Caribbean/Chinese Cuisine
Caribbean Lyme is now my go to spot for great Guyanese food. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Ambience is modern and clean. Prices are a bit high but worth it. Highly recommend!
Only good part of staying at the est hotel is being walking distance to this place. I'm from Saskatchewan and after two days in down town Toronto being surrounded by swifties including my wife who went to the show tonight. Being able to walk to a small local place for a beer was a breath of fresh air. Didn't have any food, but the atmosphere is awesome similar to a small town bar and people seemed to be enjoying their meals and all smiling.
Great Family Owned Establishment With Amazing Food and Scenery. Anita Always Takes Care of Us When We are There and Offers Great Customer Service! Highly Recommend if You Like a Little Spice in Your Life!
Went here tonight based off a Google review, we’re from hamilton so we have experienced some really interesting food as our city has exploded. Hands down, this was the best food I’ve had out in a long time, we asked for our server to recommend some dishes, we had jerked chicken, chicken wings, shrimp and short ribs, it was next to impossible to pick a favourite… we finished it all, a definite home run and I’ll be making the hour commute to come back!!! Thank you
First time coming here to this Guyanese restaurant. We order large tray of shrimp fried rice and large tray of shrimp chow mein large tray of fried chicken for our party. Everyone love the food. They said it taste so delicious. Highly recommended. Will be coming back for sure.
So I don't like giving bad reviews, but I am upset about the service. I am allergic to shrimp. We usually order food without shrimp. The last two orders when we order, they put shrimp in our rice dish. I didn't complain the first time, I just threw it out because I cannot come back easily to change the meal. The second time, I called in, no apology, just telling me "Oh well, just let someone in the household eat it." That's not a response someone wants to hear when most of the people in the household cannot eat shellfish. This is a very surprising response because on the receipt it CLEARLY shows we ask for no shrimp and if anyone in the household ate that, it would be a serious, life threatening issue. We are usually careful when ordering food but when an establishment offers food that can be made without shellfish, we go it. Don't offer changes or warn people if you cannot do it
The buffalo wings were damn awesome. The price was quite ok and the fries were tasty. Very intense. The best thing was the size of the portion. Even though it doesn't look so large at the picture, it was really huge. 😁 Overall it was a very good experience.
First time visiting and I was blown away. The atmosphere is nice, people are friendly and the food was amazing. Tried a bit of everything - honey garlic wings, spicy fries, chicken chow mein and spicy shrimp. The portions are large and filling. Will definitely return!
Staff is very kind and friendly, always ready to help and serve
Had a misunderstanding, with the waitress regarding my bill, when I try to clear it up with her and apologize she accused me of robbing her, and walked away before I could finish what I has to say, I dont appreciate the attitude, needless to say this will be my first and last time here,the food I ordered was a little bit tasteless as well.
Fried rice proper stly. Bare goat mouth mudda skunt staring at you when u walk in
always love their shrimp and beef
Great place for west Indian cuisine.
Vegetarian options: Lots of vege options Food
I was from out of town just in area for one night everyone was friendly and welcoming
My favorite wings spot
I reccomend the gango wings
Amazing friendly staff and food was super!!
Gango Shrimp is amazing.
Spent 5 days in Brampton and the best meal I had was this fried rice and chicken
Do not order catering from this place. They cancelled my order the day of. I had given them 72 hour notice and they called the day of to say they don t have jerk chicken. I even asked if they could just make BBQ chicken and the chef said they weren t able prepare it. Very disappointed. Will NOT be ordering from here ever again.
The food was good but the customer service was extremely bad. The waitress ignore you and is rude as hell. I will never come back here again.
Luke their food
Great food. Great atmosphere
Great atmosphere, food is good
Best ppl ever for sure
Great restaurant to visit, great service, even greater food, and great vibes. They never miss, they always hit the target with the food tasting incredible.
The food is awesome but the service is very poor. The servers look not welcoming. They don t check on customers and never smile. It would be best for take home.
Food was ok. Prices were good. Service was great and friendly. Vegetarian options: There are options for vegetarians. One of my friends with us is vegetarian and did not have any issues finding something to eat. Parking: Parking is available but there are other venders at the location might be scarce if all restaurants in the plaza are busy. Kid-friendliness: Music was not super loud. Lunch crowd was fairly quiet and did not hear any swearing. Wheelchair accessibility: No issues for wheelchair access there was a customer in a wheelchair when we were there.
Great food, nice place, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere.
Great place to eat
Bomb food!
Great restaurant with an awesome atmosphere and an excellent owner! The food here is always great, as it is well-cooked and served with love! The chicken wings, pepper shrimp, and fried rice are always the best on the menu! Keep up the good work!
The owner of this amazing restaurant has a lot of experience dating back years! Ive personally been around enjoying 25 plus years of the very best Guyanese Caribbean Style dishes and the Caribbean Lyme is beyond the 5 STAR rating!!!! The owners Signature dishes have surpassed anything Ive ever had in the GTA. Ive had the pleasure of traveling to Guyana on several occasions and I am totally convinced that the Caribbean Lyme is par with the top restaurants in Georgetown Guyana if not BETTER. Norman Labine and Family
Nice people Great food Lovely atmosphere Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetables options
Caribbean Lyme Restaurant is a hidden gem serving up the best Guyanese cuisine in town! From flavorful fried rice to delectable chow mein, every dish bursts with authentic Caribbean flavors. The owners passion for Guyanese cuisine shines through in every bite, making this spot a must-visit for anyone craving a taste of the Guyana. Highly recommend! Their menu boasts a tantalizing array of dishes, from succulent chicken wings to flavorful goat curry and everything in between. Each bite is a journey to the heart of Guyana, crafted with care and expertise. The owners dedication to bringing the best of Guyanese flavors to the table is evident in every dish served. A must-visit for anyone craving a true taste of Guyana!
The food was so delicious. It was not stale. Freshly cooked. Very tasty
Excellent food, friendly staff.
Came here tonight with my son, mom and brother. Food was delicious, vibes were great but most importantly the 2 servers tonight were so sweet and very respectful. Made sure me and my family were well taken care of and satisfied. Great restaurant!
One thing about this place is that the food is good and the service is horrible. The main waitress only worries about her regular customers. As a first time customer, I dont agree with her having her somali boyfriend on the bar and talking to him the whole time instead of severing customers. She apparently manager for the servers and would not get me the owner. She needs to be rehired and deal with every customer ( instead of her boyfriend) especially for workers in the area that are there for lunch.
Nice hangout for an evening of relaxation.
Horrible customer service
Best restaurant. Amazing service and best staff.
Great service great food and a great atmosphere I really enjoyed my time here.
Order 5 Items and only received 4 items. When I called the restaurant to notify the server she said there was 5 items sent with the Skip Driver. I dont believe her because a month ago a friend of mine had the same experience. I will never do a Skip order again as this restaurant is very untrustworthy. So adding to my review. I just threw away $86 dollars worth of food away. The 2 fry rice, 1 chowmein and ribs is horrible. Its so salty you cannot eat it. Over the years I have loved Caribbean Lyme foods, when Im at the restaurant in person. I never thought their delivery food was so awful. Sorry, but will never give this restaurant my business again! Wish I could give it a Zero star. Its not worthy of a 1 star
Food quality is very good & tasty
Its a rum shop. Good servings and beers. Lots of men drinking and getting trashed. This was a 5 star at one point but I had to drop it to a 1 star due to my last experience there The owner was completely rude! We were there for a quick stop and they had a reserved table for an hr later. They sat us down at the reserved table and told us about the guests coming late. No issue, we said it was a quick stop. As soon as we got service, they ask us to move. We asked if the guests were here already and they weren t . We said we will be gone in 5 mins. This led to the owner throwing a disastrous fit. All of which was unnecessary. Needless to say, we ve never gone back.
Its a good place to catch a quick drink and meal. Everything heres reasonably priced.
My favourite caribbean restaurant in the GTA! Service is amazing, wonderful owners, and great food. Best pepper shrimp and spicy wings
Food was awesome.
Food at this place reminds me of my country Fiji. Amazing island taste food. Goat curry OMG. The owner is very friendly. The shrimp, Gangoo lamb and gangoo wings are amazing. The chicken fried rice and chowmein. Superb. Will definitely come back. Very friendly atmosphere.
Grate outing with friends found this little spot with amazing staff and decent foods.
Ppl not open when they say they are. Here at Wednesday 8:30pm.
First time checking out Caribbean Lyme and it did not disappoint. Food and service was good. Will be checking out this location again.
Ordered a full tray of Fried rice and full tray of chow mien no taste no seasoning nothing very bland and rice was hard I use to buy a lot for my functions I wont anymore waste of money 230$
Vegetarian options: Aloo curry bigan choka Food
Beautiful Atmosphere and Wonderful, caring staff and OWNER!! Food is Always Delicious ... Fresh and Authentic Caribbean Style Dishes!!!!!
Went to Caribbean Lyme for the first time today. We were excited to try a new place since the food at Guyanese restaurants these days are not very good like it used to be. It wasn t very busy. Myself, my dad and my brother seat ourselves and waited 10 mins no one came over to our table. My dad had to call on one of the female working there and ask if there is a waitress working. We finally got our food and it s not hot. No one came over to ask us if everything was ok or if we needed anything else. They would walk by us to go to the patio look in our direction and never once came over to see how everything was going. After we were finished we sat there for about 20 mins waiting for the waitress or someone that works there to come over and nothing. Again my dad called on one of the girl working there 3 times as she was walking by us (I am guessing it s the owner s daughter) and she completely ignored us my dad had to shout before she came over. When she came over she had total attitude asking what do we want SMH This is the first and last time. We will never go there again or recommend this place to anyone. I would give the service negative zero. It s too bad cause the food was decent but probably would have been better if it was hot. I was going to do a take order since I am from Cambridge but we were so turned off by the service. NEVER AGAIN
Good vibes great people!!
Great time with amazing food and good vibes
The love you get as soon as you enter this establishment is compared to none! The staff is like family, very friendly. The owner Mr. Gangoram Persaud treats you like he s known you forever! The food is like back home. Perfection! This is the spot i will ALWAYS stop off as soon as i get to toronto, while I am here and right before I leave!
Amazing food good service all the staff very friendly first time coming here coming back for sure Good job Food
Great curry goat! Meins and fried rice were delicious with the bbq chicken! Outstanding place for great food! Bravo! I never give fives.
The food was pretty good but the customer service is
Great place,amazing food and wonderful people.
Insanely good. You *thought* you had good food before this. The honey garlic wings were the highlight for me.
Great service , delicious food . However very tight space if you are dining in . Take out awesome .
Its a nice venue. The food, drinks and atmosphere are good. I have been there several times and never had an issue except for today, Saturday, 25th June, 2022 when I decided to casually check my bill. Apparently, the list price on the menu differs from the actual charged price at the register. Eventually, I spoke with a female owner who was engaging but arrogant. I told her the prices were misleading to the public. She went off on a rant about inflation and new menus being printed reflecting new prices. Thats all well and good but what has that got to do with a customer ordering what the menu says and related prices. They should be honouring the list price until they get their act together. Its the principle involved and not the few dollars difference. Its unfortunate but I shall not return there.
Overpriced and tasteless, never again ..!
The food is freshly made and it is delicious. I would recommend this place
I got food poison eating the mixed lo men. They served me old food. I was sick for a week .
Parking: Free parking
The food was delicious with nice customer service. The price was affordable and parking was good. With the outside dining the name was difficult to see I has a bit of a hard time locating the place and I think my GPS was a bit confused ....other than that it was an enjoyable meal
Staff is very slow and spot is very tiny compared to the amount of people that come in. 3 stars because it has some of the best food.
The setting is fantastic, but there is little room to sit down. I ordered a bland chicken curry, which lacked flavour. There was more bone than meat in the food. When I received my bill, the charges did not line up with the menu
First time coming to this place , Food was on point and worth the price. Good job , hat off to the chef and the server
Awesome food, great drinks. Perfect spot when going/leaving Pearson Airport (only 10 min away)
The food was stale ( curry goat ) and the cashier was hoggish
Food was ok
The service was great, staff were friendly and accommodated a group of aprox 15 ppl close to closing and did not rush us at all. The food is good and at a great price point. Will definitely be back again.
amazing! can never go wrong wit the food from there no no bap!
Carribean lyme are basically reheating their food causing their styrofoam containers to be burnt at the bottom. Never ordering from them again
Waited 40 minutes for ONE gango fried rice even when I called 15 minutes prior and placed an order even before I got there. Unprofessional.
Our review is a year late, but still stands. We are so incredibly happy to have found Carribean Lyme. We used them for our wedding, with less than 3 months to plan (long story). We went for a taste test on a weekday evening, and the place was packed and lively (already a great sign). We dealt with Anita who was absolutely phenomenal. She was super accommodating, patient, and helpful to say the least. We couldnt have asked for a better person to deal with. To top it all off, she let us taste a few dishes for free! Now, the food. Absolutely, positively, AMAZING! Our guests raved about it, and still do to this day (and we have picky eaters in the family). We recommend them to everyone. We live 30 mins away, but are willing to make the trek for their delicious food. Our 1st wedding anniversary dinner will be ordered from this wonderful restaurant. We are so grateful for Carribean Lymes existence! We cant thank the team enough for helping to make our wedding day as great as it was!
Love their shrimp and wings cant wait to go back to order
My new favourite Caribbean spot!!!!!
Great food and awesome service, highly recommended
We ordered delivery through skip the dishes, and ordered $89 worth of food. Sadly, not one of the items we ordered tasted fresh, or tasty, couldnt even eat more than a spoonful. I am so surprised by all of the good reviews because we ordered on a Saturday night which I am told is the night most restaurants have their top Chef working. And we order takeout once a week at least so we have pretty much covered all halal restaurants in the GTA and this is the first time I feel the need to leave a bad review.
Caribbean Lyme. Before This Local Restaurant Opened In Rexdale, It Sent Shockwaves Throughout The GTA. Rexdale Was Finally Getting Its Own Hot Spot. Local Residents Cheered That The Neighborhood Was Finally Getting A West Indian Restaurant - Not Having To Leave Their Homes Anymore And Traverse To Mississauga, Brampton Or As Far As The East. With Those Shockwaves Came A Lot Of Drama - What Was Supposed To Be A Family Restaurant Was More Of A Local Bar. As A Resident Of The Neighborhood In Which Caribbean Lyme Is Situated In, I Cannot Recall The Countless Times I Walked In To Pick Up An Order And The Bar Was Packed With Overly Intoxicated Customers - It Was Even Worse At Night. Attracting The Locals And Customers From Afar, This Once Beloved Restaurant Was Rexdales Newest Troublesome. From Brawls, Fist Fights, Arguments Down To The Owner Himself Picking Fights With Customers, It Was Only A Matter Of Time Before The TPS (Toronto Police Services) Had There Eyes Locked In. A Video Surfacing Online Through Social Medias Instagram Showed TPS Tasering Overly Intoxicated Customers, Bottles Being Thrown And Other Shenanigans You Wouldnt Find At A Family Restaurant. For Those Who Dont Know, Caribbean Lyme Has Relocated And Re-Branded There Logo - Across The Street. There New Location Is Very Much Smaller And There Food Is Still Ever Tasting The Same As It Did When It Opened Years Ago. The Food - Caribbean Lyme Has A Signature Ingredient Which Is The Same In All Of Its Menu Option, You Taste One, Youve Tasted All. Its Nothing Special. One Minute Wings - On Numerous Occasions, Ive Ordered Wings, Witnessed Customers Ordering Wings Only To Have Them Served To Me In A Minute ? Is This Fresh ? No Clue. While They Do Offer Some Tasty Dishes, You Will Have Experiment As You Visit, If You Visit. Recommendations - Operate A Family Establishment, Not A Zoo.
Best
First time customer. Was really amazed at the quantity and quality of the food. Probably one of the best lunch specials I have had in years. Delicious rice paired with an equally delicious noodle and spicy honey garlic beef ribs. The flavours were very unique. Will definitely be back next time in the area.
First time going there, great service, nice people, and the food is amazing with really generous portions (my container was overflowing with food). Definitely a good experience all around
Very rude customer service and don t try to accommodate their customers request !!! Food is good , but couldn t get to order my food due to poor customer service !
Great food, good atmosphere and a very clean establishment.
Very first time customer. Atmosphere very friendly and lively. The quality and the quantity was plenty. Bring your appetite a great selection of food on the Menu
This place is a rip off.. the woman that served me had no customer service skills .. the food was ok to say the best but watch the bill... they will and have rob people before.. including myself.
Nobody pay Attention on customer, adter changed the place, they are just ignoring old customers, even we have to wait for order longer than we expected, no more respect,
The food is very good if yo dine in. The reason Im giving it a 2 is because their takeout is rank and old. Its not fair your giving takeout coustomers old food just cause they cant complain.
BEST GUYANESE FOOD IN CANADA. CHICKEN FRIED RICE SHRIMP AWESOME.
Love the Lamb fried rice and the pepper shrimp a must try !
Great restaurant and fantastic service. The food was absolutely delicious and did not take long to come out to us. Will definitely be back once Im back in the area. Loved the lowmein, and szechuan shrimp.
The Food here is amazing!!!! Worth the price !!!! Definitely recommend yall to try it.
Nice hangout
Place is always busy. Good food.
This the spot for some spicy calamari and gango chicken
Gotten takeout a few times from here and never been disappointed. Love their fried rice. Always fresh. Hoping it stays this way.
Too crowded
Had the Jerk Chicken lunch special and house wine. Food was great! Craving it as I leave this review... And the house wine...is a full glass! Definitely worth getting!
Wish I could rate 0, absolutely disgusting 30 smth dollars for lobster and it tasted like freezer burn and stale af, had to throw away absolutely non edible. Folks have bad attitude as well, DO NOT GET THE LOBSTER!

Really good west Indian food. Great quality and quantity.

Good food best fried rice in town
Awesome place to drink. My go to spot before going to woodbine race track. Must try are the chicken wings, gango beef and bangamary.
One of the best westindian restaurants in the area. Humble owner and staff.
Food - great! Atmosphere - warm and welcoming! Prices - affordable! Service - brilliant! Portions - belly buss! What more can one ask for?! After a 8 hour flight, along wait at immigration and a short drive to my hotel, all I could think of was food! So happy I found this place! Will definitely check it out again when Im in the area.
Food is delicious. You get a lot for your money. The service is fast and friendly. Really clean and music is good. Get the spicy wings!!!
Great atmosphere and I love there food dont forget the mix drinks

Great food and service every time I visit
45 minute wait to pick up a tray of food. Called prior to going to place the order and was told it would be ready at a certain time. Went in at specified time and still waited 45 minutes
Best lime place
Im from new York and I always enjoy having a beer there the staff is very nice.
The food is good but I have been a couple of times when they had so much catering food orders that there was a long wait and many tables were being used to place the orders on. My family and I left once because it seemed loud and crowded. I still gave it 4 stars because I do enjoy the food there.
Good food, Cool atmosphere
Going to this place for the very 1st time with my family I have to say that we try lots off the food and it was so good I will give it 10/10 . The place inside is so nice and clean and also the waitress they are very nice and friendly I will recommend anyone to go this place . Me and my family is also planning to go back very soon and I have to say the owner of the place is so nice he came and greeted me and ask how was everything so far and we told him everything is so good and we cant complain at all .
Best food !
Very tasty food and service
Great food. Friendly staff
Always full of good people
