Negril Atl

4 words: YOU WILL BE BACK! Negril has absolutely the best Caribbean food and music in Atlanta. We love this place, and frequently visit so much that the owner regards us as regulars. The vibe is pure West Indian culture from the music to the authentic food. The entire menu is great. Some of our favorites that we recommend are the jerk wings, collard green spring rolls, curry chicken with roti, jerk chicken with rice and peas, plantains are perfection and my absolute favorite the oxtails. We also love the stewed chicken. This place does not miss. If you want a great tropical cocktail experience, try the knotty dread, which is a milky piña colada-type of spicy cocktail. The spice comes from the cinnamon/nutmeg rimmed glass and it mixes so well with the drink. The drink is amazing and you will want to order a second, although one is sufficient if you have a low tolerance. The rum punch is also a great lighter option. Very fruity and refreshing.

The brunch buffet is the BEST choice if you have more than 3 people. The only con to this buffet is they don’t serve bottomless mimosas w/ the buffet. Drinks is al carte and from the people I brought they said the liquor drinks were blah and were more juice/water. Luckily, I got the red blend wine. The service was mid and I only say that because they did a great job at replenishing the food, but not the plates. Unfortunately, some were a bit dirty so we had to wait for clean dishes. The DJ was cool but the volume was a bit uncomfortable to the ears. The atmosphere was cute. I will say this is the place you visit to pre-game on food BEFORE you start drinking somewhere else.

I particularly liked the variety of the D’Roundabout entree which was also a large enough portion to share between two people. This meal was an exciting combination of oxtail, curry goat, jerk chicken and other items that were very nicely presented. The rum punch was good and strong, just the way I like it. Parking was paid with 20% gratuity automatically added to checks for parties of 2 or more.

We were at Negril on a Wednesday afternoon at 2pm. We sat inside but quickly moved to the outside patio because it was extra cold in the restaurant. We were served our lunch within 20 minutes and it was hot and well seasoned. The curry goat bowl was delicious and tender, and my husband enjoyed his burger. Our only complaint was that the burger was on the small side. Our waiter, "D" gave us great service and attention.

Heard about this place on tiktok so we decided to give it a try. Parking is $20 so be prepared! Our waiter was excellent, checked on us several times throughout dinner, and even recommended some drinks for us to try! We got the collard green spring rolls as our appetizer. They come with a sweet and spicy kind of dipping sauce, which paired well with the collard greens! For dinner, I had the oxtail pasta with whipped sweet potatoes & my boyfriend had the crispy snapper stuffed with creole shrimp. Both dishes were a 10/10, but the whipped sweet potatoes lacked flavor. What you see is literally what you get, plain sweet potatoes with no brown sugar or sweetness to them. The only downside to our experience was being given minimal directions to the bathroom, only to realize I had to walk up a huge flight of steps and pretty much still search for the bathroom on my own once I got upstairs. However, I’d definitely eat at this place again whenever I’m in Atlanta!

We had an amazing evening here last night. We arrived late from our flight and our front desk staff recommended this place as it was opened until midnight. Our server Maya was excellent. We wanted small dishes to try as it was already late for a full meal. Everything we tried we loved it. The Jamaican beef patties and vegetarian were delicious. We tried the Mango 🥭 Cheesecake and it was superb. Definitely recommend this place. The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly and attentive. Thank you! ♥️

I enjoyed our stop here. The waiter was prompt, friendly, personable, and attentive. This was the first time the person with me had exposure to Jamaican inspired food. My expectations were high - boyfriend's family is Jamaican and his dad cooks a lot....and that probably tainted my food experience. We got the Ackee and saltfish spring rolls (good), jerk shrimp (hard to mess up), oxtail- which was served with a lettuce wrap and a festival (good). The curry chicken was disappointing for me...i thought it was under seasoned. The rice, cabbage and plaintain were cooked well. We split all of these dishes and it was more than enough food for 2 people. I wanted to make sure she got a full experience so I ordered a champagne cola, sorel, rum punch and red stripe.
