Got the Curry Goat Roti and the chicken as well. Both were really good and the portion size was big too.

I usually have the jerk, or bbq chicken meal, with a spicy beef patty Prices are great, and portion sizes are reasonable. Tasty and spicy.

Absolutely no reasons not to like this place. One of the best jerk chicken in town! Juicy and flavourful. Potatoes are perfectly cooked and. Staff is incredibly nice. I started getting take-out from Jerk King during the pandemic and has come back ever since. Never have I been disappointed!

The food was really well priced. Had the oxtail and the Moss. Where they lack is the service, everything is quick and generously portioned but the staff was not very inviting, felt rushed even though I was alone in the shop. The place is mostly for takeout cause the inside is just super hot. Otherwise, all good!

This place is really hit or miss, not sure if this is coincidence but recently whenever the black lady works the food tastes older and portions are worse. Today a coleslaw that came with my meal looked a bit more discoloured than usual, i tasted it and the mayo tasted spoiled with a sour taste, quality and portions are disappointing as of recent, as well as the flavour of the chicken changing dramatically, and the rice being too mushy. On any other occasion I would rate it 5 stars. you’re better off trying another location.

Cheap and quick place to get lunch or dinner. I like the jerky chicken here but it is a little dry. Make sure to add sauce on top of your meat. They have the food already made and people usually order to go. The oxtail is good as well but not as much meat on the bone compared to other places I’ve been. Overall, it’s good for the price you’re paying.

Wow this spot was great! I ordered the boneless spicy jerk chicken (large) and I couldn't even finish it 😝 it was so filling and the spice level was perfect. I came here for dinner and managed to find a spot to sit and dine in. Keep in mind that they do get busy since they are located on Bathurst and bloor. But I will definitely come back to enjoy a bite ☺️🤩

This is a great no-frills spot for delicious Carribean cuisine. I’m a huge fan of their jerk chicken and rice. The portion is generous and the flavour of the protein and gravy is spot on. Sometimes I also opt for fried chicken instead and I’ve never been disappointed. The location is pretty central so you’ll always find people dining in but it’s not overly crowded. Great place, worth the visit!
