  I am really glad my Haitian-American lunch companion took me here to introduce the kind of food he grew up eating!  We got a small brown-stew chicken meal and a small oxtail meal.  Additionally, since I'd never tried a beef patty before, we got one of those as well.  
  
  Now, a small order here is definitely not small. The portion size with the meat, 2 sides, and rice was great.  Every item tasted homemade if that makes sense.  The flavors were distinct and fantastic.
  
  We got our food quickly and had a relaxing, casual lunch inside.  The staff was very kind.

  I grew up with the Charlotte Golden Krust location, as well as many west indian restarlurants in NY/ORL, and this is a letdown. Staff was very nice, but they had ran out of roti and patties by 730PM, and the portions are much smaller than other mom and pop Jamaican restaurants in Durham.
  What really annoyed me was the small amount of meat provided, and the peas and rice tasted really old and not fresh. Would not return.

  I came here for lunch and got a side of Mac and cheese and a beef patty. The Mac and cheese is not your average macaroni and cheese. It's seasoned very strong with a flavor that reminds me of the chicken flavored ramen noodles, it's worth trying. They give you a large block for a side. The two item were very filling for lunch. The spicy beef patties are amazing. There's no sauce for them, but totally worth getting.

  Now I've been to this location several times and at first I was leery of it because it's a franchise. I'm from Brooklyn NY. Home of Jamaican immigrants in East NY where there are several authentic Jamaican Restaurants that are phenomenal. So when I put my fork into the curry chicken, jerk chicken, beef patties & coco bread, I was convinced. I had found my spot for Jamaican food that reminded me of NY. They have expanded their menu but you can get your curry goat, rice& peas, cabbage, sweet plantains ( oh those are so good), your patties, jerk chicken and deserts and drinks from Jamaica. The atmosphere puts you on the island as the reggae music plays in the background.  They give you a good portion which I'm always eating just half and saving the rest. So when you're in the area stop on by. You will not be disappointed.

  Ample parking
  Friendly staff
  Quick service
  They have roti but it's not on the menu!
  Ask for it. It is impossible to find roti here in the Triangle. I got a curry goat Roti for $14. I was stunned by the cost but it's HUGE. Check out my  on yelp.
  The dining area is clean but not immaculate -- like any other fast food place.
  
  Overall, I will return. I wish there was one in Raleigh.
