“Had Scotty Bons jerk bowl. Food was A++ portion was great and presentation was a++. 🇨🇦🇨🇦 Keep it up guys“

“Amazing! My first time here. I loved the elevated Jamaican dishes because it still had that home taste but the preparation and presentation was on a next level. I love that there is a high end caribbean Jamaican place for everybody but also a safe place for we to 5 star dine without being treated badly or stared at( which happens in fancy places if you caribbean) i don't usually like fish but tried my friends snapper. The nuff nuff coleslaw was my fave and the likkle patties“

“I was a bit skeptical when I saw the menu as it seemed pretty standard. However, as the saying goes, never judge a book by its cover. When I sampled the Accra and Grio I was blown away. Really tasty, well seasoned and succulent pork! I will definitely be back!“

“Fabulous jerk chicken and oxtail. Thank you for a wonderful, fresh and savoury experience. We'll be back soon!“

“I absolutely love the doubles here. The coffees and other baked goods/rolls are delicious too. It’s great to see they’ve also recently expanded the original stall to a sit down spot next door with more menu items. A must try for Trini food if you’re in the area!“

“Had jerk chicken. partner oxtail. both were just perfect. chicken soft and not dry, rice perfectly cooked. the oxtail seemed to melt in our mouths. I'll definitely be trying more. 100% recommend and to the beautiful soul who made her recommendations and was so lovely my thanks. square one location around noon on Thursday july 11.“

“my first visit. it definitely won't be my last.“

“Amazing doubles! Nostalgia and homey. Dee served us and she was an absolute angel. So welcoming and kind and even gave us some free little pieces of cassava pone❤ which was delicious and so was the mango ice cream, curry chicken and pepper sauce 🌟

I have a shellfish allergy and she immediately could tell us it was all prepared in a completely separate area and that there was no problem whatsoever ! So on that front I recommend it too.“

“So I’ve been trying to come up with the right words to explain the impeccable experience my husband and I had at this restaurant, words can’t do it justice. First impression as we walked in the door was how much it reminded me of back home islands vibes. The owner was present, attentive and overflowing with Caribbean hospitality. The Trini fusion dishes we tried were fantastic. This was such a treat and we loved every second of it. We left there needing to tell the world about the gem we had found. Thank you! Will be back with a few more people.“

“If you’re looking for good food and chill vibes, definitely give this place a try! The food was flavourful and delicious, with generous portions and great presentation. Our favourite was definitely the mac and cheese/macaroni pie. The tres leches, however, wasn’t the best.

The service was good overall, but they do get pretty busy, so don’t expect too much when it comes to service. I’d recommend making a reservation through OpenTable.

We came to celebrate my birthday, and my friend had secretly added a note to the reservation asking if they could bring out a cake or dessert with a candle. Unfortunately, it seems the note was overlooked, which was a little disappointing. Aside from that, we had a good experience overall.“

“The BEST Roti around. My go to when I have a craving for delicious food for the past 15 years!“

“If you’re looking for Jamaican food cooked in a healthy way, head on over to @jerkupcentral ! I ordered the large jerk pork dinner. I enjoyed the steamed vegetables (different from the typical coleslaw), rice and peas and the tasty, lean jerk pork. I washed it down with my favourite @dandgjamaica pineapple soft drink! I rate it 4 1/2 out of 5 stars because I needed a bit more “jerk”. Give me the 🔥, I can take it lol. 🇯🇲 #jerkpork #jamaicanfood“

“The food was excellent , I had the Chicken Vindaloo , it was excellent, I had it with the butter Naan. My wife had the tikka masala and also enjoyed it a lot. Excellent value, the service was good, we ate in and the interior was nice and clean if basic. I definitely would go back!“

“Delicious vegan Caribbean food in the heart of Kensington Market. Veggie D'light hits the spot for lunch on a weekend. I had their meal with jerk saitan, veggies and basmati/quinoa. I asked about the soup of the day and was promptly offered a taste by the friendly chef. Had the medium soup as well--a delicious rich soup with yams and coconut milk. Now I have a new favorite lunch spot.“

“Snoochie Boochies! Mooby’s!!!“

“First off - the food is great. Had the Curry Goat, meat is perfectly tender coming off the bone and the flavour in the curry is rich and complex. Rice & peas are fluffy and seasoned well. The staff is incredibly friendly and took measures to accommodate my wife's allergy incredibly well. Coleslaw is just how I like it too.

I'll be eating here again“

“Update: oct 15th menu pricing update.

Delicious food. Grabbed the stew chicken with steamed veggies and rice and peas lunch special. Service was great and quick. Walked to a near by park to eat as the 2 tables inside were occupied. Will be back again“

“one of the best patties in Toronto! highly recommend. they need to open one up on the West end of Toronto“

“Food is great, portion sizes are huge and prices are very reasonable, my go to for Chinese in Scarborough!!!“

“Absolutely delicious Jamaican jerk chicken! The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned with a great smoky kick. The portions were generous, making it an excellent value for the price. Everything tasted fresh, and the sides paired really well with the chicken. On top of that, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place!“

“I have been coming to The Roti Lady for over a decade, though years ago she was on Queen St W. Best roti in Toronto that I have found and reminds me of the rotis I ate in Trinidad. Just amazing!“

“My family & I have been getting roti from island foods for close to 15 years, and since finding this place, we haven’t been able to go anywhere else. The food is absolutely delicious (best roti in Toronto!) and the service is always incredible. Love supporting this family business❤“

“Their place is good. Loved the fresh fried dumplings and the jerk pork .. the tender juicy pork I was so sent back by how juicy it was and with oxtail gravy. That oxtail gravy was sooooo flavourful never in my years living in the north york area knew there was a good Caribbean restaurant near me. The flavour is phenomenal. I will be returning to try more take out from Nicey’s Eatery. (Door Dash FYI)“

“The Queen herself has had the same great quality of food since before I was even in high school. She's sincerely one of the best places to grab some of the most incredible Jamaican food you'll ever eat. And her patties are amazing!! 😍“

“Delicious food amazing staff.“

“Incredible flavour and freshness!“

“Delicious Ethiopian Vegan Food!

Ordered the Injera Thali Plate and it was packed with so much flavour :) each dish had its own unique taste and they complimented each other well. I really liked the potato dish (super savory) and lentil dish (perfect amount of heat)

Their Samosas are Top Shelf, and The lady who served me was very pleasant and happy! Can’t wait to come back to try more of their offerings.“

“The food was amazing! Highly recommend!“

“Amazing food! Amazing servers! Definitely one of the best! Ill surely keep on coming back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“It is true when Charles Swindoll said, "Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it"... Yes, it's the fact, and I am saying this because of what Mr Hans of triumphantfoundation.com has done for me by giving me a huge loan which I least expected to be true. Indeed, T.F is great and that's the reason why I am recommending them to those that need financial assistance. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Mr Hans and the entire T.F has really blessed me and made me feel good and if anyone is seeking for assistance, I will solidly advise them to contact T.F for their loans because they are reliable and true to the core. "I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples". this was the exact words from Mother Teresa, so I have done my part and God bless you all. triumphantfoundation.com“

“The best Caribbean food I’ve found in Toronto and definitely the area. We love their jerk chicken (with rice and peas or the potatoes) and ox tail, especially the ox tail pasta. Incredible place, friendly people. I recommend ordering in advance to cut down on wait time.“

“Love the vibe. Able to grab some groceries and food . Everything came out hot straight from the kitchen. Full menu was available! Kid friendly if you’re worried about spice. I got the cow foot, curry chicken, jerk chicken and chicken/ beef soup. Affordable pricing.“

“Ital Vital is an absolute must! I had them cater for an event and am beyond happy with how it went! The food was so amazing! We had so many delicious options and everyone loved it. The plant-based bbq spare rib was a crowd favourite! The chef and owner, Arnold, is so kind and generous. The customer service experience was incredible. It was such a pleasure having Ital Vital cater to us and I can’t wait to call them back soon!“

“I MUST say nuff nuff big up to the entire Caribbean Queen jerk family for the entire family dinner that they gave out today. Quality meals handed out to anyone who came through the door. Very well Done.“

“The best Roti in the GTA.“

“Absolutely loved our experience at Hotpot Restaurant! The jerk pork was a standout—full of flavor, tender, and absolutely delicious. Everything on the menu was made with high-quality ingredients and you can truly taste the care that goes into every dish.
A special thank you to Momique and the entire team for the warm welcome and great service. You made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend Hotpot Restaurant for anyone looking for delicious food and excellent hospitality“

“the best caribean place in Makam🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝“

“yes, their portions are great. Jerk chicken poutine changed my life“

“First time trying authentic fried Jamaican chicken. So delicious and their coconut water is truly organic and fresh. The customer service here is so refreshing they are truly so kind. Looking forward to trying more of their menu! Thank you and the cashier she's a very lovely lady 🙂!“

“From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service makes you feel right at home. But the real star is the food!
The Stuffed Patties are to die for. There are a variety of patties to choose from prices ranging from 10-20 dollars, but they are worth their price. The portions are huge, definitely enough for two people or leftovers!
Hands down some of the best Jamaican food I’ve ever had!“
