Irie Bay Jamaican Cuisine

I only gave it one star because i had to. I ordered jerk chicken. It didn't smell nor taste like authentic jerk chicken. Chicken was ruMore like spicy barbecue chicken. The cabbage had no flavor. The rice and peas was the savior.......barely. Service wise the lady was nice but they mii ok be slow.

It's been a while since I've given a spot a one star rating, but Irie Bay definitely deserves it.The food being served here isn't Jamaican at all and has no flavor whatsoever. If I were Jamaican I'd be completely offended after eating bland baked chicken and shredded lettuce disguised as jerk chicken and cabbage! Let's not even mention the so called rice and peas which should've been called "rocks and peas" due to the rice being severely undercooked and hard in texture.Needless to say, I chose the option of just going to bed hungry yesterday night instead of returning to the establishment and telling that little rude old lady at the front about her garbage food.

Always nice to find a Black owned business. I can only speak to the brown stew chicken. It's tasty. Served with salad, rice and plantains.It is a family run business. They have a bar and sell beer. They also sell island beverages. The crew is friendly. They do not wear masks. Only indoor seating.

Very sweet lady, fed us very very wellAlso was very accommodating to my vegetarian diet!

Late lunch and wanted something different. Stopped in this restaurant and was greeted by this elderly lady. No one was inside eating which was strange but not unlikely with Hooters and McDonald's feet away. There isn't a menu, just 6 or so items written on a chalkboard. We ordered jerk chicken and curry chicken. Food was fresh and hot. Dined in and enjoyed a few cold sodas and patties. For the price I'd go back. The portion size is enough to share.

I visited this restaurant years ago and never returned. I now remember the reason. The customer service is terrible. The food is decent and this is the only Jamaican restaurant for miles. I think that's the the reason this one stays open. I decided to dine in since I had more shopping to complete. I witnessed the older lady be very disrespectful to customers calling to ask questions. She even continued to make comments about the caller after the call ended. My experience with Jamaican natives has always been pleasant. This lady actually commented on my use of salt as I was attempting to enjoy my meal. The food was decent but nothing to brag about. There was a overly sweet flavor on the brown stew chicken. It was also pretty dry. The rice & peas would have been dry without the gravy. The plaintains were fine. There was really nothing on the plate I would return to eat. Definitely not my first choice for Jamaican cuisine.

Rare Ethnic Food No. 15Compare to many Caribbean Cuisine, they a bit above average. In fact, they are Jamaican cuisine. The culture for the Caribbean is more into relax and lay back type. The menu is not printed but on the board. When we were there, many of Jamaican families eat there. The oxtail is the popular item that people order. So we go with it. The food came out in about right timing. The oxtail is cook in the sweet side. It come with rice with pinto bean and salad. The oxtail can be pick out by the folk which the must cook this meat long time for it to fall off the bone. I have some other oxtail before. This one is in the middle of the standard. Service is good. This is a 3.5 stars restaurant to me. Since there is no half star. 4 stars was given in this review.

I was very disappointed by this restaurant. I have to agree with another reviewer and say that this is NOT Jamaican food. My family is Jamaican and therefore we know good Jamaican food. The woman at the counter was super nice and friendly though.

Literally walked in to order and girl behind counter basically said "no I'm not making that. There's 5 people in front of you and it'll be 15 mins.." I said ok that's fine. She said no. Like wtf.... definitely won't be back.

Front counter is rude and obviously hates her job. Slow. I mean SLOW. No drink selection. Food is expensive and mediocre at best. Won't be back. Sparse room with few furnishings.
