    Beef patties
    Khalil P.

    Made a stop here after I visited Kim's convenience, because I wanted a good snack close by. I decided to get patties and this was the closest place. The woman at the counter was really nice, helpful and efficient. I got 2 beef patties and they were good. I would've tried more things if I was hungrier. The area is definitely sketchy so I wouldn't stay around but if I'm ever close by again I'll make a stop here again

    So today I decided after always walking by this place and living in the area for years that I would check Umi's out. I love Caribbean food and jerk chicken. I called them and they had their lunch specials on till 3 so I was happy cause it was 2pm. I walk in and ordered the jerk chicken lunch combo they advertise for $5. The lady at the counter had earphones in and clearly couldn't be bothered to care - just wanted to keep it transactional. The place looked grungy as well but hey, the hole in the wall places sometimes can be the best so I took a chance. Whatever, I'm here to get some supposed delicious food as described by the other reviews and leave. I come home and open the special to see 1 small piece of a bigger piece of meat. I realize this is a lunch special but damn, this sure is special. I am so irritated. It's all rice and I paid $5 bucks. Never will I go back and I will tell everyone NOT to go there.

    We came during a lunch special, didn't even know it ! 4.99 for Jerk Chicken and Curry chicken. So good ! We're coming back before we leave Canada

    Stopped by to get a spicy beef Jamaican patty ($2). It was so warm and delicious! Great quick bite.

    Yo, Umi's Kitchen is sick. The chicken is so yummy and Moona is a sweetheart. The $5 lunch special is a real life-saver. Respect.

    Delicious jerk chicken on salad! Very flavourful yet not too heavy! Stuffed Jamaican party was also a nice balanced addition.

    Pastable - Opening Special ($6.99): Mac N Cheese with BBQ Chicken and drink

    Pastable is a food stall focusing on bowls of fusion pasta. The main components are one pasta, one…read moreprotein, one sauce, and three toppings. Everything is 100% halal. This is their second location, in a build with 3 other food vendors. It is mostly a takeout restaurant. There is a small counter where you could stand and eat. There are six set combinations. Or you can build your own pasta (BYOP) combo. On the soft-opening day (2025-01-20), they were offering an opening special of Mac N Cheese with BBQ Chicken sample and a drink for only $6.99. I ordered the following: 1. BYOP: Garlic Shrimp, penne, rose sauce, broccoli, black olives, mushrooms. It automatically comes with sliced green peppers and chopped parsley. 2. Opening Special ($6.99) x 2. For the BYOP, they didn't warn me it was medium spicy. I can handle it with a cold drink! The shrimp and penne were perfectly cooked. I loved the rose sauce. My choices of broccoli,  black olives, and mushrooms worked well together and with the base. The Opening Special was delicious; the Mac n Cheese part and BBQ Chicken were really good! Unfortunately, the BBQ was mildly spicy, and my son didn't like it; more for me! The customer service was good. It took them a long time to prepare the food (there were many orders prior to mine). But it was opening day, so hopefully, they will speed up their cooking. There is no free WiFi. The food stall is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-014

Staff are always around for questions you may have or menu suggestions and were always very kind to us. The vibe was great and we can't wait to go back!

    I am always a bit skeptical when it comes to fusion spots. Typically, in my experience, usually the…read morecuisine leans more towards one side not necessarily fusing the two flavors well together. Similarly while I would not consider this quite a fusion restaurant, the food was indeed delicious! Most of the rice sides, had furikake sprinkled on top which always enhances the flavor. The sushi selection was good! The top items for me were the cod and lobster/shrimp udon. Again neither were quite executed as fusion (IMO) but nonetheless it was delicious! The steak was also good, but steak is more readily available on most menus elsewhere. The potato and egg salad as an app also made the top list. It was super creamy and paired nicely with the crunchy chips! The endless drink menu/option is also excellent, except I am not sure how much alcohol was actually in there because within the group of 13 people, most of us did not feel even slightly tipsy. The ambiance is beautiful and really embraces a jungle with vibrant colors intertwined into the interior. the bathroom however, is a different story as it is at the end of a very dark hallway. Not sure if they turn the lights on at night, but for someone with poor vision, it was hard to see as the light reflected off the walls. The servers were friendly and with a large group like ours, we did have some dishes that just never made it out so we did need to flag someone down for them about an hour or so in.
