I wish I could give more stars. There are so few really good places to get good food. Kristie is a superstar; no doubt about it. I drive all over Houston regularly. I have Kristie marked on my map.

If you're into Caribbean food, this place is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely amazing, everything is full of flavor and super fresh. What really makes it special is the owner; she's the one who runs the place and is incredibly sweet and attentive. Highly recommend!
