On a whim, my brothers and I decided to stop and finally try Shenel’s kitchen. Where we were brought in by the atmosphere of the welcoming music and friendly staff. Shenel herself served us recommending we dine in for the full experience. She even served us an off the menu pasta that was amazing! Between the three us, we tried the curry goat, jerk chicken, pasta, veggies and rice and peas. Everything was a 10/10 highly recommend! The jerk chick wings were the perfect combination of spicy, saucy, sweet and smoky. The best authentic Jamaican food in PK! Definitely a hidden gem!!

being from the Bronx, I was originally intimidated walking in, hoping not to see mean employees with attitude lol This is literally the first Jamaican restaurant I’ve ever been to that has really kind employees, amazing atmosphere and food. I believe it was the owner that immediately greeted me as I walked in, and she was extremely sweet, even smiled at me. Let me try some other side of dishes and then help put together a great plate for me 10 out of 10 love this place and will definitely be back!!

First time trying this new restaurant and I was highly satisfied. I had the BBQ Chicken with Rice & Peas, was very flavorful but a bit spicier than I expected for BBQ. I also had the Roti with Curry Goat which tasted spectacular. I enjoyed every last bite. If you’re ever in town and looking for something new to try, here it is!
