“Jaclyn's is the best! Delicious eats and friendly service. How can you go wrong?? 😋😋😋💖“

“Highly recommend this restaurant. From the minute you walk in hearing the music, seeing the vibe of the place you get the sense that it’s going to be a good experience. Shout out to the chef’s and servers. I will definitely come back.“

“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!“

“Ordered a hazelnut oat matcha which is apparently off the menu now and it's the best matcha I've had in downtown so far. I've ordered from so many places, even the popular ones with long waiting lines, but this hidden gem deserves so much more recognition!“

“Had wedding anniversary dinner. Wait staff and bartender were fantastic- friendly, kind and the right amount of attention. Good food. Wonderful atmosphere.“

“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“

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

“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“

“Tastes like mom's and nanny's Trinidad cooking!!! 🇹🇹 Hands-down *DE BEST* curry & roti in all the GTA. The service made us feel so welcome from the minute we walked in, the decor took us away to a warmer world, and the food and made our mouths happy and bellies full. This was a real treat!
Menu was easy to read, with lots of options. Washrooms were a bit dated but sparkling clean and very well kept. Tables were clean and benches were comfortable. Prices were reasonable. Loved every second and every bite.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“I can’t say enough positive about this place. The energy is good. The food is made with love the taste leaves you happy and you walk out with a higher vibration. Human life needs more places like this.

Update. I came back today. The day after because it was soooo good.“

“Went there for weekday lunch. Had jerk chicken breast with 2 sides (coleslaw & veggies) and spicy mayonnaise + hot sauce. It was perfect, spicy enough while not overpowering the dish. 'oxed veggies are a bit tasteless'but ok when eaten with the rest.“

“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.“

“Wow! Just wow! Never experienced anything this good. The food was so good and bursting with flavors. Service was impeccable. I can’t keep talking about it. Wanted to try out this restaurant out since everyone was talking about it and I’m so happy it lived up to its hype. Please do yourself a favor and try it out for yourself!“

“I live downtown and so thats the location I order from. Amazing goat curry and fried chicken. Stew oeas is delicious too.“

“The food is always really tasty. The staff could be friendlier, I know it gets overwhelming but it sometimes feels like they want to just rush you off the line to attend to the next person. Small issue, honestly, the food compensates for it.“

“My wife and I had an amazing experience at Vegan I Thali! Amazing staff and we were offered delicious Avocado Tea while we waited. The samosas were incredible! The corn soup was unreal and the food was fantastic! We loved the Ethiopian vibes! Definitely recommend, especially if you eat vegan!“

“I finally was able to attend UMI's Kitchen after so many attempts by UBER and DoorDash as it always says unavailable. I was in the neighborhood and decided to stop by. I thought it was located more east on Dundas but it's actually near Dundas and Sherbourne. Toronto has tried to revive the neighborhood but, it has the same energy. I was lucky as parking is street parking so expect to park and run in to get your order. It looked closed when I got out and the door is not new but, I got in. It isn't a big place but the lady who got my order was pleasant. I ordered a small Oxtail (not cheap no more), side bbq chicken, 1 veggie and 1 beef patty, small chicken soup (good), Pineapple soda. I thought the salad would be handled but no salad like no coleslaw! I was like wow. The food is good. I really enjoyed the veggie patty wish I had gotten three of them. The bbq chicken was nice. Not hot but, it was a great add to my Oxtail meal. I was glad I finally could say I gave this place a try. I am sure others will attend. The area isn't the most desired place to attend but, it's about the food which for this day was my goal.“

“I had such a a good time. We hosted my uncle memorial here. J is awesome. Such a dynamo of good vibes! I definitely recommend this spot. The food was on point. The drinks kept coming. The laughter was endless. The people are friendly. I met a new friend from Morocco.“

“Delivered from this place for the first time and I hands down tasted the best jerk chicken meal in Toronto. The rice was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the jerk was absolutely delicious.

Definitely so happy I stopped by today“

“The best Roti in the GTA.“

“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.“

“Great food 🥘 large portions best jerk in Scarborough🙌🏾“

“First time ordering from here and I must admit their doubles are absolutely amazing. Considering my husband and I are quite selective about where we order from, this place did not disappoint. The food took 2 hours to get to us but it had nothing to do with the restaurant but rather the delivery company. The doubles were definitely worth the wait. They were perfect in flavour, thickness and portions. They held the chunna very well and perfect amount of spice. We will definitely be eating from there again.“

“The jerk chicken is Peerless. We’ve enjoyed it for years and recommend you enjoy it too.“

“If you are looking for A mix of Caribbean delights with an Asian fusion, look no further. The big bonus is that the food has food court pricing.
So you you get the taste and quality at a low cost.
In addition customer service is out of this world. If you want to be appreciated, come eat here. The ladies at the counter truly appreciate your business and your presence.
If you want to try a taste of any of their dishes, step forward and they are happy to make you fall in love with their food.
Thank you for your kindness and cooking skills!!

Ps. They are located in the food court.“

“This is one of our favourite spots to go to whenever we’re just craving a snack!! The doubles are absolutely delicious and if you like spice, you will definitely love this place !! Also, the staff is super friendly and kind so definitely give it a check out if you’re in Toronto“

“Great customer service & tasty food!“

“I had the oxtail meal and it was delicious. It was a little on the sweet side, but the flavor was excellent and everything tasted fresh and well-made. The portions were generous, and I was definitely satisfied.

The lady working there was also very friendly and welcoming, I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Oxtail plate was FIRE!!!!“

“Your tummy will thank you!“

“I live downtown and so thats the location I order from. Amazing goat curry and fried chicken. Stew oeas is delicious too.“

“This place is nostalgic for me. It has been a few years since I've been there because I moved away from the community. However, it was great to be back. The staff treated me like I was still part of the community. I even received a free patty. Thank you!“

“Food was incredible, parking can be tricky out front, I didnt try the parking behind the building, but who cares the food was so delicious. Had some crushed scotch bonnet on the side but it wasn't spicy...I think they were trying to protect me by giving me the young green ones, or maybe they mixed it with crushed green peppers? 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️ Food was amazing though, patties are also amazing, definitely going back!!!“
