Signature Eats


Looking for a fabulous Jamaican restaurant to eat? Checkout Mango & Coconut Juice Bar and Grill located in Baltimore, Md on N Charles St in the eatery. Along with the regular Jamaican dishes like oxtails, curry goat, ackee & saltfis, rice & peas and fried plantains, you can order a fruit /veggie juice or a smoothie. The owner Fabian, offers a wide variety of delicious and healthy juices and smoothies. I had a drink called "Beach Body" juice thats made  of carrot, celery, cucumber, parsley, beet and apple. My drink was refreshing and naturally delicious. My friend had a "Kool Runnings" smoothie that was made up of raspberry, mango, pineapple, kiwi and papaya. We both enjoyed our drinks and vowed to go back there to try other flavors. My friend had the oxtails and rice and cabbage, I am not a meat eater so I did not eat anything that day because there is a limited menu on Saturdays. He thoroughly enjoyed his meal because when he was finished he pushed his plate back and exclaimed excellent! The meat was thoroughly browned and was so succulent it was falling off the bones. The restaurant also carries lighter fares like patties (light flour dough baked with meat or veggies inside), coco bread and some cakes like their signature mango coconut cake. It is best to visit the restaurant during the week, where there is a greater selection to choose from. The next time you are in the downtown Baltimore area, swing by 222 N Charles St and tell Fabian hello and enjoy one of his delightful meals.
