Dolly's Jerk Joint in Sarnia

Small take-out restaurant with a high dose of home cooking flavours. Walking in here is the equivalent of walking into someones kitchen in a Caribbean island. Food is delicious and the service is excellent.

Must try the patties! They re incredible

This place is fantastic. Located in the small city of sarnia but worth the drive off the 402 to get this amazing food. No scrimping here on products and the prices are not bad. Visit here you will not be disappointed. Oxtails are my favorite ! So worth it.

Dollys is my go to when Im in town visiting. Dollys food is made with pure love! Best flavours of the island. Best patties Ive ever eaten. Jerk chicken and rice with peas. Love the wrap too A lil dose of Dollys smile ..sends me off a happy girl. My favorite place to eat in town.

Dollys is the best for pasties and Caribbean fare, busy little place awesome food great service, friendly, with the feel of the islands Thanks Dolly, your the best Food

The Jerk chicken here is absolutely delicious. Its set up like a takeout place, so I recommend ordering your food by calling.

This food is off the charts fresh and delicious. Ive had the curry chicken roti and the jerk chicken wrap. Both the roti and the wrap were rolled out, and cooked for the order. Fresh and delicious! The flavours are all there. You can tell Dolly cooks with love! 10/5

I just had the most delicious, well made jerk chicken wrap soo much flavor! I highly recommend this place, I cant believe Ive driven past it so many times not knowing how good it was. Food : 5/5

I love you and your food is amazing

I ordered the corn soup and jerk chicken wrap. The wrap was made right infront of me!!! The soup was the best corn soup I ve ever had. Reminded me of corn soup from Trinidad!!! Loved it. Will be back next work trip

Fire Go on Dolly . Perfect coleslaw

Had the Chicken Roti it was a great portion, it was the best Ive had, So glad I stopped in, such sweet ladies who served me, will definitely be back for more of your delicious food. Great Food and Amazing service, will recommend to others

Excellent Jerk Chicken !

Love the food there! The Curry goat is good

food is amazing everyone at dollys is uplifting welcoming and such a warm atmosphere. they catered my wedding in 2019 and many raved about the food and still do! Def my fav place for high quality food and people!

Parking: Easy to get in and out. Great service even greater good. Everyone should taste it. Recommended dishes

it was ok

Had chicken curry with rice. And, oh my god it was amazing. Im definitely going back Food

Dolly is always so pleasant and full of smiles or singing away while she cooks. No room to eat in, but so worth the take out. In the summer there is picnic table out front. Everything is made in kitchen. Her jerk is perfect and so are the roti!

It s now on my go to list for whenever I go back to Sarnia . You had to preorder the wrap since the roti was made fresh on the spot. And I m not someone who likes spice but I had it 2 days in a row since it was sooo good

Omg first time in. Will be back ... weve been to Jamaica many times felt at home from smells to music

A testament to how the best flavors are often found in small kitchens, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, with expert chefs grill. We had a generous portion of moist and delicious jerk chicken, a beautifully seasoned beef patty with a thin and flakey crust, and rounded our lunch off with a curried chicken roti that perfectly showcases the depth and complexity of caribbean food and its influences. A very well-deserved 5-star reputation - do yourself a favor and eat their food.

My first time here and the service was amazing. The food was fantastic. If you want authenticity, this is the place to go.

Great jerk chicken. Fast service. Cant ask for more in a takeout spot.

Had to wait for my food for over 20 min, No ac in the shop, loud music. Cant hear anyone talking. Small jerk was 14.50 plus tax. The rice was dry. Small portion for almost 17$.

Amazing food! Take out only, she needs a bigger place. You must try this food! a real treat.

Best Jerk food I have found in town. Music a wee too loud as it makes it difficult to communicate

If I could give 5+++++++ stars I would!!! Upon entering Dolly s the vibe and energy is so warm and welcoming. That s all coming from Dolly herself and the beautiful passionate woman she is and what she cooks up is truly coming from her heart and soul. Her passion really shines through the whole experience. Her cooking is amazing. I am visiting town and I m so happy I found this incredible restaurant by Dolly. I had the jerk chicken and it was so delicious with the meat so tender and moist that it fell off the bone. The flavours were so good. I also had the patty, which is made from scratch also and it s the best patty I ve ever tasted. Lastly, I had the soup which was a pumpkin soup and the flavours were so nice too with just the right consistency and a little bit of a kick to it! I LOVED everything and especially the service from Dolly. EVERYONE GO TRY IT!!! It ll be your favourite new craving!!! I m going back tomorrow to try the chicken roti and I can t wait!!! Thank you for being so hospitable Dolly! SARNIA is very lucky to have you!!!

Best beef patty and jerk chicken wrap I ve ever had in my life. But the beef patty specifically was out of this world. I wish I could ve tried the doubles.. only place I will be eating any time I go to Sarnia.. Dolly s please baby come to Windsor and show them how it s done if I had photos, I would post them, but the food was already in my stomach before I remembered. 11/10.

Food is amazing! Service is amazing!

Best food in town always with a smile

My office ordered lunch from here today and it was delicious!! Very tasty jerk chicken, chicken curry, and jerk chicken wraps. Food was ready on time and am looking forward to trying more food from Dollys in the future :)

Very delicious, We had a beef patty and a jerk chicken wrap everything fresh!!! Amazing! We will be back 5/5

I enjoyed my first visit. Enjoyed the jerk chicken large meal

Was in town for an appointment with the wife. Saw Dollys when we drove past and I immediately pulled a u-turn. My wife has never had Jamaican. Im from Scarborough so I love it. This place was fire! Jerk chicken, rice and pea, patty and pineapple soda. My wife loved it, I loved it. The only problem is now I have to drive from London to Sarnia all the time to get it! Big up Dolly and crew.

Amazing food! You can t go wrong with anything on the menu. Definitely recommend this local family owned business. Dolly is a fantastic woman.

Best Patties in town by far. Chicken is also amazing and my favorite is Oxtail

I love this place! I go at least twice a month! amazing food, Dolly and her staff are always so friendly!

Great jerk chicken, don t listen to the people that say it s dry, dry can be ok!!!

Went there for first time, had the best beef patty, jerk chicken wrap, and jerk chicken with rice. Highly recommended food. Couple was really nice. Keep up the good work guys. , definitely would be coming next time.

best jerk in town!

Tonight I ordered from this place: my neighbor. Ive ordered several times since the place opened a few years ago, but my limited income doesnt allow me to buy take out very often. When i do...its most often Dollys. Ordered at 4:30 pm and told her Id pick it up at 5:30pm to give her enough time to make it (all food is freshly made and prepared from scratch). When I arrived at 5:30, she was super apologetic, as she had been hit with multiple orders from other customers that wanted their food sooner (since it was around the supper hour) and she hadnt yet had time to prepare my order. I didnt mind and at the time, I inquired about if she had bottled her jerk sauce for sale to the public. She said yes, and said she would include a bottle with my order free, to make up for my order not having yet been made. I thanked her for her gift to me; as I didnt expect her to give it to me for nothing. When I arrived at 6pm to retrieve my order; she also gave me an extra beef patty. I never asked for anything special; but Dolly just threw in these 2 extra items at no charge (a $14-16 value, before tax). Her unexpected act of kindness was much appreciated and also shows to her business acumen. Dollys takes care of their customers AND sells great tasting Caribbean food. If you want a real authentic taste of the Caribbean, and awesome great friendly service; you GOTTA check this place out!

Great place. Dolly is awesome

Great food and friendly people

Absolutely delicious.

While waiting for a take out lunch that I dont get to do often, a food delivery driver was also picking up a meal for an online customer. He picked the bag up and tilted it to carry it by the open end of the bag. They had placed it on its side. The staff stopped him, opened the bag, opened the container, looked at the meal and told him it was no longer good to deliver. She cooked a fresh order made him wait another 7 minutes or so, then instructed him on how to pack the meal so it met their standards. Well done! I love the food always, but seeing that level of awareness for how your meals leave is out of sight!

Very delicious. I had their jerk chicken. Friendly staff. Just thought the food was very small amount for the cost.

Since trying a month ago, I have already eaten here a few times, every time has been incredible! You can feel the love in Dollys food. I have so far tried her soups, curry chicken roti, jerk wrap and jerk chicken dinner. The flavours are amazing, and her soups are the best comfort food. Her sauces are so delicious. We have a jar of her salsa, and cant wait to use it at home. Im addicted!! Thank you so much Dolly!

I just finished the jerk chicken meal from Dollys. I have worked from west coast to east coast and that was one of the best jerk chicken meals Ive had. I ordered ahead and glad we did. The place was very busy and the women were all happy and smiling. You could tell they love what they do, and it shows in the quality. Thank you Dollys. We will be back.

Excellent Pumpkin soup and Chicken Roti! Never disappointed with any of the selections of prepared and cooked on premises foods. Certainly beats bagged soup base and frozen entrees! Enjoy your culinary vacation to the Carribean without having to board a plane!

Swung by after a long day of work for dinner. Could taste the time and attention Dolly and her staff put into the food. Loved it, would recommend to anyone.

Awesome as usual!

Great vibes tasteful food, clean place well worth it. Open concept kitchen, you can see the food being made right infront of you!! A must try! From the gourmet patties with flakey crust, to the doubles and jerk chicken and rice & peas! ********** Good home food and friendly environment, definitely will come back!

Mmmmmm

Great and delicious food.

The jerk chicken here is absolutely incredible

Best food I had on my trip to Sarnia. Big portions and great quality.

I love Dollys so much! Delicious jerk chicken, beans and rice, and coleslaw. The patties are great and seasoned very well. The staff are always very kind and friendly.

Got Jerk Chicken. Chicken is not fresh , tastes not good. When you chew the dark meat , it became like ovecooked white meat . Rice wasn t cooked enough. Coleslaw jerk sauce is avarage.

Sooooo yummu

$18 is way too expensive for a small chicken roti. Never have I seen prices like that.

Neat atmosphere.. very friendly service. I had the Jerk Chicken Wrap and was very satisfied with my meal!!!!

Ordered for first time at Dolly s and have the most delicious Caribbean food in Sarnia, just love it!

Great food. Fast service.

Nice place and you get to see everything that theyre doing very friendly people nice food go check them out Parking: Big parking space

Great food, good value for money. Not sure if you can ask for spice. Standard jerk chicken and rice is not spicy.

I came from Brampton. Years ago.many places like Dollys .but none as good .great food .great staff.

I love Dolly s food! Anything on her menu will be tasty but my favourite is her jerk chicken quesadillas!! I ve been coming back for them pretty consistently. Her salsa and seasonings have so much flavour. Can be a little spicy if you can t handle hot sauce or sriracha heat level! The quesadillas have a nice kick because of the tender jerk chicken, spicy garlic mayo and salsa. The char on the tortilla adds a nice smoky flavour. Then the thinly sliced mango and caramelized onions add a hint of sweetness, tying it all together. So addicting and always made fresh!! If I were to recommend one thing from here it has to be the quesadillas. Her Roti and Jamaican Beef patties (all from from scratch) are also delicious. She always writes a cute thank you on the takeout box too :) a gem in Sarnia for sure!

Best Caribbean food in town !!

Authentic and friendly, good sized portions.

Food and service are great in this place!

Excellent food and always friendly

Excellent service and food!

Phenom service, staff and food. 10/10

Great atmosphere the moment u walk in there! Awesome food

Hands down BEST curried goat EVER! Am coming to visit sarnia just to eat their food! Spiced my dish up nice at my request. 5 stars is not enough. should of bought a couple more dishes to bring home cuz now I am sitting here hungry thinking bout their food! Get It!

Good jamaican patty

Always great food and service! Thanks Dolly

As a vegetarian its hard to find interesting options that arent burgers, salads, or rice. I love everything Ive tried for your restaurant and highly recommend it.

Not a single bad item on the menu. Super, friendly service, and always welcomed with a smile. Top quality food. An all time favorite spot

Great flavour, delicious meats! Great portions. You ve gotta try this!

I had the Jerk pork and its not only the best meal Ive had in Sarnia... It might have been the best meal Ive ever had. What do you put in that amazing rice????

Amazing food! Best jamaican patty in Sarnia! Certainly would not mind getting Dolly s everyday :D

Although it Doesnt taste like jerk to me at all. No bonnet heat no allspice flavors more just sweet and savory. Although not what I expected I will say it tasted like some of the absolute best BBQ chicken Ive ever had. Tender and moist perfection.

Omg!!! Omg!!! Omg!!! So good and tasty!!!! Mmmmmmmmm!!! Ouhhhhhhahh!!

Lets be real. The food in Sarnia is lacking, so when I drove my this place for the first time, my nose lead me to the door. The smells that waft on to the street make your taste buds beg for flavour, and Dollys delivers! Honestly some of the best damn food I have had. More people need to come here, support local and give your tastebuds the flavours they need in their lives. 10/10 will go back forever.

Best Caribbean food Ive had yet. Go give Dolly yer money.

Excellent service and food! Definitely will be back !

The food is always ready when you order it it s hot full of flavour. The jerk chicken wraps are by far my favourite amazing

Authentic delicious food, wonderful service at fair prices!!

My wife and I were wanting to try someplace new for dinner tonight and tried Dolly s Jerk Joint and OMG, that Curry Chicken Roti and the beef patty,l seriously best I have ever had and I have been to Jamaica. Will definitely be ordering from Dolly s again!

Amazing taste and great value, my new best place in Sarnia whenever I come down here.

my partner and i were in sarnia for the week with our newborn. one night we decided to support a local restaurant business, and eventually settled on dolly s (gotta support Black businesses when i can). by no means was this the best caribbean food i ve ever had, but the surprise of eating caribbean food in sarnia really elevated the experience for me. i appreciated that the patties were made from scratch. the chicken roti was the standout dish by far. the jerk pork was on the dry side for me, but the flavour was there. if you re in sarnia and have a hankering for some caribbean food then dolly s is your place.

The Jerk Pork with Rice and Peas is the best Ive had anywhere. Been there twice already this week.

This is probably the best Jamaican restaurant this side of Toronto. I dont remember what I had, but it involved Jamaican patties and jerk chicken and it was delicious! The only thing to be aware of is that I didnt find the food we ordered to be super spicy like youd expect when youre eating Jamaican. Thats ok though as I think the mild spiciness will make this place more accessable to people who arent big fans of spicy food.

This is literally the best Jerk chicken me and my family ever tried, my husband eats at least 2 times a week jerk chicken from a store close to us in niagara falls when we were in vacation in Sarnia we tried Dollys Jerk Joint we were amazed with the flavors really the best i ever tried and it was the mildest in term if heat and spices even my 3 year old enjoyed it and loved it and we also tried the jerk chicken quasadilla wow i cannot tell you enough how yummy and really special it with all the flavors , i highly recommend trying it and you will get hooked on

No other place in town comes close to the dankness of these Jamaican Patties. Dollys food is the OG when it comes to JPatties. Great flavour, immense portion and comes in mild/hot or beef/chicken and veggies. Her jerk chicken wrap is also fyre.

Excellent restaurant.. mouth watering dishes with a Saint Lucian flavour. Check out this restaurant today!! Anna and I enjoy Lunch today and so would you!

Friendly, delicious, all of the above

Great food ! Dollys secret spice blends are so good !

It was very good

I went to this spot today what a great place. Clean friendly and delicious. I asked about some of the more traditional Caribbean fares she told me she could whip them up with a day or so of notice. If you go dont forget to pick up some of she home made hot sauce I dont think you could find better.

Yummy

First time trying Dollys. Wow , Ive been missing out on this gem of a restaurant! Ordered the check chicken wrap and it was amazing! Perfectly spiced and seasoned chicken mixture, and the wraps she uses are homemade and quite possibly the beat Ive ever had! I highly recommend and will be back soon to try other dishes.

Visited Sarnia for work and decided to try this place (I always prefer supporting local) . I ordered the jerk chicken dinner (jerk chicken, rice, coleslaw). Individually, the parts of the meal were just OK (OK, the sauce was really good), but putting them altogether and... BAM! The combination of flavours was fantastic! The chicken was falling off the bone tender. One of the best jerk chicken Ive had. Definitely worth checking out if youre in the neighborhood.

The food was delicious and Dolly was so great!!!

They have the best oxtail. It is soooo good and tender yummy

Shes always friendly and the Jamaican Pattys are the best Ive had

When I come to Sarnia, Dollys is my go to. Her jerk chicken, and curry chicken are amazing. When you step into her joint the music puts you in the Caribbean mood for that round trip to flavour town! If you come to Sarnia and dont eat here, you are missing out.

Sooooo yummy!

Amazing service, food and Jamaican patties are fire!

Ive tried jerk chicken all over Ontario and this is by far the best. Delicious, fresh, sizeable portions. The sides are really great too and you can tell all of the food is made with love. Really great roti as well. Chill vibe for delicious takeout!

Food is always fresh and delicious, very friendly staff! Best Jamaican food you can find!

Best curry chicken in town also good goat and oxtail

Absolutely love this place sad there is not a delivery option tho ;(

Dolly your Pattys are the best!

First time going... I have to say it was amazing! Service with a big smile! The food is great and the portion size is just right. I got the jerk chicken with rice, pease and coleslaw. I will go back again!

The handmade beef patties were huge and delicious, so flakey! The dinner meal portions were a bit small but the flavours were on point. We got jerk chicken, rice and peas (pigeon peas not red kidney beans) and coleslaw. Dolly puts so much love and care in her food and you can taste it.

Amazing food

First time ordering as we are from out of town .. craving a rhoti .. oh my I have to say we were highly impressed everything was delicious we couldnt get it infast enough ..my grandson had the jerk chicken with rice he gives Dolly a 10 star ..not sure what the little container of sauce is but we all could have drank it yumaliscous lol.. will definitely be back it was a lovely drive and well worth it .. highly recommend Dolly if you are in Sarnia

I had read an article in the paper raving about Dollys food....so I had to try it. I ordered 2 chicken roti. She rolled the dough and cooked it on a flat cast iron pan and freshly heated up her chicken curry. The curry was perfectly seasoned...not too hot but just spicy enough. Her Roti is different than Jamaican roti Ive had on many occasions, as it had very little potato and ALL meat. I would say it was the best Roti I have ever had!!! Now it was not inexpensive but a fair price for the quality. If you want a taste of the Caribbean then head to Dollys.

Authentic Caribbean cooking. We had oxtail dinner which was fall off the bone and melt in your mouth meat. And jerk chicken with dirty rice wonderfully flavorful..

Dollys JJ offers a specific list of Jamaican style foods. Its a small takeout only restaurant. This increases the variety of ethnic foods available in Sarnia. Her food is freshly made with ingredients she is chopping/mixing as she is getting other orders done and on their way. She is a very busy person. The quality of the food is very good and it tastes authentic. I believe she is going to need to expand her business.

Good food but expensed

The food was off the chain under Dollys name! The flavours caused me to almost eat the bones from the jerk chicken. It was my first time in Sarnia, Ontario Canada and the first time ordering food here. Plus, I was served my meal in my car. Can you believe that? She even put a mint in my bag so that my breath, well except for the mask, doesnt smell of food.

The food here is amazing and the staff is very happy and friendly to deal with. Highly recommended!

First time here. We ordered the oxtail, jerk chicken and curry chicken, and the food was phenomenal. We will be back for more!

Totally the best lunch! Love jerk chicken combo

I liked the fish meal with rice and the mixture of vegetables .. I wish I could eat it every day .. She is a good Chief

My first time trying Dollys. Food was amazing, and not too spicy. Had the jerk chicken, with rice and coleslaw. The sauce they give was very tasty on the rice. The only issue I had was I was missing a pop. Which I dont hold any grudge for, as they just started using skip the dishes. Food is worth buying.

Amazing authentic Caribbean food. The jerk chicken is amazing the rice was also amazing. If you love spice ask for it extra spicy you won t be disappointed. I will be defiantly comming here once or twice a week. Everything was great. I highly recommended this restaurant.

Dollys is amazing. The food is awesome. If you ever get a chance to stop in and try it...DO IT!!

Best Jamaican beef Patty I ve had in my life.

Fantastic authentic Jamaican food. The best Chicken Roti I ve had since London UK. Do yourself a favour and drop by Dolly s for something truly delicious

Great food and beverage

Great food, super staff!! Crave it often!

Loved it! Yummy!!!

Dolly jerk joint, spotted in Sarnia to satisfy Caribbean Flavors. Wonderful food, traditional way of cooking by Dolly Boyce.

Excellent

I was not expecting to find home cooked Caribbean food in Sarnia. Dollys joint blew my socks off. Just like walking into Grandmas kitchen. The food is prepared with love and tastes just like home. Cant wait to come back to town and mow down another delicious meal.

Amazing

great food, friendly service, awesome catering. love this place.

Authentic food cooked with love

Best Jamaican food I ever had!!! Everthing is made from scratch. They even tasted everthing before serving the food so they know that the flavors were balanced. 10 out of 10. My new fav in Sarnia. Highly recommend

The best roti I have ever had

Totally amazing food and service, you wont be disappointed at all. Everything made fresh in house!

Amazing and friendly staff. The Jamaican patties are phenomenal and the potato soup is silky, spicy and superb.

Overpriced and dull tasting. 8 dollars for a patty and pop that I threw out halfway, never going back.

Really nice people that make really yummy food. Food made to order and seasoned to perfection!. Nothing sitting in steam tables at Dollys folks. If you want great food and great service...stop reading and give them a try.

Best food around. Try the patties.

Great food, great people. Dolly makes the best soups. Ox tail so good. Favourite place treat myself.

Great jerk place in Sarnia.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND. New to Sarnia , and so happy I found this place to enjoy! The food is made to order, all from scratch, including the Jamaican patties they are unreal- so delicious! Friendly upbeat staff. Take out restaurant; there is a picnic table outside and a single chair inside for waiting.

Food was excellent!!!Service was great,highly recommended

Great food at a low price!

Today was my first time visiting Dollys Jerk Joint. The food was absolutely amazing and its so nice to see that the owner loves what she does.

I could talk about how good the Chicken is, which is true. Or I could talk about how amazing the Jamaican Patties are, which is also true. But I want to talk about the thing I consistently get that blows me away. Dollys soup. Pumpkin, corn, seafood, chicken vegetable and all the others Ive had all give Soups Up a run for their money. I make it a point to eat her regularly, and so should you.

Amazing food for such a little place, she kills it every time.

Tasty.

Best doubles.hands down .. I even bought girl on today that i didnt even know , they are that good..

Really fùç ing good.

Authentic and delicious jamaican food.

It is a warm, welcoming environment with authentic and hearty delicious foods. As an added perk you get to watch Dolly cook as everything is mostly made to order. Well worth it! Would recommend the roti and patties.

Delicious! Best rotis and patties I ever had! It s all really good. Friendly service. Call ahead to pick up, is the best option imo

The curry chicken roti was phenomenal! As soon as you open the door, youre practically standing in the kitchen; its an interesting sight indeed. Everything is freshly prepared right in front of you and you can see the entire process from start to finish. The joint is barely bigger than a food truck, so there isnt any indoor seating. Although, there is a single picnic table next to the front sidewalk. Youll quickly forget about the lack of a dining space once you taste the food.

Excellent food

Fresh amazing food

Absolutely blown away. The environment is so welcoming, fun and warm, and the food is the same! Daily specials are always there to change things up. Everything I have tried is a 10/10, just amazing. I don t know what else to say, but wow.

Best Jamaican food in Sarnia
