Stone Mountain Restaurant Guide

Cissy B's Island Spice is a Caribbean (Jamaican-leaning) takeout-and-grill in a Stone Mountain shopping plaza on Redan Road, in the stretch of east DeKalb County where Jamaican, Trinidadian, and Haitian kitchens cluster — a few doors down from other Caribbean operators like Banana Tree at 4885 Redan Rd and Spice Island Jamaican Restaurant at 4842 Redan Rd. The cuisine label on this directory entry lists Ethiopian/African, but the available business listings (Restaurant.com, SinglePlatform menu, Yellow Pages) describe Cissy B's as a Caribbean wings-and-grill operation, with reviewers consistently mentioning oxtails and jerk preparations rather than Ethiopian dishes. One Yellow Pages reviewer cites the smoked jerk and 'fall off the bone' meat as a particular draw, and the restaurant carries a 5-star rating on that platform, though the reviewer base there is small. Hours run six days a week (closed Sunday) from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., consistent with a lunch-and-dinner takeout pattern rather than a full sit-down dining room. Online presence is minimal: no dedicated website surfaced in standard search, no major Yelp review page, and no press writeups located. That places it in the category of neighborhood Caribbean spots discovered mostly by word of mouth or by walking the Redan Road corridor — which on this stretch functions as one of metro Atlanta's densest concentrations of Jamaican and West Indian small kitchens. For diners coming from outside the area, the practical upside is variety within a half-mile walk; the practical downside is that with so few public reviews, the kitchen's day-to-day consistency is hard to gauge in advance.
