The food here was ok. Tried the coconut rice, jerk chicken, plantains and veggie dumplings. The portions are a really good size as well, you could feed two on one entree. The coconut rice and jerk chicken were ok. Plantains were good, but I would't bother to get the veggie dumplings again. Tasted store bought and the sauce it was in wasn't complimentary, it needed soy sauce instead.
I tried to bring my husband to dine in for Father’s Day weekend and the hours of operation are incorrect. There was absolutely no one in sight and the place is closed. There’s no hours listed on the storefront meanwhile all of the other restaurants on the same strip are up and running. A gentleman finally saw a staff member and instead of her rude self communicating with the customers she’s busy waving. Clearly! we know the restaurant is closed, how about instead of waving, have some common courtesy to let the customers know what time you will be open.
This was my first time at Cafe Mobay and I was very disappointed. I ordered the mac and cheese, oxtail with coconut rice, and jerk chicken with rice and peas. The portions were small considering the price. I waited 65mins.The food lacked flavor, the only seasoning that seemed to be used was salt..no other flavor. The oxtail was mostly bone, the coconut rice bland, jerk chicken was not spicy, mac and cheese was salty. I gave the 1 star because the decorations in the restaurant are beautiful but the food I would pass on.
The food was absolutely delicious. For starters, I had the vegetable dumplings and for the entrée I had curry goat stew with white rice and candied yams!! Omgoodness, my tastes buds were very satisfied. Our waitress was a sweet young young lady who happens to be the owner's daughter. I also liked the fact that we were the only patrons dining in, on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and the food was made to order...nice n' hot, fresh and flavorful. We will most certainly be back. It is a BYOB establishment, so bring your finest wine along with you. ?
Always excellent food! Tasty, fresh and made to order. Every single time we’ve ordered from this restaurant the food has been excellent. Highly recommended! Support local businesses. And this one deserves all the support!!!
So good. Everything was a hit, cornbread, yucca puffs, jerk wings, rice and peas, oxtail, peach cobbler. All of it was honestly delicious. Service was also great. Rare five star review.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I've been a local around this area for many years and always passed this Jamaican restaurant. FINALLY my curiosity was put to rest....Today I had my first sit down dinner and everything was absolutely exquisite! The service was just as excellent (s/o to Lenny) for the great conversation and company. I ordered the Southern Hush Puppies, Braised Oxtail w/ rice, peas, cabbage, Whiting Fish Fillet w/ Mac and cheese, cabbage, and a side of Collard Greens. If you never had food before, then please check out this lovely place. You're stomach will be happily filled and your tastebuds will seriously thank you. No doubt about it! Definitely will be returning. #SupportLocal #HappyFoodDanceActivated
Monday nite, not a usual epicurean's time for eating out. Found Cafe Mobay on Broad steet by Holsteins delightful and delicious... My 3rd x here. Last time outdoor lunch. Never disappoints. Fresh food, nicely balanced entree of veg, starch n protein. the jerk chicken appy was delicious, shared by 2. Sauce fresh, tasty, not overbearing. White fish fried, not at all greasy with collards n mac n cheese... perfection. salmon portion, with spinich n tator, generous, fresh, sauce excellent. collards n spinich perfect. Highly recommend. Everything on the menu was something i wanted to try... which never happens to this italian! From ox tail to burger, curry to avocado toast... great selection.Atmosphere sleek n clean. Vibe felt it perfect for a private party. Local Chef Smith friendly and obviously knows quality... Sunday brunch ad looked intriguing.. 11 to 3. . byob. Comfort, but classy. Relaxed but upbeat. Date nite, quick bite, party, take out... I can see myself making this a weekly go to. I left feeling great! Bravo... a gem in Bloomfield.
My husband loves this place I tried their tofu bowl. It was unbelievably good I loved it
Great food! Been here twice and both times the food was satisfying. I ordered fried fish, Mac & cheese, and cabbage. Delicious ? Oh and a mango lemonade. Will definitely go here again.
