Nikki was the absolute best! From the moment that I walked in, to her explaining the menu and other specialty items, I am quite confident that this will be the next hot spot in the Atlanta metro area! The food was great, the drinks were so good and the atmosphere was top tier! I will be back for sure!

My friend found this place on tick tok. The food was 10/10. I had the happy hour dumplings, fritters, and patty. All amazing. Our waiter was so sweet and attentive. The parking will cost you about $5-$10. Please visit ?

Went here on a Friday for lunch and to catch the bottomless mimosas. It wasn’t crowded at all so we got great service, the food was absolutely delicious and well flavored and the mimosas were great.
We got the following app: juju fritters 5/5 tasty and you get 6 of them
Mains: jerk chicken 5/5 flavors were great and good size portion for lunch
Fish sandwich 5/5
Passion fruit pancakes 5/5- I loved the pancakes they were thick and fluffy. The passion fruit was just a bit much for me so I got it on the side and ate it with syrup. Would highly recommend.
Calypso waffle 5/5- good size the chicken was good and waffle cooked to perfection.
Overall, would highly recommend you try this place. Will return!

Nice Saturday Jamaican brunch directly by Lindbergh Marta.
Visiting from Houston, we came across this awesome spot from searching on Google for notable breakfast. WHEN I TELL YOU…these dang passion fruit pancakes and steak & egg skillet are HIGHLY notable.
From the sweet lady welcoming us as we entered, the kind & attentive server and even just folks asking us if we’re doing good…made our experience even better (as if the food and atmosphere was enough)!!
10/10, highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at J’ouvert, and our experience was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to Necia, our wonderful waitress. From the moment we sat down, her warm smile and genuine kindness set the perfect tone for the evening. It felt like she was welcoming us into her own home, not just serving at a restaurant.
Necia's attentiveness was truly remarkable. She took the time to explain the menu with enthusiasm, and her recommendation was spot on! I’m so glad I trusted her advice, as every bite was a delight. The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful, prepared to perfection just as she promised. It's clear that Necia knows her menu inside out and has a true passion for making each guest’s experience memorable.
Throughout our meal, she was attentive without hovering, checking in at just the right times and ensuring we had everything we needed. It’s rare to find someone who makes you feel genuinely cared for, and Necia did exactly that. She added a special touch to our meal, and I left not only with a happy stomach but with a heart warmed by her kindness and charm.
Thank you, Necia, for making our dining experience unforgettable. We’ll definitely be back and will be asking for you!

J'ouvert Caribbean Kitchen is a vibrant celebration of Caribbean culture, cuisine, and carnival. It is a new (2024) restaurant concept for the team behind Belle & Lilly's Caribbean Brunch House, Apt 4B, and Ms. Iceys Kitchen & Bar.
As soon as you walk in, you are transported to a tropical destination. The eatery is bright and earthy and I loved the plants and the floral and water accents.
J'ouvert has a DJ beginning at noon on the weekends for brunch. The music had a Sunday lounging feel and was low enough to hold a conversation. DJ Supreme even asked us for feedback on the music level, which added to already high-quality service.
The menu features a fusion of flavors from Africa, India, and China and also reflects owner Tasha Cyril's experience growing up in St. Lucia. We Ordered:
?Paint and Powder: Grey Goose Citron, Guava, Mathilde Pear Liqueur, Lemon Juice
?️ Hennesssy Blueberry Lemon Pancakes
?️ Veggie Tacos
?️ Yahd Man Jerk Chicken
?️ Rice and peas
The Paint and Powder Is the type of beverage you force yourself to slow down drinking because you know it has deceivingly high levels of alcohol.
We did not have a bad bite – everything was a high note. I generally do not like guacamole. But this guacamole, with its notes of lime juice, garlic, and onions was so smooth I would order it again.
My husband is a pancake connoisseur and he loved the lightness, fluffiness, and flavor of the pancakes. The rice and peas were fragrant, and I had to ask for additional jerk sauces to take home with me. I couldn’t stop eyeing my neighbor’s Steak and Eggs, which I will be trying on my next visit.

This was our first time at this restaurant and it will NOT be our last! From the moment we arrived we were greeted with a friendly face and we were seated immediately. Our server, Necia was absolutely FANTASTIC! Her description of the items on the menu had us wanting to order everything. We started out with their RUM PUNCH (and let me tell you, it was the REAL deal), along with the codfish fritters and the highly recommended “street corn.” When I tell you how we nearly licked the plate it was so delicious!!! Our entrees were the Jouvert Burger and the Calypso Waffles…..if you have ever been to CARNIVAL well that’s how we were celebrating the greatness of this food! No joke. Not only was the taste wonderful but the presentation was a work of art! Necia was so gracious and lovely and would continuously check on us. I cannot complete this review without mentioning the DJ!!!!!! Originalroryt KILLED it! This place is a WHOLE VIBE…..great food, awesome drinks, chic atmosphere and the best service in town!

The food was great! The live dj provided a great vibe but it wasn't to loud to have a convo at the table. Our server Nikki was great!
Food:
- Passion fruit pancakes ... would absolutely order again they were thick but not dense... almost cake like but fluffy!
- Roti ... the spices were great and I wrapped it around a piece of the fried chicken... so good!
- Side fried chicken ... crispy but not a thick crust. Juicy and flavorful. Delicious paired with the Roti
- Mango pina colada ... refreshing and balanced but not overly sweet.

My husband and I visited J'ouvert for the 1st time today. We will definitely be back. The hospitality that we experienced from the staff was refreshing! We were immediately greeted by Dean. He truly made us feel seen and at home. We ordered the chicken and waffles, Blueberry Hennesy infused waffles, scrambled eggs, and jalapeno cornbread. Everything was delicious!!! Please give this place a try. You will not be disappointed.

Location is great, the all you can eat brunch is very tasty. Also they have many flavors of the bottomless mimosas. Live dj on Saturday that keeps the tunes spinning while you eat your belly FULL. I will definitely be back. The restaurant is not busy now as it is fairly new. So this is the best time to go.
Parking: There is street parking available, if that is full you can park in the parking deck across the street. It is very affordable for 3 hrs
Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible from parking to restaurant
