I’m still in shock about how much quality food you get for such a low price. Most places charge 16$ and up for a large but you can get their large for just 10$. Not only that but the flavour is on point and it’s cooked to juicy, fall off the bone perfection. Th mall it’s located in is a little sketchy but just ignore your surroundings and focus on the delicious jerk you’re about to enjoy. This might be my new go to jerk spot when I’m in Etobicoke. I’ve tried over 30 different spots in the gta and this one makes the top 3 for price, quality, flavour and all around value. I would highly recommend trying it out if you’re in the area. Also a construction vehicle friendly parking lot is a bonus.

Quite possibly some of the best food I’ve ever eaten, stew chicken was insane, their daily specials are also super affordable

I placed my order on Uber, I ordered the jerk large w/veggies…no veggies as you can see, the chicken? Tastes old, 2-3 days old and dry, NO FLAVOR besides oil…no jerk at all, I have no idea what kind of chicken but it’s nasty, then the “curry chicken” I’ve never seen curry chicken so white, and it doesn’t even smell like curry…This place is WEIRD I was sooooo upset of course I complained because this is nasty. Would NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN… such a waste of money. Thank goodness I got a refund.

I used to come to this location with a work colleague often. The last time I was there was just before Christmas. I got 2 orders of curry goat. When I went home and went to eat the goat, there was 2 pieces of plastic in my food. I called, left a message and said that could provide a picture and/or the plastic itself to show them... and even till now, nobody has responded or called me back. So, here's the pics of the plastic... maybe they'll see them here. The clip is just there for scale

Great portions and flavors for the price. They also have daily specials for a very good price. Service maybe a bit slow when they're busy and limited staff. Rice & peas have good texture and coconut flavors, you can't go wrong with their chicken dishes and oxtail. They are tender and flavorful.

Man, I haven’t had good fried chicken with rice and peas with vegetables in a while. I would have to applaud my friend who showed me this place when I was here to meet a client and was told this place delivers the taste buds and cravings. For the price and the portion size, you’d be dumbfounded to not give this place a try. The only drag is it is a bit far, but worth it if you in the Etobicoke area and decide you want some cheap eats. They do have specials which I forgot as this is my second time visiting, only drag is the staff did not mention the days special which I probably would try as I’m new to the area (second time). Wondering if they have coleslaw for next time I visit. Miss the crunch. Medium Fried chicken for 7$.

Ate here for first time today. People were not kidding when they said they serve good food. Just paid $3.50 for 2 pc fried chicken with rice and peas, and it was delicious. I will definitely eat here again!
