I tried the never before heard of jerk pork patty flavor explosion link up which put a big smile on my face. The new form required eating with a knife & fork due to the amount of pork & vegetables stuffed into the patty but in true Jamaican style, I ate it like a boss with my hands & ignored the bits falling back down to the plate in the moment. I won't lie, the main jerk chicken meal did have what takes to be declared authentic Jamaican food. I will definitely go again. My only strife was the lack of a varied beverage options.
I've been here twice & the food is full of flavour. It's a fusion of bajan & Jamaican cuisine. The staff is very friendly, the atmosphere of the restaurant is vibrant & unique. If you want to satisfy your cravings, the oxtail & jerk chicken are really good. The pepper sauce is spicy & delicious!
Honestly pretty good. The jamaican patties were definitely a bit too dry in my opinion & they didn't have any oxtail on the menu which I really wanted to try but the pork jerk was good as well as the beans & rice & plantin !
4.7⭐️ I absolument love this place. Jamaican patties are okay but I save my appetite for the plates. Best Jerk chicken I've ever encountered. Spiced right & cooked to perfection. I tend to order an extra side of chicken. The oxtail is amazing. Most places will have little lean meat & mostly fatty & bone but not Lloydies! Don't forget to mix your slaw in w/ the lentil rice. Portions per serving are quite generous. The restaurant is very clean & orderly. Highly recommend treating yourself to this eatery.
As a Jamaican myself it's hard to find real authentic food that feels like home & especially when it comes to oxtail. I can confidently say the oxtail is 9.5/10 I would give it a 10 If there was a little more meat but honestly its not that deep but the food is 10/10 ,the vibe is 10/10 & service 10/10. The food a GWAN STILL !
