This has to be one of the best Caribbean restaurants around--miles and miles ahead of many places I've tried. Everything I had was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and clearly prepared with care. You can tell there is someone in the kitchen who truly understands Caribbean cooking. The flavors, seasoning, and authenticity came through in every bite. It tasted like real home-style Caribbean food made by someone who knows the culture and traditions behind the cuisine. Now the inside is just a typical café so don't come in there with any high expectations like rolled silverware or fine glass. I got the jerk, chicken, mac & cheese, and collard greens. All of it was bomb. It was definitely hitting on all 10. Great food, great flavors, and a true appreciation for Caribbean cooking. I'll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for an authentic Caribbean experience. read more

Rose's Caribbean Restaurant - Jerk Chicken (Med) - Caribbean Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

I've been going back and the food has been fresh and delicious. Oxtails, jerk chicken and plantain are my fave.

I came here when I was in Columbus for a military event at the National Infantry Museum. I was so excited, as I had heard great things about Rose's. This place has great, authentic Jamaican food. The service was awesome. We were greeted when we walked in, and the young lady was very patient with us while we decided what to order. We ordered beef patties, Jerk chicken (bone-in), and oxtail. We had jerk rice and mac & cheese as the sides. Others in our party got some plantains and Caribbean cabbage with her boneless curry chicken. Everything was so good and fresh. The wait was not long. The chicken and oxtails were seasoned so well. We got large orders, and there was so much food. The meats were juicy, and the flavor was abundant. We go to Columbus every year for a weekend event, and I will make sure to visit Rose's every time. read more

Listennnn!!!!! I wish you could see the video instead of screenshots! I visited Rose's location in the mall food court and when I tell you I LIVE!!! Yes, I ordered 3 of the hottest items on the menu for myself (oxtails with a side of collards, jerk chicken with , a side of Mac & cabbage, & Pasta). Would have been 4 but it was close to closing and the beef patties were sold out lol From the price/portion to the seasonings, to the customer service & love, Rose's better be your first stop when you're in the Columbus area. You will NOT regret it!! I'm full all over again just reminiscing about this amazing meal!! read more

This place has great food and the staff is friendly and attentive. It's so good, they often sell out so get your order in!

So glad I finally made it to Rose's! Saw it on an episode of True South, and it was worth the trip! Had the boneless jerk chicken, peas & rice, collards, and Caribbean mac. Ordered a chicken patty as well. For $13, it was a bag full of food. Jerk chicken was tender and juicy, with a great flavor (plus an afterburn of heat). The food is great and I see they're opening a food truck! The location is a little hard to find at first, but now that I know, I will be back! read more

Patties taste like cornmeal. Macaroni has no flavor at all. Oxtail had way too much fat on it. It may sound harsh but it's the truth. Mercy's is 10x better. read more

I haven't had a huge share of Caribbean food in my life. Some when on Caribbean cruises or in the Miami area. Jeremy had heard on base that Rose's was THE one to try in Columbus. It's in a strip mall just a few blocks from the fort. Service was polite and friendly. Offering to help describe any menu items. The oxtail plate was rich, but the meat very fatty. The curry chicken plate had tender meat that fell of the bone. Both dishes needed salt. In fact, even the sides needed some salt. Sweet potatoes were delicious. The cabbage ok. The fried rice was the best side. This isn't a fancy spot. Plenty of parking. read more

We're in town, from California. My son and his gf, recommended this place. It's a literal hole in the wall, and it's amazing! The food was hot as in the temperature, it was so good! I wanted to pick up that oxtail and wanted to suck on it, but I kept my composure. It was empty when we walked in, around noon, but as soon as we ordered and sat, there was a line. The service was friendly and prompt. I had oxtail, with jerk fried rice, and plantains, my hubby had jerk pork, jerk rice, and plantains, same as our friend, and my son had the pasta. All was so good! I definitely recommended. read more

Fire. Pretty much everything was on point. I ordered a jerk patty sandwich for the first time ever... and mannn I've been sleep. I always order them separate. But together.. whoa. Nevertheless. The patty has amazing flavor, the crust was soft, warm, and flaky. The coco bread was light, fluffy, and overall was perfect. I also ordered the greens as well. They were cooked perfectly as well. Not as much flavor as I'm accustomed to but still good. They were firm but tender. They also let me sample the jerk chicken which was cooked perfectly and seasoned to a t. It was just a bit spicy for my pallet. However, if you can handle it, it's definitely worth a try. 5/5 They deserve all of their good ratings, and the customer service was great as well. Very friendly and patient. I'll definitely be back and recommend to anyone in the Columbus area. read more

You won't leave anything left on the plate here. Everything is delicious. Chicken patties, coco bread, fried plantains, goat roti...etc ...etc...etc. One year we had them jerk a turkey for thanksgiving. It was wonderful!!! Pricing is reasonable and it is well worth it. They continue to provide wonderful food and great service for many years. Thank you Rose and Joyce read more

I had the large veggie plate. Cabbages, curry chickpeas, yam rice and peas. Everything was great, service was great. Will definitely go back!! read more

I have never been spoken to in the manner in which the owner spoke to me about a refund for the food that didn't agree with my family it made us sick to our stomachs the owner says her doctor told her it takes 24hrs for food poisoning to show up and for us to take it to court and all that was so unnecessary and called for and very embarrassing with other customers in the restaurant the customer being right has no place in her business as I asked her kindly to lower her attitude cause I didn't have one with her she told me to get my doctors and lawyer see her in court with hers pretty much what she told me to do and then I left words that I'm not proud of two wrongs don't make it right however be aware of the private owned businesses you go to cause they govern by their own merit and $79 of my money went town the toilet ( literally ) and figuratively I hate to do this to a black owned business however we as black owned businesses have to do better by the customers also #NeverAgain #BadBusiness read more

Super friendly people and great good. Looks like it's more of a carry-out clientele but they did have tables. Jerk chicken, sweet potatoes, black-eye peas and green beans were all perfect. I passed on Key Lime pound cake for some reason but want to go back for that. read more

The food is very over priced. It seems as if the restaurant's main concern is sells. The taste and quality of food could be a lot better. The restaurant being the only Caribbean spot in town leave no choice for many. read more

Great Caribbean food in a strip center location, near Ft Benning. In fact, the menu posted has a sign that says "We close at xx, or until the last soldier is fed". The food is terrific, if you love Caribbean flavor. Jerk Chicken and Pork seem the most popular, but there are also ribs, curries and other things to sample. For the sides, don't miss the yams, as they are sublime. My son loved the Mac n cheese, but neither he nor I are big into collards, but it looked like a tasty option. Each meal is made from scratch, so it does take a long time, one of the drawbacks of getting good food. Service is very friendly and you will feel at home in no time. The dining room is minimalist, so feel free to call ahead and schedule takeout. read more

In spite of the price, the food was on point. The accents went well with the service and made you feel like you was genuinely in the Caribbean. It seemed to be a very popular spot, which made me want to enjoy the food in the comfort of my own home. But it was more of a reason to "Eat like No on was watching." read more

My fiancé and I went just before closing and she welcomed us in even though her door was locked shut for the night. So sweet. I believe she could have been the owner. She made us big plates and the jerk chicken was amazing. Also tried the cakes. read more

OH MY GOODNESS! Had the pleasure of dining at this eatery and let me tell you something! Ms Rose's food is cooked with Jamaican soul! I had the bone in jerk chicken, jerk fried rice, collard greens and plantains. It was so delicious! The flavors took you all the way back to Jamaca mon. That first taste will put you in a state of solace! LOL! I'm visiting from Texas not even thinking I would get Carribean cuisine this good? I would not have believed it. People of Columbus, do yourself a favor and come visit Rose's! You'll be so glad you did. A very welcoming place. They had all the drinks from Jamaica as well. You'll love it trust me! read more

I paid 48 dollars and some change I normally don't complain but this is by far one of the worst place I've ever eaten had curry goat food was really dry and I had jerk pasta which had been microwaved upon my arrival i called to complain the young lady on the phone had the worst attitude.dont think I'll ever return read more

Ms. Rose is one of the sweetest and gentlest soul I know. Her motto is to be open until the last soldier/person is fed and she stands by that. The food is excellent and so is the service. Never had an issue. My family has been eating here for many years and will continue to. Rices and peas, jerk chicken, cabbage, beef Pattie's and don't forget the plantains. Delicious!! Much more to choose from also. Mrs. Mac. read more

False advertising, small portions and not authentic Caribbean food. Will not be revisiting this establishment.

Amazing food and service! Had oxtail with rice and red beans and with double plantains. Also had a slice of rum cake and ugh chefs kiss on it all. I had tried this spot before and it was okay, I don't know if it's a new chef or what but they definitely turned it up. 5/5 read more

I was in the ER in Columbus I didn't have anything to eat that day I called this wonderful, amazing restaurant. Spoke to the daughter (please forgive me I forgot her name) of the owner. When I say OUTSTANDING SERVICE. I truly mean it. I visited this wonderful establishment in November 2022 for the first time & I knew I was coming back to GA in December and I kept my word to eat from Rose's again. When I called the restaurant I put in my order & paid. Even though they were closing soon, my food was delivered by the daughter to me in the ER. Every time I come to visit I will make it my priority to eat from this restaurant as they're my ONLY & FAVORITE Carribbean Restaurant in GA. Great atmosphere & vibes. read more

I didn't eat here but listen to why. I stopped in excited to get some Caribbean food. There was a young lady at the register playing with her hair using her talons. She wasn't warm and inviting, literally just looked at us as we walked in. We didn't hear nor smell any cooking in the background. The only food we saw was a baking sheet with some "jerk" wings that looked like they had been sitting there. We picked up menus to check it out anyway and asked her if they had everything on the menu. NOPE! Half of the menu they didn't even have. Completely turned off from eating there after all this. So needless to say, we left, never to return. read more
