My wife Anne, is Canadian born and loves the food immensely. What should you try? Start with doubles. Check on YouTube if you're not sure what that it. It is sumptuous and quite healthy. Go for the mango choka, bhaigan choka as well as the rice and peas. Try this also. Close your eyes. Let your finger drift over at least three items. Order blindly. Will you ever be in for a treat.

I hosted a beach themed bachelorette on the weekend and ordered food from here. First of all,…read morediscussing the order with them over the phone was so easy and they were very accommodating! I ordered Rice and peas, jerk chicken, and beef patties as well as salad for 10 people. It was extremely affordable. To be honest, this type of cuisine is something that I don't order frequently so I wasn't sure what to expect. The rice and peas were cooked to perfection and the jerk chicken was probably some of the best jerk chicken I've had in a very long time. I expected it to be a bit dry but there was special sauce and on the phone they mentioned they marinate their meat for over 24 hours! It sure was nice to enjoy a beef patty where you could tell it was handmade versus the frozen ones that I've been feeding myself - haha! Highly recommend enjoying this spot!

I tried the Jerk Pork with rice & peas and vegetables . I enjoyed it so much that I stopped in again...this time with my husband, before we headed back to New York. I ordered the same thing, but this time, I just had to also try their beef patties. My husband had the curry goat and a beef patty too. Once again, everything was delicious. We'll be sure to be back when we are back in the area to visit family. **Closed Sunday's ** **Takeout Only**

It doesn't need Drake to make a music video to drum up hype, the food is hype enough. My favourite is the goat curry (roti and meal) - tender chunks of goat, saucy curry with chickpeas in the right level of spice. The roti has many thin layers making it bouncy and the perfect medium to sop up the curry. Hands down one of the best rice and peas I've ever had (and I've had a lot). Gravy is perfection. The jerk is reminiscent of a Jamaican jerk, but better (not as sweet, low-med spice level). Chicken roti is a standard staple that fills you up. Portion sizes are healthy (you might want to share...but you should really get your own). Everyone needs to try it out!
