The bartenders are great , attentive and know all the food drink suggestions. I loved loved loved the love island themed menu The food is equally as good. I've had the salmon cake , the oxtails, the wings , the burgers and the shrimp and I can't wait to try more of the menu. The restaurant is open daily and you can order great Caribbean food for dine in or to go. They even are on apps like door dash but the vibe is so much better inside . They also have an outdoor patio if you don't want to sit inside Some nights they have special events and stay open late for a more party vibe. The staff is great. They make you feel special as a customer and encourage you to be a repeat guest. This is what I've been missing in the Gwinnett area and I'm so glad I found it . You have to check this place out !

Food was very good. Cafeteria style service, Caribbean flavors. Felt like homemade…read more Service was stiff, not terribly friendly and hard to hear over the Caribbean music (with a legitimate steel drum). Clean enough, a bit run down, but fine. I'm not Caribbean, so I can't speak to authenticity, but it felt authentic and was good. My wife was put off by the volume of the music and the inattentive service. It felt like a bar trying to be a restaurant, which is fine if that's what you're looking for. I can't complain about the food, though.

We wanted to dine in so we sat down he just stare for a sec finally he bring us menus, he states there's no cashier today so we have to pay cash or Zelle. He also tells us there's no beef okay fine, my friend is Nigerian so she started asking him questions about the food he seems to get upset and tells her she asks too many questions how rude. She ask him why he has attitude he goes back and forth with her at that point we decided to leave and go some other place.

Those beef suya tacos were really good! Since they come with Jollof Rice in each taco, i think…read morethey'd be even better as a burrito. They came with steak fries, which i'm usually not the biggest fan of, but they were fried crispy so I didn't mind them. The jollof rice also tasted good on it's own - not the best Naija jollof I've had (not spicy), but solid for a restaurant/bar. Our server was really sweet as well. Even though they're open for dinner hours, it's definitely mainly a bar/lounge based on the size and setup. I will warn - if hookah is not your thing, this isn't the place for you. Since it's pretty small in there, there's nowhere to really get away from the smoke or people who are smoking. I'd go back for dinner, but would make sure I'm out before ~11pm, which is when it seems to pick up in traffic and smoke.

As a Nigerian, I'm very selective on African restaurants but this place is great! I usually come…read morehere during the week so there's no event and it's not packed. I can't speak to how the service is on a busy night but I haven't had any problems on the days that I've gone. Some menu items are served on select days which is a bummer but other than that, me and my friends have always been satisfied with the food. I've had their shrimp tacos, asun (peppered goat) and jollof which are delicious. My friend has also ordered their kpomo and had no complaints. I've been to a few African restaurants and this is by far my favorite. The food here is so flavorful compared to others OTP. My only con is that the music is very loud even when there's hardly anyone in the restaurant. I wished they'd turn the music down but I guess that is the culture here in Atlanta. Definitely give this a place a try, you won't regret it!

Ovations Caribbean Grill has got a solid line up of menu items…read more We had the: - Jerk Chicken (with rice and peas [stew chicken cravy], cabage, and plantains) - Curry Chicken - Jerk Pork - Jerk Ribs - Oxtail Mac n cheese - Veggie Patty From top to bottom: The Jerk Chicken is tender. Make sure you get extra Jerk Sauce though! The seasoning is decent and there's a low level of spice to it. I recommend mixing it in with a bit of rice for a bite (maybe a bit of juice from the jerk ribs as well). The rice and peas are fine, but the stew chicken gravy is the star of the show. I'd get extra stew gravy on top next time I come. The cabbage is nothing to write home about, but its good fiber and doesn't clash with the other flavors of the plate. The plantain was fine as well, nice and sweet and best eaten when you first get your plate. The curry chicken is tasty! (Tender aswell) It almost falls apart in your mouth and has a decent moisture to it from the curry. Its good by itself, with the rice, or eaten with some coco bread. The jerk pork is fatty and has a good jerk seasoning flavor (not spicy at all). Its probably the most tender meat they have and its good even after being reheated a short time. The jerk ribs were my favorite! The ribs come off the bone easy and the sauce that comes on them is the best jerk sauce in the restaurant. I definitely recommend trying them if you like jerk or pork. (For a fuller, spicy note of flavor, get the hot jerk sauce to dip or pour on the ribs.) The Oxtail Mac N Cheese is okay, but its nothing too special. There's less cheese in the equation than a typical American Mac N Cheese, but the Oxtail is pretty good. Fatty, soft to chew, and almost buttery, I appreciate the influence, but I'd prefer a cheesier and saltier version of this dish. The Veggie Patty was great! I think the patties are homemade as I've never had such a good vegetable patty. I'd come back for the patties alone! The coco bread we got sat for a bit so it wasn't as soft, but I suspect thay was my fault. TLDR; I definitely recommend this restaurant! Its a 4 to 4.5/5 considering what Jamaican food in Georgia typically tastes like. We had leftovers that were good the next day! Get a jerk pork, a patty, some jerk Chicken, and make sure you get extra jerk sauce and extra gravy for your rice.

The dry rice and fish it's self was not flavorful at all! The fish was extremely dry and tasted old. The sauce on top helped add some flavor , the spicy pepper sauce was extremely good wish I had more of that. I also ordered okra sauce as well,that had smoked turkey ,chicken and fish. The smoked turkey meat they used was VERY overwhelming and I could not eat any of it. I was super disappointed because okra sauce is my favorite thing to eat when eating African food. The lady that took my order was really nice, and inside of the restaurant seemed like a cool spot to have drinks and eat inside.

This was my 1st time tasting Liberian food. The food is very flavorful. I'm not too familiar with…read moreAfrican food so I don't have much to compare, but the food was well prepared, and tasted really good. I ordered the grilled wings and it wasn't salty. The spice they give with the wings is SPICY (I should have asked for more)!!! The fried plantains are sweet plantains and it taste like they add sugar to it (I didn't like that very much). I LOVED the cassava leaves (I wished I had some of that spicy sauce to add to it). I didn't like the rice, but that's more of my personal preferences (it was just plain white rice, but it was the big thick rice. I like Jasmine Rice or madam gougousse). I would be open to trying something new on the menu or returning back here !

I am not sure what has changed but this weekend I had a very disappointing visit. The service was…read morefriendly but once I got home (45 mins away) I realized I was definitely hustled. I ordered mix meat stew with jollof and received literally 2 pieces of edible meat and 1 non edible piece. Egusi had a weird taste but garri was perfect. For $60 to cover 2 take out orders, I felt hustled. The food was already packed up so I guess if I had stopped and checked before leaving, I could have asked for the rest of the meal because there is NO WAY this is what would be served if I was dining in.

I was meeting a friend here for lunch. It is pretty much in an industrial strip mall, and I easily…read morefound an available parking spot in the shared parking lot right in front of the restaurant. I went in and he had already gotten us a table. Our server came over pretty quickly and took our drink orders. I wanted to taste some authentic African beer. My friend suggested an Orijin or a Trophy Premium Lager beer. I ordered the Trophy Lager and my friend ordered the Orijin. I later found out his drink was not an actual beer, but some kind of mixture of alcohol flavored with African herbs and fruits. We took a small taste of each other's drinks. Mine tasted like a standard lager, really. We reviewed the menu and I described what I had a taste for. My friend suggested that I get the Jollof Rice with Chicken, and that's what I ordered. He ordered the Pounded Yam with Egusi soup. My food came out quickly. My friend's order took longer than expected, but he told me to go ahead and start eating, so I did not wait. The food was very good, well seasoned, and had a nice spice kick. My friend's dish came out about 15 minutes later. It must have been a specialty item since it took so long. Once it arrived, he enjoyed it, even though I think he had ordered it before. The restaurant was a little empty, with just a few other patrons inside. While we enjoyed lunch, we listened to some good, authentic Afrobeats music in the background. I even Shazamed a couple of songs while we were sitting there. They also had an area set up with an Instagramable photo wall and a DJ booth. The restaurant itself was very clean and they also had a full bar. I will definitely come back to try some other authentic menu options.
