There's an under-the-radar Jamaican restaurant in central Phoenix

Dig in: Earlier this week, Axios stopped by for a pre-election night meal at Champagne Cafe + Lounge , located in an unassuming storefront at 15th Avenue and Camelback Road.

It came out hot and fast . The chicken was juicy and had plenty of kick from the jerk sauce. I could have eaten
