Reading other reviews, I must have gone on an off day. We got oxtail, chicken roti & patties. Oxtail had two small hunks of meat & the rest was just fat. The gravy felt like it had just been sitting for a week. Pure salt. Rice felt microwaved. We plopped down over 50$ & ate like 6 bites. I'd like to give it a higher rating but we couldn't eat it. Even the patties seemed like I could buy them frozen & cook them better. Maybe it's seen better days?

Had their goat roti & oxtail with rice & peas meals. I'm Caribbean. This food might look ok but it is NOT what traditional goat roti & oxtails with rice & peas taste like. Period. 1. When cooked, oxtails should not be red in color. Seems as if you used a tomato based recipe. & it tasted nothing like traditional Jamaican oxtails meal. 2. Goat roti… where's the curry taste!?!? I'm sorry but I will never eat from here again.

Oxtails used to be so good, I could say they were the best in town, but now they've lost their magic sauce. They haven't tasted the same for almost two years. I don't like them now, & it makes me sad...Also meat isnt well done there more fat & undercooked parts than the well-simmered meat it used to be :(

Atrocious food & service. The guy somehow thought I ordered "five fish" (I ordered fried fish), & got angry at me when he realized his mistake. Then an Ubereats worker came to pick up an order, & the same guy started yelling at him to "learn English". The food (oxtail plate & fried fish) was 90% bones. I also ordered some beef patties that another guy handled sloppily with his bare hands. I wish I'd just walked out & left my order on the counter.

Underwhelming experience We felt cheated on in the portions, among our large order, We asked for large oxtail platters in which to our surprise looks like the regular size. Two out if those platters had also barely any oxtail in it mainly potato & carrot. The pineapple chicken portions were good. The food taste wise was fine. Just wont be ordering back here for oxtail. Portion & taste wise for that Id rather go elsewhere. We also purchased beef patties, in which we enjoyed far more than the oxtail.

Très bon ! J'ai pris l'oxtail & c'était vraiment fondant, avec beaucoup de goût. Un régal !

La nourriture était bonne. Je suis moi-même antillais & je m’attendais à davantage de piquant dans leur Jerk chicken & dans le oxtail.

Je ne suis pas trop fan de leur riz mais j’adore leurs pâtes jamaïcains & la possibilité d’acheter des boites de pâtes congelés.

I have to change my glowing review from three years ago. I don't know what happened but this is NOT the Boom J's I have been ordering since it opened. Crunchy rice, tough beef, different sauce, all add up to disappointment. Wife ordered oxtail & got 2 pieces of meat. Prices went up plus it's no longer tax included which drives the price up another 15%. The price goes up & the quality goes down. The hallmark of a business that stopped caring for it's loyal long time customers. Maybe opening a second location wasn't the best idea? I am changing my 5 star review to a 2 star review. C'mon Jermaine! Step it up man!
