Went there this morning Nov 23rd. Was really expecting a lot because of the 4.2 rating. Sorely disappointed! Bought doubles, aloo pie and sahena. Bara for the doubles was too thick, channa was dry and some of the channa was not boiled properly and of course, bland. The same for the aloo pie and sahena. Both were bland and tasteless. The pone was the best thing they had there. Not sure how they got a 4.2 rating, probably friends and family or from people who don’t really know good doubles.

I will drive out of my way for doubles from this place...today, that was a mistake. While the barra was thick and tight, the channa was crunchy and I'm still looking for the flavour...very disappointed, especially after I boosted to the nurses that this is the best doubles in the area☹️☹️☹️ Maybe it was an off day, but for the price, I expect better.

If you want to try the best doubles in town then this is THE place to find them. They are so flavourful and you can request spice based on your tolerance. Yes, the place can use some renovations but they compensate for the lack of appeal with their delicious food. While you’re at it you should try out their Sahina as well. I call this place a hidden gem, they never disappoint!! 🙌🏽

Great customer service and very clean restaurant. Takeout only. The doubles were good and the pholouri was ok. They give mango chutney with it, which I honestly didn't enjoy. Which they had the tamarind chutney. Nonetheless, I will be going back to try the duck curry. Very good halal restaurant. Fast good, cheap food.

I’ve had my fair share of Doubles in Trinidad 🇹🇹 but ACR has one of the best trini inventions of all time the Sahina Doubles is out of this world! Get both and try their super sweet Jalebi, taste like i am in Delhi 🇮🇳 fantastic spot!

I've been coming here since the early 2000s and I have to say the doubles and saheena roll for me are top tier quality and flavor. I've been to many spots for doubles to me this is my favorite. I can't handle too much spices anymore so I have to order with slight pepper now. Their peanut punch is amazing too. I would highly recommend this place to others! The staff are very pleasant and kind.

The REAL REAL AUTHENTIC TASTING FOOD. Doubles are good, (not the best) but definitely good. Taste like homemade cooking. The people working here are pleasant and kind. If ever in the area, try them out. Can’t go wrong:)

These are the best Doubles in Toronto hands down and I’ve been to over a dozen others. Can’t beat the price at $3 per double. The pepper hot sauce here is not as sour as the other places. The chickpeas are much softer. It’s not super messy and hard to eat as some other places. The place itself is super unassuming. It’s a true “hole in the wall” golden gem. Grab and go or eat at the counter there. The Aloo Pies are delicious too. They’re basically like a double but in fried bread and have potatoes as well. Also try the Pholouri (fried dough balls) with the chutney sauce. Super tasty food and extremely light on the pocket!

Best place in scarborough, hasnt failed me in the 20 years Ive been going there!

November 30, 2024

I was reffed to this place as the best doubles spot in scarborough. I went out of my way to try it. When I got there a younger guy with facial hair took my order. He wasnt particularly welcoming to me. Im from the Caribbean. I did mention that it was my first time. When I got home after taking a few bites of the chicken roti my stomach started to turn. For the past 4 days I have had severe food poisoning. Diarrhea 24/7 I was hospitalized for it. At the moment I am waiting for my results to see if I ate any parasites. I will never go back to this place again! For a roti shop located in the heart of scarborough I had higher expectations.

Been going here since the early 90s. Great place for some traditional foods.

October 21, 2024

Food is okay, also the owners never had a bad occurrence with them. It s just the guy that works the cash register younger man with a beard has a terrible attitude problem and is rude to everyone for no reason. The owners should honestly do something about it because there are multiple reviews on his rudeness, un professionalism, and terrible customer service. The food honestly tastes great when fresh I have been coming to this spot ever since I was a child and the lady and the owner have always been nice and pleasant no problem with them. It s just the son In law that kind of ruins the atmosphere with his constant attitude and terrible customer service.

I visited this place recently. First of all, the workers or whoever are so unfriendly, not a hello or hi when I entered. This place looks so run down, I almost walked out when I saw it. The food is AWFUL, nothing tasted good for me. I got some Bara, they loaded it up with so much dam pepper, suppose I was allergic to pepper. Well, what a waste of money. NASTY FOOD!! NEVER AGAIN!!

this is my favourite doubles spot in the city.

July 21, 2024

Ive been going here for over 30 years and I have never been impressed by this place. I started in high school because Im from trinidad and want a taste of home but this is far from home , besides it not being authentic and tasting like real trini style food , their attitude there is very cold and unpleasant they dont actually care about the customer, I heard the son in-law who is definitely not trinidadian arguing with a customer, when the customer asked for slight pepper and saying that the last time the slight pepper was a but hot he started to argue back with the customer saying next time he should ask for no pepper instead , when the customer said there a difference between no pepper, mild pepper and heavy pepper the cashier started to argue and raise is voice , its not the first time Ive noticed the scetchiness there and bad customer service , and like I said Ive been going there for over 30 years and havent said anything, I actually drive all the way to drupaties if I could , or get food from the Guyanese at Caribbean wave instead to wasting my time and being disappointed at acr and having to witness the disrespect, they dont even give back to there trinidad coustomers , they basically capatalise on the food and culture with out giving back and being authentic all because a man from trinidad is technically the owner , and they are filthy rich and worst even change the ripped up dirty 40 year old posters of trinidad or wont even clean or paint the place and make it nicer for the customers. I went for over 30 years without saying anything, but now I have to if I could give there rating a 0, I would , but I really cant support them anymore and I think its right if I let other people know , and Im sure not the only person , please support real authentic loving cultural trinidad establishments not culture vulture places like this with the worst customer service in Scarborough.

When entering this place its like from the 80s. They take your order and dont give you a order number. Very disorganized. Doubles and boneless chicken roti wasnt good. The older lady at the cash needs to work on her customer service skills. They charge fifty cents for a small container of pepper sauce and they dont even put enough on the food. I went this one time and wont go back. Much better places like Lenas, drupatis or Monas. If I could give a zero star rating I would.

A long time customer here ... decades! I go for the doubles mostly but the baiganie, alloo pie are all good. My family likes the roti and kurma, Sometimes (rarely) a slip of the hand re baking soda in the channa which impacts the flavor, but this is one in a hundred. Small place, so go prepared for a lineup, esp on the weekend. Takeout only. Wheelchair accessibility: No wheelchair access

May 21, 2024

I just sent my stepdaughter here to pick up some doubles as I remember this place had really good doubles. When she brought it home I was very disappointed and if they were closer to me I would have brought the food back. The doubles were disgusting and there was nothing on it except the channa which tasted like nothing and the Bara wasnt even soft. I told her to get curry beef and rice bit they said the rice would take 30 minutes! I got the curry beef with roti instead. When I opened the package there was a huge roti, a table spoon of beef in one corner and channa in the next corner. I didnt pay over $20 to get channa and roti with a pinch of beef on the side. Is there new owners or something?

Doubles? Great. Saheena? Great Customer service? Could really use some work. I was looking forward to trying ACR s food after seeing Toronto Chef Devan s review online. I came from the other side of the GTA to try it out. Google said their store closed at 7:30. I called ahead to place my order at 5:35. They initially took my order and informed me they were about to close. I told them I d be there in 15 mins. They said ok. Then about 10 mins later I got a call from ACR telling me they were closing and asking if I was still coming. I said yes, that I was 5 mins away and I mentioned that Google said they closed at 7:30pm. Then, they just hung up on me. I did in the end, get my food but the experience was very off putting - like they didn t want me to come.

Hubby went In to pick up some doubles. He had a craving. He said the place was very old but clean enough. Customer service was ok as well. I was skeptical because of the reviews. I really like doubles and I didn t want this to ruin it for me. So we started by getting just 2 and tasted those. If it was good, then we would get more. It wasn t bad! Not oily! Tasted ok and it had enough channa filling. Definitely their hot sauce is what makes it better! But we found them to be a little on the small side compared to some of the other restaurants. We were hungry and it was good enough to get more. Is it my go-to place in Scarborough to get doubles? Probably not. But if I m in the area, I would have it again.

Local Guide
March 21, 2024

Worst service. No manners or sense of communication. I spoke with a man to ask about the doubles to ensure there were no allergies (no meat or dairy) and continued to ask about what fillings they use to which I did not receive a clear response. I asked again and the man got short with me and hung up. I called back thinking it was a mistake. I asked again and again the man got short, asking how many I want to order, and what time. I specified that I would be 10 minutes before closing and to which he replied, no thanks, were closing now 45 minutes before closing time. Glad I did not give these people my money.

Best Saheena in Scarborough

February 21, 2024

Food used to taste good back 30 years ago. Went back this weekend food is terrible, taste like they use old oil. Pholorie and chutney taste and smell nasty did not even try it just dump it in the garbage. Their food it very stale karma taste really old. Hubby got sick from eating the curry. Waste of money and an embarrassment to Trinidad food .As for the place over 30 years and they never even update the restaurant. It looks and smell even more dingy and musty...Sorry to say customers but Trinidadian food taste a hell of a lot better than that. This place dont even worth 1 star.

I cant understand some of the negative reviews on here - but I can only speak for myself when I say that the times Ive been in for lunch, I was greeted with a smile from start to finish. The doubles hands down are absolute killer! You cant go wrong at all for 3 bux, Im serious! The chicken roti was decent - Took me a several bites to get through the actual roti to the meat itself - I will admit that the pepper sauce needs to be more hotter and spicier for that type of dish and type place that is it coming from, however it was flavorful. Have I had better elsewhere - sure / would I get it again there - maybe not. But I am enthusiastic to try a lot more on the menu no doubt. This is an old school family owned and operated west Indian roti joint - a hidden gem in an old round strip plaza, hidden close to deepest darkest Scarborough. Very easy to pass this place if your not looking. So why not stop in for some doubles and a Solo pop / they also carry the Peardrax drink (very recommended and hard to find!)

We bought doubles, aloo pies, baiganee and saheinas here. Worst food ever!!! We have eaten at a lot of Trinidadian restaurants in GTA and this is by far the worst excuse for Trini food. Saheina was hard and soaked in oil and tasteless. The baigan in the baiganee was not even cooked. The dough was thick and hard. The hot sauces lacked flavour. The rest of the food was just as bad. We threw out $30 plus spent on this. These people need to close down this place. No shame whatsoever to sell this garbage and present it as Trini food. Hard pass!!

Shady hole in the wall? Sure. Great doubles? Definitely.

Awful service! All the staff are extremely rude. They treat you like s*** as a customer as if they are doing customers a favor by serving us. Cant ask any questions otherwise they get upset. Their food is not that great either. Very oily doubles and small for that price. Their meat curries are mostly potatoes and has a bitter after taste. Their saheenas are dripping oil....gross. Cant emphasize enough what awful service they have. Very very slow serving customers. Sometimes I end up waiting for 25 mins for just doubles and saheenas. Many times they have closed their store before closing hours and doesnt update it on Google. Several times, I looked up their opening hrs on Google and drive through traffic to get to them only to find out theyre closed. Last time supporting this business! Not worth my time or money! Better options elsewhere customers!

Read their google reviews and wanted to try out their food. Purchased 1 shrimp roti, and 1 goat roti. Also purchased 2 saheena, and 2 doubles. As stated in other google reviews, their food is delicious, and well prepared. I asked for xtra spicy in all ordered items. Now that is where i find their pepper sauce is quite good. It was just enough heat but it did not overcome the taste of the spices and ingredients. They are open on the weekend. I plan to add this restaurant to my goto list.

Ive been going here since I was a child! My favourite doubles and aloo pie than any other place Ive tried. However, a couple times Ive received one less pholourie and the doubles dough wasnt fresh.

Best Doubles in the GTA. Was given the wrong order last time I was there. Very disappointed since the food is so good. Still ate what I was given though. :)

The food here is delicious! Ordered a chana and a chicken roti and some doubles. The servings are generous. Will definitely be back for more.

THE WORST customer experience. We called at 3:30pm to order. We were pressured to come before 4:30pm because they close even though their website says 5pm. I confronted them on the phone to which they replied they close earlier (every single tone was rude that they spoke to us in). They called us at 3:58 we were 4 min away asking us if we were coming. I got on the phone AGAIN and met him with the same tone. Super rude we will NEVER order from here again. Change your attitude when you work in customer service regardless if you re the owner or not. I normally don t make reviews but this had my blood boiling.

This place has been around for many years but the food is just average. If you can make it out to the west end, Indar s has far better doubles and does not charge for every little condiment. Also, they do not drown the doubles in pepper especially when someone requests for it not to be spicy. My family and I can handle spicy foods but this was not enjoyable. The customer service is some of the worst that I have come across. Mind you, I was not expecting much given the reviews online and the fact that this place is a hole in the wall and yet I was still disappointed. I spent $70 but the employee working at the front treated me like I was an inconvenience and did not respond to any of my questions. Also, this place only takes debit or cash.

Yes ppl arent happy about service but this IS a smaller take-out shop and they make it relatively fresh. Down in the islands, youd be served about the same time. And remember you dont see the phone orders on the back end that theyre trying to complete. Also just cuz youre not happy with service doesnt give you the right to be rude to someone. Ive never had issues with service other than me needing to rush because Im the one thats late. Cant beat the authentic Trini flavours tho. They havent changed their flour like Roti Hut. This reminds me of back home. Except for no spice. They make it for the North American tongue. Ask for extra spicy. Pholourie dip/chutney changes on who makes it. Not as good as it used to be years ago. Doubles were never my thing so the greasy nature of it doesnt appeal to me.$3 for one also not worth it to me now. Other items better like the roti Works well to reheat if needed (dont microwave, warm in real oven better). And while not accepting credit cards is odd nowadays, its understandable as then they dont have to pay merchant fees. Cost of food already going up so any increase is going to go down to the customers. Parking is in the back/side of building, or just use the Freshco parking lot. Heaven forbid you actually have to walk to the store. Keep your expectations realistic for a shop of this nature.

Food is good. Customer service is not th greatest nor the friendliest. Also, the actual price charged does not add up to whats on the board after you factor in taxes. I can only think that they charge extra for spice but why? Its not like doubles or saheena should be bought without spice in it. Very sneaky.

This ain t the spot for roti they don t wrap it good the curry ain t cook down it s water down and run belly the best spot for roti that better most roti is koris roti !!!! In Oakville ! Real Trini base

Terrible customer service. Closed an hour before closing but left the sign on open. Walked in and asked if they were still open as the door was open and the sign was on but lights off (happy to leave if they were not or wanted to get out early), asked twice and the only response back from grandma was what do you want. K. Then they said no debit only cash, despite there being a debit machine on the counter. K. Fished out change from the car and got my food but regretted not just driving away. No thank you, no answer or acknowledgement from the other side of the counter. Last I checked it was your customers that keep you in business, very odd choice to treat them as poorly as you can. If they didnt want to serve me and close early all they had to do was answer my question, thats it, and they couldnt even do that. Been going here over 15 years and never going back and Id recommend you never step foot in this place, better service and food elsewhere.

Going this place today& was quite amazed and amused. Amazing that they serve Trinidad style doubles and ask different sorts of Roti. No jerk style food contaminating this establishment. Amusing that they spelled Roti wrong twice Rotti but got it correct everywhere else on the menu. The doubles were first class old style Marabella doubles, not the hard skin bake style imitations that all the other west Indian Roti shops try to pass off as doubles.... The rest of the food looked like it was fresh from Trinidad. They even had solo drinks!!! The only downside, they have no parking so you park in the large lot just to the west and run across the side street to get to the store....

I had never heard about a doubles in my life. One of my friend suggested me to try and i have to say that i am now addicted to it. I am indian and doubles taste very similar to our traditional dish. This restaurant absolutely deserves 5 stars for their taste and reasonable pricing. I live a little far otherwise i would have doubles every second day!! Love it
