My cousin and I came because I was craving some Caribbean food and the other spot that was…read morerecommended happened to be closed. I had already been eyeing this place because of the positive reviews, so it worked out perfectly. We arrived around 7:20, and since they close at 8, I was hoping they wouldn't be too low on the options we wanted. Thankfully, they still had most of what we were looking for. We ended up ordering three oxtail plates (which a couple behind us seemed unhappy about, but honestly, they should have come earlier) and one stew chicken plate. I can't compare the oxtail to other places in Georgia, but it was tasty, satisfying, and the portions were reasonable. Have I had better? Definitely. I've had versions with more flavor, more gravy, and rice that was seasoned on its own. The rice here was decent, but it tasted even better once you mixed in the oxtail gravy. I'd probably skip the coco bread next time, though. Overall, the food was very good, and I'd happily come back the next time I visit Georgia. The lady who helped us was pleasant, and so was the gentleman who came out to assist her. I don't buy into that idea that the food is only good if the staff has an attitude. I've had amazing food with great service plenty of times, and this was one of those experiences. The restaurant is next to a gas station, which threw me off at first, but it's its own separate spot. There are a few tables inside if you want to dine in, but we got our food to go. Since it was close to closing time, I'm not sure if the dine-in area closes a bit earlier. I'd definitely recommend checking them out if you haven't been before and want to try some Caribbean food.

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.

Service was fine and timely. This was my first visit, tried ordering jerk chicken but they were out…read moreso I ordered jerk ribs instead. My meal totaled about $25 which I thought was fair for a large dinner and a side of Mac and cheese. The portions were hearty which was a plus! The ribs were really good, mildly spicy with a smoked flavor! Came with four full bones. Sauce on the side was good as well, I'd definitely order again. 8.5/10 for ribs I was NOT a fan of the rice and peas, they were different than what I'm used to and seriously lacked flavor, not authentic at all. 5/10 because the texture was at least good. Cabbage was fine, nothing to write home about. It wasn't mushy or anything but slightly overcooked and also lacked flavor. 5/10 The Mac and cheese tasted better than it looked in my opinion lol I was expecting a solid, possibly baked mac and cheese but theirs is extremely soupy and heavily seasoned (garlic taste is strong). I received a great sized for $6.25 so no complaint there. I'd rate the Mac 7/10. I'd order again but I'd probably swap the rice for Mac instead which I believe is only a $2.50 Upcharge I will return to try the jerk chicken! Overall, I liked the food I just didn't LOVE it. I almost loved the ribs but I'd still return.

Silany's is located in a plaza near a Publix shopping center. It is in the adjacent area allowing for its own parking. Restaurant is quaint, with enough seating at booths and tables, to accommodate parties of varying sizes. I was greeted upon entry, and given a menu that listed lunch and dinner selections. Everything looked appetizing! I selected the cabrit, which is the Haitian Creole word for goat. The dinner meal came with two sides; the dinner comes with one side. I selected the djon djon rice and green fried plantain. Would have liked a few more pieces of plantain as experienced at other Haitian restaurants. Overall pleased as the meal was delicious, and the amount received allowed for 2 additional meals.
