My friend and I went for lunch. I had the Brisket Taco. It was delicious Chopped Brisket, topped with Coconut Street Corn, Cheese, Caribbean Slaw and BBQ sauce. Mimi had the ribs she said the flavor was wonderful. Excellent Customer Service by Nate and Sean . They were very friendly and helpful. We will be back the food was fabulous.

Was nearby and hit Google Maps for quick food spots. This popped at the top and I figured - why not! Really glad I did! Got the mac, Spanish rice, and a two-meat sandwich, with Jerk Chicken, brisket, and the spicy sauce! Everything was super tasty and the Johnny Bread on the sandwich was a delicious surprise. Everyone was super nice and chill. Definitely recommend!

Cool Vibes is a low-key hidden gem if you want BBQ with a Caribbean twist. My team and I tried the brisket, jerk chicken, and jerk pork chops, and everything was super tender and full of flavor. The jerk chicken had just the right amount of spice - enough kick without being too much. The sides were just as good. The coconut street corn, Mac, Caribbean slaw, and Spanish rice all gave us something different from the typical BBQ sides, and we loved that. And the Johnny Bread… it was perfectly moist and tasted like a mix between cornbread and coconut cake. If you’re looking for something a little different and really good, definitely check this little hole-in-the-wall spot out ASAP. Cool Vibes is the real deal!

Don't let the venue (shared with a gas station) stop you. The food is great. These guys will have their own location someday and thrive. Food has lots of great flavor. Not too spicy. Jerk chicken and brisket are moist and tasty. Rib meat fell of the bone. Johnny bread is sweet and is crispy on the outside. Loved the street corn. Very friendly service. Will definitely be back often.

Just tried Cool Vibes for the first time and had the brisket breakfast sandwich. The portion is a little small but the flavor is huge. The sevive is great! I will definitely be going back to try the rest of the menu. A lot of places put a spin on bbq but Cool Vibes has the unique taste the area needs. I didn't know what I was missing til now
