Chris Jerk never disappoints, I ordered the jerk chicken shawarma poutine over the phone. They informed me in 10 minutes it would be ready and it was when I got there. The fries were hot fresh and crispy, grave and chicken were flavourful. Ask for the hot sauce to give it that extra kick!

The jerk chicken is incredibly flavorful, moist and tender. I've been coming here for years and always have a fantastic experience.

My Aunt lives on Pharmacy and Finch and highly recommended that we visit. It definitely did not disappoint. This place is exclusively take-out. The impressive variety of easy-to-navigate Menu items, fiery, smoky vibrant spices, and depth of flavor is already making me look forward to returning the next time I am in town from the US. We ordered jerk chicken wings, jerk chicken legs, and jerk chicken breast for a total of five people. It was perfect.

Food was good. I think it's over hyped but I wouldn't mind coming back again. Gravy is delicious. I like the rice but I wish they had regular white rice. They do sell shawarma in there also so that threw me off. Again it's not a typical carribean restaurant but it is good

There's a famous online Jamaican restaurant that’s closed two days a week and only offers takeout. The food there, to be honest, is probably the least photogenic of any cuisine out there, really proving that looks and quality are often inversely related. Jerk Chicken is really good, though—I’ve got to give a special shoutout to their sweet plantains.

I ordered the curry chicken with rice and peas. The chicken was well seasoned and delicious, but the highlight was the rice! The best I've ever tried honestly. I enjoyed every bite of my meal. The serving was so generous that I actually had the rest for dinner. I ordered the king fish with provision for my mom, and she had enough food leftover as well. The staff was very friendly and their system (from ordering to getting the food) is quite effective, given the small space and how busy it gets in there! I have previously tried the jerk chicken poutine and it was also great. The portions are always so filling. Hiiiiiiiighly recommend!

I tried the popular jerk chicken (breast) poutine there is different options so that's why I specified just check the menu, I must say it lived up to expectations of flavor and enjoyment with crispy fries moist chicken breast that's right moist not dry with the mixture of the gravy on top and shredded cheese, hot sauce is nice to me but it's a creeper with the heat giving you a kick in the back of your tongue after tasting the flavor. The service was okay, staff could work on being more welcoming to people as they walk into the establishment to place a order. While waiting for my food to be ready a young lady walked in to get a refund for the food she ordered being polite and quiet about it so make sure to check your order before leaving.
