The Oxtail and the Brown Stew Chicken are the two non-spicy items on the menu. The Stew has a nice stew flavor.
The Jerk Chicken and Curry Chicken and Shrimp are as good as you’ll find. The Red Snapper grilled takes 20 minutes and worth the wait. You have to ask for them to serve it with no head, as it is the whole snapper. The grilled snapper is amazing. The spicy flavors are close to jerk but not exactly. With one bite I heard angels singing. Get the grilled snapper.
