinder and the flavor was amazing. Also the seafood pasta and it was good."

"First visit I was very excited to go. I met a friend and because of all the reservation stipulations I chose the dining side.. I arrived early and could tell there was a big difference in the two sides. Bar side was very festive and colorful looked like high tables. It was very crowded so I could not really see much. The dining side was very plain not formal. Simply wooden booths and tables, however I was still glad to be there. But it was not the vibe I expected. The hostess was really sweet and when my guest arrived we were seated they are really sticklers about that. Ceiling fans were cute but no real Caribbean flair for me. Our server was a guy he was awesome attentive knowledgeable and super pleasant. Apps were limited so we did not get anything. I ordered the white meat jerk chicken with peas and rice and a salad I added Mac and cheese callalou greens I think they were called, and my friend ordered the Salmon. We both had wine. My meal was okay the peas and rice were really good so was the salad and Mac n cheese, the chicken was okay it was more hot than spicy decent portion, nothing extra as far as tenderness. I started the greens and immediately there was like a little pebble. I immediately told the waiter and he was very apologetic immediately the General Manager came out and apologized and offered a replacement I did not want anything else. I did not like the flavor of the greens what I did taste that was my fault they were Caribbean greens not collards, the waiter explained that to me. My friend loved her Salmon. She also ordered the raspberry cheesecake. I eat out very often, I tasted the cheesecake it was a 6 out of 10. I would say it was not prepared fresh at the restaurant but I could be wrong I would go back for maybe wings and drinks but definitely sit on the other side. The overall experience because of the server and hostess improved my review."

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Konoko and it was an exquisite experience from start to finish. I kicked off the evening with the Koko Chanel cocktail, a delightful concoction that really hit my taste buds. The culinary journey continued with the salmon bites, and I was immediately impressed by the burst of flavors in each bite. The perfect balance of seasoning made it a standout dish. The main course featured jerk lamb chops accompanied by rice and beans and cabbage, was nothing short of a feast for the senses. The lamb chops were succulent and packed with a tantalizing jerk spice, while the sides were expertly crafted, each complementing the other seamlessly. The attentive service and cozy ambiance added to the overall charm of the evening. Shouts to Kelsey who was our serve for the evening. She was nothing short of amazing!! The dining experience was quite memorable. I'll be anticipating my next visit to savor more of their culinary delights."

"The experience was amazing. Inside and outside dining available. It's in a shopping center so plenty of parking. Easy to get to location. In-flight Caribbean theme. The servers call themselves flight attendants and use flight related terms. I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. I would definitely recommend this to any and everyone. I am planning to come back and try this place again before it gets to cold outside."

"Made a reservation for 0730. The restaurant was packed and we were able to be seated as we entered…. That was definitely top tier. Ordered salmon bites and coconut shrimp for starters. Tasty quick and great starters. Then our server, Shay gave recommendations on drinks. I completely enjoyed my yellow drink but forgot the name. My date had a bob marley and enjoyed that as well. We both did curry shrimp for our main course with an order of plantain. Portions were perfect, taste as authentic enough and also suitable for a palate not used to Caribbean food. Gratuity was included. And my server Shay said if she could she would have given me a senior discount. We suggested to her that they do a senior discount and seasonal menu changes. No complaints wonderful service!!! And very nice atmosphere!"
