“I recently ate at Hutchie Catering while on vacation. This is a Caribbean treasure nestled away in Toronto. When I entered the restaurant, I was met with friendly service and a delicious aroma of spices drifting from the kitchen. The ambiance was appealing, with Caribbean music playing in the background, making me feel nostalgic back to Trinidad. I got a chicken roti (impeccable I must say) and jerk chicken takeout, which tasted even better the next day, much to my surprise. Make sure to purchase a bottle of pepper sauce; it's my absolute favorite and really tasty. I definetly recommend it as a Trinidadian.“
“Muy Rico! Con las 3 B Bueno, bonito y barato.I had the boneless chicken jerk and the fried chicken with rice. They offered to put gravy on the rice which made it even more delicious. Everything was excellent, the food, the service and the atmosphere.I was looking at their plants while waiting for my order. At the end they made sure I had everything I asked for.The portions are amazing for what you pay.The hot sauce is very good but because I'm Mexican the amount was to small for me.“
“We really enjoyed our experience at Veggie D’light. I called ahead since we were coming from Oshawa and the woman on the phone was very friendly and helpful. We then travelled to one of our favourite places Kensington Market to this restaurant. They were welcoming and offered us a taste of the soup since we had travelled so far. It was delicious. We placed our order and ordered enough for dinner the next day too! The food was very tasty and loved the roti shell! ( not too hot though and we like the heat) we were offered scotch bonnet sauce but I find that too much. We really enjoyed our food, good portions for the cost. We would definitely recommend and definitely will return!“
“This place is FANTASTIC-friendly, attentive service, spic and span casual dining area and beautifully prepared Jamaican Fare served up in hefty portions, and in much nicer take out containers than your standard styrofoam, to boot! Also- SMOKED jerk pork?!?? BRING YOUR APPETITE, HONEY!!!! Tdot Jerk is off the chain!!!“
“I always walk past this spot looking at the posted menus and never stepped in to try. Until now and which happens to be Fathers Day and I must say was not disappointing. Alcoholic drinks did not chinks on the servings.Food presentations was awesome, price per servings matched and the taste was empicable. Must say it definitely deserved 2 thumbs up. Would recommend it do anyone“
“Originally mistook this pleasant little place as a 'sit down' restaurant. My friend I were looking for vegan Ethiopian fare, but didn't realize that it was a 'take away' outlet and mini grocery store . That did not matter, the kind woman who was looking after us that night, made room for us; make shift chairs and proceeded to prepare amazing food. She fed us freshly made items and that were very delicious. She prepared Ethiopian coffee. It was like being in someone's home. I actually picked up a couple of grocery items (nutritional yeast for one). Overall, a surprise visit on a very cold January evening, but it worked out remarkably well. Hospitality was top notch. Thank you! አመሰግናለሁVegetarian options: Just go and visit. The grocery items along the wall will cater to almost every vegan or vegetarian's needs. The place smells glorious. Nutritional yeast was/is great! Go in and someone will definitely help you.Dietary restrictions: If you're vegan, or lactose intolerant: no worries here! The servings are plentiful and delicious. No compromise on taste whatsoever.“
“Celebrated my wife’s birthday with a meal at Patois. We ordered the prefixed tasting menu and boy did it deliver! Great variety in the dishes cooled and you could really see the efforts made to fuze Asian and Caribbean cooking. We especially enjoyed the bo lo bao burger and fried chicken. Washed everything down with a cold bottle of Red Stripe. I almost felt like it was my birthday with how much I enjoyed. Will definitely return to try other items on the menu!“
“I highly recommend this Jamaican restaurant for its incredible cuisine the service was impeccable, with the cashier being particularly friendly and helpful and it has a exquisite captivating atmosphere. It's an absolute must-visit for anyone craving an authentic taste of Jamaica.“
“Hakka N Jerk offers a tantalizing fusion of Hakka and Jamaican cuisine. With dishes like Jerk Chicken Spring Rolls and Hakka Chili Chicken,schezwan fried rice the menu bursts with flavor. Friendly service make it a top pick for a memorable experience.“
“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.“
“Probably the best chicken curry roti I've had since moving to Toronto 6 months ago.Kind of stumbled on this place while walking around the mall. Glad I stopped in.Service was very good. Nice and fast.Their chicken roti is not like a wrap but open faced roti in a bowl with potatoes and a pile of boneless chicken curry piled on. You have to fork and knife it.To me, this is what roti should be like. It's more the caribbean style vs Indian.The flavour was great. Loads of nice tender chicken pieces. Forget all the other places and just go here for your fix.Thank you!“
“Highly recommend! Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine is one of my favourite restaurants in the city! I’ve had them cater twice and both times have been blown away. The food is so spectacular, people were coming back for a third serving! The jerk-chicken is a must! The chef and owner, Keith, is amazing. Had such a great experience and received the best service. Many thanks to Keith and the Scotthill team! Will definitely be back with another order soon!“
“An amazing homey place with delicious food. Service is great and the workers are so nice. Beef patties are spectacular.Parking: The parking is almost always available and affordable.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly with nice people working there.“
“Just picked up a Cafe con Leche at the Sick Kids Farmers Market - I think I have found my go to coffee spot on Tuesdays during the summer! Can't wait to try the other items! Love the vintage caravan too :D Going through the menu one item at a time (*indicate my absolute faves so far - the others will not let you down though): Little Havana, Cafe Bon Bon*, No-jito Mojito - lime, mango, pina*“
“Seriously delicious flavours, friendly, fun staff, creative cocktails all in a beautiful space. As soon as we walked through the door we we were hit with the sweet aroma of the spices of the Caribbean. The vibe is warm and inviting. I suggested trying this place to some colleagues. As someone from Jamaica I have high standards for the flavours of the Caribbean. Everyone at the table and I mean everyone enjoyed it. Everything is served family style. I don’t eat meat so we enjoyed the fish and vegetarian options. The 6 of us shared the salt cod fritters, nuff nuff slaw, doubles, fried snapper, crab XO, coconut rice and Mac pie. We were full up!! Probably ordered a dish too many but it was worth it. If you’re used to traditional Caribbean flavours you will not be disappointed. I will definitely be back either for a quick cocktail before an event or for another delicious meal.“
“The food was very tasty, the atmosphere was captivating. They had a live band playing at the time. They played a lot of classics. The walls were decorated with clippings of different Caribbean islands. I couldn’t stop reading. Only takeaway was the portion sizes. One bakes was split in half in my “
“Always good there f the ood is real carribean roti style .So I started going back to Alis .because I loved it so much in the past have don't get me wrong taste is great but now when I get my roti wrapped it was just dough I mean that is ridiculous just dough roti dry and almost choked us .so if you gonna buy your roti don't get it wrapped .if you like it wrapped wrap it yourself because when they do you get nothing on the inside and I find that as very dishonest.. I'm not sure if I'm gonna spend my money their with people who robbing you. The roti hut tates better anyways so BOOM. .I found another roti place that don't scam me out if my money and serve ten ponds of dough deceive me had me thinking my roti fat for 17 dollars and then nothing on the inside bare flour..You guys expanded and then start to get greedy with people. NOT COOL AT ALL TO LOYAL CUSTOMERS.“
“Roti Shop Shines with Five-Star Excellence! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐My recent experience at Roti Shop was nothing short of exceptional, earning this establishment a well-deserved five stars!From the moment I entered, the warm and inviting aroma of freshly prepared rotis filled the air. The menu offered a delightful variety of choices, each promising an authentic taste of culinary excellence. I opted for the classic chicken curry roti, and it was a revelation. The roti was perfectly flaky, and the chicken curry was an explosion of flavours that left my taste buds dancing with joy.“
“Big up yourself Mark! It was my first time visiting Caribbean Queen Jerk. Growing up in a Jamaican household, I can tell you for sure that this food is authentic. Mark is a humble and genuine soul. I got ackee and saltfish, hominy porridge and curry chicken with ground provisions. Service and food 10/10 and prices are extremely reasonable.I will be back!“
“I have no idea why I waited so long to visit this gem of an iconic Jamaican restaurant.Today was my first time visiting and let me tell you it won't be my last!The Chicken Roti was amazing! The Roti literally weighed 5 pounds they really stuff it with a lot of chicken and potatoes.And they serve that signature coleslaw on the side as well!The food gets a 100 out of 100!Can't wait to go back to try some more dishes!Well I went back after a couple of days and I got me some Jerk Chicken with Rice & Peas and Fried Plantains!You gotta eat here it's phenomenal and your taste buds will thankyou!Also the customer service is amazing.

“First time trying Jerk Up Central and I was very happy I did. Lots of great parking, very friendly shop owner and damn good food!! I was hoping to try the Cow Foot special but it wasn't available, I did try the large jerk chicken, ox tail and jerk pork. All three were delicious and great portion sizes. Not to mention, the price is well worth the portion. Keep up the great food and prices Jerk Up!“
“Food was delicious, service was good. Only wish there was a bit more light. I understand wanting to create a particular ambience with the lighting and decoration, but the lights were too dim.Had to take out my phone and turn the flashlight on after the food arrived to be able to look at it.“
“Wow wow wow as a Jamaican now I can say I found a real Jamaican restaurant who understands Jamaican taste I have tried so many restaurants and tell you the truth it’s garbage I swear these Jamaican restaurants cooking for Canadian born people if you are a Jamaican and you want to taste that real authentic Jamaican food this the place to be ????????????????????????“

“I like to go with friends to this place with my highest recommendations. I visit this place often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are appetizing and the stuff is efficient and cooperative. Every time we go to this place we pass a splendid evening. I recommend this place with pleasure.“
“I live in this place with my family. and I am so happy. I did ordered the jerk fries ?, jerk chicken meals and doubles with home sauce homemade drinks. it was absolutely delicious. The food was well seasoned , rice was properly cooked and the roti was so soft and delicious. They also have beef and chicken Pattie’s. I had a chicken pattie and the crust was so smooth and flaky with just the right amount of meat. I enjoy the food in house with my family. All family members were very happy with all foods. I think Right now something offers is running if you buy jerk fries then comes one drink and one chips free. it’s awesome deals. Check the latest deals. this is Caribbean shop and it is amazing and awesome ? (5 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ) ?? And good service was provided by Anthony and Surya. They are friendly.“
“Love this place, and forever will. It hits home for me. Anytime I'm in the area I always make sure to grab extra. Anytime my partner is around!!! Lol He knows the drill. Hands down they in my top 5. Shout out to all the cooks that bring that real back home cooking.“
“We love Island Foods! We were regulars when it was over on King. But it closed and we moved out of the neighborhood. So this is our first time at this location - and it did not disappoint. I had my fav - boneless goat roti. The trick is to eat in and order it with gravy on the top. Lot of deep rich curry gravy really makes it into something special. It's the best thing!“
“A Birthday Bash to Remember at The Diner's Corner! Gather 'round, fellow adventurers, as I spin a tale of friendship, reggae, and the most delicious rum punches you've ever tasted!Last night, we celebrated my dear friend Schevon's birthday in style at The Diner's Corner, and let me tell you, it was a night to remember! From the Irie vibes casting a warm glow to the dancehall tunes filling the air, stepping into this restaurant was like stepping onto a sandy beach in Jamaica!But first, a toast to Schevon – a friend whose light shines brighter than the neon signs outside! With drinks in hand and smiles on our faces, we raised our glasses to another year of adventures, laughter, and unforgettable moments.Now, let's talk about the food. Oh, the food! From oxtail to saucy wings that disappeared faster than you can say "seconds, please," every bite was a symphony of flavor.But amidst the delicious dishes and lively ambiance, it was the company that truly made the night special. Surrounded by friends who feel like family, we laughed, we toasted, and we celebrated Schevon in all her fabulousness.As we bid farewell to The Diner's Corner, our bellies full and our hearts even fuller, I couldn't help but feel grateful for nights like these – where laughter reigns supreme, and memories are made to last a lifetime. Happy birthday, Schevon – here's to many more adventures together!“
“I would like to take this opportunity to say a Huge " Thank You " to Mr. Courtney and all the Wonderful ladies ( forgive me I forget their names so much going on at the time) for welcoming my family on February 19th for a Birthday Lunch. There was about 25 of us and everything was Amazing.We were Warmly greeted as soon as we arrived, the owner ( Mr. Courtney) came out and welcomed us, told us a bit of History of the restaurant and also what the buffet consisted of that day.We had a great time, the food was Delicious, lots of dishes to choose from. I am an oxtail person and it was DELICIOUS! Again, THANK YOU FOR YOUR HOSPITALITY. I Highly recommend this Buffet.Kathy & Family.“
“Mary and Magnus are dedicated owners that consistently make sure they are doing their best to serve quality food with amazing service.Rasta Pasta has grown over the years because they have fined tuned their dishes and the community recognizes that.The jerk chicken is out standing! The flavour is on point. Magnus is often found tending the classic barrel bbq/smoker. Mary is always smiling and serving up beautiful & tasty beverages. The one item that is a sure-shot are the stuffed dumplings. Wow! The Jerk Dumpling is the best dumpling I have ever tasted. Amazing.Anyhow, with so many spots to choose from in Kensington Market, Rasta Pasta is a MUST!You will not regret it!“
“My first time here after hearing good things about the price and product. Place was non-stop busy on a mid Thursday afternoon. Take out only., cash or debit only. Very friendly and helpful staff. "Seconds" (I can't tell the difference) are $7.00 for a bag or twelve frozen. I bought two bags because they are truly a bargain. A large variety of Carribean food available but we did not try on this visit. However, a long line of people were getting take-out so they have an excellent reputation. Place is not wheelchair accessible. Only down side is limited parking for their popularity...maybe ten spots maximum. However, they do have a parking security guy in the lot keeping things moving and orderly. Tried they "spicy" version patties when we got home. Absolutely delicious. This will be a regular spot for me. Highly recommend.“
“Today, with the beautiful weather, I had a real craving for Jerk Chicken. I checked out Good Vibes and ordered a Jerk Chicken dinner. As I’m writing this, I am savouring the sweet and spicy Jerk sauce that perfectly coats the chicken. The meat is fresh and tender. The rice and beans is just yummy and the coleslaw is a nice cool down. Service was super friendly and love the artwork on the walls. Great music! I’m so glad that I walked into Good Vibes today! Delicious food! Good Vibes all the way. I will definitely be back!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“My partner and I enjoyed the personable, homey feel of Pam's upon entry. Their staff are very nice and welcoming.We split the jerk chicken lunch special. The food was excellent, and at only $9, quite inexpensive. We do wish that the quantity was a bit better, as there were only 2 small pieces of bone-in chicken, which is a bit light for a lunch. Our samosa was also delicious.“
“First time trying this restaurant. When we arrived our contact information was taken and were asked to go to the washroom to wash our hands. Then we were seated. Great customer service, sweet reggae music in the background, nice size portions and everything we ordered tasted good (stew beef with dumplin and green banana, bbq chicken w/ rice and peas and curried shrimp roti. We will be 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“
“After months of driving past and being unable to stop I finally found my chance. Just amazing. Got the basic beef patty and basic chicken. Pastry was soft and flaky. Fillings were great in both. So much better than the basic frozen ones you tend to find reheated nowadays. And the interior was really bright and inviting. Will be back to try the other options, for sure!!!“
“I went to Royal Caribbean Cafe twice for dinner. It is not a typical dining restaurant. You ordered the food at the counter and the food arrive in a takeout containers. There wasn't much service.The food was pretty good. I had the goat curry and fried chicken. I stuck to what I know, but there was wide variety of Jamaican dishes.Would I go back? Yes, since the food was pretty good.“
“Tasty food, awesome atmosphere, smallish portions.Ordered bunch of dishes to share.Appetizers. Ackee & saltfish bites were quite delicious, but the fritters didn’t really taste like anything other than plain fried dough.Mains. Jerk chicken was very good, perfect level of spicy. Oxtail was super tender, melt in your mouth, rice and peas were also great. Curry goat was good, but not particularly special. Pan seared snapper fillet was the HIGHLIGHT of the night, big flaky pieces of flesh, sauce was so nice and creamy, vegetables and other toppings paired great.Overall fun and tasty experience. Although I understand why they include 20% gratuity for larger groups, I just personally don’t think a party of 6 was big enough to demand a surcharge.“
