    Thin Roti, conch filling!
    Bill W.

    Over the years this little counter-service restaurant has not lost its charm or authenticity. Always service with a smile, and when you enter you're instantly transported to Trinidad. Today I had goat roti with extra spice. Tender and flavorful chunks of goat, authentically with some bones. Their scotch bonnet hot sauce is an LC specialty... you can get bottles of it to go. A little goes a long way. The strip mall LC's is in has other Caribbean restaurants and businesses. The shared parking lot is a bit chaotic; persevere because the roti is definitely worth it!

    I came by for an early lunch with some open spots in the parking lot. My first time coming here they weren't open at the same time. All the employees were very nice. The goat Roti was good with some large pieces of meat. The inside has a very humble feel. Nothing flashy. I will be back for another.

    This was pleasant run in as we were about running errands in the area. We used to go to this Roti Restaurant in Orlando and I've missed the flavors so much. I loved that they make the Roti right in front of you fresh. Every person we spoke to that worked there was warm and took their time to make recommendations. The small kicker is that they only accept cash. Luckily, we had some on us but that's not the usual case. Just a heads up in case you check them out. I ate the veggie Roti and it was a hint of spicy chickpeas and the sweetness of the sweet potato. I want more and am kicking myself for not buying extra to eat later. Next time I'm coming back for their conch Roti...and their veggie one lol We will be back

    Such a good spot for roti and doubles. The food is always amazing and made fresh! The service is great, such a welcoming place and quick to receive your food. They also sell their pepper sauce by the bottle, grab one! Only thing to keep in mind is that they only take cash. Highly recommend!

    Not the best doubles I've had but it'll do when you need a fix. This place is cash only

    Why is there a dog in the kitchen? Right next to where food is cooking. Not very sanitary. Dog looked very comfortable.

    Friends took me to this Roti shop that they visit every time they are in Miami. It's a hole in the wall place in a strip mall run by a strong, friendly Trinidadian woman who is proud of her offerings. They specialize in homemade roti which is a fresh super-thing bread (like a big tortilla) filled with spicy fillings of veg and meat. We had the conch, vegetable, goat and potato options. The conch (a sea snail) is abundant and tender with chickpeas and potatoes. The goat was tender and soft. The roti are very filling and satisfying. I couldn't finish mine. This was worth going out of your way for. They run $15 a piece but are a very substantial meal.

    Although this spot is a little out of my way, it's quickly becoming one of my favorite Trini places…read morein South Florida. Like... worth the drive every time. Service is always fast and friendly, and you can either dine in or take it to go. When you walk in, you order at the counter. They've got the hot food station right there with options displayed behind the counter so you can see exactly what you're getting (dangerous in the best way lol). Some items -- like the rotis and fry bakes -- are cooked fresh when you order. Then there's the fresh doubles station, where they assemble your doubles right in front of you. I've stopped in plenty of times before, but these past two weeks I was deep in my Trini breakfast cravings, so I went twice and tried two different classics. First visit: I got a fry bake with all the things -- baigan choka (grilled, mashed, seasoned/spiced eggplant), tomato choka (grilled, mashed, seasoned/spiced tomatoes, fried aloo (potatoes), buljol (shredded saltfish with tomatoes, onion, peppers done the Trini way), and smoked herring sautéed with Trini herbs. The breakfast usually comes with the fry bake or sada roti and 2-3 sides... but listen! Everything looked too good, so I ordered extra sides. And I'm glad I did. It was flavorful, comforting, and honestly reminded me of my mom's home cooking. A real-deal Trini breakfast. Second visit: I went back for the bake and shark -- because if it's on the menu, I'm ordering it. Another iconic Trini classic street food, cooked fresh when you order. The fry bake was soft and fluffy, stuffed with perfectly fried shark, and topped with a nicely seasoned lettuce/coleslaw-style mix. Great size, super satisfying, and absolutely hit the spot. And yes -- I always ask for their in-house hot pepper sauce. They make it fresh daily and it has a serious spicy kick (the kind Trinis appreciate). Even though I went for breakfast, everything in the hot food station looked so good that I couldn't leave without grabbing boneless curry chicken with paratha roti to take home for later. They also have a bone-in chicken option, because some of us Trinis need the bone for full flavor, okay lol but I got boneless. I've had their paratha before -- soft, fluffy, and perfect for soaking up curry. Their curries are always well-seasoned and full of flavor. By the register, they sell traditional Trini snacks and sweets -- things like kurma, chocolates, and fudge. I grabbed the fudge this time and whew... it was rich, creamy, and dangerously good. Like "why did I not buy two?" good. You do get 4 fudge squares in the pack. All in all, I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. I've never had a bad meal here, and I'll absolutely keep making the drive whenever my Trini cravings hit again. Tabanka stays delivering

    I am ethnolinguistically deaf when it comes to the accent of the fine people of Trinidad. It might…read morebe the inflection or the use of unique words, but while I definitely hear English, it sounds scrambled, as though I were missing the decryption key. So when my RA announced that my first college roommate would be arriving from Chaguanas, I fully expected a Mexican guy. Instead, Vivek turned out to be Indo‑Trinidadian. For months, he asked me a ton of questions, and because I felt rude asking him to repeat himself, I'd respond with, "Yeah mon." (I still don't know why, he isn't Jamaican). If he gave me a pouty face, I'd say, "Naaaah." One Sunday, halfway through the semester, he woke up first and asked, "Yuh hungrry ahwah?" "Yeah mon," I replied. He shrieked, grabbed his keys, and bolted straight out of the house wearing a tie‑dye Ganesh T‑shirt, shower shoes, and white, 1970s‑era style basketball shorts. Somehow, it worked for him. As he ran down the stairs, he yelled back, "Yuh dotish ahwah, come boy?!" Thirty minutes later, the scent of onions, curry, and chilis filled the air. A group of older guys making a ruckus while watching cricket on an iPad greeted us like long‑lost relatives. One handed me a plastic cup filled with a brown liquid that smelled like Banana Now n' Laters and said, "Don study it. Drink up." My mouth, esophagus, and stomach immediately staged an intervention. With crossed arms and a stern dad voice, they declared: NO MORE OVERPROOF RUM! In response, Vivek sighed, "Miss Mataji (I miss my mom)." and handed me my first Double, a curried chickpea stuffed fry bread, as a chaser. Then came an Aloo Pie, basically an empanada stuffed with spiced mashed potatoes, followed by a friendly slap on the back as one of the cricket connoisseurs shoved a Carib Lager into my hand. Fifteen minutes in, I had already consumed two drinks, so whatever I ate next needed to be hearty. Though the Oxtail tempted me, I respected my vegetarian friend's dietary restrictions. I ordered a Buss‑Up‑Shot or a chopped, griddled roti that crisps as it cooks, paired with a Vegetarian Combo of channa (chickpeas), curried potatoes, roasted pumpkin, and a creamed spinach‑like side called bhagge. I washed it all down with the first pear soda of my life: Peardrax. Though the Pholourie, lentil‑dough hushpuppies served with chutneys weren't sweet, they somehow became dessert. I paired them nicely with an Apple‑J, or carbonated fruit juice that tasted like childhood. Vivek didn't miss his mom for long. Apparently, he had tried out for the Trini national soccer team, the Soca Warriors, during his secondary school years. In true Caribbean fashion, it took nearly 10 months to get a callback. Semester be damned, he left the following weekend. Though I'll never forget the impromptu going‑away party, in the end, I have never learned to decode the Trinidadian accent. I do know that when friends share their food and culture with you, you become universally fluent in their language.
