661 Notre Dame Ave, Greater Sudbury, ON P3A 1A1, Canada
The young men who served me were so nice. They gave me just the right amount of rice and curry goat. My beef patty was delicious and not dry at all. Good food for a great price.
This restaurant is by far my favorite in Sudbury! It's always clean, plenty of options, the prices are reasonable and the staff always greets and welcomes you with a smile. The owner Keisha seems to be always on site and is never to busy to meet and make time for her customers. The oxtail, jerk and her macaroni pie are my all time favorite! If you're in the mood for a taste of the Carribean look no further than Flames Carribean kitchen Nickeisha is absolutely phenomenal and THE BEST out there! Thank you for always taking care of our family, consistently greeting us with a smile, great food, and excellent customer service.
Wife and I stopped in here last week, jerk was fantastic 👌 . Fair prices and a good atmosphere. We eat jerk alot down south, and find most places Have an unwelcoming vibe to them, not here. The lady working was excellent:)
Don’t judge a book by its cover The outside of the building was a little rough but the food was amazing! I had the goat curry and tried the plantains (because of other reviews)it was magic! The goat melted off the bone. The server was pleasant and the prices were fair. Will definitely eat here again when in Sudbury
We placed an order via Uber Eats for delivery and we're given the incorrect order. Our order was supposed to be the family meal for four consisting of jerk chicken, curry goat, and oxtail with sides of rice and peas and coleslaw. We instead received one fried chicken combo. While I won't be able to determine whether this was a mistake by the restaurant or the delivery service, the food itself was not up to standard whatsoever. The rice had a total of two beans for the whole container and honestly tasted very stale, it was lacking flavour in general. The fried chicken was also stale unfortunately however from the bite I had, it seemed like it was well seasoned. I would give this place another try but probably in person as I would like to see the quality of the food before ordering next time. Serving anyone stale food is not the quality standard of this restaurant I'm sure. I had good hopes based on previous reviews/photos that looked great, however we were certainly disappointed.
Simply amazing. Authentic, delicious, and satisfying after a few hours on the motorcycle. Could use some outdoor seating. Will definitely be returning next time I'm in Sudbury.
When I opened my jerk chicken dinner, it literally looks like the worker took a bite out of my piece of chicken and then spit it out. Absolutely disgusting. I’m not even from this area but I definitely will not be coming here ever again and I definitely do not recommend. Edit: Not to mention, the portions are extremely small for the large size. Looking at their other reviews, they gave me the same portion that they give for the small size. Why is there an entire part of this container that’s empty? Can’t believe this place has such good ratings.
We really enjoyed the authentic Caribbean flavors at this hidden gem! Juicy smokey jerk chicken, rich oxtail and flavorful goat and chicken curry. They also have roti we have yet to try. The pictures speak for themselves. Highly recommended if you enjoy Caribbean cuisine. We will definitely be back.
BEST Jerk Chicken! Great service. Go to spot for a good meal.
The website doesnt work, everytime my husband and I check your website it doesnt work. Plz fix that issue. I know thats my only issue but Im going to be sending my husband over right now to grab food to try as we both havent been before and I myself am new the this area.
Best jerk chicken ever!!! Love this place and will continue to order when Im in Sudbury.
The jerk chicken is to die for. On top of that, they truly worked to keep all customers happy, and it was appreciated. Highly highly recommend!
I have never had a bad experience at Flames. Although I havent been there for take-out recently, I highly recommend trying this place. Its home cooking and delicious.
Jerk chicken is amazing!!!
Love this place. Great flavours, menu and such nice people. Rotis are my favourite and I always have a bottle of their hot sauce in my fridge
The best Caribbean food we have had ! Delicious! We are not local , if we are ever in the area again we will return!
Pretty ok Had the large curry goat plate Was still hungry after Taste was average I would say Wasnt special and after a few bites it was like, alright, I get it
Excellent jerk chicken, the service was great and the food hit the spot , definitely worth coming here, the chicken has lots of flavors and very fresh,
My wife and I were visiting Sudbury and found this excellent Carribean take-out restaurant. I had goat roti and my wife had the curried chicken roti, both were excellent.
Good food Staff is very friendly Food
Delicious food. Nice people :)
Our family ordered an assortment of proteins with peas and rice for 4 - jerk chicken, oxtail, curry goat, curry chicken, plus coleslaw and fried plantain. Everything was absolutely delicious, fresh and authentic. The best curry chicken Ive had since I lived in Trinidad 56 years ago. It may sound silly, but the oxtail was mind blowingly good. Our son has lived in Sudbury for 8 years and Ive been encouraging him to eat at Flames Caribbean Kitchen for as long, and we finally tried it. Sensational!
Great place, good food
Update... Jan 27, 2023.... we have been going here for a few years now... That girl knows her roots... black cake... delicious... festivals .. crispy.. jerk chicken... mild but flavorful... ginger coconut drops.... Perfect. Support this girl.. thanks Was so nice to have some flavour finally. Been here in Sudbury since Sept 2017 and today I found our take out spot. My husband and I enjoyed it very much. Love the homemade hot sauce.
Awesome food glad I found you guys!
This place is incredible!!! Big portions and super friendly!
Great place, great food and excellent service! Would definitely recommend the oxtail and jerk chicken. Parking: Parking lot is somewhat small but Leslies is right beside with a much more parking and is just a few steps away.
The best place to eat in Sudbury, the food is always the best.
Great Jerk Chicken. I make a point of coming here every time I am in Sudbury. The portions fill me up and the food is just delicious. Highly recommend you check this Sudbury secret.
This is quite the little hidden gem, the food is great and the selection of beverages from the Caribbean is plentiful. I recommend the jerk patties, festival, and a serving of plantains with a nice ginger beer to complement!
Stopped for a quick pickup lunch today. In and out in less than 5 minutes. The service was great, selection wasnt massive, but I prefer it that way. The food smelled great, and I ended choosing the large jerk chicken with macaroni. Will defintely be coming back :)
Its a great jerk place, just a bit pricey.
Amazing food. Lady at the front was very friendly and helped choose my meal
Took my daughter to flames on a girls day, she loved it, said it was the best she had since she was in Jamaica. I had oxtail and chicken she had a roti, both were superb. We shared an order of Festival, this to was tasty. Customer service was great. I love coming here, now
Good food, good price
The best restaurant in Sudbury, the food is amazing. Excellent customer service . A real taste of the island Vegetarian options: They always have a vegetarian option. Kid-friendliness: I have two boys, we always go there together one alway get oxtail and the other gets curry goat. Its a kid friendly atmosphere.
Jerk chicken was good. No flavor on rice salad was soupy Parking: Super hard to park its awkward
So happy to find Caribbean food in Sudbury!!! We came into Flames after a quick google search for Caribbean food. The owner was so friendly and welcoming, and the food was on point! Everything we ate was tasty (jerk chicken, oxtail, rice and peas, pasta salad, plantain, patty, even the hot sauce was great !) The portions were perfect too! will definitely return when we re in Sudbury. They even had coconut drops!!! Thank you for the delicious meal.
Very pleasant lady and the food is amazing!!
Wow food was delicious and amazing
Very good food, everyone should try it
A family fave take out spot for sure
The food never disappoints! I always get either oxtail or goat (and sometimes a mix of both). I keep telling myself to try other things on the menu but I get in there and I cant resist my favourite Parking: Only once was the parking lot full so its generally very easy to park. Kid-friendliness: Feels like a Caribbean home cooked meal.
Amazing Food!
Jerk chicken roti with extra sauce is amazing. Also try their homemade scotch bonnet sauce and mac salad <3
The food was ok.. adding some heat to it would have made a world of difference. All of the side items I tried were very bland..Over all, way over priced for the portions you get. I wouldn t order from here again
Amazing jerk chicken ! Really liked the rice and macaroni to. Highly recommend !
Bomb af love the food
Good food
Jerk Chicken is truly delicious ! Try it, yah wont be disappointed
Just had some oxtail and rice and pea with a mango peach juice. Then finished it with a coconut drops! great food, not oily at all. I would eat their again and recommend.
Good food and couteous staff. Delicious.
Was super happy to find a carribean establishment in this town. I called ahead to make sure there was plantain. Upon arrival, there was not a menu for me to reference. I paid $18 for a SMALL oxtail with rice and peas and was served what u seen in that picture. A half meal. As for the plantains they actual do not cut slice them in fact they cut them into small medallions ( like sliced cucumbers) and then charge 3 for $1. Not pleased with the amount of food I got for what I paid. Taste wise the rice n peas can gwan ... mac was not good... jus pasta n miracle whip no veg in it or flavor. N the oxtail was ok as well. Expected more must unhappy about the plantain....wont come back.
Got some of their Jerked Chicken, the meat was melting off the bones.
My hubby and I were driving through looking for something to eat and he spotted the sign for Flames. Im glad he did because the food was great, as was the service. It was a nice taste of the Caribbean; we had the oxtail, jerk chicken, friend chicken and sides and loved it all. If you like it spicy please grab the house made hot sauce, also makes it more authentic. Glad to have somewhere like this to eat when were up here again.
Loved the food!
Food was good and service was great too.
Had to kill some time stopped in and ordered seconds! Unique taste. I also noticed a homeless person come in and they gave him water. These people care about their community and have amazing food. Be sure to try some!
Absolutely delicious food. Staff is funny and friendly, too.
The food was really good The restaurant was clean the place to sit down and chill.
The minute you walk in the door you re just taken with the delicious smells of amazing food waiting for you. Alice is fantastic, super friendly & very patient as we figured out what we wanted to order. In all honesty, we pretty much wanted to order everything lol We settled on 3 daily specials for $10+tax each and a small shrimp for my little person. Don t let the container size fool you, it was a lot of food per order but so good & filling. Just the right amount of heat with the sweet & the in house hot sauce is fantastic!!!!!! We all shared a little from each container & not one complaint. Simply delicious from the jerk chicken to the curry chicken, curry shrimp & the sauce & gravy over the rice .. killer. The coleslaw had the perfect amount of sweet to balance out the heat. Definitely will be back and I highly recommend No pics as the smell in the car had everyone salivating to get home & eat lol This amazing independently owned business is one I ll visit each & every trip to Sudburry. Show them some love & let s keep them cooking Worth the drive & $$$ By far my favourite meal during my stay
The facility has parking and the meal was good, however, presentation was lacking.
I ordered Curry Chicken plate soo delicious beats Scarboroughs Chris Jerk Chicken spot!! Love the plantains here as they were sweet most places are not sweet too bland!! Also, friendly staff highly recommend this spot!! Love trying new places when Im on a road trip so thanks guys for the best meal stop! Parking: There was parking available so that was a plus!
The service was good Vegetarian options: Vegetables patties and curry vegetables
Chicken and goat roti are amazing!! Travel from Massey all the time for this great food!!!
Simply amazing every time I have gone there. If you havent yet, try a Festival and the macaroni pie! Amazing people, amazing food, and always an amazing culinary experience! One if my fave places to eat in Sudbury.
My second visit. Ordered the small oxtail dinner with rice and coleslaw, same as last time. So beyond delicious. The first time I ordered a roti shell on the side. Very good as well. The coleslaw was the perfect side. Crisp, fresh and not over dressed. A small dinner was a generous serving. Plenty for one. Both times have had leftovers for lunch. Even better the next day. Reasonable for $20! Next time will try their plantain and beef patty. Highly recommended. Thank you Flames Caribbean Restaurant!
OHHHH MY ITS still amazing food . Havent lived in Sudbury for over 4 years . First week back Im trying all my old favs. This restaurant ranks top 3 in Sudbury for me . Just mouth watering amazing flavor , huge portions all for under 20 bucks . Or 20 with a tip. I had Jerk Chicken on rice , oxtail gravy and some slaw . Man what a great supper . Now I should get back to it before it gets cold, if youve never tried this this is as close as youre getting to Jamaican food without being there . I must add that its not overly spicy either the jerk which is nice touch its perfectly seasoned Parking: There was a spot when I went works out good for me. I wouldnt try to get in there with a full size pickup truck or anything but just park at Leslies and walk over LOL
Just went for the first time, oxtail and curry goat are great, super friendly people, highly recommended!
This is my new favourite spot in Sudbury. They ve been here 7 years!! Honestly, everything on this menu is AMAZING!!! 10/10.
Honestly the best Carribean food I have ever had. Youd have to go to Toronto or the Carribean to get food even remotely close to the quality of this establishment. Their house hot sauce is also off the chain. Vegetarian options: They have plenty of Vegan options.
Carribean love and perfection. Highly recommended.
The best so yummy
Sadly disappointed...maybe its because of covid .. because I did see pretty good reviews and the whole famous actor thing sold me ...BUT no.no.no I ordered a chicken roti no heat so basically mild was disappointed the meat was dark im used to white breast meat it was so spicy hot and inedible the roti skin was dry and falling apart on top and so dry and cement like on the bottom i also ordered doubles and pohlorie but they dont offer that .
Food is always great.
This place has amazing fried jerk chicken and highly recommend the jerk hot sauce. personable service.
Good chick peas roti. Flavour was good. Could have had more chick peas and not as much potato.
The food was excellent!
Friendly service and even better food! I walked in yesterday and ordered the Curry Chicken Roti and enjoyed it, it was quite mild but very delicious. So I went back today for the Jerk Chicken Roti, (which was even better than the Curry) and made sure to pick up a small hot sauce to add to it. WOW! I m going to try and pick up a bottle of their hot sauce before I leave town. It s incredible!
If you would like to try something new, this is the right place!
Very friendly staff. Ox-tail, lamp and Jerk chicken. The best, yum!.
Had the goat roti and jerk pork. Both were fantastic. They have a wide variety of exotic imported beverages as well. Their in-house sauce is available for purchase as well, and it is very good. Service was prompt and friendly.
Awesome food, quick service.... the kitchen staff werent wearing masks though, disappointing, and the roti are crazy expensive.
Family business, friendly staff and fresh food. I like the spices and flavors.
The staff is so friendly, and the food is outstanding! The food really brings me back to the Carribean.
Fantastic food, such a depth of flavour in the meats and sauces. Havent tried them in a roti yet but the gravies mix amazingly with the rice.
Took a chance and I am happy to report that this is now my new favourite place to eat in Sudbury! I had the macaroni pie and chicken today and I am very happy!! You will not be disappointed! 25/10!
Great service and great tasting food.
Jerk chicken was AMAZING
Excellent food and great value for the portions
Friendly service, good sized portions - very delicious!! I had the Ox tail with rice, macaroni salad and a side of curried potatoes - very good! Highly recommend!
First of all ,it was a waste of money and time. The food is dry, I got the curry goat and it was dry amd had no taste The only good thing on the plate was the plantain I ended up disappointed and angry No spice ,not enough seasoning,dry as heck,small portions The food was just a waste of money
Always great!
100% Authentic and cook with LOVE!! So good!!
Best Caribbean Restaurant in Sudbury. Enjoy a nice curry goat and oxtail with my visit. Had an amazing time. Nikki and Ben are just the best.
Everything is above and beyond. From the food to the drink selection. Truly amazing!
best Caribbean restaurant!! I come here everytime I visit Sudbury!! highly HIGHLY recommend :)
Excellent dishes
Best carribean food!!
This restaurant is owned by beautiful people and cook amazing food. They provide real and authentic West Indian
Amazing! I eat here often. The staff is very quick and very friendly. I always get the festivals. When you go make sure you dip them in any left over gravy with your food. The coleslaw is always fresh and they make it in house. There isn t anything like this in Sudbury!! If your taste buds are bored with the bland food around town you have to go here. This food is sooooo expensive in Toronto but the prices here are actually reasonable. I ll be back again soon
Service is fabulous, the food is amazing! It s really hard to find authentic Jamaican food and this really reminds me of back home cooking.
Nikki is the BEST! Treat yourselves to her Caribbean home-cooked meals and more!
Wow! The food is amazing. My favorite is a fried fish. Ill definitely be back!
What a wonderful experience! I had an exceptional experience with the staff, very caring and gave me service right away, very good vibes! Staff was prompt and wearing the appropriate masks and gear! The food tasted great, I love oxtail and honestly it was way more than I expected! Overall Will defiantly come back!
Best jerk pork I had in Sudbury :/ It s ok, if you need that fix gone.
Food was so good I didnt even stop to take a picture. Will definitely come back next time Im in the area
Great eats
Amazing food and friendly staff! Would like to come back again!
As soon as I saw the ox tail gravy going on the rice and peas I knew I was home , amazing jerk chicken food was off the charts good.
If you havent tried this place yet youre missing out on one of the best restaurants in the city. Incredible food.
I ordered two times prior to this day, the quality of the orders were fantastic! I enjoyed it. However, today I am most disappointed. The porc was dry and tough,also very salty. I ordered the double meat options, second option was the oxtail,it was just kk. The coleslaw taste like sink water,no flavor. Consistency is what I expected. So disappointed. ****************************************** Thrice times!!! Disgusted by the quality of the snapper, specifically asked for crispy fish, only to receive microwave warmed up day old fish, chewy like rubber! This incident two weeks ago through skip the dishes, refund issued! **************************. Why I went back yesterday, I dont know! I SENT MY FRIEND TO PURCHASE YET AGAIN THE SNAPPER, I GAVE SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS. THEY CHARGED HIM $36 FOR A ROCK BASE SIZE SNAPPER WITH WHITE RICE AND A CARIBBEAN MANGO JUICE. YET THE MENU QUOTE WAS ANOTHER PRICE. I ORDER OFTEN ENOUGH FROM THESE THIEVES! THIS HOWEVER, WAS A REPORTABLE OFFENSE. BETTER BUSSINESS BUREAU HAS BEEN CONTACTED BY ME. THE FOOD WAS TAMPERED WITH, AS THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHO THE ORDER WAS FOR. BIG MISTAKE FLAMES! YOUR MISTAKE IS CLEARLY GREED AND YOUR SPITEFUL BEHAVIOR IS YOUR ULTIMATE UNDOING! YOU WONT LAST LONG IN THIS TOWN. A DIEU.
This food is delicious!!!!!
First time visit and the food was amazing love it its a place I recomend to go
One of my favorites here in Sudbury. The jerk chicken is awesome here and service is always great
Excellent jerk chicken! Highly recommend this place.
Good curry goat dinner and good service
Amazing I love their food and their service love ot
This place has really great roti. I have always enjoyed their cuisine and it s hard to find a local place that does great caribbean food but Flames surely does!
Basically, If your in Sudbury youll have to settle for this!
Delicious! Loved the homemade hot sauce and the goat curry!
The only place in Sudbury for Caribbean food
Small selection, food was ok
Delicious food
We tried the goat curry which was excellent with rice and peas. The snapper was good but like most small fish was mostly bones - but really nicely cooked and presented.The food was hot and well-packed. By calling ahead you get quick service. There was no rum cake today, but the pineapple upside-down cake was delicious. Fire Flame is open daily, so is a good place to pick up food when others are closed. Well be back.
Rotisserie are great
We always have their jerk chicken its so good.
Delicious , I ve never experienced Caribbean food before and this was absolutely delicious. Tasted amazing , felt extreme comfort like it was home cooked food. Everyone must try the oxtail it s incredibly moist and juicy falls apart in your mouth. Delicious 10 out of 10 ! Thank you for letting me experience your culture. Support local everyone !
I may be judging them to harshly, as a Jamaican my expectations were not met. Their macaroni pie was exceptionally disappointing. The oxtail was tough. I have had their jerk chicken before which is what prompted me to visit. I am hoping to give them another shot... hopefully then my view can improve
Solid meal. Ordered the large jerk chicken and it was a lot of food, and the quality of the chicken was fantastic.
Great jerk chicken!! I lived in Toronto for 20 years and tried a lot of jerk chicken. Fire Flame is up there with the best.
Jerk chicken/macaroni salad/rice was awesome. Def recommended you stop by.
Awesome Caribbean food .Quick service
Jerk Roti was great, had the Jerk pork side.. Hot.. Dynamite.. Best I have had.. I will be back
The food is great, exactly what youd expect. Could have a little bit more heat to the spice but I think thats more Sudbury than the business though.
Best food in town! Excellent service! Friendly atmosphere!
Absolutely great authentic Carribean food. Just wonderful.
Although the food was good, I felt that it was over priced and small in portion for what you pay for it. Plus, I couldnt get what I wanted at dinner time because they didnt have it.
Large ox tail over rice and peas. Properly yummy!
Wicked Caribbean food, best in sudbury! Big up Flames
LOVED IT! I went here for lunch with me dad a little while ago and got the jerk chicken roti. I had never been here before so I was excited to try something new and it was amazing. Not only was the food I tried good but the person who served us was really nice as well! Definitely worth a try if youre looking for somewhere new to try! :)
There foos is really good and the woman that work in there are fine
Yummy jerk chicken
Originally from Toronto and moved away to a very small town so visiting a city gave me the opportunity to look up some Jerk chicken. Found this little gem (only place in Sudbury) and couldnt have been more impressed! Price was up there but portion was perfect and was some of the best Jerk chicken I have had in a very long time. Thank you!!!
One of my favourite places to eat in town
AWSOME!!!!!
This place is bomb!! Great service with a big smile! If you want Carribean done right, go here... The smells are amazing as soon as you walk in and the only thing thats better is the taste. The macaroni is unexpectedly delicious as well, perfect perfect perfect thing to go with that jerk chicken and the curry is out of this world!
Only jamaican restaurant in sudbury
Unbelievable food! I ordered the goat roti and was truly blown away by the quality of the meal. The spices were flavourful and complex, the meat was tender and you could tell that it was stewed low and slow for a good stretch of time. Considering what a terrible winter this has been, this was truly a nourishing meal! As an aside, the staff was also helpful and friendly. She took the time to talk to me about the different kinds of foods they offer, as I am borderline ignorant concerning Caribbean fare. I really appreciated my experience all around. Thank you!
Great service all the time. She even made me porridge one morning. Only place worth eating at in Sudbury.
Expensive but the food is fantastic
Excellent food at good value
Better not pass this one by
Amazingly great food. We frequently purchase West Indian and Jerk spiced takeout food, yesterday we went to Fire Flame Jerk for the first time and the food was delicious. We purchased both boneless Jerk Chicken roti and Curry Chicken roti. Both selections were the best we have tried and we have been to many different roti and Jerk takeout locations. Highly recommended
I absolutely love this place. I want to try other things there but I cant get past the jerk chicken lol
I had never experienced authentic Jamaican cuisine, never would have thought to eat such things as oxtail or curried goat but thanks to Nicky and her amazing cooking skills it is my favorite place to eat on the go. I do hope you are around for a very long time.
Awesome as good as the one on the beach in Jamaica
Fantastic Caribbean cuisine! All food is home made, and portions are generous. If you have not tried this yet, make a point of stopping here. You will not be disappointed.
Great good
Love the food
Not bad, watch for bones!
Great jerk chicken.
We had oxtail and jerky chicken with rice it was awesome! Portions generous ! Patties are delicious as well. Highly recommend.
Was disappointed in the roti. Found it gritty. Ate the filling only.
Wowza!! I almost did a double-take when I first drove past this last week (I dont live in Sudbury, but I do occasionally visit my mom, and I dont often travel on Notre Dame). Unfortunately, mom doesnt like spicy food, so when the opportunity arose that I was on my own for dinner, I KNEW Id be trying some Jerk Pork!! LOL I had already scanned the website & the online menu, so I kinda had an idea what I wanted However, when I got into the restaurant, I met a lovely couple who gave some advice about a few menu items, so I ended up adding a Festival & a slice of black cake to my order.... and then I couldnt wait to get home! Ill definitely get food from here again! The jerk pork had a delicious, sweet heat that wasnt overpowering (well, to me, anyway)... the rice & beans werent dry (the gal behind the counter offered to top them with oxtail gravy, so I took her up on that idea -- yummm!), and the coleslaw was a perfect complement to the heat of the pork. The Festival was way bigger than I expected, after seeing it online -- Im partial to carbs, so I thoroughly enjoyed eating it And Im so full, I dont have room for the cake, so Ill try it tomorrow.
Best Goat Curry in GWN.
Great service and excellent food! Love the selection of tropical drinks especially the Sorel and ginger
Place is clean, food is tasty and fresh and the people who run it are wonderful ! A must try !
The best Jamaican Restaurant ....and the service is awesome
Excellent but expemsive
Very tasty
Love it real Jamaican peaple
Loved it. Would definitely drop by on my next visit to Sudbury
Great rotis!
Unreal Carribean cuisine. I was brought right back home with my husdband tonight enjoying the Curried Goat and Stealing bites of my daughters Jerk Chicken. It doesnt get more Authentic then this. Amazing job bringing these dishes from the sun to the snow. Im so so satisfied. So good!!!!!! Thank you for such a delicious dinner
Food is wicked. Worth every dollar
Great for trying something new. Highly recommend the ox tail.
