So happy this place is right near the naval base. The food is delicious. I get the Oxtail Dinner and it's really yummy. The meat is so tender and flavorful, and the rice is absolutely wonderful! They also have baked macaroni which is so good! 10/10 would reccommend

Oxtail dinner. Each star is for each item on the menu. 1 star for the cabbage veggies, great flavor and cooked perfectly. I can't wrap my head around this plate. When I opened my plate it looked like the beef had been sitting out and the sauce dried up, the meat was crusted and stale. No flavor at all. The rice said seasoned but also it had no flavor and absorbed the sauce from the oxtail, again, like it had been sitting on their counter for a while. Mind you when i placed my order I was in their parking lot already and went in according to the time my food would be ready which was about 8-10 minutes. Platain was a platain. Nothing special about it. I also ordered a patty. The edges were hard to chew and almost had to pull away roughly to bite through them. And the size, I wouldnt be complaining had the patty been like 3 bucks and it was so skinny lol it's laughable. Such a le down. I was really looking forward go enjoying my meal.
