This unassuming spot isn't much to look at. The outside seating is really nice. Would be perfect for sipping on a mimosa or margarita. Unfortunately, they don't have a liquor license. The food is delicious and freshly prepared. We all ordered shrimp something. Mine were blackened with Cajun butter. My kids got Rasta Pasta and Shrimp n Grits. The Cajun butter is EVERYTHING! My bland veggies turned into a delicacy because of the butter. My daughter's grits were too "dry" for her. We asked for some butter, it made a of difference. Our service was polite and efficient. They even changed my daughter's Island mango drink for a half and half. She didn't like the mango. As with most good restaurants, it was a bit pricey. We all had leftovers which made the price a little easier to justify. It's a great little spot. It's 5 minutes from there to the Cinemark in Towson.

The new Chef Bobby Ds in Towson has been Grand Opening/soft opening for about a month. We've heard wonderful reviews of the food, but to expect a wait. And we have to concur. The jerk is delicious, on the mild side for jerk, but still warm and tingly. The peas were fresh and crisp and everything on top of the coconut rice was delicious. The chef was in and out of the kitchen occasionally and he was very friendly. The other staff was pleasant, but very subdued. We'll definitely come again, but only when we have lots of time, or nothing planned for after. It was lovely sitting outside and chatting with friends from the neighborhood.

Stopped in yesterday to grab food to go w one of my friends. It's ample parking, very clean inside and decorated really cute! It started filling up with sitting patrons and orders to go around 6:30-7pm. Get there early bc they make your order fresh so it takes some time. Regardless of business being busy, the lady working the front was so friendly and had a nice vibe. She smiled and remained calm during pressure. I ordered the oxtails over Rasta Pasta-3.5/5 ($24) which was tasty (not greasy at all) the pasta was creamy and flavorful with a slight spicy kick. There was crunchy bell peppers added texture in which I enjoyed. The oxtail were big, soft and had yummy gravy. The bonus item was the fresh pineapple ginger drink!! It was refreshing and had the perfect ratio of both flavors. They also had a mango juice, iced tea and lemonade. My friend ordered the vegetarian bowl normally ($16) minus tomato & corn and added blackened salmon- 4/5 ($24 w salmon) The bowl came with rice & black beans, sliced avocado plus chickpeas in a sweet yellow sauce that was AMAZING!! That's all I'll say! I'll be back I'll be getting the order my friend had as it was much lighter. We ended up getting a slice of chocolate & red velvet cake. Kinda wished I tried the Lemon flavor bc it looked good. It didn't taste like they made it fresh on location so id save $6 per slice. I know I'll be going back in the near future for the reggae Jam coconut shrimp maybe and I recommend you go too! See y'all there

This was my first time at Chef Bobby D's but it won't be the last!We tried jerk wings and reggae jam coconut shrimp for starters. Both were outstanding. The shrimp comes with coconut bread to sop up the delicious sauce. For our entrees, we had Jamaican Rasta pasta and penne duo blast pasta. The duo blast dish was ok but sauce could have been better seasoned. The staff were all so friendly and the dining area was clean and well stocked with condiments.

Clean restaurant and seating area. Cashier was great in helping me make a decision of what I had a taste for. While they did not have any ginger beer, their Ting grapefruit side definitely was a great replacement. Food was fresh and delicious. The serving provided was enough for two people. I ordered the oxtail with extra gravy, rice and beans and plantain meal and coco bread. This was my first visit and definitely not my last!

Pulled into the parking lot and was heading to another restaurant. I asked my girlfriend if that was the name of the place her kids ate in Hamden. She thought so , and gave them a chance. The bbq jerk wings were excellent. Everything else not so much. Ordered Oxtail pasta recommended by the very pleasant server/cashier.Pasta was inedible with the cream sauce and oxtail gravy. So replaced with Cajun shrimp pasta. Shrimp undercooked. Cream sauce had so flavor. My girlfriend got the Jerk Salmon pasta . Salmon was good but pasta again no flavor , just a clump of greyish white cream sauce.

Went to the restaurant and ordered Oxtail meal and a pineapple ginger drink. Drink was awesome and refreshing . Very clean and nice place. Very friendly people. When I first saw the meal I thought it was burnt . Did not smell burnt . I guess it is a black sauce cooked in. I have had the meal in Orlando and Atlanta but this meal tasted better. The rice had different types of beans. He gave a large portion of meat. It was tender. It had red pepper charred and plantains. I think it it better than the other meals I had in Orlando and Atlanta . Quality ingredients. Happy he did not serve it with the no taste cabbage that came with the others

The food came out relatively fast, while I'd asked prior to ordering my food if it was served with BBQ jerk sauce or traditional jerk rub. I was promised it was jerk rub. Upon getting home , it was a bBq Esque jerk sauce and not the rub. My rice was a little dry, while I was already 40 minutes away. First time here, lesson learned.

Always great! Food is fantastic and service top notch. Can't beat the crab cake entree and ribs are fall off the bone delicious. Make a surf and turf combo by ordering one each crab cake and rib platter. You will not be disappointed.
