    Oxtail
    Natasha L.

    Reggae Reggae Vibes is my go to for Jamaican food on the go. The flavors hit every time, and it always seems to satisfy my Caribbean food cravings. I make sure to always stop here whenever I'm in Philly to take home. Just a heads up - this place isn't very quick, and there is usually always a wait.

    This place has been on my to-try list for a while. As I was walking down the street, I stopped to look at the menu. I didn't realize I'd stopped in front of the ordering window. When a man opened the door, I took that as my sign that I needed to try it TODAY. I ordered a curry chicken platter with kale and collards and with rice and peas. The greens were my favorite; I ate them all right away. They used smoked turkey instead of pork to flavor them, which I prefer. I had enough chicken and rice/peas left for a second meal. The chicken was tender and falling off the bone. Rice and peas were good. I look forward to trying more from the menu - especially the weekend specials.

    Oxtail Cheesesteak
    Angela G.

    I order from this place alot. I get the Friday special BBQ beef short rib platter, and have called it my usual. I now have a new usual. The Oxtail cheesesteak is so good, if I was going to curse in joy about how good something is, it would be on here. You get a lot of meat and no bones on the cheesesteak, its so delicious. Now the price on their menu is $18, but be careful cause on Uber Eats it's charging $24. On their Online ordering website its $20. Just call and go pick it up for the least expensive way. And if you don't eat beef, their fall off the bone chicken cheesesteak is so good too. It's $13 on their menu, $15 on Uber Eats, and $13 on their Online Ordering. So it's a really good less expensive alternative if you want chicken rather than beef. Also for the picture, the roll is a bit soggy cause of the oxtail and cause I opened it after a half hour car ride so keep that in mind, and I had only lightly toasted my roll.

    Some of the best Jamaican food I've had in Pennsylvania. Even ordering right before closing their food did not disappoint. Aside from the patties and the jerk chicken being awesome, the yams were phenomenal. Not too sweet, with just enough spices. Be sure to try the lemon poundcake also, didn't get a picture, but it was delicious.

    Boston Jerk Chicken with Kale and Collard Greens and Fried Plantains

    Was craving Jamaican food while on my work trip in Philadelphia. Ordered this place off GrubHub and was not disappointed. I wish I would've known of it sooner!! The chicken was so good and the side of jerk sauce slapped! It was so spicy and garlicky. I absolutely loved it!!! It's nice to order from a place that doesn't automatically do rice as a side - I got the collards and plantains. The greens were the perfect texture and seasoning; not hard or over cooked at all. The plantains were sweet and were really good in the jerk sauce. I may order from here again before I leave next week.

    Montego Bay Oxtails Stew with a side of Steam Cabbage
    Joann W.

    I've tried this place at least 6 times over the past 3 years, so a review is overdue! Bomb food with friendly service. They are take out only but there's a couple tables on the curb. I've had their jerk chicken before and it was good. I personally don't prefer chicken. Oxtail is my go-to! Price has increased significantly, but I think it's still worth it to treat myself once in a while. Montego Bay Oxtails Stew with candied yams and Mac n cheese, along with a side of Steam Cabbage was 5/5. Don't walk, run to reggae reggae! Another fave was their jerk cheese fries (not pictured). OMGGGG. Whoever thought of jerk sauce on cheese fries, give that person a raise! Love that they packed the fries, jerk sauce, and cheese individually. I was able to airfry the fries to heat & crisp up before tossing in jerk sauce then pour cheese over. YUMMMM. Lastly, we tried their RRV Full House Hamburger and it was dry. We needed to add condiments at home. I would skip this. Overall, I rec!! Oxtail + jerk cheese fries yasss

    Veggie Wrap
    Alena B.

    I got the veggie wrap with cabbage because they ran out of callalloo and it was soooooo good. I've never had a wrap with plantain in it. Great vegetarian/vegan option.

    Jerk Chicken
    Daniela D.

    This spot never misses. If you're looking for good Jamaican food, this is the spot to go to. The jerk chicken is a fave of mine and the Mac and cheese is SO good. Def recommend!

    Just wondering if the restaurant has any vegan items. Maybe a veggie patty? Or rice and beans? Thanks!!

    While they have side dishes that appear to be vegan, I am unsure of their cooking method/oil use to ensure they are actually vegan

Oxtails taste sweet and needed salt and the right base for the sauce..was lacking the appropriate flavor profile. The rice tasted like basmati which is cool for Indian cuisines but usually with dishes like Oxtails or Jerk Chicken I'd expect red beans and white grain rice cooked in coconut milk for the flavor profile. Mussels are delicious, they just don't give you a lot of them if you go during any of their prefixed menu offerings. Coconut shrimp are good. Carrot cake was one of the best I've tasted in a long time. Even if your not a fan of carrot cake I think you'll enjoy. There weren't big chunks of fruit or nuts inside. It was layered, fluffy, moist, cream cheese icing spot on, just really spot on. I could have ordered a cake to go and left the food. Drinks are pricey for what you get in return. Some of the drinks are watered down, like their "Sex on the Boat." They give it to you in this cute boat shaped dish with a straw with flashing lights (photo/vid attached) but there's a ton of ice and not much alcohol or flavor. You also have to wait for your entire party before ordering appetizers. Very strange to me. Most places will allow you to order drinks and appetizers while you wait for the rest of your party. Also be mindful that there's an 18% charge for credit card. If that bothers you be prepared to bring cash. They typically will only allow you to split the check two ways so for larger parties it's best to bring cash to avoid confusion when everyone is paying for themselves.

So my brother and I decided to head over to see if what I heard was true. I'm happy to report, it was very very good! Some things to note: They take cash only. They have an ATM inside just in case, but make sure you have cash only you before you go. Make sure you pay attention when traveling to this establishment, as there are many intersections, one way streets, and streets that go from two to one lane. Also, there may be someone who will ask you to get them some food. Once we parked the car, we heard the reggae music coming from their front door. You can't miss it. The menu is on the wall, as well as being taped down to the counter by the order window. If they're out of something they will let you know before you order. When I went they were out of oxtail (a highly sought after dish in Caribbean cuisine). I had the jerk chicken with collard greens, white rice, and macaroni and cheese. My brother ordered the fried whiting, but I guess she didn't hear him correctly (trust me the music there is quite loud inside even though it's even louder outside), because he got the same thing I did. Now, we drove home, the car smelling amazing, and I forgot to take some photos for this review. But even so, I will definitely be back. The food was excellent, the prices were decent, and the service was fast. If you're looking for an adventure, check out Jamaican D's!

When I ate the food later on, everything was absolutely delicious. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely order again! Inside, there are a few TVs, and you order at the counter even if sitting in for a meal. Looks clean and cozy enough, and I would imagine fairly crowded at the right times, but I was there mid/late afternoon, so I only saw one table w/ a customer eating. I wouldn't be opposed to it sometime other than having to pay for parking!

I preferred to sit outside, so I was eventually able to grab a table and a menu. It took a little while for someone to bring water and utensils. By the time they came over, I was already ready to order. I ordered the bistec encebollado and was impressed by the portion size! they give you a generous amount of steak. Unfortunately, the steak had quite a bit of fat around it, which isn't my favorite. When the food arrived, the rice was packed into a small cup, which made me think everything would be served hot. Unfortunately, none of the food was warm. Everything was room temperature and lacked flavor. Because it took a while for my meal to arrive, I got the impression that it may have been sitting out before being served. I ate it as it was because I didn't want to wait any longer. Taste-wise, the steak needed more seasoning, although the beans were good. Overall, the meal was average. After finishing, I asked for both a to-go box and the check. About 10 minutes later, the check arrived, but no box. One employee, William, really stood out. Whenever he stopped by, he was attentive, friendly, and on top of things. I appreciated his service and how proactive he was in checking on guests. Overall, the service had some delays, the food temperature was disappointing, and the flavors were underwhelming, not sure if I'll try this place again.

The jerk chicken was very undercooked. It was all red inside, once I took a bite. I almost vomited. The plantains were hard as a rock, not sweet at all.

When I opened the container, it was all watery looking thing, I don't know how else to explain it, but it was more like soup that potato salad.
