Absolute favorite place to get oxtail!
First time for me. My hubby favorite place. Friendly face, didn't have to wait for our take out meal.
Excellent service, amazing food!

The restaurant does not honour the prices that are posted up on the board. When I asked why the wrong prices are posted, the cashier was very rude and confrontational and did not allow me any chance to speak to any manager or owner even by phone or email. The price is not expensive but it's about honesty and integrity to the posted price.

Eating at Yardie’s was a pleasure to my pallet. I had the curry chicken and it was succulent and flavorful. The rice was fresh and tasted fresh as well. I will definitely return to try other items on the menu. I recommend you try the curry chicken with bone in super good. The only thing I can say about this restaurant is they need more seating But it looks to me that most people just pick up their meal.

I recently visited Yardies for lunch and had a pleasant experience overall. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which set a positive tone for the meal.
I ordered a jerk chicken sandwich and a spicy beef patty. The beef patty was absolutely perfect – flavorful and just the right amount of spice. The jerk chicken sandwich was served on coco bread. While the combination of jerk chicken and coleslaw was delicious, I noticed that the bread became hard once it cooled down a bit, which made it less enjoyable.
My friend ordered the fried chicken with rice and peas and requested dark meat, but unfortunately, he was served white meat instead. This was a bit disappointing, especially since he had specified his preference.
Overall, the food tasted good, but there are a few areas for improvement. With a bit more attention to detail, Yardies could provide an even better takeout experience.
Hands down, the BEST Jamaican cuisine I’ve ever had from a restaurant in the GTA, in my 30+ years of living. I barely have any pictures of the food because it had to be devoured IMMEDIATELY! First time I ordered from this restaurant, I got the jerk chicken dinner, and fried festival. It came with plantain, and the portion was HUGE. I scarfed it down and figured maybe it only tasted that good because I was so hungry. I decided to try them again, and ordered the fried chicken dinner, fried dumpling, and boneless chicken roti. The fried chicken and rice and peas were IMMACULATE, and the roti tasted great but it was just the chicken and it was fairly dry. I decided to try again, ordered the same thing, and this time I had the option to add oxtail gravy to the roti, so I did that. Ordered the same thing again (added jerk wings to my order, also AMAZING), and requested they add potatoes to the roti this time. They were able to give me potatoes on the side. I ordered again because at this point, I’m addicted to their food..they made the roti with the potato inside, and the world suddenly became a better place! The food here NEVER disappoints! I feel like I have my very own guardian chef angel in that kitchen! Yardies is officially my new favourite restaurant ?

Best Jerk pork I ever had in Toronto! Great portion sizes, tasty and flavorful. Had their gungo peas soup too... THAT was a pleasant surprise. It was an enriching soup and the large was definitely worth it. They made me a fan of that soup, although I hardly eat it otherwise.
Anyways, back to the jerk pork and its combo---- yum ? ! I didn't even get a chance to take a photo of that.. lol ? we ate too fast!

I order a roti and a large and small chicken curry. When I arrived at home there was no chicken but another meat. We were surprised and disappointed not knowing what we were given and charged for. The food lacked sauce and the roti fell apart. The curry mystery meat was ok but I like to know what I eat. We do not live near by so didn’t go back. Will not go back or recommend it to anyone.

Food is generally pretty good I just wish they improved on their coleslaw or have a steamed veggie option

The food is to spicy.
Front counter staff need be more polite.
The atmosphere is ok.
