"When ordering from Irie Mon, timing is everything. Their jerk chicken and oxtails are fantastic, but they’re on the heavier side. So, plan ahead—if you don’t grab a bite during a break in the show, you might end up dozing off under a Central Park tree right when your favorite act hits the stage." - juli horsford, jacinta howard

"If you follow the plume of grill smoke or the steady trail of nursing uniforms and business suits, you'll hit this low-key Jamaican café hooking up oxtails and curry chicken at the Macquarium office building on Peachtree. Because it’s so popular with takeout orders and food delivery services, the jerk chicken is always within tong’s reach. Don’t hesitate to grab some if you’re in a hurry. Should you have a few extra minutes to wait (with a Kola Champagne in hand), get the jerk salmon, a semi-spicy dish accompanied with grilled bell peppers and onions that takes its times coming out the kitchen but will have you hurrying back." - DeMarco Williams

"With hearty servings of jerk chicken cut into lean, chunky bites and perfectly prepared rice and peas, Irie Mon Cafe in Brookwood Hills seems to offer a true representation of Jamaican food on its menu. Bite into breakfast meals like porridge (cornmeal or plantain), ackee and saltfish with hoecakes, or the fried-plantain-topped callaloo and fried dumpling. The cafe also serves Halal curry goat, beautifully spiced braised oxtail, and even a fried chicken entree that challenges some of the city’s most famous establishments for crispy yardbird. Irie Mon Cafe includes a mural depicting JFK, President Obama, Nina Simone, and Usain Bolt painted together against a Jamaican flag centered around Bob Marley and one of his most famous lyrics." - Mike Jordan
