We got stuck once or twice, but the main lady was super helpful and we joked our way through it just fine! The ambiance is cool, tranquil, and easy to relax.

I ordered a veggie patty on this day, and since I've had some great callaloo/mixed veggie patties before, I was looking forward to trying this. What I got was a HOLLOW patty. I am not exaggerating, there were 4 peas and 3 green beans inside. No sauce, no seasoning, nothing but pastry. The jerk chicken was blander than I remembered, not to mention they forgot my extra sauce on the side and the meat was undercooked. Sad to say, Montreal is a lot more limited in Jamaican restaurants than previously thought.

I went for lunch after reading about it as one of the top Cheap Eats in Montreal. Took the metro, got off at Plamondon and walk about 3 blocks to the restaurant. There is a set of steep stairs to get to the restaurants, so be aware of that. I walked in and saw the menu on display on a digital screen, so I approached the register saying that I wanted a goat dish and some rice...the guy said, you would be better off getting the plate, which comes with plantain (1), salad and a tuber side...so I said, sure. The food was very nice...the goat was tender and well seasoned.... a bit salty for my taste but definitely good tasting. Only one lone plantain on top of the cup of seasoned rice. Nice staff.

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.
