See All ReviewsThe oxtails were rich, tender, and packed with deep, savory flavor-slow-cooked just right so the meat was perfectly seasoned and fell off the bone. The portion size was just right, leaving you full without feeling overwhelmed. Jerk chicken is so good and tender as well. The flavor is unmatched. I have also tried the curry chicken extra spicy and honestly this is one of my favs. The flavors in the curry are just so yum. The rice and pease is by far the best I’ve ever had . It’s like a dance party in your mouth. The flavors blend so well. I’ve never had Rice n pease that good It was full of flavor with a texture that was absolutely on point-not mushy, not dry, just perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. The fried dumpling came out warm and soft with a subtle hint of sweetness that balanced the meal beautifully. The cabbage was fresh, vibrant, and flavorful, adding a nice lightness to the plate. Every element worked together, showing care in both seasoning and preparation. If you're looking for authentic Jamaican food this place is it!
The food is absolutely amazing! I had the stew chicken and it is a must try if you are new to Jamaican food or have been enjoying the cuisine for years. This restaurant has the best side selection I’ve ever been offered, complete with rice and peas, cabbage, fried plantain and fried dumpling.
I’ve been eating here for years. Recently the name changed but I heard it’s the same people not sure. I love Tony. But I ordered yesterday at Melo’s and it’s different not the same as before not bad as in flavor. But I paid over 20$ for jerk chicken and it was mostly bones big bones no meat and barely any cabbage. Needless to say after paying for this I was still hungry. I kept trying to scrape the little bits of meat of the bones. Not sure I’ll be going back. It’s disappointing and hard to find good Jamaican food in New London. Definitely miss my boy from Broad Street.
