If you're at all a fan of Jamaican food, Mo' Bay is absolutely fabulous. It's not much to look at. They're not "dressed to impress", but they're serving up some DELICIOUS food with a smile. Excellent service! They even offer a selection of imported beverages to complement your Jamaican dishes. Serving sizes are generous, too. I don't think any of us actually finished our meals. You can tell they know what they're doing here. There was a bit of a line after we arrived (we were on the early side for dinner because we had just traveled in and were hungry). Looks like locals cherish this place. I travel all over the world as a flight attendant and LOVE finding gems like this. Outside of Jamaica, the only other place I've been that really impressed with the Jamaican menu was "Turtle Bay" in Manchester, England. And even that was on a different catering-to-tourists kind of level. Mo' Bay is strictly about serving delicious, authentic flavor.

Very, very tasty. I was on my way to Savannah last Friday and saw the great reviews for this place and knew I had to get some on my way into town. I called to place an order for carry-out when I was about 20 minutes away and after a few minutes on hold, I was able to get my order placed. It was ready when I arrived.
This place is located in a smaller strip mall. There's some seating inside, though not a ton. Bright yellows and greens and Jamaican memorabilia make this place very inviting. There are drink coolers with beverages and you order and pay at the register on the counter. To my surprise, much of the food was in a hot bar on display at the front counter. No big deal or anything - just thought it was interesting. I liked getting a brief glimpse of some of the other yumminess. :)
Service was friendly and warm and I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Would have been less than five had my card actually agreed with the card machine, but luckily I had cash, lol.
I got a medium plate with curry chicken, rice and peas, and macaroni and cheese. It was an ample portion for the money -- two meals for me, easily. Yay for leftovers! The chicken itself was very succulent and fell off the bone. Unlike curry chicken I've had before, this one had a couple of cubes of potato and carrot mixed in, rather than just chicken and curry. I really enjoyed the extra veggies. The rice was fluffy and soft. Little low on the pea ratio but overall yummy, and I'd say mild-moderately spicy. Very much enjoyed it. The macaroni and cheese was good too, though personally, I like mine more with milder cheese. Just a preference thing rather than any actual complaint. I do wish I could've had a slice or two of plantain to round out the experience but I didn't want to add on a third side. Overall, I was very happy with what I got.
Definitely give this place a go -- well worth a stop if it's along your route.
Amazing food here and fried chicken is delicious but call ahead and have them fry your chicken so it's fresh & hot! The jerk chili was delicious and the best I've ever had. The staff was super friendly.
Everything I've had has been very good. Just about everything has a little spice to it, but I love it. The jerk wings, the ox tails, the curry goat, the stew chicken, the Mac n Cheese, the cabbage, the rum cake, the everything is good.
Love this restaurant. The staff is extremely welcoming, and the food does not disappoint. Not to mention the goat cow skin soup;it's the bomb. Nah lie, neva afe nice suh..

The service was wonderful. The food was delicious. Such a great variety of food, drink, and desserts. My favorite was the black rum cake, pure heaven!
Fantastic food, staff, and customers. Locally owned place where the owners and staff knew everyone that walked in. If they didn't know you when you came in, you would call them a friend by the time you left. I had the jerk chicken, plantains and spicy rice for dinner.... Yes technically there was a salad but i didn't have any room left and that's not why you come here.
It was just the right amount of spice and everything was cooked perfectly. I will be back and you should stop in and grab a bite on the way to or from the airport.
The food was awesome!! I had the jerk chicken with red beans and rice with plantains and my friend had the ox tail which was very tender with cooked cabbage. Oh and get the fruit punch its awesome as well!!
Who ever said this place is not good is crazy. As we were driving from Michigan to fl we decided to stop in due to the great reviews. We could have stopped two hrs before but we decided to starve and wait. Lol best decision ever. got the oxtail and my lord it was flavourful. My husband got jerk chicken he said he has never had such great curry. The staff was amazing. If we are ever in Pooler Georgia this will be our new spot. And oooo and the juices are to die for.
We're on the road traveling to Florida and just passing through. We wanted more than just fast food for a late lunch. This was perfect. The staff was very nice and the food was hot and delicious. The restaurant was clean. I would definitely recommend.
Authentic and delicious! Oxtails were so large and flavorful! My brother and I enjoyed every bite and will come here again!
Food is authentic. Flavors are on point. Service is great.
I got the chicken curry. Large portion. Great flavor. Next time I'll ask for more gravy.
Perfect test and spice. Loved the way they cooked the goat curry.
Jerk pork and chicken, the plantains, jerk chili, and spicy curry rice were excellent. The employees were all very attentive to our needs. We will definitely be dining there again.
Delicious! I was craving some good island food, and they nailed it! Curry Goat, spicy rice, and potato salad. I'll be back for some oxtail soon
