I came close to close so it took a few minutes and I haven’t tried the food just yet but the employees are nice and friendly. And the place is comfortable.

The food was exceptional. However, the hour-long wait was excessive. I understand that the cooking area is limited, but additional staff and advanced food preparation are necessary. Unfortunately, coco bread, stew chicken, and fried chicken were unavailable. A customer was able to purchase an entire tray of patties on the spot, resulting in extended wait times for other customers. Implementing an advance order system for bulk patties would be beneficial. The current system appears unfair to waiting customers. The restaurant's compact size, with only two tables and patrons standing nearby while dining, can be improved. Recommendations include relocating boxes from the corner of the restaurant and positioning tables against the wall.

This was my first time going here. I was well pleased with my food. Taste was very satisfying and cooked to order. The cost was reasonable too. I do plan on going back to try some other things I have in mind. I would like to see a menu with prices.

Food is great but they are never open at the new location everytime I go and it’s frustrating. Please go back to the old location

A really decent place to grab some good quality carribean food. Tried the curry chicken, and yes it was all of that., great seasons and tender plus tasty. Not sure if this the only jerk spot in Lexington Kentucky but I can say it was top tier.

Yall the owner is an Amazing woman! My husband and I stopped in this morning he ordered the jerk chicken which was delicious, crispy and tender while full of flavor! With Naan and beans and rice for his sides (I ate most of his rice it was so good. I had wanted the Oxtails but they weren’t ready yet😩
I left and came back for my tails when I ordered the cashier told me they were sold out when I tell you I was in SHAMBLES! When my girl popped around the corner and said “no no no she Pre ordered I have her Oxtails right here” I could have CRIED. This is top tier customer service! The food is delicious! 10/10 would recommend!! Go get you some
The food is always amazing when come to Lex I order

Michelle nailed the order and our food was delicious! I ordered the jerk mushroom entree with a side of Yuka fries and fried plantains. So freaking tasty.
Highly recommend this place for a flavor packed meal with plenty of good seating too.

Irie Flavors has only been around for a short time in Lexington, but since I discovered them last year I haven’t been able to stop coming back for more. The food is bursting with flavor! Perfectly seasoned and cooked with love. From the jerk chicken, BBQ jerk pork/ribs/jerk chicken , curry chicken to the oxtail, everything has been 10/10. Their sides as well. Their Mac and cheese is the real deal. Greens, cassava fries, plantains.. The Irie punch tastes amazing. look, I gotta stop myself before I list off the whole menu.. you get the picture. The owner Michelle has been very hospitable and I know she is gonna take off with this place. Hands down my favorite restaurant to eat from in Lexington.

I was skeptical 🫤, even warned I was going to talk bad about them if it wasn't good.
Food is a memory, this took me back to streets of Jamaica, jerk plate hot of the fire grill (was missing the smoke), but as soon as the sauce hit, the day turned into a cheat day! I needed the coco bread, rice and peas, and 2 beef patties.
Irie is definitely a must-check-in spot with Lexington. Only missing my vita malt!!!! But, the Irie punch was hittin!
