    I had the most delicious lunch today at Island Vibes, a Jamaican jerk chicken spot not far from the…read moreNashville airport. As I parked in the lot behind the restaurant, I passed the smoker with chicken on the grill and it looked and smelled legit! The exterior is colorful and welcoming, with plenty of outdoor seating, and inside everything felt bright, happy, and clean. The owner Emil was very friendly as I ordered the jerk chicken plate to go, which comes with rice and beans, stewed cabbage, and plantains. I went with the large chicken portion and it's definitely enough to feast on all day. At home, I plated everything and the meal looked beautiful. The jerk chicken sauce was dark, rich, and very spicy, on par with Nashville hot chicken. I loved the earthy kick! The cabbage and carrots were warm with a light pickled flavor unlike anything I've had before; I could honestly eat a whole bowl of it. The rice and beans were the perfect starchy balance to the spicy jerk sauce, and the plantains added just the right touch of chewy sweetness. It feels like a fabulous homecooked meal, made with love! I thoroughly enjoyed every bite and can't wait to bring my husband here. This place is a true hidden gem in Nashville, and I'll definitely be back often!

    I was driving down the street when I saw their signage and made a U-turn. Jamaicaway is located…read moreinside the Nashville Farmer's Market. It's a restaurant but you can also get some bulk Jamaican groceries too. They have so many vegan-friendly options for sides and mains. They even had some vegan desserts. I was impressed! The entrees were clearly marked V for vegan and VG for vegetarian. Their menu descriptions also took the guesswork out of determining what proteins were used. e.g. Soy Chicken, Curry Tofu, Jerk Seitan. This also helped me pick, as I am trying to avoid gluten. I was informed that all of the vegetable sides, except for anything with cheese, are vegan. SPICY JERKED SOY CHIKN (vegan) - I ordered a large plate so I could have leftovers. Both the small and large plates come with two sides, but the portion is bigger with the large. That being said, the portion was huge! The Jerk Soy Chikn was good (not spicy). I paid for an extra side so I got rice and peas, greens, and cabbage. The rice and peas tastes like it's made with coconut milk. It was some of the best rice and peas I've ever had in the USA. The greens and cabbage were very good as well, but the rice and peas were top tier. I went back and got 4 additional sides of it before leaving Nashville. VEGGIE FRIED CHIKN (vegan) - Made with soy. Coated in a seasoned batter and served with mango chutney. Delicious! I loved that chutney! I got a side of greens beans too. They were just ok. I tried the Pineapple Ginger juice. It was good and the ginger was strong. But Riddim n Spice's has better overall taste and both the pineapple and ginger taste fresher there. When I told them I was traveling 4 1/2 hours they were nice enough to package my food in travel friendly containers. I'd love to try more of their vegan options, so I'll be sure to run it back the next time I'm in Nashville.

    Simple advice here: GET THE OXTAIL!…read more It's a 5-star dish - so tender, rich, and oozing with flavor, in huge chunks, with tasty roasted carrots. The sauce is perfect and hearty. Just... wow Oxtail isn't cheap, so for the best deal - get the Jerk Wings Sample! 3 delicious jerk wings for $7, served steaming hot, and they leave a great sauce to dip your sides in (get the yellow rice). For sides, the Green Beans are top tier! Smoky roasted goodness. The spicy beef patty was good, but not the best I've had. Everything else was dope, though. Will return soon, and you should too!
