    We waited more than 20 mins before our server got our first order.. but the food came all quick and all at the same time we don’t have room on our table for all the food we ordered.. the food quality is ok I don’t have to drive all the way to Walnut Creek for Caribbean food

    So nice to have a good Caribbean food option in the Bay Area. Great place to enjoy family style in order to sample the most amount of items. Loved the drinks and loved the service.

    Outstanding food. Each of the three of us got something different, and we all loved our dishes. It's a great, casual spot with a nice atmospher. Great place to go if you like Carribbean flavors.

    Our server, Steve, seemed a little lost. Although he gave us excellent recomendations, he didn't seem to be able to tell us apart at the table (perhpas 4 women "of a certain age" all look the same to him). He also didn't seem to know when to bring menus, take the order, bring the checks, etc. But he was kind enough to give the four of us separate checks. We went for happy hour and the menu was not extenisve but large enough to have plenty of selections. I had the curry chicken empanada (meh) and the callaloo (vegetarian) empanada (really tasty and spicy) and the plantains (delicious). Prices were reaonable (empanadas $5 a piece, plantinas $4) but portions were a bit small.
