JERK VYBES RESTAURANT

The food is AMAZING! I come here almost everyday to order the jerk chicken 1/2. The Food and the Chef is AMAZING! The size and portions and price are reasonable. His chicken is moist and very savory!

Visiting the area, I chose this location because of its excellent reviews and high rating. I was not disappointed. It lived up to everything that was written. I understand the minimal staff and this location, but the staff was very friendly, and my food was prepared as timely as possible. There was a short wait but the food was worth it. The food was delicious. The callaloo in particular was very tasty. I will definitely be back here again.

My husband and I went on Monday May 5, he wanted Jamaican food we are from up north and love Jamaican food, but was disappointed in this place. The food had no flavor. We ordered the Rasta pasta, oxtails and veggie plate and two drinks total 75 dollars .The veggie plate had no gravy on the rice as I asked. The pasta had no flavor and look like Mac and cheese.

We ordered some steam snappers over the phone and we can tell that everything was on point. First of all , it was ready when we got there which isn’t normal for most restaurants. Customer service greet you working in and was super friendly. Love my steam and won’t go nowhere else!!!

I'm sure many of you don’t know this, but in a past life, I cooked professionally in a number of restaurants—some of them rated four stars and above. I only share that to make one thing clear: I don’t play about food. I may not be what you'd call a bougie eater, but I am particular. Sharing good food is one of my love languages. So let me tell you about today’s unexpected delight. After dropping my son off at work, my stomach made it clear I needed to eat—expeditiously. I found myself down off Buffington Road, unfamiliar with the area and unsure of my options. Thank goodness for Google: I spotted a place just a mile away with a 4.8-star rating. That alone piqued my interest. Now listen—do not let the unassuming location fool you. If you’re searching for authentic, flavorful Jamaican food on the Southside, this is it. Hands down, better than anything I’ve had in the Atlanta area to date. And yes, that includes the spot my Jamaican friends swear by. I ordered the pineapple jerk chicken with rice and peas and a side of cabbage. I always taste my vegetables first—and let me tell you, the cabbage was seasoned and cooked to absolute perfection. Tender with just the right bite, and full of flavor. Then came the chicken leg: juicy, richly marinated, and wrapped in that bold jerk flavor. While I tend to love all things hot, the spice level here was balanced just right—enough heat to satisfy but smooth enough for any palate to enjoy.

Service was amazing. Cashier had a great attitude and recommended the curry chicken dinner for my first time. A little pricey but they are not stingy with the food. 9/10

This was the best Jamaican food I’ve had in Atlanta coming from Up North honestly. But oxtail to be almost $40 and to only get 5 should be criminal lol. That’s what takes my stars down to 4. This is a non-aesthetic food spot offering authentic flavors and overall good quality food. But the price is off-putting and semi out of touch for the location. Taste was there 100% but this was a $30 max platter. They need a new oxtail plug so we can continue getting the amazing authentic flavor for a better price. Honestly I’d go back regardless of the price because of the flavor but it’s not frequently, $40 for 5 oxtail is more of a splurge.

The best Jamaican food I've ever had! Only one guy taking orders and cooking all the food, but it still didn't take too long. We got the pineapple jerk chicken and brown stew chicken, which were delicious. For sides we got candied yams (super spiced and yummy) and cabbage which is a MUST. I don't know how they make cabbage so good! They guy taking orders was amazing, and even gave us free samples so we could decide what we wanted to order. There are only 2 tables and a small bar for seating, so we got take out.

THIS IS A PICK UP ONLY RESTAURANT. Came around 12:15am and found that out the hard way.... The parking lot was busy on a Monday night. I couldn't imagine it on the weekend. I'm from out of town and we were road tripping through Atlanta. We decided to check this place out because it's a better option than bar food and fast food. Lemme just say, the chicken flavor itself was delicious. The texture was off.... It's not bbq like I'm used to. It's basically oven cooked, more like stewed chicken... in consistent texture. Some pieces were slightly underdone and some where more try. I get it, light and dark, but still, why so rubbery and overly pink at times? Rice was fine but needed more flavor. Luckily the chicken drippings made the rice from the bottom more flavorful. IF YOUR GOING TO EAT IN YOUR CAR, DONT. ITS A MESS. They give you tiny cutlery that's flimsy. The restaurant provides no extra napkins or wet wipes. I had to stop by the local gas station to CLEAN UP!! The candy yams are in a terrible container that spills out the side when trying to remove it from the bag. The yams are huge!!! Not cut into tiny cubes... beware, they are hard to eat with the cheap cutlery. PLEASE INVEST in more useful and thoughtful containers. Really hate that I got burned with yams on the side of my leg. For me, this place was a flop. Will return later in the year to see if things change. Maybe I just came on a busy night.

On my soul. Oxtails FIRE. BBQ Jerk FIRE. Mac n Cheese BUSTING. Just ordered on DoorDash. I don't play about my food. Y'all it's so good.

As a Caribbean, one piece of plantain is so disrespectful. Never ordering food from jerk cuisine again

Food is delicious the pineapple jerk chicken and the oxtails.definitely will be ordering again
