Where do I begin?… Bellyful will literally give you a bellyful. The portions are great and everything has flavor in it. The food has great quality some things I believe are a bit over priced but overall you’ll never be disappointed. Overall the menu has decent prices for most items. The drinks are just as fresh and amazing as the food. You’ll love the carnival and Caribbean decor of this Afro Caribbean restaurant. The West Indian ambiance of the colors, island music and general theme is a vibe. They open late and you can also order for delivery. I dined in. The is was my second time in a span of two years. I realized the opened up the space and provided more seating. The outside space also has its own vibe with high tables, chairs and lighting. The customer service is okay. I had a server named Cody who literally was doing everything and managing several people and managed to cater to all. Shout out to him! I think the customer service could increase just a bit overall as a company but I do like it there. Make sure to visit and tell the Dj or live musician to “run your favorite track or play your song”. Enjoy

Visited on a rainy Saturday night so we were able to get a table for 4 right away. Our server Randy was friendly and professional with a big smile. Our food from appetizers of codfish fritters and also Ackee and saltfish with thin strips of fried plantains were delicious. We all loved our entrees of melt in your mouth oxtails, crispy coconut shrimp and large serving of jerk chicken were all fantastic. Least I forget, the in house fresh ginger beer was wonderful with my Appleton rum. Unfortunately they were sold out of the 2 Caribbean desserts and I didn’t want to spoil my Jamaican meal with an American dessert. Guess I’ll have to go back and I’m looking forward to it. Prices were also good.
