Leoni can NOT own this place anymore and I wish she would've made whomever bought it change the name. Oxtails were tiny and spicy for no apparent damn reason, not to mention the rice and peas had no seasoning, cabbage was not properly seasoned! I used to go to Island Vibes at least 3xs a week before I moved from Ohio and now I won't visit this place 3xs a decade! I wish I could give it -5 , also my stomach is cramping after having eaten that trash. The review asked me what would I recommend from this place, haha..I recommend that you turn around, walk back outside, get in your car, and drive from whence you came and I mean drive fast!!!!!
As a columbus city schools bus driver myself and another driver that is with me always saw smoke and smelled the food around 9am. Well we caught the owner and we got a big mixed box of food that we said cold would be ok and after warming it up this food is magnificent and fresh and flavorful. I had red beans and rice plus cabbage browned chicken in sauce plus pepper steak. It's a great place to eat if it wasn't good food it wouldn't had lasted 30years.
The food at this restaurant is excellent, but unfortunately, the service from a woman named Alicia was quite disappointing. She was rude and had a negative attitude. I've been a regular customer for years, visiting weekly, but I stopped going for two months just to avoid interacting with her. I really hope she is let go soon, as I would love to return and enjoy my time there again!
Delicious homestyle food with a delightful Caribbean twist. The portion sizes are generous. The photo shows one meal consisting of a large dinner featuring half curry goat and half jerk chicken, served with cabbage and rice and peas. I was able to enjoy it for three meals! Every bite was absolutely tasty. Book a table now
I could smell the smoke from the street, so I decided to go inside. However, I was told they weren't open today, which was very disappointing. The doors were open, and I could see smoke coming from the back of the restaurant.
First let me start off by saying only went to this place because it had decent reviews.Sadly mistaken the rice in the beans rice was mushy. Asked for my jerk chicken to be spicy it wasn't but it sure was greasy.
Usually my favorite place, but they must have a new chef, because the cabbage tasted like onions and didn't have much seasoning. The chicken and plantains were good, though.
If you want Jamaican food, you want Island Vibes. So so so good and, in my experience, they are far more consistent in quality than other places. Book a table now
I did not gat a chance to taste the food because the driver spilled the food inside the bag. Very bad experience. The worse
