We both had the jerk chicken meal which came with rice with a curry coconut chcickpea sauce and my dining partner also had the pea soup. Everything tasted absolutely AMAZING!!!! The chicken was very flavourful but not excruciatingly spicy like some I've experienced. The sauce on the rice and the soup were definite standouts and definitely worth a 225km trip back to get more!

Literally the best stir fry I have had in my life. Not to mention the Jamaican j*** and fish and chips. I always go to Portlander when I miss home 'Jamaica'. The absolute BEST jamaican food in town.The food was exceptional and the service was great!

I can say that’s the best food I’ve had since I came to Canada (2 years ago). It’s my second time in the restaurant and got even more in love with this food! Everything we ordered was delicious! Full of flavour. The fish and chips was excellent, the chicken is very good too. The staff is very kind. We loved the service. The lady showed up with a portion of unexpected fried bananas (exactly as I used to eat in Brazil). My family felt very welcoming here. The food is amazing.
