Reviews
Our favorite is the Mahi. It’s blackened with a mango slaw, sitting over cilantro lime rice in a curry based sauce.
Jerk chicken meal: PROS: the chicken was cooked perfectly. 10/10. The jerk sauce was incredible! I wish the meal came with more than the small cup that came on the side. 1000/10. CONS: the rice and beans was mushy and lacked flavor. Reminded me of Zatarain’s boxed rice. 2/10. Veggies were cooked and flavored very nicely but the portion was extremely small. I’m talking two spoonfuls. For $23, I can’t justify purchasing this meal again but I’d definitely order the chicken as a stand alone item if they offered it, which I was told it is not.
Crab cake: 3/10. My crab cake was mushy and not cooked through. I’m 9 months pregnant and I didn’t want to risk getting sick so I just trashed it. However, the marinated tomatoes were delicious, as well as the avocado sauce served on the side.
Pineapple cake: 6/10. The flavors were great but this cake was clearly stale. The texture of the cake was dry and crumbly but the caramel sauce tasted great.
Overall, there is definitely room for improvement, but I don’t see myself returning. The price doesn’t match the portions or quality. $12 for one undercooked crab cake and $7 for one slice of stale cake is unacceptable. I’ll stick to my spot in Glen park to satisfy my jerk cravings.
Chose 2 appetizers, Fried Plantains and (of course) Jerk Wings! I have discovered that I have a great fondness of plantains, thanks to other establishments, Velero’s, Cisco’s, and Cool Runnings, to name a few and Montego Bay’s did not disappoint, and perhaps were the best I’ve had. They are paired with a caramel drizzle which basically makes the appetizer a pre-dinner dessert, and it’s excellent ! The wings were very good also, the char made the flavors pop!
Our server was excellent, though the sole individual covering all the patrons she was attentive and most helpful.
My wife narrowed her choice down to the “Chef’s Signature Jerk Style Pork”. Very good, nice tender and well prepared. Vegetables were excellent as well, she would have liked to have a bit stronger flavor from the red beans and rice.
I wanted the pork as well but figured I could try her’s so I went with the “Chef’s Signature Jerk Style Chicken” instead. An entire ½ of the bird! I completed enjoyed the grilled veggies. However, I quite enjoyed the more subtle flavor of the red beans and rice, sort of a palate cleanser between the richness of the other flavors.
Portions of both our dinners exceeded expectations!
And who could resist scratch made Pineapple Upside-down Cake for dessert, well, not us. The wife of the owner made them that day and was in the process of bringing them in when we wanted to order. Came to the table still warm! The cake was dense, like pound cake with a very pleasant crunchy bottom (was the top in baking) and the rum caramel sauce was just….. wowzer! However I did miss the walnuts and caramelized layer with the pineapple slice, but it was still very good!
Everything was magnificent. The caramel dipping sauce, for the plantains is mouthwatering. A must have. Plenty of options to choose from, you won’t be disappointed.
We can wait to go back.
