First time going to this Restaurant, I must say everything was great. The Restaurant is very clean and the seating area is beautifully kept and spacious. Everyone is welcoming and friendly especially the owner Jackie, who takes the time to welcome you and to inquire about the food, taste and service. Food is delicious, well worth the money. We'll definitely be back. Thank you Jackie.

I’ve been eating here since they opened about 15 years ago and they have been consistently delicious!! My go to dishes are Ackee and Saltfish, Oxtails, Red Snapper and Jerk Chicken. Ive been to many but Jay’s is hands down the Best Caribbean Restaurant in GA!!

This was my first time going here. I ordered oxtails, a beef patty and this coconut treat. First of all, the service was perfect! The lady that took my order was so patience and friendly. The food was EXACTLY WHAT I WAS CRAVING! And yhe coconut treat was THE BOMB! I will definitely be revisiting!
