I only ordered the beef patties with coco bread and one of their natural juices—the passion fruit and watermelon flavor. The patty and coco bread was amazing, and the juice was really good as well

Good food but terrible service…rude and disrespectful

I went today. The guy working at the back kept giving me a crazy stare.. no respect for non binary/transgender ppl.. God has created me and God loves me just the way I am. So he needs to be careful how he treats the non binary/transgender community. The patties were ok, but way over priced.

I ordered a large oxtail dinner, the oxtail was very salty, almost like brine, not the first time and some of the bones had no meat. Overall very disappointed.

Ordered a Small Oxtail and a Beef Patty.
Originally, I was just going to get the Small Oxtail, but while waiting in line, I saw the reviews regarding the beef patties and I had to add that. I am so glad that I did. It was one of the most flavorful beef patties I’ve had.
The Oxtail was great too. Though, I was a bit underwhelmed by the actual amount of meat on the pieces. Like, I had like three pieces that actually had no meat on them. As a result, I was left with a great deal of rice leftover with no oxtail to have it with (and I was doing a bit of oxtail with rice every bite). The woman was also individually picking the pieces, sooooo….. Regardless, the oxtail itself was really good.
I would definitely go again just because of flavor, but would ask them to put a bit more oxtail gravy as well as meatier pieces.

I fell for the 4.8 rating and decided to disregard the overall bad feeling that I got as soon as I walked into the store.
I don’t know what I did to offend the person that was getting me food, but he definitely hated me just for being there. The food was not fresh at all and it was cold when I opened it; the portion was 85% rice and beans and the rest was curry that was half bones; oh and no plantains…. I was surprised by how bad it was across the board considering all the great reviews this place had, so I had to go see other bad reviews and sure enough, another lady had exact same experience as I did a few weeks ago (except she had plantains haha), but whomever is running the place decided to double down and insult her taste, instead of apologizing.
It’s a shame, considering I’ve been eyeballing this place for a while and since it has such high rating, it will surely get plenty other innocent customers who will not bother looking at the bad reviews.

Did an online order and food was ready very quickly. love the building itself , the art is beautiful. I ordered a regular sized oxtail and the meat was dry; it wasn’t as flavorful as I expected it to be. The gravy was good and I enjoyed the rice & peas. The food was HOT. I traveled to 34st and it was still warm. I see that the majority of reviews are great, so I will give them another try!

So I was going up the block I’ll leave that review for them and I saw this place Kingston bakery did a U-turn and went in asked for a beef patty at 10am then said they don’t have I was a bit disappointed, but they had chicken patties, so I took one of those at $4 it wasn’t cheap for a patty. But lord ooooo lord it was jammed packed and delicious. I was surprised to say the least. I couldn’t believe the flavor bomb it was seasoned great spicy I added hot sauce after a few bits of course but it didn’t need it. The patty itself wasn’t flaky and I expected that from a patty but after the first bit I didn’t mind at all this is hands down one of the best in the city and you guys sound definitely try it. I’ll be back to taste the full patty list and try other things to update this review. Can’t wait to return.
It’s a bit outta my way but for those in the area and want a patty definitely won’t be disappointed.
Thanks for the follows I truly appreciate it hope this review helps you guys

Food is NOT fresh!! Just go around the corner to King Baraka. This place is horrible and I rarely ever give bad reviews. Stale old plantains, small portions, horribly rude service. I regret stumbling across this place

This small restaurant deserves a Wow! A gem with delicious food!
The food was delicious! Portions were great! Must go back!

Very extensive menu with lots of options, including several for vegetarians and vegans; well-seasoned food; friendly and fast service. Though it was fast, the food was still fresh and of satisfactory quality! And while it's not a sit-down restaurant, it's a nice vibe inside

Good food fair prices

Didn't like the patties at all unfortunately. Zero flakiness and not spicy at all. My standard for good patties are Randy's and Patty Time in Toronto. Mac and cheese was dry and not good. The bread pudding was good though.

5 STARS ALL-AROUND! Food is phenomenal! Atmosphere is welcoming and modest. Service is absolutely personable, inviting and thoughtful. Such a great find if you want amazing food from such a wonderful environment and cuisine. I wish I could review them twice so they could get 10 stars! They deserve all this praise and then some! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! (I would have posted pics, but I couldn't wait...)
