Across reviews Faybee's Restaurant earns praise for bold Caribbean flavors and dishes like jerk chicken, griot, goat curry, oxtail, roti, and patties, with many noting the food is delicious and the atmosphere lively or cozy, yet several comments highlight inconsistency in portions and meat quantity, including small portions for the price and oxtail not always tender. Takeout and online ordering experiences are mixed, with occasional price discrepancies, missing extras, and busy service that can feel urgent or loud. Some visitors had off days where dishes did not meet expectations, while others call Faybee's a hidden gem and a reliable go to for flavorful meals and good drinks. Seating is limited and takeout is common, but the overall impression remains that the flavors are strong and authentic, even if consistency varies and service can be uneven.
Faybee's is more of a take-out place, there are however a few tables if you want to be seated. The food is great! The roti's & plates are well proportioned & nicely seasoned. Very much recommended!
Have to bring down the rating because this is one of the most inconsistent restaurants I've ever eaten from. Sometimes, the food is amazing. Truly, the very best version of itself. Other times, they just throw the worst chicken scraps, full of bones & with a strange texture, into your plate. Maybe one of their chefs just does not care. This has happened to me several times, including today. When it's great, it's easy to recommend, but it's such a gamble every single time that I don't think I'll go back any time soon.

Today, I had a true Caribbean food experience at this hidden gem. I ordered the curry goat, & my friend chose the oxtail; both came with a side salad, rice, two plantains, a small Jamaican bread, a very spicy sauce (watch out-it's really hot!), & a drink. They have some variety of Jamaican drinks.
The goat meat was tender & moist, & it was my first time trying oxtail, which was also delicious. We sat outside since the weather was beautiful today.
The man who served us was polite & kind, taking time to explain the menu & dishes thoroughly.
I highly recommend this place.
