Simply the best jerk chicken salad in town, one standout feature is the perfect balance of spicy jerk flavors with fresh, crisp salad ingredients. The tender, flavorful jerk chicken adds a bold kick to the salad, creating a delicious fusion of Caribbean & salad flavors. I drive 45 min each time to go pick it up .. worth every minute ..View more

So happy I found this place. Its hard to get into. You have to walk in the door go up a stair case then go into one of the rooms on the upper floor. For being the only carribean restaurant downtown it's damn good. The oxtail & jerk chicken were great. Roti skin was like I was back in the islands. My only wish is that it wasn't takeout only. I wish they would open up the dining area again. Somet times I walk in & wonder if it's closed since no one's in the front.. Also have fun with the staff it's one of the few places we're the guy hits the 18% tip before giving you the machine 😂View more

We went yesterday evening with a couple of friends for a birthday. The experience was not very good : drinking water had a bad taste (seems like very old water left in the fridge for many days), the service was very very long, even though food was good but not excellent. Unfortunately we won't come back there.

Nous avons mangé à ce restaurant en famille. Le service est très bien, la serveuse était sympathique & souriante. L'ambiance est bonne, avec musique. Les plats commandés étaient excellents. Mention spéciale pour le poulet négril qui est délicieux. Par contre, nous avons été déçus par les entrées (feuilletés & pâtés) qui étaient assez ordinaires.

JAi eu une tres mauvaise expérience le 23 avril 2015. Pour commencer un verre d'eau chaud avec un citron gluan dedans & par la suite mon poulet jerk etait tres sec comme du poulet réchauffer plusieurs fois j'étais une cliente régulière qui apportait souvent de nouveaux clients mais avec cette mauvaise expérience qui m'a rendu malade toute cette publicité positive se transformeras en négatif tres mauvaise gestion du problème .... Quand on a des clients régulier on fait de notre mieux pour les garder😡 !!!

Pas trop fan du mobilier ou du décor, mais l'ambiance nous permet d'oublier tout ça rapidement (comme quoi on peut faire simple pour créer une bonne ambiance). Je ne m'y connais pas du tout en cuisine jamaïcaine, ayant des amis de presque partout autour sauf de la Jamaïque, mais les plats que nous avions commandés étaient bons même si je m'attendais à quelque chose de plus relevé pour mon plat & les accompagnements supportaient bien les éléments principaux tout en étant familiers.

Great restaurant! The food is simply delicious! Must try: goat curry & oxtail dish for main dish & mango ice cream for dessert - yummy! The ambiance is great, not crowded & quite cheerful. I absolutely recommend this resto!

The service was pretty quick, considering that when I went with 3 friends on a Wednesday evening there was only one waitress & a good number of other tables. She got us our drinks fast & was very pleasant. As for the food, forget it. I take trips to Jamaica at least once a year & I have never seen a chicken breast anywhere near jerk chicken. The jerk tastes like the chicken & the jerk sauce were sloshed together at the last minute. A friend of mine had the mango chicken, which was positively overdone & awful. My sweet potato was somehow cold right off the bat & my other friend couldn't believe how small her plate of king fish was. The oxtail & curry goat are the same price. Either this place is joking or trying to snake out every last dollar from unknowing downtown tourists. Avoid unless you want to spend money for no good reason.

The place is quite small & the tables are really close to each other, which means you can’t have a lot of privacy talking to your friends when the restaurant is full. Though the atmosphere was really cozy, the walls were painted in orange & warm yellow which reminded me of a sunset. There were also beautiful paintings of Caribbean scenes on the walls.

I had beef patties as appetizers, they were delicious but the portion is quite big for one person. They were crunchy, the beef was tasty & a little bit spicy & the sweet & spicy sauce that came with it was really good. We were a group of 8 persons & four of us ordered the patties & the wait was really long. We waited about thirty minutes before we got the appetizers.

I ordered the Negril chicken. It was a chicken breast in slices marinated in a very sweet sauce with hot spices. The chicken was sure tasty! It came with a quite small slice of sweet potato, three pieces of fried banana plantain & a bowl of rice & peas. The sweet potato wasn’t much tasty but the fried plantains were delicious. They were crunchy on the outside & soft in the inside. Everything was really well cooked though I would have like to have more sweet potatoes than only one slice. The presentation of the plate was a little bit disappointing because of its simplicity, it looked like not much efforts have been put in it. Even though it was too simple, the plate was very colourful with the brown-red sauce, the yellow plantains, the orange potato & the light brown rice.

I enjoyed my overall experience, Caribbean cuisine is definitely worth the try especially at Mango Bay because of its good quality food & affordable prices.

Very casual restaurant. Chairs were old uncomfortable & cheap. Not a great place if you want to impress anyone. But food & service was good. Nothing special but if you like jamacian spice & sauces it could be worth a try.
