★★★★★ 5.0 BERUBE JORDAN E · Jan 2026

I had the absolute BEST meal from Ali’s Roti Shop! This plate came with oxtail, shrimp, rice and peas, green salad, macaroni pie, and a side of callaloo, and every single bite was a piece of Caribbean heaven. The flavors were rich

Condescending and very EXPENSIVE! plus they don't accept any type of payment but cash which is illegal and having an atm inside the store so they can scam you on an extra charge. Not good.

★★★★★ 5.0 Rashaad Kareem · Jun 2021

They sell the closest to authentic Jamaican jerk like in the island. The jerk chicken is super delicious and well seasoned. The jerk pork is slow cooked and so tender. Great food here and they are open late!

I tried to do the right thing and not order fast food. The mistake cost me $30 dollars on Uber eat. The Food is hot and then I taste a plaintain saturated in some dreadful sauce. The curry goat is all bone and the spinach rice taste like some foreign objects mushed in the rice. The worst of it all is the sea moss. The sea moss taste like a spoiled, thick imitation coquito. I been having this plate for a bought an hour. I wouldn’t give to a dog. I always say the carribean restaurant standards have dropped below sea level. I wish I would have went to Pitkin Carribean for their delicious sea moss and vegetable Pattie’s. It sure wouldn’t have cost me $30.00. Please refund me so I can take this review down. I want my coins back please. Respectfully

I'm very picky where I order oxtails. I tried my luck with this place. NO REGRETS. I had oxtail with rice and peas. Oxtail gravy is very rich and tasty, not watered down. I had a fair portion of oxtail for $22. VERY TASTY.
