The Stewed fish is so delicious. It was bursting with flavor. Went on a Friday night with a group of friends. Really enjoyed the food and had a wonderful dining experience. The service was great, very friendly and pleasant staff.

Buffet was great; the curry goat was the best meat by far! Right in downtown with lots of street parking. Really rich, authentic food. Great seasoning and we filled up because it was all you can eat!

The jerk chicken as good. They had a band that was really good. We sat outside in a both made with white Lester sofas. Drinks was very strong. The DJ is as very good as well. Parking was in the street so you have to get there early to find parking. They have where you can sit inside or outside. I love that they set up tents to keep the sun off your face. We had a really good time.

Came in the other night after a concert. They looked in my purse and used a personal metal detector on my husband and I as soon as we walked in. This was Immediately uncomfortable.We sat down in a mostly empty restaurant only to be stared at by wait staff. We sat... and sat.. until we got tired of being hungry and just sitting there. (15 minutes and nobody had even taken our drink orders). We definitely won't return. In fact, I will tell everyone I know NOT to eat here just based on how we were treated. This was one of the most uncomfortable dining experiences I've ever had.

Stumbled here after a Salsa event I went to at Underbelly. We wanted something open after hours. It's a reggae/hip hop club. Music was great but man you pay $10 to get in and on top of the a drink is $25 and beer is $10!! They lost their mind. Then we went to eat at their cafe. The food was ok. I had the beef Patties but they were out of potato bread. I guess I can't complain since it was like 3 am. Lol so I guess I shouldn't complain. All in all. You're paying for the fact that it's an after-hours spot. I recommend to not get crazy with those expensive drinks.

I love the plantains, cabbage, wings, fried shrimp and beef Pattie's at De Real Ting. Their Caribbean food isn't the best in Jacksonville and I hate that you have to ask for sauce because every time I've ordered the Jerk Chicken it's dry, and then I have to order 4-6 sauces which is beyond me.They have live bands sometimes depending on the season and usually on Friday. Oh, you can also enjoy karaoke on Fridays inside of the cafe and I enjoy it every time. Friday downstairs is hip hop night and Saturday's is reggae night. But they honestly play reggae mixed in every single time.Downstairs in the club and a whole other world. It gets really hot, you won't have much service on your phone and you can smoke downstairs as well.

Nice little Caribbean place with lunch time buffet. Have driven by here a lot but happy to finally try this place today. The lunch buffet is $10.99 and drinks are separate. Had delicious jerk chicken, yellow curry with chicken and potato, mixed vegetables with cabbage and carrots (so good!) fried chicken, yellow rice, and salad. The mixed vegetables with cabbage and garlic were so good, they were pan seared in garlic and oil, addictive really. I had a couple of servings. Finished up with a nice small scoop of homemade peach cobbler from the buffet. It is as good as it sounds, warm and sweet, with a touch of tartness. My coworkers got some goat meat pies and really enjoyed them too. Will definitely come back and the jerk chicken is off the chain!

I went with some friends around midnight on Saturday night/Sunday morning for our first visit. The cover charge was $15, but unfortunately, the staff at the entrance and the bar were not very welcoming. The place itself was okay--it's downstairs, but felt run-down and not particularly special. There were just two small pool tables and a dance floor. The drinks were extremely overpriced for a spot like this. There are definitely other places in town that offer a nicer, cleaner atmosphere with more reasonable prices. Haven't tried the food though but probably won't come back
