The whole vibe was amazing. The seniors loved every moment of it. My favorite was the jerk chicken and rum cake. This is the perfect food truck for any party. And the bonus is the most nicest people run it. Thank you Island Frydays. You made our seniors very happy. ”
“ Let me start by saying OMG!!!!! I have never had food cooked with such love!! It was SOOOOOO GOOD!! I had heard by word of mouth how great all the food was so when we went, we ordered Ox Tail, BBQ Chicken Wings, Jerk Pork, Pork Ribs and Rum Cake. The food has a Southern Comfort touch with all the heart and soul combined but with a Jamaican touch!! IT IS TO DIE FOR!!! Do not take it from me, go get you some!!! You will thank me later….. ”
“ The food was great! The staff was very friendly. They made our food pretty quick. We had a line of 6 people at the school, and we all got it in about 15 minutes, and it was very hot and fresh. I would come here again; Fry's were very good and the pasta was good also. Jerk chicken was alright not that jerky. ”
