Order via DoorDash. Food was very good. The jerk chicken and jerk fried rice were both excellent. I got 2 meals out of the order. Mac and cheese wasn't my favorite. It was spicy and had peppers in it. Some may love it. Red velvet cake was awesome.

Don't get me wrong, the food was good, but I didn't get what I ordered. I ordered stewed chicken and the woman gave me curry chicken. The service was horrible & in true Jamaican fashion, the lady thanked the male customer ahead of me and with me, she just handed me my bag with her face turned away. Gotta love Jamaicans ?

Ordered from here yesterday in DD and the food was amazing! Oxtail pasta, jerk pasta, mac&cheese, jerk fried rice a d the jerk chicken. Can't go wrong with this restaurant.

I’m sorry, I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but the food is just not worth what they charge for it. Jerk chicken was bland and quite dry. Worst fried plantains I’ve ever seen. They were dry as a bone and flavorless. The best part was the jerk fried rice, which was actually pretty tasty and the only thing not over cooked to the point of desiccation. If you want good Caribbean food in the capital region, go with Roy’s Caribbean in Albany or M&K Island Hut in Troy.

Thank you Irie Vybez...the oxtails I bought this evening was delicious!! The Grilled Jerk chicken was exceptional also. I'm completely satisfied ?

Use to do great work with food now whoever the new cook is has messed up on my porridge and soup greasy lots of fat no meat and curry chicken dry just terrible need a better cook I trashed everything just nasty wasted my money

I normally get stew chicken or stew beef with rice and peas and soft plantains. OR maybe a side of oxtails and rice and peas the ?

If you want lots of fat, bones and mushy rice come here! Me and my boyfriend ordered through ubereats and it was $27 for a large oxtail meal. With taxes and deliver fee it was 60 bucks. I'm not complaining about the price but let's let the price match the quality. The rice was mushy we could tell immediately. We tried to bypass it and the small amount of gravy they put on the rice. Then the plantains were not ripe/sweet at all and tasted/looked like they had been sitting out all day. Now the oxtail (the reason why the price is so high) huge bones and lots of fat. I am ashamed that I went here. If you have tried jamaican food at other places you will be disappointed here. I know quality jamaican food and this is not it. The only plus was that the little big of oxtail meat I tried was cooked very well and flavored well but never ever again will we come here.

It was a bit hard for us to find a great restaurant however, we ended up at Irie Vybez. The food was excellent, from the preparation to the presentation. Our meal was served hot with generous portions and great price. The service was fast and friendly. I highly recommend here If you're in or even passing through this area.

Awesome experience! The servers were nice, I got my food fast and it was delicious. The ambiance was great and I would DEFINITELY go back. 10/10.
