**Polly's Kitchen, 1446 17 Ave SW, Calgary** At the heart of Calgary's culinary landscape, Polly’s Kitchen aims to bring the vibrant flavors of Jamaica to the forefront. However, my recent visit revealed that there's room for improvement for this Jamaican outpost. **Access and Hygiene Concerns** On arrival, the entry through the rear parking lot, which meanders through a hair salon, was unexpected. One doesn’t usually correlate dining experiences with hair salons, raising concerns about hygiene and the overall atmosphere even before entering the restaurant. **Service Delays** Once inside, the wait time for acknowledgment was noticeable, as staff seemed occupied with cooking duties. While patience is often a virtue, especially in establishments that pride themselves on freshly prepared dishes, there’s a fine line between reasonable wait times and those that test diners' patience. Thankfully, the redeeming quality here was the staff's amicability, a glimmer of genuine Jamaican hospitality. **Culinary Misses** I opted for the fried chicken, a staple in many Jamaican eateries. At $24, expectations were understandably high. Regrettably, the dish did not live up to its billing. The chicken was overly dry, with an accompaniment that resembled used frying oil more than a savory sauce. The aftermath of the meal was even more concerning, as I felt unusually fatigued, possibly due to the richness and questionable freshness of the oil. **Ambiance and Decor** The restaurant's interior felt slightly cramped and could benefit from improved ventilation. Yet, the setting was still passable for an intimate Jamaican diner. The pricing, given the quality and quantity of dishes, does seem to lean towards the steeper side. **In Conclusion** Polly's Kitchen has the potential to be a shining beacon for Jamaican cuisine in Calgary. While my experience was less than stellar, I firmly believe that with some attention to detail, especially in terms of food preparation and optimizing the entrance experience, this establishment can indeed excel. It's essential not to judge a place solely based on a singular experience. Therefore, I intend to return and sample other dishes before forming a final impression. Polly’s Kitchen, here’s hoping my next visit showcases the best you have to offer. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2
