Wow! just wow! I rarely leave a restaurant truly blown away by the experience. I'm not exaggerating…read morewhen I say this place truly expanded my palette. The flavours are so delicate and one would not even think to pair certain items. The chef captured perfectly the diversity of the African / Caribbean diaspora. The food makes me so proud. Remarkable. The decor was tasteful and we immediately felt at ease when we walked in. The colour scheme and layout creates a chill vibe and music was perfect . Relaxed yet attentive staff. The portions are so massive that it's one of those rare occasions where I would actually recommend they give less food. It's just too much. Mind you, we were travelling back home the next day so ordered quite a bit. But even one dish each would have been a lot. I don't understand how one could live or be near Montreal and not stop what they are doing and come here for lunch / dinner. This must be a top 100 restaurant in Canada. How could it not be ? From the accra, the fresh watercress salad and slaw to the succulent fried chicken , savoury red snapper. I couldn't get enough of the variety of rices they provided ( Haitian , Jamaican etc). It was just all so mouthwatering. People this place is beyond the real deal. They set a standard of how all restaurants should be in showcasing the absolute best. Palme accomplishes the trifecta of stellar cuisine , service and ambience. Read my review while enjoying your meal here and you'll see it is the gospel! I wish Decades of success to the owners. Well done !

The pre fixe menu for the MTLatable had a lot of options and we were glad most of the options were gluten free. I had the Conch Gratin which was good but was a huge portion so more bread would have been needed as I didn't want to eat it right off of the spoon. My friend got the jerk shrimp which were very fishy smelling and tasing and just alright. Our entrees were the star of the night - the Grilled Fish and the Vegan Curry. For the dessert the server recommended the Pina Colada which was tasty but basically coconut ice cream with a pineapple. The service was very slow despite it not being very busy on the snowy night. We had to flag down a server just to order drinks after waiting for a while. There was a large birthday party - they were the only other clients - and they seemed to be taking all the time and attention of the staff.

When we told him it wasn't what we ordered - he sincerely apologized and told us to keep it free of charge and made us the Poutine that we ordered. That was nice customer service on his part. Both entrees were so good!! It's a small take out spot but they did have one table to sit and dine in. This is a go-to spot. I highly recommend.

The goat, lamb, and oxtail were absolutely out of this world, flavorful, tender, and perfectly executed. Huge shoutout to the bartender as well, as he clearly knows exactly what he is doing and crafts excellent drinks. Unfortunately, the table service was subpar and dragged the experience down. Our server was highly inattentive, left us waiting for long stretches, and never introduced herself. She also missed the opportunity to see if we wanted another round of drinks once dinner arrived. Most disappointing of all, they completely looked past the note on our reservation about celebrating my mother's birthday. Go for the incredible food, but the front of house service needs a lot of work.

Before checking out a theatre show, the family decided to eat at Mango Bay for dinner. They've been…read morea few times to get their Caribbean fix. It's located upstairs on the second floor, above N sur Mackay and next door to Garage Beirut. We dropped in on a Saturday evening (around 6:00pm) with a group of 11. No one was there. The inside looks like it's been converted from an old apartment. There's only one waitress and she was slooooow. She did continuously bring out water jugs for us but go up to pay when you're ready to leave, it'll be faster. The menu is split into appetizers, salads, seafood, main courses, house specialties, burgers & wraps, roti, table d'hote and desserts. Their house specialties (like jerk chicken and curry goat) are pricey ($19.95). - Stew chicken ($12.95) - chicken slowly cooked in a rich homemade gravy. I went with the stewed chicken; tender but salty. Rice and peas were dry and a tad bland. Best thing was the plantains (sweet and tender) and the carrots. - Negril chicken ($14.49) - char grilled chicken breast marinated and cooked in a sweet and spicy Caribbean spice. One relative found it "spicy". - Curry goat roti ($10.49) - my mom went with the goat; tasty and with a good bite. Oddly, they put in pieces that have bones in it. Roti itself was strangely dry. - Grilled salmon ($19.95) - char grilled salmon seasoned with Caribbean spices. Didn't find anything special about MB. Pricey for what you get, especially with so many other quality spots nearby.

I wrote a review for Mango Bay's previous location on Bishop street about 2 years back, it's…read morecertainly nice to see them move and re-open. Some places will never survive like this. Location - On Rue MacKay between Rene Levesque and Ste. Catherine, close to Metro Guy-Concordia. Not a conspicious place - near a mosque and upstairs from a Korean restaurant. The restaurant is on the second floor of a townhouse with stairs only, if you have mobility issues, you might want to look elsewhere (or get delivery). The townhouse is elegantly decorated by the owner with some of his personal momentos. If you look inside the corner trophy case you'll see jewelry for sale by local Jamaican artisans. Service - A bit slow - it looks like only the owner (Aubrey) is manning the helm on a Friday lunch hour - He was doing the cooking, serving the tables, mixing the drinks, settling the bills and etc. When we stopped by at noon there was no one there except a gentleman who seemed to be there to pick something up - he mentioned that the owner is here and at the kitchen. We sat down and waited about 10 minutes. Then another set of customers showed up. Then Aubrey showed up and greeted us. In about 5 minutes the drinks were served, and within 15 we have food on our table. Throughout the meal Aubrey will be dealing with the other customers, the takeout orders, and basically checking in on us once in awhile. We shared a laugh or 2. The food - I had the brown stew chicken (served with plantains, Jamaican sweet potatoes, and rice with peas), and my wife had the Chicken Roti (no sides). The brown stew chicken is good, but the sauce is not as thick and hearty as its Brooklyn counterparts. The Roti was solid with a good solid Jamaican curry gravy and bits of potatoes throughout. The plantains were sweet, thick rounds, browned on each side but not greasy. The sweet potatoes were good, and the rice and peas have a hint of coconut and nutmeg to them. The Drinks - I went with Sorrel (Hisbiscus tea with ginger) - sweet and spicy with the nutmeg-ginger kick. My wife ordered Ting (Jamaican Grapefruit soda). Value - I paid about 15/person for a lunch meal with drinks included -it's about what you would expect for a sit-down place downtown. It's a solid Jamaican place that matches the quality of decent ones in Toronto or Flatbush (Brooklyn). There are other Jamaican shops in town (2 in C-d-N (not near the Metro) and one in ParkEx, and 2 near Centre-Ville, with one just up the block from the Musee du Art Contemporaire), but this one is pretty good. I'll go back again.
