Kish's Roti & Doubles (Formerly Lena's) in North York

I would recommend this place to anyone who isnt a west Indian and couldnt tell the difference of how west Indian foods should taste

Best doubles you will EVER taste. Open 24 hours!!!

My boyfriend and I use to order from here very frequently on Uber eats they have the buy 1 get 1 free deal very often. I always ordered that deal but yesterday, we had such a horrible experience. We ordered 3 sets of buy1 get 1 free doubles and we got charged for more than the receipt showed, but then we only got 3. The delivery was better than the food. And the food came cold and soggy and was not the quality that we usually use to receive. We called and spoke with the girl that answers the phone there and right away she handed the phone to an older man. Didn t get his name, but he has a heavy trini accent. He had the nerve to tell us to take it up with Uber. Uber was not the problem. It s the same order we always got so we re not sure why this time was different when the order was placed the exact same way. That man comes off as a crook. On top of the food quality being so poor, so was the customer service. I am more than disappointed in this place. Will NEVER be ordering from here again. This place use to be good, but I have a feeling the man I spoke to is the reason why this business is going downhill. The bad reviews I see here, I would be ashamed. And the girl on the phone knew right away that this issue was that man and that s why she rushed to hand him the phone so he can bullshit us. Never again!!! He had the nerve to tell me on the phone that he doesn t want to argue with me and he hung up the phone.

Amazing food. Great service. Can get doubles at 8am and earlier. Just call first !!!

Ordered bhaingan bharta on doordash around 02:00 A.M. whoever made it thankyou soo much it was the best.

Has to be one of the worst chicken chowmein i ever had # be consistent Food

Had a double roti and got severe food poisoning. I spoke to the owner and he didnt even apologize. He was in complete denial. Such a shame way to make a living feeding poison to customers. This person is all about money.

Today is Saturday Oct 5th at 534 pm Eastern standard time .. my wife ordered food from this establishment last night around 957pm.. she has been throwing up and in the washroom with diarrhea experiencing cold sweats after eating this food. It is now 5:35pm Saturday Oct 5th and she is still in servere pain with cold sweats and diarrhea.. we will be going to the hospital .. already spoke to the owner in text, he doesnt seem to have much sympathy.. this is a horrible situation, I pray my wife will be ok

I ordered 4 doubles and 1 chicken dhal soup.. after eating this food a couple hours later I was experiencing vomiting and diarrhea.. I ordered this food at 9:57pm on Uber eats on Oct 4th and it is now Oct 5th at 550pm, and I am experiencing vomiting, diarrhea and cold sweats feeling like I am going to pass out. I will be going to the hospital .. this is a terrible situation and I pray I will be ok.. absolutely terrible, this is the result of bad food .. the owner doesnt seem to have much sympathy, he thinks offering me my 26$ refund would help this situation, the problem is he served me bad food not 26$....what a joke, health and safety should for sure inspect this restaurant... I was reading other reviews as well 10 minutes before I wrote this message and there are some awful awful reviews .. one guy complained about sour chicken, another guy complained about plastic in his food. This is disgusting

Very disappointed. I ordered doubles, these people do not have any ethical standards, the food was spilling out of the wrapper all over in the paper bag, the person who took the order rushed me off the phone. I could go on and on but.....

I didnt expect Indian food, I didnt see not one Carribean person in this establishment. I was shocked after taking a bite I was not able to get up from the toilet. What ever you do Dont EAT THE DOUBLES unless you have a strong belly. Ive only been there ONCE keep in mind but that experience was good enough not to return. Ive had doubles all over the city and this is one I will not return to. Lady on the phone was nice spoke fast understood very little as we had to repeat ourselves multiple times. I might return if I know theres a Carribean chef

Not worth the price. The girl put bare minimum chickpeas in my doubles. Terrible

Appreciate this place being opened 24 hours because I work late shifts so it s always good when I crave something from back home. Also very good prices and good taste in my opinion I never got disappointed. Vegetarian options: Very good vegetarian options

Open 24/7!!! Take win already. These hours are exactly what Ive been dreaming of. The flavour of their doubles was one point. Perfectly textured and flavoured bussup shot and dhalpuri. I cant wait to try other items on the menu. UPDATE: Unfortunately, I just stick to their doubles and paratha.

Ordered from here twice, really enjoyed the doubles, phulorie and jerk chicken meal

This is the first place I saw which opens 24/7 very convenient for me and my wife when we finish our work midnight we just go there buy our food and go home very friendly

Doubles is good

Ordered big $4 peanut punch and I was given a ginger ale. In this economy??!! Never again!!!

Food

Delicious food, large variety, great prices, friendly and clean

We had the doubles, and they were so delicious. Would have it everyday if I could.

This place is just WOW! I admire halal Caribbean/Trinidadian cuisine and the menu items of this takeout restaurant are made with perfection. Prices are affordable and the staffs are friendly, too. Higher recommended. Food

Bought 2 doubles and it was the Nastiest doubles I ve ever tasted. Throw them both out

Tasteless and dry. For 17.00??...Naa never again

24 hr Caribbean Food Takeout! Delicious saltfish and tomato paratha roti!Sweet Boneless Curry Chicken Paratha Roti says my 15 year old son. Trinidad treats made 24hrs a day!Lenas has mastered their craft!24hrs a day practice!Delicious Caribbean Food!I drove 52 miles for a treat!

Doubles go to, best deal in tdot. Thank you! Call n order ahead 10 mins min. Dont rush them unless you want hard channa Food : 5/5

I have been to many of the other Lena s locations and by far this was the worst inside and out! Parking lot was full of potholes, had to wait for someone to come from the kitchen to take my order and the food was not fresh. I ordered a curry dish and rice was piping hot but the protein was cold inside and to the bottom which suggests it was microwaved. That s not what you expect for the price. Doubles were ok but very oily! Hope the 24 hour service works but not if the food is warmed and served. A big fail in my book for quality and service.

food and service was good and prompt. just wish they had a seating area

Disgusted is not even the word!!! URRGHHH I ordered this meal from Uber eats thinking that I will be enjoying a hot, fresh, tasty chicken roti with slight pepper and tamarind sauce. Lo and behold, to my surprise, when I open up the bag and took the roti out, I instantly realized that it wasnt hot or warm and I also got a little sour scent. I decided to open up the roti and the scent was stronger... I took a bite of piece of chicken and immediately had to spit it out.. These people sent me a roti with sour meat, dhal and sauce... if you know anything about curry, youll know that once curry is a day old or out in the Heat for long, how it taste and smell.. I was so livid. How the hell you can consciously put stale curry in a roti and send for someone?? What type of madness is this. I couldnt even have my lunch because these nasty ppl sent me a bad curry... So pissed

I took one bite nd bough a round of roti for the whole family out of town.

Parking: There are many businesses using parking Recommended dishes

Ive been a customer for years I recently ordered 2 paratha and they got a promotion buy one get one free , firstly this isnt a promotion you are cutting one paratha in half !! Secondly whoever is making these paratha does not know how to make a trini paratha!! When I got home with the paratha I had to reheat them and they hot very hard as after 10 mins of sitting on the table truly disappointed!!!

I love the buy 1 get one free goat and jerk chicken doubles great business strategy for the price. Because of the tamerine sweetness I recommend getting it extra spicy to balance the flavors.

A friend introduced me to Lenas Roti & Doubles. It was the first time I had heard of a delicacy called Doubles , and since that day, I have come to discover more and more with Lenas. Ohhh, did I forget to add that they have a special deal where you buy one and get one free? Try Lenas Roti & Doubles...you can thank me later.

Doubles were so good, we might drive all the way back to the area soon just for the amazing doubles

worst roti I ever bought

Lovely experience

The server messed up my order, and it wasnt corrected. The South Asian lady should be taught properly what Carribean food is. I ordered aloo pie the woman gave me doubles. Like, really? It doesnt even sound the same.

I had a double and the chicken roti. They were both very fresh and tasted amazing! I would give them both a 10/10! Amazing flavour and freshness. Thank you Lena s! Eddystone location

Great staff. New girl at cash is great and the girl helping her/cooking(?) was great. Will definitely be back :)

Great experience at this location.. had a big order to pick up last Saturday for Roti and pholourie ; there was a mixup but hats off to Kish he rectified the issue right away. Roti was pretty good and service was very good at the store. Had a doubles for the drive and was good too.

My brother paid $38 for a curry goat roti and curry chicken roti but once we left we discover that both orders was chicken (not boneless )

This place is a hit and miss .

Best Roti and doubles ever!!

I came here to get take out and the food was good! It was still hot and fresh after an hour and a half. We got three doubles, jerk with beans and rice, and spinach. Portions were huge for a medium and the doubles were SO flavourful! (And definitely SPICY if you ask for it) Vegetarian options: Spinach!

Yummy!!!! The jerk chicken and peas is one of the best!!!

Buyer beware.

Ordered boneless curry goat. Instead of bones I got tiny pieces of black plastic from chipped cooking utensils. Cashier didnt know the price of my order. Also ordered mild doubles, got spicy ones. Wont be back.

The vibes of this restaurant are amazing! The owner is super welcoming and the food quality is so fresh! Overall 5 stars.. Food

Got this from Uber eats. The food I got was a bit salty and its not as good as other locations. Uber also had a special for 2 for 1 doubles I ordered three and only got three. Unfortunately I will be crossing this place off my places to eat on Uber eats sorry just being honest.

1st time visiting here and was pleasantly surprised

Of all the random little hideaway shops this place took the crown. I was out there looking for a different event and came across Lenas and OMG! It was super late and they still took my order. The staff was super sweet and fast considering I asked for four Doubles and a lamb Roti. Parking: Not what you would expect but if youre in the area for sure a good idea to stop in.

Doubles were okay. Aloopie wasn t that good. Pholouri tasted super old and disappointing. Had a stomach ache after eating.

This small restaurant had great tasting food For sure. Most of these other roti places need to have a taste test of their food and re-evaluate what they are selling I don t want to call names. But yes this food was excellent. Food

The woman in this shop moves way too slow. The rotis were just ok

Doubles , doubles , doubles . One of my favourite spots to get doubles . It s soo good

OMG! So good!

The customer service is horrible! They take your order and charge you and when they forget an item on the menu they say we never charged it or it s not on the menu when it s clearly there, and they never give a receipt even when you ask. These people are thieves! Don t bring your money there. The food is cold and horrible too.

Delicious doubles, as good as from Trinidad & even better than some locations in Trinidad! We used to enjoy Drupatis doubles since we moved here in 1995 but they have long lost their way. We switched over to Lenas about 1 year ago, they put care into their doubles. Very tasty, hot & fresh. (Eddystone Location) Thank you!

I was at Eddystone,I saw it says Lena roti doubles ,knowing Im from the Caribbean,Im saying let me go to check them out,upon entering the establishment,I ordered a chicken roti which was $13 something which came to $15 something,she came out with the roti and I said what that is the roti,I couldnt believe this for my money,I was absolutely disappointed.I got to my home eating the roti 3 piece of chicken and 1 potato,I was am so mad about my money I paid for this.Called them and she is telling me send her a picture and Im telling her that is what you gave for my money,she is telling me if I want her manager no#.I would never buy anything there or recommendanyone to them,Im from the Caribbean and this a huge disappointment buying food. The roti skin took only is full with only with 3 chicken and potato,not even curried gravy for the roti

I love love love the food at Lena s. All of the staff members are super friendly and kind. The prices are fair and definitely worth it because the food portions are filling and taste is delicious. Their sauce is literally what makes me come back every time. Killer and pairs well with their dishes. A must try.

Amazing service, very good food. I love it there.

The best doubles in the city in my opinion and Ive tried doubles throughout Toronto. I love that they put a good amount of Tamarind in them. The customer service is also great.

good place Roti and chicken

Awesome place for a quick curry while on lunch! The spice level is always proper and the serving size is massive for the price on offer. Definitely a place to re-visit when hunger calls for it

This place for sure has some of th best Doubles in Toronto hands down, also the ppl that work here are very nice and pleasant to speak with. If you havent tried this spot please go and try it out you wont be disappointed.

Went there for some Doubles for the first time and my doubles were tasteless, had no shape to them looked as if they were just thrown in the wax sheet and wrapped liked you would a napkin at the end of a meal. They need to put more love into your food. I guess the sign on the front desk saying cook with Trinidadian food experience wanted was a clue.

I love this place. I ordered take out. The flavours are great and fast delivery.

I am a regular here. Favourites include the curry mango, bone in curry chicken and pholouri. The service is friendly and they make it just right! Just the way I like it. I am ready to try other menu items. This week the salt fish portion was just right.

You need to stop using Indian people from India to cook Trinidadian Indian food. I had the worst saheena today. And the doubles is no where close to what it use to be. It was so off culturally. It doesn t taste like Trinidadian food. Please get cooks that know our culture and what the food should taste like. So disappointed. It use to be so good.

The food is good but the portions are so small for the amount of money you spend. They should increase the amount and not be so stingy. Also, check your order before you leave. They charge you for pepper sauce and dont even include it in the order. Dont think Ill order from here again anytime soon if at all.

The roti is nice and fresh

Food is great, clean and friendly service.

Hidden gem of Jane & Finch. Best doubles in the city hands down.

Had Boneless Chicken Roti.. with a little bit of hot sauce. It was good!!! Nice hidden spot!! Keep up the good customer service!! We will keep coming back!!

My mom loves your doubles . Shes really picky about her doubles since shes a Trini . I ordered some yesterday and she needed more today lol!

I think they need to be covid friendly

AWESOME FOOD AND PEOPLE!

Best doubles and Aloo pie outside Trinidad and Tobago . Always fresh, quick service and the buy 5 get 5 free beats any deal around! Product eaten before pictures can be taken...theyre THAT good.

Always great food!

Love Lena s, food was fresh and so delicious

Literally a hidden gem. The original franchise owners can be found here along with that traditional West Indian flare youve come to expect with our food. The taste will rekindle your longing for home.

Very clean. Detailed menu. Friendly staff, fast service. Chadon beni available for purchase, fudge and cassava cake. Love when I see pumpkin on the menu and aloo pies.

So good. Had the duck Roti and the jerk Roti. Both styles were phenomenal. My new favourite spot.

Real Trinidadian taste and flavor...

I m very particular about where I order my food. I read great reviews here and decided to buy doubles from this location. Upon arrival, the staff were rude to me and on top of that, I found steel wool in my food. I decided to throw away the food without any questions as I just finished work and was very tired but just wanted to let you guys know. Very disappointing, I hope next time (if i come back) will be better.

Dont eat here guys roti was disgusting

Ordered a roti combo and found a piece of hair in my food.

Horrible service and the food was very dry and no flavour

Just wanted to say thank you for the awesome food and service! You guys are next level amazing Your lunch specials and full size meals are always so fresh and tasty. From roti to doubles and every dish in between that we have tried has been absolutely delicious! Wishing you guys continued success and I have recommended you to everyone of my family and friends and we look forward to continuing to support your business! Best food and service!!! 5 stars all the way!!

Amazing food, with wonderful customer service. The best place to come for Doubles and great West Indian food. Happy to see they opened another restaurant. Proud of Aunty Lena and Uncle Kish, and their family.

Awesome Roti the medium size Roti is big I could only imagine the large. The restaurant looks clean and lots of items to purchase. The location is so hidden hopefully some better signage at the street entrance to direct folxs to the exact entrance to the restaurant. There is no washroom there so be careful is you really need to go ! Lol but this restaurant is really good for their doubles as well.

Food is very delicious and fresh. Love the veg. platter deal.

the doubles are amazing and everyone at work loves the food and go there on a regular basis. the staff, ramen , is very friendly and easy to deal with

The roti to is good the doubles but it makes no sense paying twice for bags to hold and carry their food we bought from them I know with business materials are included with everything so why should I pay again for a bag to carry the food how would I carry the food then without a bag next time consider your costumers whether you want them to return or not because it says in the way things are priced price says come back again and price can say dont return

I moved to the area and my sister-in-law sent the vegetarian plate, which lasted until the next day. Im not vegetarian, but it was so good i went to the restaurant 2 days later and ordered the plate & Roti & 2 doubles. I was told i would get free doubles due to some deal - i didnt get the free ones, but the food was so good i didnt care. Im coming back today

If I knew what Id be getting I definitely would not have made the decision to purchase from this establishment. Whichever location I got on Doordash. I paid 13+ dollars for the boneless chicken thinking Id be getting at least roti with it. Nope. Nothing but one tiny container of chicken. This feels like a joke. Do better. 1 measly star because at the very least it smells like authentic curry.

This restaurant is a huge disappointment, everytime I check the website it says open but when you go there...theres a sign on the door says close. Waste my time, drupatie is the best and always will be the best .

Roti is Deals are ($6.99 roti specials) Service is

Hidden gem in the city. Must have driven past this place a hundred times. Decide to stop in and pick up dinner tonight. Roti s and doubles. Food was amazing!!! The lady running the front was so nice and friendly. Will be back for sure.

Awesome jerk chicken roti and doubles!

Friendly service

Food is always made fresh from scratch custom to your order and tastes amazing. The owner is always willing to engage in friendly conversation with a smile. Daily specials are great

Listen, I dont give 5 stars very often but when i write a review its either because its really bad or really good. This place is the absolute definition of A CARIBBEAN RESTAURANT, most restaurants that carry that title literally only sells jamaican dishes, but this place has a combination of most! I ordered the rice with callaloo and stew chicken yesterday and it was literally a hug in a box, i fell asleep almost instantly after because i was so satisfied and contented, it hit the spot, like it tastes so good and authentic and Im trini, so i needed that dasheen bush callaloo with the coconut flavour and that chadon beni taste in the stew chicken. Trust my review and give this place a try...you wont be disappointed!

Friendly service and excellent west indian food

The BEST place for doubles, roti, shark & bake. Everything on the menu is absolutely delicious!!

Not good

Good, Quality Food. Pricing is decent and so is the quantity. Only complain and tip for others, know your spice level while ordering. If you asl for hot sauce or tamarind sauce on the side, they will charge you. Or else it is a five star experience.

I think the first location I tried food from Lenas was the Brampton location and I been ordering from Eddystone recently. The food just reminds me of back home. Doubles in the early morning especially are the best

Absolutely amazing. I ve never physically been to this restaurant but one Sunday i felt like eating doubles so i punched it in in Uber eats and Lena s came up. I was hesitant to try it because I have had doubles in Toronto that weren t that great. But what the hell i gave it a try. I bought doubles, aloo pie and pholorie and i was so satisfied. It was delicious and authentic really took me back to eating doubles after market on a Sunday morning. I enjoyed it so much I ordered again next the Sunday (adding a sahenna this time). I will definitely try to visit the actual location sometime soon.

Clean store front & very friendly staff. Staff even remembered what my friend had the last time.

Ordered their delicious food, everyone likes in my family

Been driving by this place for a few weeks since it opened and have been wanting to try it, finally got the chance and boy am I glad I did, the food was amazing!!! The staff were super friendly and pleasant to deal with, the inside was immaculate ! Fresh and clean design and not at all expected from something inside an industrial area, but pleasantly surprising!!! If you like Doubles or Roti and you are in this area, you HAVE to try this place out !!!

Been to the other locations, always great food. Work right around the corner from here and went to check it out, new location. Owners a real G and takes care of his customers, food is blessed. The new go to forsure.

My sister and I went and had the most AMAZING fish soup! Fresh, Hot and Delicious! And with added fresh pepper, upon request. This is authentic, west Indian food made just the way mamma used to! The restaurant is clean and staff are friendly. Service is prompt and theres a wide variety of traditional food to choose from. I highly recommend Lenas!

Lena s Roti is Amazing! When you have a meal from here, it s makes you feel warm and satisfied inside! Lena and Kish have wonderful customer service and you can taste it through their food! Always Happy to order from here!

I have been ordering food from the original Lenas owners for over 10 years now and it has been nothing short of excellent each and every time. This newest location is nothing different. The food is amazing, fresh and very fast service. The prices at this new location is very reasonable as well. Definitely worth the drive from Brampton. Would recommend this location to anybody looking for good fresh and authentic food.

Lenas Roti food has been great over the years. Ive gotten to know the family over the years, and they are amazing people. They work hard over the years, and Im proud of them. They make sure they make food that everyone enjoys. I HIGHLY encourage everyone to visit and get a taste of great Trinidadian food, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Lenas over the years of great service.

Lenas always has top quality food wherever their locations are in GTA. Doubles, Roti, Aloo Pie, Talkerie always great quality and exceptional taste!
