" This little gem inside the gas station was a surprising find! The curry goat was tender, and the rice and peas were full of flavor, immersing me in that authentic Caribbean taste. The staff treated us like family and made our experience enjoyable. I ordered enough to take home for dinner, and I think I'll be dreaming about this meal for weeks to come. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Jamaican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the best Jamaican meal at France-Ella's! The jerk chicken was perfectly seasoned and had that great smoky flavor that takes you right back to the Caribbean. The service was excellent; the staff were friendly and attentive. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried this place after hearing so much hype, and I was let down. I got the Oxtails and they were just average, lacking flavor. The atmosphere was not appealing either. I was hoping for something better and probably won't return. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you appreciate Caribbean food, you NEED to visit France-Ella's! Everything we ordered was fantastic, especially the macaroni and cheese! The atmosphere is warm, and service is friendly. I can't recommend it enough to anyone looking for a taste of the islands; this restaurant does it right! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, the flavors here are remarkable! You can tell how passionate the owners are about their food. The curry goat melted in my mouth, and the portions are incredibly generous for the price.

" Having visited numerous Jamaican restaurants, I was excited to try this one. The service was decent, and the ambiance was cozy. However, the food was a bit hit-or-miss for me. The jerk chicken was satisfying, but the oxtails were overly salty. I appreciated the generous portion sizes, but I left yearning for that authentic taste that brings you back home. I might attempt it again if I'm around, but I won't be rushing back. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place deserves all the praise! The oxtails were perfectly cooked and seasoned. I loved how they paired them with rice and beans. The ambiance feels cozy and authentic, and the service was top-notch. It’s great to find such a quality Jamaican restaurant, especially inside a gas station! They have won my loyalty; I'll be back for sure. " (*Curated Review*)
