To be honest this used to be my go to spot for rotis but they service got so poor. I had a few hiccups with them. First incident is when I bought a beef roti, when I got in the car I kept smelling this scent but I didn’t pay no attention to it but when I got home and I opened it up my kids asked me what that scent was I was like wow that’s the scent I been smelling. The roti was soooo offff. I took it back to the store and upon returning it I told the girl at the front the roti smells so she called the person In charge from the back the lady then began to tell me oh she can’t smell anything she don’t know what I talking about etc. she was so rude then she asked the girl to the front to smell it, when she smelled it she looked at me and softly told the lady it does smell and that I was right. The lady that was in charge looked at her so nasty. I asked for my money back she told the girl to give me and walked off grumbling. Btw this was only one of my bad experiences I would leave the story about the German roaches and the hair for another time.

The food is good, but they are never ready! Why have your door open from 8, 9, 10 am and you're STILL not serving customers...Today I went at 12:30 pm, door is locked. No sign, no clue what time anyone is coming back. I'm just going to give up trying.I end up giving my money to the deli next door since the roti shop doesn't want mine.

Place is clean, I couldn’t wait to have a Authentic roti shop step away from my home. But is best it close. They never have breakfast 9,10 or 11 lol over priced and poor quality. No this no that so why are you open? I stop going I can never get a aloo pie. Plus the incense over powers the place.

They didn't have no goat then I wanted to know what is that black thing on the white rice turned out to be a fly and another fly on the fried rice so decided to get doubles cause it was the only thing covered , no access to drinks so don't know what they had I won't go back.

Sorry I use to like you. Until I walked in thru an open door there and the girl not nicely shout out "we re close" nasty look on me upside down then turn her side. Wow I remember them being welcoming before. new girl, ghetto experience..plus mexican in the kitchen

Terrible service as you can see from the various reviews this place should close down it’s just an expensive small hole in the wall shop . A disgrace to Trinidadian food . Worst off every time you go in to order they change the price and have no justification to back it up but to just say “that person doesn’t work here anymore “ . I rather fly to Trinidad than to buy from here again !

Had a wonderful roti. Missed these from my days in Brooklyn as a student. Serving was huge and I am a big guy.My friend like his and the owners let us eat there instead of our car.

VERY DISAPPOINTEDAli's is one of my favorite spots..at least the Utica and Flatbush locations. The new young lady they have at the counter is very nice, however she is VERY CHEAP and does not give you what you pay for. She gave me pure roti skin, a little dollop of potato. I have NEVER had a roti so skimp from Ali's EVER, in the 10+ yrs eye been eating there. Yall gotta do better with the servings, especially when yall the most OVER PRICED of the Ali's chains. Smmfh. Very disappointed. Hopefully re-training can happen. Still wish u all the best.
Food is more expensive than any other roti spot.. There’s no set price the cashier make up her own price on the spot .. The food was very disappointing. The doubles were rubbery & doesn’t taste good at all, chicken roti was the worst ?.They need a better chef because that food was just garbage & waste of money .Never again

Today was my first time there and the place is nice and clean however our chicken roti was filled with bone and all 3 of my roti portions was as if I was begging for it.Very disappointed ?

I just left there today at 12:03 PM on December 13, 2021. There’s too many things on the menu that they don’t have at 12:03 PM. I ended up getting a bake and salt fish which was given to me cold. I also ordered a roti and curry chicken because They didn’t have goat available. I should also mention that they have five different types of rodeo on their menu and she never asked me which one I want. When I asked her what she gave me and she said Dahl puri. I told her I wanted a buss up and she told me they didn’t have it and proceeded to ring my order anyway even after I told her I didn’t want it . It just so happens a man walked in with buss up roti’s so I ended up getting it. I asked for one extra pepper the lady would not give it to me. What a way to make a first impression on a new customer, I won’t be coming back ??♀️. Clearly need customer service training on how to listen to customer requests…smh.

I do not go here alot so when I do go it's usually for my cup of sorrel. It's hard to get there in time to get this tasty drink. I was able to go today and saw they still had some however when I walked out the store I was looking at it and the color was pale as well as the froth sorrel naturally makes was not a pink color. I was thinking okay maybe someone else made it idk. I get home and started drinking it and it's pure water with a hint of sorrel. I just tried calling them to say hey your batch is not good and of course no one picks up the phone. I'm disappointed as this costs 4 dollars for a small cup and I'm going to have to toss this in the sink.
