The food is amazing! Tried the combo with jerk chicken, Mac n cheese, salad, poutine, & soft drinks & I was blown away by the quality of the food! The poutine was on point & the mac & cheese was so cheesy & perfect 😊 The only downside to the amazing food is that it comes in Styrofoam packaging, a better alternative would be a sturdy paper/cardboard packaging, but besides that the food is worth it & the portions are generous!

Ça m'embête d'écrire cet avis car j'ai discuté très rapidement avec les personnes qui gèrent cette place & elles étaient très gentilles.
Ça va être court & bref.
J'ai été très déçue du mac & cheese qui n'avait en rien le goût de fromage. Le goût était plus industriel qu'autre chose.
Je l'ai pris accompagné de Oxtails. J'ai eu 2 oxtails un de taille normal & l'autre où il y avait à peine de la viande. La sauce manque d'assaisonnement & de saveur. Ils étaient malgré tout tendres mais j'aurai aimé pour le prix que ça m'a couté au moins en avoir pour mon argent. Ce qui n'était pas le cas.

J'ai également pris un rouleau de printemps oxtails qui manquait également cruellement de goût.

Tout ceci pour la modique somme de 34,49$ oui oui.
Le max & cheese était tellement pas bon que j'en ai à peine manger. Certaine que vous le préparez avec des pots de crème à fromage industrielle. Bref j'ai encore faim alors que j'ai déboursé 34,49$.
Je ne comprends pas comment on peut faire payer de la nourriture aussi médiocre aussi chère. On vous paie avec l'argent qu'on gagne pour un service de qualité. Je déteste perdre de l'argent aussi bêtement. C'est bien la dernière fois que je mettrai les pieds chez vous.

J'ai l'impression qu'à Montréal beaucoup de places ouvrent un business juste pour ouvrir un business & se faire du cash sans même prendre en compte que le client est la personne à satisfaire en premier……!

Meilleur mac n cheese ever...

Le ribs n'Mac est insane. La vibe est vraiment nice & le personnel est énergique !

L'employé m'a très bien recommandé les items que j'ai choisi. 10/10

Ordered on doordash for the first time in like a year. The quality now is atrocious. Their salad now has cheap ingredients: iceberg lettuce & parmesan cheese instead of feta cheese. It's not the same salad at all & they still show the picture of the original salad. Also they now add sugar to their Plantains! It's sickeningly sweet 🤢 Like ripe Plantains are already sweet enough

Great casual atmosphere with amazing Caribbean inspired food & exceptional service.

We ordered the oxtail patty & oxtail spring roll as recommended by the staff & they were incredible! Both were stuffed with delicious oxtail meat & served piping hot. I would return just for that alone! We also ordered cocktails which were well-balanced & prepared well.

Lastly, our entrees were delicious. I was not a fan of the Mac & cheese as it wasn't the traditional Mac & cheese I expected, yet the staff were accommodating & swapped our entree with no issues. The oxtails were actually the best Jamaican-style oxtail I've had in Montreal. The rice & peas were delicious!

Honestly, just based on the vibes & service, I'd be happy to patronize this establishment again in the future. I'd also recommend it to anywhere looking for good Caribbean food in the Montreal area.
