Safi First time trying this place. I had a wonderful experience here! The food was absolutely delicious, seasoned perfectly and full of flavor. So if you can’t handle spice / flavor do not try it and complain! Everything came out fresh and hot, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Generous portion for the cost it was well worth it. I’ll definitely be coming back. Happy to have an authentic Jamaican restaurant in the neighborhood.

Christy Jo Henson I used to swear I would not eat here bc of the name. Then one day, my bf insisted I try a bite of his cold whole catfish. I dont even like whole catfish all that much. That is, until that day! Man! I wanted more! It took me a minute to get over the name of the restaurant but when I did, I went and got some whole catfish (fresh and hot this time) for me and my Mama and we tore it up! Their chicken wings are the best ive ever eaten and the fried mushrooms are so so good. They just dont have any Ranch Dressing which is weird. Oh, the coleslaw is good but the portion size is a freakin joke! The cakes look delicious and they probably are when theyre first made. I think mine had sat there too long bc it was dry but ill try it again. The restaurant in general though, best fried food around! They just need to sell some collard greens to mop all that unhealthy fried food out. Love this place though.

Willetta M My pico was perhaps old ? Tomatoes appeared translucent. So I asked for some tomatoes. Both of these items were in a small souffle cup - cost a dollar ea. Not too impressive They got the tortilla chips right. Doesnt look as though they were cooked in house

Teanndras Yates Customer service was amazing. The young lady was very professional at taking the order and giving advice on the options. The food was amazing and filling. The surf and turf and the philly baked potato was scrumptious. The portions are perfect size. We even talk to the owner she was amazing.

Sarah Marie Huban Fantastic experience. Went to Pilgreen’s late on a Saturday night. They were able to seat a large party and accommodate allergies on short notice. Our group of 11 kids and adults enjoyed great food and amazing service. Thanks for a wonderful evening! Looking forward to going back during the day to see the view!

Christopher Monteith The food is incredible. We had steak and eggs, crème brûlée French toast, and apple cinnamon mini doughnuts. It was all amazing. Sausage patties were the perfect amount of spice. Grits were great. The French toast even had a thin layer of sugar to give the authentic brûlée experience. DANTE was such a great server. The place got packed quickly but he never let us go without anything we needed or wanted. Made recommendations and they didn’t disappoint. 10/10 on his service. The place was very clean and organized. We will definitely be back.

Katie Anderson I submitted an email inquiry to host about 20 people for a birthday party - we had never been here before. Dee and team did a fantastic job accommodating us! The food was tasty and hot and came out quickly. Drinks were good. Our server was very attentive and nailed our orders. They even offered us a table for a Godsmack cover band that night. We were able to decorate some and bring our own cupcakes. Thank you for a great first experience! The wicked chicken is 10/10. The ONLY comment I have is it was slightly dark in there for it to be mid day but that is okay!

Mia Delamar Come here a few times for dinner. My favorite is the ribeye steak and the sweet potato fries. The fries are really good. The turkey leg is also always a favorite for my family. The service is quick, the staff always kind and attentive and the food is reasonably priced. You also get great portion sizes as well. Give this restaurant a try. You won’t regret it.

Carolyn Griffin The food was excellent. Our waiter was also serving as bartender. The service was poor. He spent too much time talking to other employees around the bar. Having one job would have been better. I did express my concerns, but he responded very nonchalant. I tipped because thats what I always do.

Kara Definitely better than Miyako (they don’t even have good rice)!!! Tokyo is my new Japanese Go-To in McDonough ❤️ the food was hot, had a great flavor, and the yum yum even had what I assumed was a light fresh garlic hint to it which was so nice and refreshing to compliment the meal. It’s cozy, dim, and features a lot of plants :) Sit at the bar for faster service and same hibachi quality food!

D.A.C I’m in GA for work and a co worker told me about this little gem. I feel there is nothing like a home cook meal and this is as close as it gets to me. I love the Latin flavor and this food was delicious. I got oxtail with rice and sweet plantains and I can’t complain about anything. Service was great, food delicious, and I’m glad I was told about this place, will definitely come back again.

Jordan Forsyth Little bit odd they had most of the lights out but the food made up for it. Ordered a chicken biscuit with bacon and the crunch was perfect, salty edges and falling apart. Definitely using real chicken for a good price
