"Hmmmm,, really really nice area with positive vibes all night long. I loved the way the restaurant was presented and loved the warm Caribbean theme. I arrived just after sunset and we booked the seats outside.. The breeze the music the lights.. Was just too much! (That side was amazing nd quiet the experience) now, however, I didn 't like the food. Like, it weren 't intense? Do I make sense? I mean Caribbean,, when I think Caribbean I expect Caribbean.. The vibes yes they delivered but as for food and quality it was mediocre. Poor waiters I felt they were tortured by the customers they weren 't as confident and didn 't know the menu that well.. But they were still friendly and funny. I ordered the shrimp and mango pot. It was so cute how the actual dish was in a pot it had a cute Caribbean vibe to the look and smell of the dish but for the actual tasting ,, I just didn 't feel it? It was bland. I didn 't even taste the mango and I 'm a BIGGG fan of mango so that was quiet disappointing meh. BAHT overall,, I 'd definitely go back and visit but this time I 'd order something different and actually instruct them to emphasis on a certain ingredient lol I 'd purely go back just 'cause of the vibes and not the food."

I'd go back there if there's nothing else around, but not necessarily serious about it.

A large restaurant with a vibrant and lively atmosphere serving delicious food and attractive cocktails. The service from Lucy and her colleague was warm and friendly.

Delicious food, great happy hour drinks, great vibe, great music. Service could be slightly more prompt, the waitresses seemed a little inexperienced albeit apologetic.

Great service getting quite popular (took a while to book a reservation, but just shows how good it is)! The food portions were huge especially for the price you pay (cheap as chips) the rums were quite good for aged rums. Piña colada was stronger then I'm used to!

Great for a chain. My experience with Caribbean food is limited, so I don't know how it compares with others. We were impressed by the number of dinner options (5 nets and some pages). The breakfast menu had 3 vegan options. The food was tasteful and spicy. We had the sweet squirrel Roti Roll and the Ruck Tofu with coconut rice. The wrap was our favorite, I'd just go back for it.

Last week I treated my friend to a meal at this restaurant. It was absolutely fabulous! My friend and I had 3 delicious Cocktails. My friend had a vegan dish which she said was fantastic as was mine of ribs with the best rice and peas I have ever tasted. We finshed the meal with delicous coffee and banana cheescake. The staff were lovely and the service was great and to top it off it was very good value for money. I would highly recommend you vist this restaurant. I will definitely be going again.

Great place to have a meal. Heard of it for the first time 2 weeks ago and visited today. I enjoyed my meal of crispy chicken with coconut rice and beans. I also liked the 2 for 1 happy drinks. The waiters were nice. I loved the ambience. The restaurant is located in the town centre at the traffic lights so no free parking nearby. Great for public transport but if you are driving, there is no free parking but there is paid parking like 4 minutes away in the mall. Didn't use the toilet so I can't comment buy good restaurant overall.

Came here for my birthday for a bottomless brunch. Absolutely loved it. The customer service was perfect. Normally, people are hesitant to be around when bringing bottomless drinks or it’s hard to grab someone’s attention. Having worked in hospitality myself, I know they put a lot of effort in which is highly appreciated. Made my day. Had about 10 cocktails each and left perfectly tipsy. The food was pretty decent as well. Don’t have expectations that it’s coming from a Jamaican grandmothers kitchen but more that the flavours are subtle to fit everyone’s tastebuds. Will definitely be back again soon.

I enjoyed my visit. The staff are really friendly and tentative. I like turtle bay more so for their cocktails. The food is ok but I wouldn’t say it’s because of its authentic taste. I ordered curried goat and it tasted like curried goat but just not in a Caribbean way at all. I also ordered Mac and cheese bites which were YUMMY ! I love friend Mac and cheese balls so they were always going to get brownie points for that, the sauce they added was also a nice touch. Good plantain portion and of course plantain being plantain … it was nice and sweet. The only thing I would say is that it was warm and not piping hot when it came to the table… everyone one knows you have to serve plantain hot ho...
