I had no clue there was more than one Flames. I knew of the one in Providence because its close to…read moreme but I squealed when I saw there was one next to where I would be in the Boston area. My friend and I were looking for a place to get a good and filling meal before skating at Chez Vous and between the three options we narrowed it down to, this won. They have a parking lot for about 7 cars which was very convenient - street parking is also available but just more of a hassle. It smelled so good when we walked in. We tried to figure out the menu, but had some questions. After clarification, it made sense. They offer small, medium or large plates and vary in price depending on the type of meat selected. You can also add double meat or combine meats for an additional charge. We couldn't really see the food because of the condensation on the glass, but from the crevices, everything looked incredible which made it hard to decide. I would say there were about 20 different options of meats. I had never had ox tail before but I felt comfortable letting Flames do the honors of changing that so I chose that. I picked the rice with brown beans, steamed veggies, and oxtail. The really piled everything on. The prices are a bit high, with oxtail being the most expensive, but seeing that you can get two servings from a large plate, it doesn't seem so bad in the end. My friend had the yellow rice with curry chicken and cabbage salad. He also bought an Irish Moss drink which tasted a lot like egg nog. We had the food there. They have about 5-6 tables, each with two chairs, but or some reason the tables are all slanted down so just be careful of food or drinks sliding. The rice with brown beans was really good; midway through I tasted coconut and loved the sweet and savory combo. The ox tail was very tender and the sauce it was in was rich and tasty. The veggies were slightly over steamed but still good. My friend's curry was good. While eating we realized they sell patties as well as desserts; they have a case with these treats. I would recommend coming here for a freshly cooked and big meal. The customer service is also good. They had a sign on the bathroom that it was only for employees so just keep that in mind.

I visited a place the day after I arrived that was tasty but literally I was given a plate full of bones with my jerk chicken meal. Blue Mountain on the other hand was dynamite. Plenty of food for the money and the beef patty was excellent. I've already told my daughter and her friends to visit Blue Mountain if they want great Jamaican food.

I'm not sure if i caught them at the wrong time because it was very early but the service was just…read moreok. I ordered a large jerk chicken plate , mac and cheese, 1 beef, and 1 chicken patty. I will start by saying the beef patty was 10/10 it was fresh and taste was on point I would definitely come back for another. They mistakenly gave me two beef patties instead of 1 curry chicken so I wasn't able to try it. The jerk chicken isn't your traditional Jamaican jerk chicken but it still has nice flavor also the portion sizes are poor I paid $18 for basically to small pieces of chicken and a ton of rice. The mac and cheese also took forever so i decided to skip out on it. Maybe I'll try this restaurant closer to the afternoon time next time.

I attended the conference this year and I was looking forward to tasting their food again! I got the Legume with rice and beans. The Legume is so good and the rice and beans are cooked and seasoned so well. The pikliz has a kick to it, but it's flavorful spice. They give hearty portions that usually last me two meals. Not only is the food great, the owners and the staff are fantastic! They make me feel like family! If I visit Boston again, I'll make sure I find their food truck!

For sides, we got Black Rice, Sweet Plantains, Green Plantains, Rice & Beans. Wow, what a superb meal. Everything was delicious. They also go a little light in the salt which I loved. There wasn't a single dish in there that I didn't like. The chicken was tender, the stew and legumes were flavorful, the rice was well cooked, the tostones were crispy, and the sweet plantains were truly ripe. I honestly wish they had a combo where they could do three mains and six sides cuz I would be into that! And a special shout out to the compostable packaging. Loved it.

You order first then pay at the end of the line. The folks behind the counter are nice and they give you so much food! I was deciding between the oxtail and the jerk chicken.. but someone mentioned that they have the most tender oxtails here so I went for that. The total was around $23, which seems a lot but this easily is 2-3 servings, so it's really worth the price. The oxtail was indeed very tender and flavourful. The rice & peas were also filled with flavour and cooked well. The cabbage I'm not a huge fan of, but I gave it a try. Will probably skip that next time. 10/10 will be back! Maybe for the jerk chicken.

A large is a meal and a half and the pricing is still reasonable for what you get. Some may debate me on the filling but the skins are not to be compared. I have been coming here for 30+ years and the skins have actually gotten a bit better, even though they were already great. New staffing had definitely improved the service. I can remember many years of having to get there by 6:00 if you wanted roti because they were on the last batch of boneless chicken and curried potatoes. In recent years they seem to have gotten better with managing portions and volume. The location is tough. I usually park on the side street just above them because the double parking mayhem of Blue Hill Avenue is not worth the stress. Few people ever dine in. There are a couple of booths but the business is almost entirely takeout. I do miss the Tremont Street/South End and Roslindale locations but I am so glad that Blue Hill Ali's is going strong!

I ordered and was told one time, but the food unfortunately was still not ready on time. It did not appear busy inside so I am not sure what the wait was, but the customer service was better than most Caribbean restaurants. Appears as if a lot of locals frequent this establishment The oxtails only come in one size and I don't think it was worth the money. The rice had no flavor until I put the extra curry gravy on top. 5/10 Oxtails were tender but not many but they were hot 6/10 The escovitch snapper was over cooked and dry. Absolutely would not order again, upset that I waited such a long time for this meal. 2/10 Plantains were nothing special 4/10 Cabbage was average 6/10 I did overhear them mention an inspection that they recently passed, and how they always pass their inspections which made me feel good about eating here at the time. I do not think id return because I expected more & there's plenty of options in the surrounding area. The only plus is that they offer bar seating as well as dining inside which most Carribean restaurants don't have
