I've been to Jamaican Vibes many times. I hadn't been in a while so I decided to stop by. I usually get the curry or jerk chicken. I decided to order the jerk chicken this time. My visit to the restaurant was like all others. The staff person behind takes my order and he prepares my food. He is always courteous and makes sure I get what I ask for. For my sides, I had mac and cheese and yellow rice. After I received my food, I headed home with my car smelling delicious. When I got home I dove in to my food. The mac and cheese and rice were delicious but of course the jerk chicken was the star. It never fails. The spice level is always the same as I remember. I always need a napkin to wipe my forehead. It was extremely delicious. read more

Jamaican Vibes Restaurant - Jerk Chicken Meal - Caribbean Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

The oxtail was really good. Chicken curry was good as well. They give a really big serving size. The service is a bit slow because there was only one guy working it, but he had the system down so it was smooth. The ambiance is what you would assume a Jamaican restaurant would be: Jamaican flags, Jamaican colors, Jamaican customers. The only reason why I give this place a 4 stars is because they were missing entrees. I originally came here for the jerk chicken, but they were out, even at lunch time (12:00pm). Other than that, it was reasonable pricing for the portion I got. I would come here again. read more

LOVE this place. I still have more dishes to try from this restaurant! The service is quick depending on what you order. I mostly get my food to go but they have a sitting area to enjoy your food. Very chill inside if you decide to. read more

Jamaican Vibes Restaurant - Ox tails, peas and rice, and cabbage. - Caribbean Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

Went here yesterday for the first time. I discovered their portion size for oxtails are small, overpriced and taste "OK". Also, the owner was rude, I definitely WON'T return but instead go to Kozy Brown in 8 mile. I see decent reviews so I am wondering did I go at the wrong or was the owner just in a BAD mood. Don't know and I ain't going back. read more

Restaurant is clean with nice Jamaican vibes; nice music playing while you dine. Service was nice 1 guy working let us know everything that was done and available on the menu. Food was amazing: Curry Goat: tender tender tender! Great flavor Curry Chicken: tender as well with great flavor. Cabbage: cooked well.not over cooked. Mac n Cheese: unique, super cheesy, great flavor. read more

Maybe I ordered the wrong things but, being around islanders for years and this was not the best. The macaroni was box, the curry was nasty and the only thing I liked was cabbage and I barely got a scoop of that. I went because I overheard some people say they where trying it so thought I'd go. I was disappointed told my friends and they all said this was not the spot. Guess I'll continue driving to Biloxi for the carribean vibes. read more

Visited this place after I checked in to my hotel room in the area. This place is located in a little strip mall. It really could be described as a hole in the wall. I was the only customer there on my visit. I placed my order to go and it didn't take long for it to be prepared. The two gentlemen working weren't the most personable. They weren't mean or anything they just weren't talkative. I ended up getting the brown stew chicken $14.99 with taxes. The meal was pretty good for the most part. My biggest complaint is that it wasn't hot it was lukewarm at best. This brown stew chicken reminds me a lot of Louisiana Creole Chicken Fricassee. The biggest difference being that the brown stew had a hint of sweetness to it, while the Creole fricassee does not. read more

Everything was absolutely amazing! The staff were very friendly and polite. I'm mad I didn't get a plate to go

First time trying this location and I well come back every time I'm in mobile. I'm from out of town and have very few and far between choices for quality Jamaican food near home, this is easily the best I have ever had. Service was great despite not being much opportunity to be great as I walked in and placed a to go order. Praises to the chef/cook I very seldom give praise to restaurants through a review but this was well deserving of high praise. read more

OMG! My lunch was SOOOOO good! Hubs and I stopped in and got our entire lives over plates of oxtails, rice and peas, and cabbage (for me), and curry chicken (same sides) for him. Jamaican Vibes also had my favorites beverages to accompany the meal-- Ting & Jamaican Ginger Beer! The restaurant is clean, and quite large with plenty of seating! The order to table turnaround time was also very impressive. I definitely see why they're rated to highly, and I'll be sure to return! read more

Great food! Some of the best jerk chicken I've ever had. Amazing oxtails and curry goat. Beautiful jewelry selections on display.

Whoa! first thing walking in, already felt the good vibes in the air! Spacious and clean! Customer service was on point! Never had I ate first, and then pay later in this establishment, so it was an interesting experience. The food! The FOOD!!! Was phenomenal and delicious, I got the Ox tail with the rice and beans, paired mac&cheese and a corn bread! 2nd plate was the Goat Curry with the yellow rice, paired with man&cheese and a corn bread also! Must try, and won't be disappointed! read more

I found this place like 10 years ago. I really enjoyed it back then and just haven't been around there much to go back recently. But I'm so glad I decided to take the time to go. Although in the past I've tried the curry goat, the meat pasties and a few other things, the brown stew chicken is awesome! The savory sauce and chicken that's been stewing in it is perfectly seasoned. This is a dish you can enjoy if you don't like heat. Not too spicy like some of the curries can be. Every time I've gone to Jamaican Vibes there's usually only one person working there. So if there are a couple people in front of you be patient. I promise you it's worth the wait. Stand there and listen the the reggae playing and let the music relax you. One day I'm going to have to try some of the other Jamaican dishes like Escovitch fish and if they have ackees and whitefish too. Last time ackees were expensive to bring here. So I didn't get to try them. Check this place out! Great food and definitely great Jamaican Vibes! read more

If you're looking for delicious, authentic Jamaican food. This is it. I've been here more than a few times and embarrassed to say I don't know the guy's name behind the counter. Every time I go there, the food is incredible and he is running the show, alone. The food is incredible!! I've had the curry chicken, oxtails, beef patties and so much more. The sides including the cabbage, the rice and beans, yellow rice and even the cornbread muffin are amazing! I usually wash it all of it down with the ginger beer. The vibe is very laid-back, they serve a generous portion of fresh, housemade Jamaican food at a reasonable price. Check them out. read more

This establishment is pitiful! They NEVER have an entire meal according to their menu. No plantains, no cornbread, and they still want to charge $24.00 plus tax for oxtails, rice and cabbage. I asked for a discount for not having the cornbread or plantains, the guy said no. That was a NO for me too. After telling him no thank you...he told me to never come back. I immediately said...OK! read more

I'm not Jamaican, BUT I was born in and spent most of my life in the North Bronx where for anybody who doesn't know...getting yourself a good plate of Jamaican food is as easy as finding a good slice of pizza. This place here is OFFICIAL!!!! The curry chicken patties are delicious and the jerk chicken is as legit as any I've ever had!!! I had to take back a star from my initial 5 star review because there wasn't a plantain to be had. Hopefully next time I go, they are available and delicious and I can give back a star!

excellent food, the jerk chicken is the best!!! a spot with great engery, and professional service!

The place was constantly busy, people obviously love this place! My husband had the ox tails, which he loved. I had the jerk chicken, but I didn't really care for it. Service was great, very friendly. read more

The one person behind the counter didn't greet us when we came in. He was apparently busy so we waited. Finally I asked about the menu and was told several items were unavailable. I wound up not ordering anything but my sister did. She said the food was nondescript and kind of bland. Maybe this was an off day for them? read more

Delicious and probably authentic Jamaican food, but I do have some critiques. Overall, however, this was very good, very tasty food that I'd love to have again, but I won't be going out of my way because of the price. First, the goods: the jerk chicken is delicious. It's hot, spicy, moist, and literally falls off the bone. The cabbage side is a good; it is mildly tangy and the texture is great for mixing in with chicken or rice. The others: the price for what I got seemed high - a half breast of chicken and a small leg plus a scoop of rice and a scoop of cabbage came out to $10 pre tax. When we went to pay he arbitrarily added a dollar and told me it was tax which wasn't broken down on the receipt as such. The rice (and I did try a little of both) was underwhelming - it seemed old to me and just slightly overcooked. read more

So I was a little hesitant to visit this restaurant because well it is Mobile, AL. While this is not the absolute best Jamaican food I have had it was decent. The ox tails were a bit over cooked but I think that is mostly from sitting in the warming trays for extended period of time. The Mac and cheese was gooey and has a little spicy kick to it. Yum! The jerk chicken was perfectly seasoned, a bit too much sauce but nice compliment to the chicken. Which by the way was so wonderfully tender. Great job on the cornbread! I was surprisingly underwhelmed with the beans and rice. It was nice a good balance of rice to bean ratio and seemed to be seasoned by the excess jerk seasoning. There was no wait at 6pm at night. But it's more in a business park so it likely is very busy during the lunch hours. Overall, the have done a decent job. I will revisit to try some other items on the menu. read more

How do I start....I'm busy today working very hard and lunch has taken me away to the times I spent on some of the most beautiful beaches and waters in the world. The sound of surf sand and Reggae in my ears! The Jamaican Vibes Restaurant made this hectic Monday morning turn over a new palm! Noel, the owner, cook, server is a Kool restauranteur! He has good vibe music playing at the perfect level. He is welcoming and like in the islands, greets with a smile. The ambiance is quant and island themed. See the pictures for yourself. If you are not familiar with the original soul food then "Kum Mon" give it a try. Jerk chicken, Curry, cabbage, rice & beans you will love it. Those that fancy the hardy meal...oxtails and curry goat will set you soul free! Warning: this food will lead to a full tummy and will cause drowsiness!!!! There is always a selection of Jamaican sodas to compliment the great dishes. Come on down and leave your cares at table! You can't go wrong with anything. I'm trying to get him to teach us mere mortals how to throw down like him. read more

First time ever trying Jamaican food. I ordered the combo plate with oxtails and jerk wings with cabbage and yellow rice and a beef patty on the side. The wings definitely had a kick to them and the oxtails were super tender. Not a big fan of the beef patty, not that it was wrong but just personal preference of the texture. read more

Great place to go grab some Caribbean cuisine. Service is fast, and absolutely delicious!

Authentic Jamaican cuisine. Not a fancy place but clean and great food. The jerk chicken is very spicy par the course. My husband had it and couldn't eat it. We brought home the leftovers and I ate them later and loved it! Chicken was so tender and tasty. I had the brown stew chicken and it was amazing. The gravy was out of this world and reminds me of all the delicious Jamaican food in Miami. This is a restaurant where you order at the counter but there are tables to enjoy your food. You eat out of a styrofoam container. Easy to take home. We look Forward to visiting again. read more
