Let me crystal clear about what I am about to mention. The jerk chicken is superb, I have ordered and picked up many pounds of just the Jerk chicken. Great services and the other items have been marvelous with each bite, it all tastes amazing!

Was stuck in the hospital for almost 2 weeks. Decided to order some soul food, away from home. Took a blind chance with God's help, and was divinely directed to this fine establishment. God is always right. Seriously this food gave me the energy to shave off 3 to 4 days off my hospital stay. No joke. The food gave me some kind of power. So delicious. Amen

Food was delicious & portion size was great! Be aware that they only do takeout style, so no table service, but you can eat at the tables they have. Server was not friendly at all, a bit stand-offish. Food took 30+ mins to come with no apology for the delay.

My wife and I were in the Pape and Danforth area and were looking for somewhere to eat. We came across Simone's Caribbean Restaurant and my wife, being of Jamaican descent, wanted to give this place a try. What we found was great and disappointing all at the same time. The place is just a stone's throw from the TTC Pape Subway Station, which is a great location to be in. The place is nice inside and feels very welcoming and so was the staff. There was a strange thing standing out to us, when we spoke to the person behind the counter, they explained that we can dine in, but everything is served in take-out containers. We were both very confused by this set up, but gave the food a try. My wife ordered Barbecued Chicken with rice and peas, with a side order of Festival. She loved the rice and peas, but she was disappointed with the Chicken. She said it was a little dry and only the skin had any real flavor. She liked the festival and said it was cooked well. I had the Jerk Chicken Salad, as the idea was interesting. I was very happy with it and the Jerk Chicken spice was very well balanced with the coolness of the salad. It was a great meal. We both got Beef patties to go and had them later on and found them to be decent and a great snack for later in the day. In closing, we found Simone’s a mixed bag. Some things were great while some were ok. The place not being a true “eat-in” restaurant, even though it is set up as such, was a little strange, but all in all it was a good experience and we will be back. If you want some good Caribbean take-out and live in the area, this is a great place to give a try.

We ordered takeout from Simone’s for the first time tonight. Not only was this the best Caribbean food I’ve had, it was honestly one of the best meals of my life. We ordered jerk chicken with rice and peas, and oxtail with Johnny cakes. Both came with a side of coleslaw and we added an order of cod fish fritters. Everything was incredible. The portions are very generous so we thought we would have leftovers for lunch tomorrow, but everything was so good that we couldn’t stop eating. There was a bit of a wait for the order (30min) but I would wait 3 hours for this happily if I had to. Service was also friendly. Thank you to the Simone’s team for a wonderful dinner

Simone’s was always my go to place for Caribbean food. With the Pandemic and moving away from my old place, I haven’t been able to visit in years. Man did I miss it. Jerk chicken is delicious and they provide healthy portions. I would recommend getting a side of plantains as well to round off the meal. If you’re in the area and you want good food make sure to stop by Simone’s.

The food was Amazing! One of the best cacibbean foods I have ever had in Toronto. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the place is clean and nice. We had the shrimp curry and chicken stew both were just great! The portions were big. We had to bring some back home. I Definetly will go back and recommend this place to others. The only thing I would suggest is that all their food comes in take out packaging, and thats alot of unnecessary plastic waste. The food takes about half an hour to get ready! Which really worth it but if you are in a hurry its not the best option.
