Faybee's Restaurant draws praise for bold flavors with dishes like jerk chicken, curry goat and oxtail, as well as griot and patties, with many finding the food delicious and authentic; however several reviews note inconsistent portions, dry sides and occasional dips in quality, along with online ordering and billing hiccups. Overall the place is seen as a lively Caribbean option where takeout is convenient, some visits shine with outstanding meals, and repeated visits happen for those craving the flavors.
So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so good. Rice is not dry but not too flavorful either, the sauce is sweet & tasty, the salad is nice. However, the jerk chicken is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. Best I've ever had HANDS DOWN. Will probably be back tomorrow for more. They also give you a bit of that pepper sauce (Komla?) that you only get in the Caribbean - it's a bit spicy so watch out haha.
But seriously. Props to whoever made that recipe. It was delicious.

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.
Spotted this on SkipTheDishes, it's just across the highway from me, so I tried to order. I got a vibe it's Creole/Caribbean food, a cuisine I'm not familiar enough with. But the complete lack of pictures & descriptions prevented me from even trying. (What are'Festivals'? What are'Doubles'?) The only thing I felt confident enough ordering was Jamaican Patties, which isn't enough. & at least some options are missing, there's'Tropical Drinks' &'Island Sodas', even safe sounding'Can Soda', but no listing of what flavours there are & no possibility to pick one. The SkipTheDishes menu isn't set up enough to place orders. (Review requires a score, scoring 3 stars only based on the above, scoring midway because I don't have any actual information about the food or service)

Love this place. The staff is so polite & sweet. I have tried their patties & they are delicious. Jeri Chicken & rice is yum... Surely coming back for other things. They have a green spicy sauce & wow.. one of the spiciest sauces, had to be extra careful with that !
My favorite place used to be Curry House in cote -des-neiges buy unfortunately with new ownership the food there became inedible. I was sad because no other place near me is good. until i found Faybee's. Best jerk chicken. Best oxtail. salad always fresh. plantain crsipy with fluffy soft deliciousness inside. they provide small containers with sauce & juices. i have no words. AMAZING.
