My new regular lunch place. Food is good and reasonably priced. Always go for a dumpling and extra roast potatoes

This place has taken the spot for worse customer service in Reading. 3 people in kitchen 1 is busy the other 2 made eye contact and ignored me. Was the only one waiting to be serviced place was empty it is a joke. Waited 6 mins and walked

I came In around half 6, so roughly half an hour before closing time. I initially wanted to order the Jerk chicken with rice and pea and a fried dumpling. Upon ordering I was made aware that they had run out of the Jerk aswell as the dumplings aswell as a few other things. It was only half an hour before closing so I understood and half expected this to be the case, as I know the jerk is popular. I ended up ordering the fried chicken with a side of rice and pea. The service was speedy and the staff very polite, even offering to wrap the food up (as I was catching the train) The price was maybe a little steep (£10.50) although the portion was generous so i suppose it makes up for it. The chicken was very flavourful and cooked perfectly although had little to no crisp to it. I suspect this was because I had ordered close to closing time so they were no longer frying new batches and I’d probably just caught one that had been sitting a while (I expect this is not the case when ordering throughout the day). That being said I would still give the fried chicken a 8.3/10 it was delicious. Next was the rice and pea. It tasted pretty authentic and was well seasoned (the cabbage on the side is a nice touch) and it all tasted like it was made with love. If I had one critique it would be the rice and pea was just a tiny bit too moist . Don’t be mistaken no one wants dry rice but if I’m nitpicking it was just a tiny tiny bit too wet, it’s a 8.8/10 for me. I’ll definitely be returning next time I’m in reading to try the Jerk aswell as the Mac and cheese and dumplings. I highly recommend!

The jerk chicken is very good, well worth buying. You get a lot of food even with a small too, great value, good food, what else can you want?

Hands down the best restaurant in reading - the patties are cheap and filling, and the curried mutton is just amazing. Helpful staff, lovely atmosphere - I’ll be back for sureHomemade goodness is a thing of beauty.

The food we had was excellent, and the owner friendly and polite. The only problem was what we wanted wasn't available, in fact most of the menu had run out, even though there was still 3 hours until closure. This is the stereotypical view of a West Indian restaurant come true. I will go back when next in Reading but probably need to go earlier.

This is the only restaurant that answered the phone when I called to see what was available. I went in and saw that it was a typical West Indian take away. The food was great I would go back there whenever I am in Reading. I had a bottle of Irish moss, beef patty, jerk chicken with rice and peas and a fry fish because I was hungry and the food looked good.. I was pretty glad that I went here because it was traditional “yard food” just like grandma used to make plus the prices were reasonable.
