MBY Jamaican Cuisine INC. - Powder Springs, Georgia

I’m beyond disappointed after my second visit to MBY Jamaican Cuisine .My first experience was fantastic—everything from the food to the service was impeccable. I had a small goat plate with cabbage, and it was sizzling hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. I believe the older lady, who seemed to be the owner, prepared it herself, and it was a memorable meal.

Unfortunately, my experience today was nothing short of a letdown. The service was terrible. A mid-aged woman with a very dry attitude served me, and it was clear that she was not interested in providing any level of care or hospitality. To make matters worse, the curry goat I was served was nothing like what I had before. It looked like scraps, had no steam or freshness to it, and was lukewarm—definitely not the $25 meal I was expecting.

I left feeling completely ripped off and very disappointed. This was a huge contrast to my first visit, and I won't be returning anytime soon.

Preparing for my return flight and wanted to take home some Oxtails, rice and peas, plantains and some frozen beef patties. Googled one place which turned out to be a food truck that only served my desired meal on the weekends. I ended up at MBY Jamaican Cuisine in Brownsville Crossing where my request was filled. Yasmin took my order and was very friendly throughout my visit. My order included a large order of Oxtails, rice & peas, cabbage, plantains, 2 cooked beef patties with coco bread and 6 frozen beef patties with coco bread. It was about 25 minutes before my order was ready. The Oxtails were tender but cooked in a gravy that wasn’t appetizing. The rice and peas offered a variety of vegetables that aren’t normally included and there were 3 sliced plantains placed atop a generous amount of rice & peas. The restaurant had a constant flow of customers. At least five walk in customers ordered either the beef or curry chicken patties. The best part of my meal was the beef patty and coco bread. There’s a sign at the counter which reads… No returns and no refunds 🤔 Could it be partly because of the gravy?

Absolute flavor. We've enjoyed awakening our tastebuds.
We've tried oxtails, curry goat, and curry chicken. Think the goat was best bit all was terrific.
Don't understand the reviews... must be a not so nice competitor

Just moved to this area about a month ago and was looking for authentic Jamican food. I was craving curry goat. I went in and the woman that served me was so nice. I asked for a sample she was so nice and gave it to me. It was so good so full of flavor. I am a loyal customer from here on out!!!

Found this by surprise while driving home from Blairsville. Great variety & flavor. We ordered the chicken curry and jerk chicken. Both delicious, authentic. Hope to return.

My family tried this establishment for the first time and its official. This was a another TikTok disaster unveiled. For starters, we ordered online to have DoorDash delivery and the oxtail plate we purchased did not specify what sides came with the oxtails so I ended up ordering double sides and being charged for them. Secondly, the quality of the food was horrifying at best. We ordered the oxtail plate with rice and peas and cabbage, also a side of jerk chicken, and an extra order of plantains. The oxtails were somewhat tender and swimming in a pool of what tasted like brown water with absolutely no flavor. The rice and peas tasted just as flavorless as if they were cooked in the same swamp water as the oxtails. The cabbage was average at best with little to no flavor as well. The jerk chicken was a dry joke with no punchline, not even a hint of the grill and no jerk sauce whatsoever on the dried pieces of chicken. The cabbage was average. Was little to no flavoring and the plantains were under ripe and overcooked. Not a one good plantain in sight. I struggled to give this restaurant two stars that felt a little too kind , however, don't let my review stop you. Check out their menu, visit their establishment and let me know what you think. Don't take my word for it. As for me personally, me and my family will not be supporting this level of poor quality Caribbean food it was actually worse than Golden krust which is pretty low on the fast food. Totem pole of Caribbean food. 😠😤🤢🤢🤢

We went to MBY for dinner to celebrate father day and bday with my husband. We had the curry goat, bbq chicken, and jerk chicken. We also tried the mild beef, spinach and cheese and curry chicken patties. All the dinners come with cabbage, rice and bean and plantains. The goat was cooked perfect with a stew like rendering. The bbq chicken was falling off the bone and so was the jerk chicken. The rice and beans have a fantastic flavor and the plantains were soft and cooked just right. The patties are to die for flaky on the outside and delicious on the inside. This was our first time and will def NOT be out last. You have gained a customer for life

I’ve been eating here for over 15 years. Even after moving years ago, I still order and have it delivered. They give you generous portions. I love the tender cabbage. I’ve had all their dishes, and my favorite is brown stew chicken-the gravy is so good. I don’t believe the negative reviews. I’ve eaten their food over 100 times and it never has disappointed me. Thank you for feeding me your delicious food all these years!
