My friends and I recently went to this location in Toronto, and they were excellent. It's preferable to take the food to go because the place is small and there isn't much seating.However, if you choose to eat there, there are roughly four seats available. There is undoubtedly something for everyone among the countless alternatives. I choose to eat the chicken curry over rice with mango chutney, pickled peppers, and cold slaw on the side. Not to mention the sparkling grapefruit ting! The chicken was so flavorful and spicy that it was sliding off the bone. Other selections were barbecue chicken, jerk chicken, oxtail, and more! The beef patty I had when I returned a second time during my stay was excellent; it was flavorful and flakey. For the price, the portions are decent, and I had a ton of leftovers! The meal is worth the wait, even if the restaurant can become crowded and the staff did their best to keep things under control. When I visit Toronto again, I will definitely return! read more

Food is hit and miss. Sometimes really good other times bad. Service is okay. Portions are solid and I like the coleslaw. read more

Scotty Bons Halal Caribbean Spot is fantastic. We tried the jerk chicken, Cajun shrimp, fish, and BBQ chicken bowls--all of which were delicious. It was great to enjoy halal food that's not Middle Eastern. The staff were very friendly and even offered to take group photos for us. To all my Muslim foodies, make sure to stop by when visiting Toronto. Note that this is a cute take-out spot with a few stools if you want a quick bite. read more

We wanted to try something quick and Caribbean. This place fit the description. We ordered through Uber Eats and the order came pretty late (an hour+) even though I requested priority which should've came in 20-30mins. I ordered the Jerk Shrimp Bowl with Scotty Rice, pineapple and corn mix, and coleslaw. It came with a lot of protein and the box was stuffed! I really liked the jerk sauce because it wasn't salty or overbearing. The pineapple and corn mix was good mixed in with my rice. It was more than enough food for one person. read more

This is like a fast food restaurant but Caribbean style! It was Friday after 1pm and it was still so busy, I waited awhile before I got served. But once she got to me, I was served right away. It's mostly take out here. The food is already made and she just scooped the rice and as the fixings and done! I ordered the bowl rice and jerk chicken. Fixings were coleslaw, tomatoes salad, corn, channa & potatoes. Lots of meat. Enough for 2 meals! With taxes $15.20! That's how much it cost for 1 meal these days if you're lucky! So if your in the annex go and it looked like they had delivery too. read more

Ordered on uber eats. Food was okay. Scotty rice was a bit bland. Rice and peas were nice . BBQ chicken was well spiced Jerk wings were good too. The sauces were nice too! Wasn't a fan of the pineapple corn mix. They forgot to pack one of my drinks and asked me to place another order to come along with it or contact uber. Ended up getting a refund for the drink from uber. read more

Covid delivery review! I got curry chicken roti, coleslaw on the side and a beef patty. I asked for the curry chicken separate and they followed my instructions exactly. The roti was a dhalpurie and was filled with potato and chickpeas. I also got the Scotty sauce which added extra flavour! Very delicious and filling roti. Tasted like it was from Trinidad. The curry chicken wasn't anything spectacular but was still good. The beef patty surpassed my expectations. It was very delicious one of the best I've had. The best part was the patty itself had a great texture, not flaky which I liked. I'd recommend the potato roti and beef pie if you are reading this! read more

Really good Jerk chicken sandwich for $7. The hot sauce is hot (imagine that...) and great flavour. Good location near Spadina, will return! I'd like to try the curry. read more

The Caribbean version of chipotle. I was scared of the spicy level, but the jerk shrimp was more mild than the jerk chicken. Heard great things about this place and glad it opened downtown. read more

We found this spot near our Hotel Annex. Really good, fast Caribbean food! Yum! Friendly staff too!

I have been waiting to try this popular spot for awhile now. The staff is very friendly at this location and answered any questions I had. It was a nice warm welcome. The menu is vast and I had a hard time deciding what I wanted. I ended up going for the two sandwich combo so I could try different things. I decided on the Jerk Sandwich and the Cajun Fish Sandwich. Both sandwiches came on coco bread which was perfect in size. You get a whole lot of toppings to choose from for your sandwiches. I chose cheese, coleslaw, tomatoes and a corn salsa which had some pineapple, it was awesome! Some of the other toppings were cilantro and jalapeño peppers. There are three sauces to choose from as well. There was a lime cream sauce which I chose for the fish and and BBQ sauce which I chose for my jerk sandwich. They also have a hot sauce if you need some extra kick. The fish was fresh battered and fried while you wait. This personally for me is the only way to serve fish. You can't beat the freshness when the fish is fried to order. The fish was tender and flaky. The batter was nice and crispy. It paired well with the lime sauce. The jerk chicken was boneless and it was fall apart tender! The spice level was just right. It had some kick but it was not overwhelming. It was just spicy enough that you just wanted to keep eating! The coleslaw on the sandwich helped cool the spicy level to just right. The coco bread on both sandwiches was the perfect vessel. The bun was soft and they press it on the grill before serving which adds just a little crispness to the sandwich which is an awesome touch. If I had to choose which sandwich I liked better I would say the fish was excellent but hands down goes to the jerk chicken. (I still have to try jerk shrimp so this rating may change) I will definitely be back to explore more of the menu. I have my eye on the roti next! read more

My partner and I love this place. We only patronize a few fast food/chain-type restaurants, but if we are going to go down that route, this place is one of my top choices. I usually order the jerk chicken plate, which gives me enough food for about two meals. The fare isn't the most authentic option, but it is good for the price, convenience, location, and taste. The seating area is tiny, so food from here is best enjoyed as take-out eaten at home or the park. read more

Ordered the jerk chicken bowl. It was alright, not the best jerk chicken I've had. They did add a good amount of meat however the seasoning was okay and the ingredients altogether made it all taste soggy. The coleslaw was a bit too sweet for my liking. However it's a good portion for the price. Not a lot of tables to sit in, definitely a more take out spot. Service was nice-they explain everything to you if you need help with the ingredients. read more

I wanted something quick to eat at work. This place is fine. I am a bit resistant to it because it's not really authentic per se, but it is perfectly fine for what it is. I had a ting while I was here. I also liked the special that they had. It wasn't too spicy, it was .. fine. I wouldn't go out of my way for it, but I would have it for a work lunch. read more

The food is stellar. You really can't go wrong with anything you pick. Personally I alternate between the jerk and bbq chicken. If you happen to go make sure you don't get attended by the Asian girl with short hair. She uses her hands to measure out the corn so you get just a sprinkle of food. She picks the smallest pieces of chicken and ignores her coworkers when they tell her they're small. For $15+ I'd really prefer not to get getting ripped off. I like the food but I'm willing to go to Kensington market at this point. read more

Tried Scotty Bons for dinner last night and ordered through Uber Eats. We got the Combo #1 which included 2 sandwiches, 2 beef patties, jerk seasoned fries, and 2 drinks. I got the veggie curry sandwich which is made of chickpeas, potatoes, and a lot of great seasoning. You can customize your sandwiches with any of their toppings so I added the coleslaw, corn and pineapple salad, tomatoes, cheese, jalapeños, medium hot sauce and scotty sauce. They come on fluffy soft cocobread that soaks up all the good flavour and juices. The sandwich was super fresh, all the ingredients were flavourful and delicious. The hot sauce also had a good kick to it and I really liked the way it tasted. The jerk seasoned fries on the side were spicy and went great with the sandwiches. They were a little soggy but that really can't be helped with takeout. The portion was also very generous and overall a really great value for money with this combo. I definitely want to go back to Scotty Bons to try out their bowls, with their special Scotty rice. I would also definitely go back to have this sandwich. 10/10 recommend!! read more

If you like authentic Jamaican this place isn't the for you. We got the jerk chicken and BBQ platter. Flavours were just weird not what I was used to with Caribbean food. Rice and peas wasn't good either. It's halal tho so that's a plus .. read more

Eaten the jerk chicken bowl a couple of times now - with oxtail gravy. Nicely spicy and delicious! They use deboned chicken thighs for the jerk from what I can tell, making it easy to scarf it down. read more

Everything tasted so fresh and delicious. We ordered a Cajun fish sandwich, BBQ chicken sandwich, beef patties and jerk seasoned French fries. read more

Love the bbq chicken bowl and have been here multiple times. The service really depends on who attends you. If you get certain employees they'll spread the rice very thinly around so it barely covers the foil ,and place the smallest pieces of chicken so it's looks covered. I'm actually still hungry after eating here now, it didn't use to be like this. read more

Good amount of food. Delicious . Recommended jerk chicken bowl. Really spicy even though I choose mild. Jerk fries delicious as well but super . Recommend overall. read more

Incredible portion sizes here. Only thing knocking a star off for me was that there was quite a bit of oil. Or maybe that was because I asked for too many sauces. Anyways, I will be back for sure, loved the Cajun Fish sandwich, really nice sized piece of fish for under $7, great value! read more

The new dark skin African Canadian worker there today on Sunday May 30, 2021 does not seem to belong there; super unfriendly, gives half of the normal portions of food. I gave her and her colleague feedback. Hopefully other customers are treated better. read more

I must have gotten the same server as Jennifer O. Horrible attitude. At first I thought it was me but I guess she was having another bad day. She offers me the meal for free. No explanation why. Just paid and left. Would have preferred an apology instead if she felt that bad. During a pandemic, you would think they would treat their customers better for coming out. read more
