So I went ahead and made reservations but when we got the restaurant, no one was at the door to seat us. So we seated ourselves. Which was kind of annoying. Why bother!!!

Food was very good. The drinks were excellent as well. The outdoor space was great, nice aesthetic with the picnic tables. Service was good - our server checked in with us frequently but we didn't have enough flatware and she forgot to bring a drink order.

The food was really good and the servers were tentative. The ambiance was decent. I would recommend if you like Trini flavored foods.

Cool, buzzy place. Food was good, not amazing. Wasn't a fan of the shark bake but thought the ribs and roti were good. Cocktails were good. Service was friendly although we were handed the check before being offered coffee or desert or most importantly another drink! Felt like we were rushed out even though we were only there an hour.

Great brunch - staff were really helpful as we had an additional person which we managed to squeeze in. Fun vibe and really flavorful food, and simple menu! Would definitely recommend, great with a group or smaller as you can get cosy and have a good old catch up.
