“Title: A Taste of the Tropics!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Just had an amazing meal at Tropical Island Caribbean Restaurant! It truly felt like a mini-vacation. The food was top-notch – the jerk chicken had the perfect kick, and those plantains were heavenly. The staff were so friendly and made the whole experience even better. If you're in the mood for authentic Caribbean flavors and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the place to go!“
“Great lunch today at Cavallino Wine Bar. I am an Italian, born and raises in Italy and I honestly felt at home. The food is delicious and definitely fresh. The Brunelli wine I drunk is something unbelievable, from Lambardi. Check it out my pictures!!“
“This is some of the best Caribbean food I’ve had in years. The Mac and cheese pie and bbq chicken were packed with flavor. The stew chicken and roti were divine as well. I got takeout and it was perfect. It was hot, fresh, and delicious. I can’t wait to visit in person. The food really reminds me of home.“
“Definitely a hidden Gem!Love the food here, paratha roti so buttery flaky and delicious always made fresh. Curry chicken is always cooked to perfection always fresh never dry. Not to mention the service is always outstanding such friendly people who love what they do and are always accommodating. This place is worth the wait for amazing quality, if you're in a rush I suggest ordering ahead.“
“This place is a hidden gem. The location might be isolated but the quality of food will leave remarkable impressions to come back for more.My favorite order is the Oxtail. It's perfectly cooked; with meat falling off the bones partnered with a side of sauteed carrots that complement each other. ?“
“Upon entering the restaurant, it was clean. The overall vibe was great! Now the food was AMAZING! Hands down the best piece of snapper fish I've had in a long time. Everything from the rice too the shrimp and down to the mac pie was fantastic. The flavor is definitely in every bite. The staff is also very friendly and the overall service is excellent. 5 stars is not enough for this place. 10/10!!!“

“Wow curry goat roti was great lots of flavour, only medium so I needed some more spice at $17 it isn’t cheap but it’s big enough that half will do. The chicken lunch special is the spot at $10, the other picture here is doubles very soft and flavourful, has some sweet heat in it to make it really nice. Lena ur “
“Exceptional service from Larry! I had a small complaint that I filled out on a survey I got with my text receipt. Within 5 minutes while I was still eating my food, I found Larry approach me with a free slice of cake, an apology, and an explanation regarding my comment from earlier. His approach was super quick and went above and beyond to make me a happy customer.“
“The best Caribbean food I’ve found in Toronto and definitely the area. We love their jerk chicken (with rice and peas or the potatoes) and ox tail, especially the ox tail pasta. Incredible place, friendly people. I recommend ordering in advance to cut down on wait time.“
“Owner is cool and the worker , at first I thought they are not friendly but after over n over going they are absolutely good heart in person , food is fantastic always new cooked , what I like there is the roti with stuffing all kind for one order is a lot for one person ,“
“First time trying this place. My husband and I each got a lunch special bowl for $10 each but it was so much food we ended up sharing one and saved the other one for dinner! The place was very clean and the staff was very friendly!! I'm definitely coming back.“

“Admittedly, my wife and I aren’t that familiar with Caribbean cuisine, but Orlando welcomed us with open arms.The “Jerk Chicken” was insanely good! Flavour exploding with a hint of heat and delicate smoky undertone. My wife had the “Braised Oxtail” that vanished in mere minutes.We will be back for sure!“
“I felt like a roti on my way back to Ottawa and was in the Brampton area. I googled “Trini” roti places and this popped up. Ordered the goat roti hot, doubles hot and some pholourie( tamarind sauce so good) Everything was on point, try not to judge based on the look of the place. He said they are coming to Ottawa so I’m happy about that!“
“This restaurant is in a class all by itself.As soon as you walk in the door you can feel the warmth coming from the staff, you immediately feel right at home.The food is OMG out of this world so good, I recommend trying all the different dishes.Keep up the good work you all ???“
“No frills dining which is filled with authentic personality and affordable prices.Friendly service! The food is so good - fresh home cooked quality and amazing authentic Indo-Guyanese dishes! Looking forward to coming back when I'm in the area.“
“Went here November 4 with some friends for dinner. Location nice but the decor colours were loud. Overall food was good although slow as they had another event downstairs. Dj played good music although a bit too loud we couldn't hear ourselves talk, but I would return. We went to Central afterwards which is in close proximity to the restaurant.“
“Big up yourself Mark! It was my first time visiting Caribbean Queen Jerk. Growing up in a Jamaican household, I can tell you for sure that this food is authentic. Mark is a humble and genuine soul. I got ackee and saltfish, hominy porridge and curry chicken with ground provisions. Service and food 10/10 and prices are extremely reasonable.I will be back!“
“This restaurant has been around for more than 20+ yrs & the taste of the food remains consistent. My favorites are the Curry Goat (best in Toronto!), I also love their Oxtail-its so soft & tender with a rich gravy. The staff is very nice & service is pretty quick so you are in & out in no time. This is my go to Jamaican spot for the authentic tasting food, tourists & visitors to Toronto should put this restaurant on their bucket list of must trys when visiting the city!“
“A hidden gem in Mississauga I came across by accident. The restaurant had an offer on Skip the Dishes for free delivery over $30, a late night special. I checked out the reviews and decided to give them a try. Being a Guyanese girl myself, our standards for authentic Guyanese Chinese food is very high. And we tend to already have our usual go to spots for these dishes. But boy was I surprised and in luck! Just opening the fried rice box and the smell alone, I knew that I was in for a huge treat! The special fried rice is served with crispy fried chicken on top. It was exceptional and the chicken was juicy and tender inside and very crispy on the outside. I also ordered the pepper wings. They were very well seasoned, spicy and extra crispy. I was shocked that both dishes were still piping hot and super crispy despite my home being almost 15 minutes away from the restaurant. I also ordered a few shrimp rolls, that were also very crispy and delicious! If you’re looking for the real deal authentic Guyanese Chinese food in Mississauga, definitely check them out! I’m so happy I found this spot and will be back!“
“This past Saturday I had an opportunity to enter this establishment. I was very impressed with the kindness, professionalism and respect that the bartender Nelly brought forward. She definitely made our experience one to remember and look forward to coming back. Keep up the exception bartending Nelly!“

“I like to go with friends to this place with my highest recommendations. I visit this place often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are appetizing and the stuff is efficient and cooperative. Every time we go to this place we pass a splendid evening. I recommend this place with pleasure.“
“I’ve been hearing about this place for quite a while and when I tasted the doubles, they won my heart for sure!! I also got two beef (because they didn’t have goat) rotis and loved the texture and taste, but the meat lacked flavor. I think it will be the place for delicious and tasty doubles…they were scrumptious!Vegetarian options: They sell vegetarian options.“
“The food is delicious. They serve a variety of soups, and their jerk chicken and fried chicken are nicely done. The oxtail falls right off the bone, and the curried goat has just the right amount of spice. If you're craving a taste of the Caribbean, this is the place to go.“
“Very flavorful food, just watch the pepper guys. You want to cater to a diverse clientele! Pepper should only be for flavor not to burn your mouth, throat and lips. Clean, well organized restaurant. Great food, great pricing, great staff! Awesome chef/owner!!! Definitely will keep returning regularly“
“I would like to take this opportunity to say a Huge " Thank You " to Mr. Courtney and all the Wonderful ladies ( forgive me I forget their names so much going on at the time) for welcoming my family on February 19th for a Birthday Lunch. There was about 25 of us and everything was Amazing.We were Warmly greeted as soon as we arrived, the owner ( Mr. Courtney) came out and welcomed us, told us a bit of History of the restaurant and also what the buffet consisted of that day.We had a great time, the food was Delicious, lots of dishes to choose from. I am an oxtail person and it was DELICIOUS! Again, THANK YOU FOR YOUR HOSPITALITY. I Highly recommend this Buffet.Kathy & Family.“
“This restaurant is legit. Of course Toronto has hundreds of Caribbean/Jamaican restaurants but GC Jerk Express sets itself apart in my opinion by being made to order. Thus far I’ve only tried their wings and fried dumplings and jerk Alfredo penne pasta, but everything is made fresh which I love. There’s a bit of a wait that comes with that but it’s more than worth it. Customer service in Caribbean establishments is also usually hit and miss but from the folks working the counter to the cooks in the back, very professional and polite. No island attitude. All my Caribbean folk know what I mean ?“
“Very friendly staff, gave me some samples so ended up with Oxtail + Jerk chicken mix plate. Can add delicious plantain as add on for $2, got it fresh and hot only after few mins! Oxtail was super tasty and flavorful and the coleslaw was nice too! $20 but huge portions, lasted for 2 servings for me, highly recommended!“

“First time here, ordered #47 for takeout. Chowmein noodles with shrimp, char siu pork, tender beef with a quarter fried chicken leg on top. Very tasty meal. Love the hot sauce (not for the weak). Definitely coming back to try other items on the menu. This is Guyanese style Chinese food.“
“I have ordered deliveryfrom this restaurant and the food matches the price and quality. It is presented nicely and the food tastes as it should. It is refreshing to have a new different caribbean restaurant in the area. I will be definitely ordering again.“
“After moving away from the area 8 years ago, I had the pleasure of revisiting Baker's Jerk Chicken yesterday, and what a delightful experience it was! Stepping back into the restaurant felt like a heartwarming journey back in time, reminding me of the many joyous moments spent here during my previous years in the neighborhood.The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the 2 lbs of jerk chicken that I shared with my family. It was just as I remembered – the chicken was exquisitely seasoned, boasting the perfect balance of smoky, spicy, and savory flavors that are the hallmark of authentic Caribbean cuisine. Each bite was a burst of flavor that took me back to the days when Baker's Jerk Chicken was a regular part of my culinary routine.What truly sets Baker's Jerk Chicken apart is not just the quality of their food but the consistency of it. It's reassuring to see that, even after all these years, they have maintained their high standards and continue to serve delicious dishes that resonate with both long-time patrons and newcomers alike.For anyone craving a taste of the Caribbean or looking to indulge in some mouthwatering jerk chicken, Baker's Jerk Chicken remains a top-notch choice. Their commitment to flavor, quality, and customer satisfaction is evident in every meal they serve. I'm thrilled to have had the chance to relive those fond memories and to create new ones with my family at this fantastic establishment. Highly recommended for a great dining experience!“
“Off of the 400 by Jane and finch in an industrial neighborhood.Small variety of carribean groceries. Can buy drinks by the case, frozen patties by the box, and frozen oxtail by the pound.The patties are approx $2 and $3.25 with coco bread. It is cheaper to buy a box of a dozen patties.I ordered the spicy beef patty and coco bread with a package of soft spicy tamarind balls. The patty and coco bread were hot, fresh, and delicious. The tamarind balls are mild.Must visit this spot if you are in the neighborhood ?Vegetarian options: Veggie pattie and some snack foods.“
“Great staff, cheap decent food. However the name says Caribbean but being from Barbados and travelled throughout the islands. I can say it is just food. Need to remove the Caribbean part. Not one thing authentic from the Caribbean.But that being said decent quality food just not what it says it is“
“My family and I were pleasantly surprised!The restaurant is very clean.We ordered the oasis and special chicken fried rice. All i have to say is......*chefs kiss*it was very very tasty. Please support this local restaurant! You won't be disappointed.“
“Dimes is my go to for a great meal, whether it be for lunch or for dinner. They offer a wide variety of choices, fried chicken, jerk chicken, curried goat, oxtail, and more but I specifically love the new Honey BBQ chicken, I been a long time customer and the service and the food has always been great ???? 5 stars for me.??????. Check out the new location on Eglinton, 2679 Eglinton ave West, west of Keele Street“

“It is true when Charles Swindoll said, "Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it"... Yes, it's the fact, and I am saying this because of what Mr Hans of triumphantfoundation.com has done for me by giving me a huge loan which I least expected to be true. Indeed, T.F is great and that's the reason why I am recommending them to those that need financial assistance. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Mr Hans and the entire T.F has really blessed me and made me feel good and if anyone is seeking for assistance, I will solidly advise them to contact T.F for their loans because they are reliable and true to the core. "I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples". this was the exact words from Mother Teresa, so I have done my part and God bless you all. triumphantfoundation.com“
“Food is absolutely outstanding. Oxtail is the best I've ever had. The goat is superb. The chicken, is beyond amazing (my favorite out the bunch). The facility is always clean and ready for customers to come in and eat/drink and relax for a little. The service is amazing and completely fair to everyone and anyone. If you're planning to stop by, odds are you'll probably see me there“
“The owner is nice and personable. Food is so good. I recommend the fish. They’ve started karaoke on Wednesdays and having a DJ on Fridays. When no DJ is playing, juke box is there at your disposal. Great vibes, cheap drinks with pool table. Definitely recommend.“
“Went here a few times and always forget to take pictures of my food, because you just wanna eat. Like typical Jamaican restaurants to takes a while before you actually get your food but when you finally get it, you are not disappointed. Depending on the staff they try to entertain you while you wait with chit chat. The curry goat is chefs kiss, really really good, flavor right down to the bone. I heard the stew peas is good as well, hopefully I get to try that soonParking: It is in a plaza..there is quite a bit of parking spots..when not busy“
“I was invited to this Resturant and was very impressed with the service and the delicious food. The pepper shrimp, lamb fried plantains and chicken wings was amazing. I highly recommend the fry rice and chowmein also. The owner Ram is so professional, kind and his interaction with the customers is GreatKeep up the good service and delicious food.“
“OMG is all I have to say. The biggest doubles I have ever seen and well worth the price, I deeply recommend Nadia's to everyone, A must try. I will definitely be going back. Thank you for an amazing lunch.Kid-friendliness: It seemed like the girl was really buzy, but she took the time to help me choose as it was my first time there, I didn't get her name.“
