Traditional Jamaican

Reviewer: HippieSrirachaGirl

Light, Simple, Fresh-delectable food...My advice…drive slowly down Washington Blvd because I have passed this restaurant a number of times. It wasn’t until I did some research on other Caribbean restaurants and the name of this restaurant caught my attention. I tend to draw towards Caribbean restaurants because I enjoy a lil spice in my life! This restaurant has been in Central L.A. for over 35 years. Their dishes represent authentic Jamaican herbs and spices. The owners of this restaurant make their own fresh fruit juices and some are made with vegetables. This restaurant keeps their flavors traditional, thus bringing Jamaica to Central L.A.

From the menu, I ordered Curry Goat and I’m a big fan of curry! This dish was served with small pieces of fresh goat meat marinated in a special blend of Jamaican curry herbs & spices with a side of rice & beans and plantains. The Beet Root & Carrot drink was made fresh with a touch of carrot juice, lemon juice, ginger, spices & honey. I cleaned my entire plate and savoured every moment of the Beet Root & Carrot drink because it was perfectly balanced in flavor. My aunt ordered the Jerk Chicken Salad, the chicken was moist and tender. The spice level of the meat was perfect the crunch from the fresh levels balanced out the jerk chicken. For her drink she ordered the Pine-Ginger Juice, which had pineapple, ginger and honey!

From the warmth of the owner, the traditional Jamaican spices in the curry and to the fresh Beet Root & Carrot juice, I was a happy customer. 35 years in Central L.A. and this restaurant proudly represents Jamaica.
