The food and taste was not to my liking.Am from the Caribbean so we prepare our foods alot different, i also like my meat medium well and the meat was well done so they were chewy to me and texture slightly hard/tough. Before i left the place i used the bathroom twice it could have been the mixed rice with stuff in it or black beans...i had to stop again before i get to the hotel...Not for me.

A two minute grace period before being removed from the list is unacceptable especially because of the location of the restaurant inside a gigantic mall. Food and service overall was ok.
