I’ve had the jerk roti lunch special before and it was absolutely delicious. Great flavor, tender meat, and a solid portion for the price. Definitely a stand out.
However, my recent experience with the dinner portion was disappointing. I specifically ordered it with rice and asked for goat or chicken gravy, but when I got home, I found nearly half the container filled with curry potatoes, along with dry , overcooked jerk, chicken. No gravy as requested, and the overall meal just didn’t live up to expectations. To top it off, I was charged more than the price that was quoted.
Hoping this was just a one off because the lunch special shows they can get it right.

The service was okay, but the food—especially the doubles—was a big letdown! They lacked flavor and the bake was extremely dense. I don’t think I will return.

You cannot beat the taste and price of the food here. Chicken doubles are to die for!

I don’t give reviews. I don’t think I’ve ever given a review. But I really had to for this place. We ordered a curry chicken roti, curry goat roti, butter chicken roti and doubles. Let me tell you nothing absolutely nothing was good. I should have just listened to the reviews instead of giving it a chance. Everything was flavourless. Even adding my own bandanya pepper sauce and scorpion pepper sauce couldn’t save it. The bara for the doubles is very very thick and bland. Doubles is suppose to be thin and have that slight chew. The channa was mushy. As my kids said I should have just made my own instead of wasting my money. Now I see why their prices are so cheap. Go elsewhere, drupatis, Mona’s, Leelas or Lena’s
Update: it’s the next day and I literally had to re-curry the meat and re season it. The channa unfortunately there’s no saving it. There’s something in it that I have no idea what it is but the flavour is just not it. No matter how much seasoning I added will save it. Plus I think it’s on the verge of spoiling.

Do not order doubles - unfortunately it laughably misses the mark of what doubles should be

Not even worth the money. Zero taste, thick cold naan, most of these 5star reviews have to be fake because the few ones that are low rated all say the same thing. Couldn’t even finish half not worth the room in your stomach absolutely awful.
No other place will top a spicy jerk chicken roti from here. For the price, the size and taste is amazing. Always super fresh and the staff is so lovely.

The doubles are terrible! The bars is so stiff and hard. They need to work on their recipe for the bara

I went here last night just before closing. There was a young lady at the counter that wasn’t sure when asked if the doubles were buy 6 get one free. She went to the back for about 10-12 minutes and then my food was brought to me. There did not seem to be a cook there. I could hear a lot of banging around and microwaving. Paid for my food and brought it home. It was disgusting. The dough was hard. The chickpeas were laid between two doughs instead of folded into one nice soft dough. It was cold. There was no flavour to it. We had multiple people at home try it. We all felt the same. I am so disappointed. As I used to go here many years ago and it was the best place to get doubles. I would never go here again. There was a homeless guy outside the store who I had given what I thought was a really nice double, and was disappointed I gave him that as food. Not sure what happened over the years but it’s not a good change. As well there was one other lady with her that didn’t help the other worker but complained about how she wanted to go home. I got there at least 20 minutes or more before closing.
