I had enough friends who had thoroughly enjoyed this place bugging me to try it. To be fair, I knew of this place for a very long time being a former Spectrum student and always seeing this place going by. Kinda my fault for always driving by in a hurry and never actually stopping by to check them out.
My bus driver buddy who drives the 22 route urged me to go everytime whenever the both of us go by the place. So I decided to slow from my hectic schedule and dine in.
Um, this is one of those places where you want to implant your caboose into the seat and never leave. I could just sit for hours listening to Sean Paul and Daddy Yankee tracks inside this place and order half a dozen bottles of Ting eating roti. I ordered roast beef, chicken, and pulled pork roti. I had the first 2 on-site and the latter for take out because I had to stop procrastinating and leave in order to go back and continue packing and cleaning before my move out.
The roast beef is hands down my favorite. The chicken I was told was usually the customer favorite; don't get me wrong, it is delicious indeed but I still enjoyed the succulent roast beef more. I drove out of the place when the food comatose hit me hard and I needed to make an emergency landing 🛬... I mean pit stop 🚏 at my parent's place. I gifted away my pull pork roti to my brother and I hit a deep siesta in my mom's pergola. I was out cold for 3 hours.
I tell you; this was how satiated I was with the comfort food. No other meal I had to date puts me into a restful state post. I needed this, I was going through stressful times and this was healing soul food. Other reviewers are not kidding with accolades; try this place out.
This place was fire! Traveled up here from Seattle and stumbled upon this gem! Jeffrey (owner) was the nicest guy and he and the rest of the crew make some mean Roti! Had to come back again the next day (Saturday) for Doubles, which are only served that day. Well worth it! This made our Victoria trip what it was.
I received a recommendation from a local and decided to check this place out and boy was I ever glad that I did! The food is authentic Trinidadian fair, wow the Roti was fantastic and flavourful and tasty with rich curry potatoes and ample chicken I asked for mine extra spicy and it was very good! I highly recommend trying this place out! It’s family owned and operated and everything is lovingly prepared fresh! On Saturday get there early and try the Hot Doubles but they sell out fast!!!
