Slow service, Long wait.Came to pick an order which was already ordered online ahead. They were not aware about the time. The food came out from kitchen after a waiting time of 25 minutes. Even after that, the staff at the front seemed uninterested in packing it, she took an other 10 minutes for it. Instead of being quick to pack the order which was already delayed, she was doing some other stuff.

Have gone here for years. Likely the last trip. Not sure if they have new owners or portion sizes but $12 for (1) jerk chicken thigh and a scattering of veggies is not gonna cut it for me.

First time visiting. I have a Jamaican friend whose wife was an outstanding cook. One of my favourites was curried goat. I thought I would give it a shot at Irie. The curried goat was excellent. For those of you reading this and may want to try it the goat meat is very boney so be careful when eating. The portion was generous and the price was fair

This place is incredible. Excellent customer service skills. The owner was so amazing the food is sooooo flavourful you will not be disappointed. It’s a must go. Owner is a beautiful soul I can’t believe he gave us a free dish to try. God bless this Business, you don’t find people like this anymore. Support this place you will not be disappointed I promise.

WOW! This place knows how to do it right! I ordered the large Oxtail and Jerk Chicken mix and both were PERFECT! Flavourful and tender and juicy and perfect! Proper rice and peas and that gravey just makes it that much better. I will definitely be back to see what else this gem restaurant has to offer.

Ordered a large oxtail with extra gravy on my rice n’ peas and a jerk thigh piece to try their jerk. Oxtail was next level, Rice n peas on point with steamed veggies (cabbage n carrots). Their pepper sauce was next level, proper scotch bonnet pepper mash. My gripe was the jerk. I could not taste any pimento whatsoever in the seasoning/rub. Not that the chicken was bad, it was good oven baked/roasted chicken. Don’t be afraid to add that pimento allspice. Give that chicken a good rub down marinate! Big up!

Curry Goat combo with Beef and Red Pea Soup. Goat was tender and had excellent texture. Not too many bones. The rice was cooked just right without being too dry or too moist. Curry flavour was excellent without being overpowering. Soup was full of flavour with lots of fresh vegetables and beef. Food was so good that I ended up overeating and didn't want any of it to go to waste! Good value and quantity! Highly recommended!

So delicious! We tried for the first time tonight and it didn’t disappoint! The food tasted very fresh and flavourful. The chicken is not too spicy, just right for me personally! We had the jerk chicken and stewed chicken dinner, both with coleslaw and festivals. The festivals are the biggest I’ve ever seen, and the coleslaw great! The portion sizes are HUGE! Will definitely be returning.
