The food was an incredible introduction to Jamaican cuisine. 10/10 would eat here every day of the week if I could. PEI and the rest of Atlantic Canada are lucky to have this restaurant and owner operating here.
First time here, really enjoyed the jerk chicken dish. Cooked perfectly with tons of flavour, the gravy was very good. Looking forward to going back and trying other dishes.
I'd give them a 6 if I could. I wanted jerk pork and the lady behind the counter suggested I order the braised pork. I struggled with the decision so she gave me a small portion to try. It was amazing, but I still stuck with the jerk pork. A lovely surprise of a small portion of the braised was added to my order and beyond incredibly delicious. The jerk pork dinner I ordered was absolutely top-notch. Cannot recommend this place enough.
Value for Money, The Curried Goat meal and Jerked chicken is very authentic, well seasoned and the best Jamaican food on the island. 10/10 recommended! The team was warm and friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming.
Authentic Jamaican food! After moving to the island I thought I would never have my comfort food ( Curry Goat & rice and peas) ever again. My prayers were answered. Absolutely delicious and generous portions. Did takeaway and when I got home I was amazed. A mix of bone in and boneless, I'm pretty sure each container weighed 2 pounds. It was in the top 2 of the best I've ever had.
The women taking my order was super friendly and gave me some recommendations. I decided to try the jerk pork meal, best I've ever had! Absolutely delicious and definitely recommend coming here.
Awesome service and tasty Jamaican food in Charlottetown! Ordered jerk chicken special and a fried chicken meal to go. We had food in less than 10 minutes! The jerk chicken had about 6 small pieces of chicken and came with festival (a sweet doughy bread) and a few slices of fried plantain. The fried chicken came with a thigh and a leg and boatload of rice and beans. It was all tasty, we did find the jerk little dry and the fried chicken not super crispy but yummy all the same. It was takeout so that totally could be contributing to that. Loved the festival bread and tasty spiced rice and beans. Super friendly service and a great flavours, will love to try some more things here.
What a jem. We happened to walk by and was intrigued by the indoor decor! We ended up going in and ordering takeout. We ordered some Jamaican Patty's and Jerk Chicken Plate. The Patty's were amazing and so was the chicken! I definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for authentic Jamaican food! So delicious and the folks running the spot are so sweet. Thank you so much!
The atmosphere is so friendly and honestly such an authentic Caribbean vibe from the moment you walk in. Just as pleasant as the smiles and service, the food is just Delectable!! Big ups Cheff, And Big Ups Sasha! One Love Everytime People Go Get You Sommmmeee !!!!!
Here in PEI from Toronto, the best Caribbean food around here, I recommend the Curried Chicken!
I went to eat here with members of my staff and every single person love their meal. It was reasonably priced, and most importantly every bite was delicious. Food
Went there today with colleagues... There were 8 of us. Everybody was saying the same thing : it was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent too. Ill be back!

Their Jamaican food is really great. Maybe the best meal during our tour through Atlantic Canada. And it was a relaxed fun place to eat.
Stopped here on a whim on our way back home to Montreal and couldn t be happier!! The staff was so nice and the food was just delicious. Highly recommend the curry goat meal :)
I apologize for not posting a photo of the food, but H F, the food was surreal! The staff was super friendly (considering we we arrived 30min before they closed) we ordered the barbi and gerk chicken and let me tell ya it was amazing! I would dare to say it is the best Jamaican food I have ever tasted! You need to try it!

Amazing food and service.
We had a fantastic dinner of oxtail and jerk chicken and wonderful service from Sasha who also shared a little of the history of the family-owned restaurant with us. So good! Highly recommend!
A taste of Jamaica in every bite
The food is fantastic, especially the Jerk chicken. No one was there when I entered, thus I think its mostly for takeout, but dont be discouraged by the lack of patrons as the the food is simply delicious.
BEST PATTIES IN CHARLOTTETOWN!!
Excellent food Goat Curry too Long time to arrive Ordering ahead is my plan because I will go back.
Jerk was delicious, perfectly cooked, and still juicy. Rice and peas excellent as well. Jerk sauce on the side with a touch of sweet was perfect, best Ive had.
incredible experience, the server was so nice and personable. the food was so good. would recommend to everyone
youve got to try the festival! for chinese readers: its like youtiao, but a bit more sweet and with a touch of cornmeal.
Reminded me of our visits to Montego Bay. Very pleasant owners and hot (fresh) yummy food. Thank you!
I was in PEI on a work trip. My plan was to have fish every day. Why not, I was in PEI! It was my last day and I was kinda fished out so I came here. I had the jerk pork meal and OH MY GOODNESS that was DELICIOUS!!! What a great way to end a trip. If I get to come back to PEI, I m coming here to eat FIRST
Awesome food, best jerk chicken anywhere. The staff are great too, really nice and fun people. Everyone should eat at boonoonoonoos all the time.
Best Jamaican in town
Girlfriend picked up and said the staff was very friendly and the food was really good. We both had the jerk chicken and a beef paddie, both very tasty. Best Jamaican in Charlottetown hands down.
Sasha was excellent! She was very welcoming and funny. The jerk chicken was comfortably spicy and a little sweet. Will definitely eat here again.
Excellent food! We had the jerk pork and curry chicken. We got the special meal for one of them which comes with fried plantains and festivals which are pastry type things that you can dip in a gravy. They were very good. We got the curry with the regular meal which comes with rice and peas. It was also excellent! We tried the house made drinks, watermelon and pineapple, delicious! They werent too sweet and the pineapple had a bit of a spicy zing almost like ginger. Will try the jerk chicken next time. The 2 meals and 2 drinks came to $49 something with tax.
Delicious food and lots of it. The jerk pork, festivals , and fried plantain were great. The homemade ginger beer was delightfully gingery.
This was a terrible experience, will not go back!
This spot is fantastic. Shacha is a lively and personable restauranteur.
Amazing good and amazing people.
Awesome people and great food!
We are so lucky to have a Jamaican restaurant with such high-quality food in PEI. I have enjoyed everything Ive purchased from Boonoonoonoos--from the patties and juices to the ackee and saltfish and jerk pork. One day, I bought their jerk pork during lunch but wasnt able to eat it until about 3 hours later. When I ate it a room temperature, the meat was still tender, and the flavour was still rich. I can still taste it even today! As a bonus, the owners are friendly and respectful. Ill be going back again and again.
Amazing Food, great music and service 10/10 recommended spot to go to
First time having Jamaican beef patty, I loved it! It paired well with a Cucumber cooler.The owners were supper helpful and recommended exactly what I needed. Will be going back!
Really great food
The quality of food here is amazing. 100% recommend!
I ordered the jerk chicken and the chicken patty, both were so delicious. I would recommend 10/10!
Food was delicious and had an amazing gravy! Plenty of seating and even hosted game nights and karaoke to spice up life in Charlottetown!
Great service and beefpatty
I had the best time here, Ive tried almost everything on the menu, never been disappointed! Sasha is so sweet! The customer service is theres no reason why you shouldn t visit them!
The food hit the right spot on a hot afternoon after work. Real soul food!!!
Excellent FOOD!!!
LOVED THE FOOD!! Great and friendly service!
Amazing food and customer service! Will be back again for sure!
I went there one night spontaneously and now I can t stay away. I love the place and the service so much, they make you feel like family. AND THE FOOD. AMAZING.
Great food, friendly staff , good vibes. The oxtail meal and curry goat are amazing.
Nothing better than their Jerk Chicken meal with some Curry Goat Gravy on the rice! Parking: Free weekend and after 5pm street parking
Just happy to have good Caribbean food and good vybez in town!
I love the experience there it s the best and the food is the amazing. I definitely recommend going there.
Great food and amazing people. Love the vibe there. Oxtail and Barbie Fried chicken are my favorites(Chefs kiss) Batty! Food
WoW!!! The food is incredible (we particularly loved the jerk pork and the patty) The owner is so welcoming and happy to share her culinary culture. She gave us really good advice. Plus, the prices are completely reasonable! A must-see during our next visit to the IPE!
Great food and the people are great. Always love me some Jamaican food
I stopped in on a whim one day, which turned out to be the first day Boonoonoonoos was open. Ever since I ve been in almost weekly for lunch; the food options are phenomenally tasty. The rice and peas with gravy is an understated hit, the goat curry is glorious, but you can t beat a cheese and beef patty for a quick lunch (and at $5.50 a patty you can t argue). This is, without question, one of my top two favourite places to eat in Charlottetown. Vegetarian options: Ask for the veggie options if you don t see them on the menu.
One of the best in town. Most Authentic and flavourfull food. Ensuring special care to customers, I espically love their Jerk and festival food options !
We had Jerk Chicken, Oxtail with rice and peas. For dessert, the banana cake that came with this yummy yummy warm sauce. Everything was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS !! The meat was tender, juicy fall of the bone- just delicious!. Service was great too. So glad we have authentic Jamaican food here in Charlotteown.Will definitely be back again...and again :)
We bumped into this paradise and I cant wait to go back. The food is A1. We arrived during a busy spell. After eating the food I am willing to wait 2hours if need be.!!!
Delicious and fresh!
Yummy jerk goat meal!
Authentic Jamaican Food and Drink! Rum and Ting was so good. The bread pudding was perfect and the patties were Amazing. Great hosts and atmosphere.
Amazing. As 2 people we had one combo and one meat dish and had a wonderful feast. The goat curry will bring me back there.
