Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine in Toronto

Food is very delicious

The food was good, I would have enjoyed coconut in the rice and peas, and a spicy jerk sauce, otherwise, the service was great, the atmosphere captured the essence of the Caribbean. The cleanliness of the washroom needs improvement.

I went there for a birthday party the food was horrible the service was okay I paid $65 for a meal that I didnt eat the jerk chicken has no taste the rice had no taste it was not eatable I sent it back to the shelf and I know the food was not done properly the chicken wasnt cooked and the food was cold

This place is a fraud why are potatoes in ter ackee and saltfish why is everything mush all for $30

We used Keiths catering service for an event for 80 people. We ordered jerk chicken, veggie channa, rice and peas, coleslaw, sweet potato pudding and jamaican rum cake. The food was so delicious and the portions were very generous. Everyone was very pleased with the catered dinner and raved about the food!

Came for a birthday party with a preset menu of 3 items. I arrived just after 4 and in 2 hrs we only had soup and ackee n saltfish. When the main did come out (around 7) it was served all scattered. So basically my fiancée ate her whole meal before I was served mine so we watched each other eat. The rice was not fresh, there was no jerk to the chicken. I did enjoy the goat, the oxtail and the ackee n saltfish but the service was extremely slow and was not organized. Maybe it s because we were a big group but nonetheless, not a good first impression. We left around 7:45 and that was a long time for a 3 item preset menu. I will not return.

Waitress was really helpful and the food was good too

Great food! 6 of us and everyone loved it .

great

I had my celebrated my birthday at Scotthill with family and friends, let me just say I will always remember it. Everything was amazing the food the service, everything was enjoyed by all. Thank you Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine for making my special day even more special. Cant wait to visit you again.

Went here for my Mom s birthday. Food was amazing and authentic. Portions were generous; highly recommend the boneless jerk chicken main as well as the ackee and saltfish appetizer. Service was also very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend, especially if you like Jamaican food; we will be back!

Stopped by for lunch here. Food was phenomenal. Presentation was great. Everything tasted fresh and hot. First time I had soup here before the meal and it was fantastic. Will come again.

They catered for my 21st birthday and the food was great. The jerk chicken was especially amazing. Will definitely use their catering services for future events!

My buddy and I had the urge for Jamaican food and I told him that there was this place on upper Avenue Road Scott Hill s that was authentic and outstanding. He doubted my word but he true Jamaican food devotee loved it and pronounced it the real thing. We loved the tasty oxtail with a thick rich gravy as well as ackee and salt fish. There was a soup starter and a callaloo dip. Christina the server was very cheery and helpful and introduced us to the father and son, real Rasta chefs Mikey and Andre. Give it a try, take out or dine in.

good vibes great place!

Andre was my chef and my server today and he was exceptional. The food was amazing and so filling. The atmosphere was amazing also.

I saw that their menu showed 1.75 for gingerale. I checked only to see the waitress charged my card 4.50 which was basically her stealing my money. I think she thought that because we were all in a festive mood, we wouldnt notice. To think they wanted a tip on top of that. Good thing I didnt acquiesce to such.

We have satisfying meal every single time and it s very delicious and authentic, the hot sauce in the side takes it to a different level , thank you for bottling the sauce I can take home and eat it with my other meals , thank you , thank you

Excellent food and service. This place is very welcoming! We were also served a vegetable soup/stew while we were waiting that was amazing.

Food took a while, but was well worth the wait!.

We loved the great customer service, the fact that the music was not too loud. I loved that the jerk chicken was very tender. The rice and peas was good. Their coconut drops are the real deal. Their black cake wasnt hitting it for me, it could have been more flavourful. Keep up the great service.

The Jerk Chicken Dinner was immaculate. Chefs kiss. I love the charred taste on the chicken, well seasoned. It tasted just like back home.

Ordered the Jerk Chicken just now for lunch. Food is AMAZING.

Experience was great for Mothers Day, Joy and Christina were great service. Lovely people.

An amazing authentic Caribbean Restaurant with great service, and great food. The pricing is also affordable and the staff make you feel very welcome and at home. Great work! Parking: Be prepared to street park!

The best place I found for trying Caribean Cusine. Wonderful foods and welcoming services.

Vegetarian options: The had a wide variety of vegan option for kids and adults. The ackee and veggies tasted amazing and there rice and peas was some of the best I ve had at a restaurant. Dietary restrictions: They had a lot of options including vegan and kid meals. Kid-friendliness: They had a lot of kid friendly items on there menu including kid vegan meals. The portions where big. I ordered chicken nuggets and fries. Ackee and rice and peas and a patty for my 3 children. The chicken nuggets were made from scratch. My children loved all the food.

Excellent food and service. Great prices and flavors. I highly recommend

Very welcoming with fast service. Good portion sizes. Cristina was a pleasure.

I am real Jamaican, and let me tell u it s hard to find good authentic Jamaican tasting food that s not soo salty or oily and not mass produced and tasting nasty! This place food takes like 30 mins for u to be served but the food is fresh and delicious! U even get a complimentary soup while u wait and soup is top tier comparable to Bulbie soup in jamaica the owner serves u his self with a pleasant smile . The music is relaxing and the place is immaculately clean like Jesus police record! They even have authentic Jamaican drinks like Redstripe beer and ting and ginger beer . After the food was done me and my wife shared a piece of potato pudding and it taste better than the pudding man pudding that sells out by st.Ann near island dairy this man s restaurant is a Gem and a national treasure I had to leave a big tip! And I will be back several times . The man even have homemade sorrel taste just like how mi granny use to make it! Wah me Seh The Best Jamaican food in Toronto and I have been around to the so call niceies and Stacey s and all of them garbage compared to this man s food!

Ive been craving some good Caribbean food and am so happy I found this place! The dumplings are fluffy and tasty without being too greasy and theyre big too. I was delighted to find that Scotthill has the option to have fries with jerk chicken, not just rice. The jerk chicken and fries with oxtail gravy is phenomenal. I never would have thought to combine those together but...YES! Ill be telling my family friends about this place, I love it.

1# pls pls pls go here. Your missing out if you dont!

Listennnnn, when I tell you this is the spot believe it. I felt ike I was in Jamaica. I felt at home. The music is great. The customer service is great, the vibes is great, if you want the real taste of Jamaican Food come and try it, you wont be disappointed because the food is perfect.

Omg! This was my first time here & This restaurant the food the service was amazing!! I will be back & I recommend anyone looking for a good Caribbean Cuisine to come right here! Oh & there rum punch, I had more than one lol

Our experience at Scotthill was 5 stars across the board. The restaurant s ambiance was warm and the decor was pleasant and homely. Our server was welcoming and patient; her hospitality exceeded our expectations. The food was authentic, prepared with love, the proportions were more than satisfactory, and the chef introduced himself to our party at the conclusion of our meal. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking to enjoy a night out of music, vibes, and good eats. Well done Scotthill!

Our corporate office worked closely with Keith from Scotthill Cuisine and I cant begin to express how great of an experience it was! Our order was quite some effort - enough catering to feed 100+ guests. He was patient, worked so hard to meet our needs and delivered quickly while keeping us updated on his arrival status. Now the food - it was BEYOND amazing! Everyone absolutely loved it. The jerk chicken, oxtail, curry goat, rice n peas, coleslaw, plantains and more. Thank you Scotthill Cuisine for the great experience, well definitely be ordering again in the future!

Ordered food for party and it was a huge hit! Cannot wait to go back and try more of their dishes.

I had high expectations going to this place from the reviews and local neighbours, and it did not disappoint! The food was excellent and the dishes were good portions, we had oxtail and curry goat and the must-have jerk chicken. The service was great, she was friendly and patient when we were taking too long to decide, and she had good recommendations. The restaurant is clean and has a good vibe. I ll definitely go back!!!!

Thanks kristina for this Its really amazing Food

Everything about this place was rich in culture, rich in flavour, and rich in love! Their food is soooo good! They even have a vegan menu! Thank You Keith for such a wonderful experience

Amazing food and attentive and great service! Must visit again and again! Vegetarian options: Channa, rice And peas Kid-friendliness: Lots of booths

The oxtail was full of just gravy and no meat absolutely the worst felt like I was eating dog food 27 dollars for that is unacceptable.

I ordered fried chicken and rice and peas and I thought the food was good. My guest believed that the chicken was a tad salty but she does not typically eat salt. The rice and peas tasted good also. Service was very good. The owner was very kind and warm. I would visit this place again.

The best Jamaican food I have tried living 30 years in the city. The jerk chicken was done to perfection. You have to try this place once and taste to believe for yourself.

Always get take out from here and this was my first time dining in. Its a warm space to sit and eat and enjoy the fun music they have going on. Food is ALWAYS FRESH AND DELICIOUS Im assuming its a small family owned restaurant and its a MUST for good jerk. Prices are very reasonable as well. We had a pattie for appetizer, and 2 meals, bill was close to $70 after tax.

This restaurant is thee best, most satisfying, most delicious soul food I have had since coming Canada, the rice was AMAZING and the fact that they smothered it with oxtail gravy gave my tastebuds an addictive craving, the chicken was fresh and cooked and seasoned to perfection , the plantain was just right and the coleslaw OMG!!!!! I think am hooked but after drinking that Jamaican Ginger Beer soda I am convinced my soulmate is a Jamaican Not only does this restaurant deserve a five star rating and review I had to stand up to write this review ensuring I give them a standing ovation Whomever that chef is I just want you to know I loved you at first taste 10/10 I definitely recommend this restaurant for all my Caribbean food lovers Excellent

Tried jerk chicken for the first time here.Portions were big and food was juicy compared with many other placed.Solid four stars.

If you are looking for *authenticity*, this is the place to be. A little piece of Jamaica in every bite. The serivce and food is worth the price. Each meal is served with soup, plantain, your choice of side and coleslaw. You can get 2 meats if you cannot decide. All for under $35!!!!!!!! Things to try: *Oxtail *Goat *Brown stew Fish *BBQ fried Chicken Thank you to Keith and the team!

The food here is amazing It become my favourite delicious, the veggie soup too. The fish fritters I can t stop dreaming about it. Lol I just loved I think is better if you eat there because the food is super fresh. The waiting time is bit longer but cmon the food worth it. Much better than take out ofrece Uber eats . Coming back forever that s for sure

Absolutely worth checking out!

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. It is my husbands birthday and he is a diehard Jamaican so I didnt tell him where I was taking him for dinner. The venue is cute and nice. The food AMAZING . The chef Mr. A, and our hostess made our experience fabulous. From the vegetarian soup, which surprised me, to the jerk chicken dinner for my husband was amazing. He finished everything. My oxtail dinner was so nice that I had to take some home. The rum cake slice for my husband was so soft and nice. We had a wonderful experience and will endorse this venue to the world as a excellent place to dine. Money and time well spent. Looking forward to go back again.

I had dined here with a friend over 2 months ago and there was a young chef he was not only the chef but also the host, server and cashier. I couldn t believe how professional he is and to work with such patience and kindness like he really loves his job. Not only was his service exceptional but I had the best escovitch snapper in my life better than Jamaica. I have to return back but will be calling in to find out if the chef for the day is Andre I recommend you all do the same, his food is absolutely amazing.

Amazing BBQ jerk and Patties. Really delicious and consistent each time with generous portions. Will definitely keep coming back!

Fresh, made from scratch with authentic flavours. Kind and welcoming staff and service. Relaxed atmosphere, what s there not to like! Vegetarian options: Lots of delicious options for vegetarians and vegans

Amazing food and wide selection of drinks and juices. Low key ambiance. You definitely go here for the food.

Vegetable soup was great and bbq jerk chicken is amazing!

I was born and grew up in Trinidad and Tobago. One of the things I absolutely love about the Caribbean is its FOOD! The warmth and diversity of the people transcended to the rich flavours and food became a cultural experience- a boilng pot of African, Indian, Portuguese, Spanish, Indigenous, English and French influence. Aside from Mr. Jerkss on Wellesley East Downtown or Leenas in Scarborough, its hard to find really good Caribbean food in Canada. I live close to this restaurant and honestly never noticed it when passing by. I was searching the internet for Caribbean food and this came up. We tried it and were so happy to find a taste of home. Its a well established, family owned and managed restaurant. There is ample accommodation for comfortable family dining- clean and well kept. The customer service is great, and the wait time short. The food is delicious and the variety on the menu is awesome. They play Caribbean music to make the experience complete and I saw a full offering of Caribbean rum and other alcoholic beverages. I highly recommend here

Do not be fooled by the size of this restaurant, you get the entire taste of Jamaica in every bite. Located on the outskirts of downtown Toronto, this hole-in-the-wall serves delectable Jamaican cuisine. The meats are well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. If you are a hearty eater, the portion sizes will satisfy your appetite. Try the Scottshill Special if you have the stomach for it; it will leave you popping at the seams. I highly recommend Scottshill to anyone seeking a taste of Jamaica while in Toronto.

Great food and great service! Loved the homemade beef patties.

This is NOT the first time Ive been to this restaurant! This was my 2nd visit for a similar gathering of professionals from acrosstheGTA. My NEW experience started when the lady sitting beside me ordered a glass of wine! When the glass of wine was brought to her, it was comparably different than the lady having a similar glass of wine across from her. A BIG difference! When the owner actually finally came over to have a chat with the customer, the indifference he showed for not making things right about the quantity was VERY disappointing. The dinner I ordered, which was oxtail and rice, it was supposed to come with soup; that never came. My meal was easily to put together, but the quantity and taste of oxtail left me with feeling empty... being that it was one of a few signature dishes the restaurant does daily!

Andre is an incredible chef. His flavours are out of this world! My favourite go to carribbean restaurant

Place was clean and spacious compared to most West Indian restaurants. I m not a fan of eating Jamaican food on the road but here, I have to acknowledge them.. fish was cook well flavoursome and fry dumplings tasted like what my grandma use to make from scratch not heavy like the pre packaged ones.. Food was amazing will definitely go back

What ever you do dont dine in, its a waste of time!

Tried to support this restaurant on Mothers Day, went with my family for an evening reservation. Waited for over an hr, was not given any water or was served anything to drink while waiting. It was 6 of us and a baby the waitress let us sit at a tiny table for 4 until our table was ready so 2 ppl had to stand. Our family eventually left after waiting for so long especially since the waitress never returned to offer us water or a drink menu. A family we met complained about not getting any water and was told its because they ran out of glasses. We ended up at the restaurant across the street, although we didnt have a reservation for that restaurant we were greeted with pleasant waitress who gave us water while we wait for an open table, had the best time there and the food was amazing, will definitely recommend that place and the salmon dinner, I think the name of the restaurant was Cheers.

Nice authentic Jamaican food. Great place to enjoy a dinner with family and friends

This place went stupid hard, would trade my first born son for their goat curry recipe. The complimentary soup to start made me feel things I never thought I would after my wife left me. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Jerk Pork was spectacular. Cole slaw was fresh and perfect balance with the spice - soup to start so good I could have had 3 bowls and called it dinner - Fritters hot and tasty, authentic all of it! Will recommend to all the people!

Jerk chicken and oxtail are amazing

My family and I were pleased to host our private event at Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine this Spring. Thank you to Keith, and the wonderful staff who were so warm, welcoming, and attentive. The restaurant was very clean, intimate, and inviting. The decor was simple but elegant. Good vibes as soon as we arrived. We enjoyed the food served as it was very fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The jerk chicken, ackee and saltfish, oxtail, and curry goat were beautifully plated and very delicious. The crispy fried chicken and french fries from the Kids menu were a hit with our younger guests who greatly enjoyed their fill. The signature punch was savoured by all - a flavourful blend of fruits with just the right amount of sweetness. Thank you for making our special occasion, spectacular! We look forward to dining with you again. God bless!

Authentic flavors.

The food was a bit spicy but good overall.

I went for lunch with my grandson and it was nice. Our server was training and was doing a great job. The food was good I had the fried bbq chicken which came with a small soup, rice and peas, plantains and coleslaw. The soup was delicious and the bbq fried chicken, the rice I wasnt crazy about. Overall it was a lovely experience.

First time but wont be the last. Great service, great flavors and decent pricing. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options with loads of flavour.

Food is expertly prepared! Experience and love of the craft. Great service. Had a nice lunch and will be back for date night! Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level access inside and patio.

Well prepared food. Not your average Caribbean restaurant. Top level chef. Food was so tasteful, the presentation was 5/5 and environment was calm and clean. I rate this 5 star

both Jerk and chicken rotti were too salty. will not recommend.

Ackee and salt fish too Oily. Why is there brocli in the callalo

The food at Scott s Hill was very salty. We received complimentary soup. I took two spoons and told the server it was too salty I can t eat that. As we continued to eat our meal I realized the curry goal was salty. Again I told the waiter and I did not finish eating it. The gravy for the oxtail was also salty. At first I thought it was me alone. Until everyone on the table started to complain the food is very salty. One person had his food returned and the chef cooked another one with no salt. The whole table spoke to the chef re the salty food. Even the child s chicken nuggets were salty. ( Imagine that) The owner stated the he knew the Chenna was salty but the other food usually does not taste salty. Instead of saying he was sorry. He second guessed us as though we were lying. Instead of him asking us how he can make things better.. The owner said he was going to give us a discount on our meals and didn t. I feel that he is a dishonest man. The restaurant was not that busy that he would forget and not tell the waiters. As the person who came to collect the money from us did not know that we were supposed to get a discount if our meals. I had received the ice cream free. I am glad I did not pay for it as it tasted freezer burned. I would not return to Scots Hill restaurant nor will I recommend this restaurant to anyone. Vegetarian options: Salty!!

Great place for date night. Saturday nights they have a live DJ and the atmosphere is really nice and intimate. The service is good and the food is well worth the price.

Highly recommend! Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine is one of my favourite restaurants in the city! I ve had them cater twice and both times have been blown away. The food is so spectacular, people were coming back for a third serving! The jerk-chicken is a must! The chef and owner, Keith, is amazing. Had such a great experience and received the best service. Many thanks to Keith and the Scotthill team! Will definitely be back with another order soon!

The food was immaculate! A friend and I stopped by after visiting Sunnybrook Hospital for a late lunch, and we ordered the jerk chicken meal that comes with rice and peas, coleslaw and fry plantain. My girlfriend ordered the fried chicken breast, rice and peas, coleslaw, and fry plantain. Everything was seasoned to perfection! Oh and we received complimentary okra soup. I will be coming back again!

Not sure if I got food that was old as I got it towards closing or what but what I got did not look like anything in the pictures from rest of reviews. The rice was almost black, oxtail tastes old and chewy I did get a second small container, so maybe that was their way of saying sorry with some extra food. Chicken roti was dry as a bone, and yet soaking wet at the bottom. Looked like they put in the sauce into the container and topped it with dry roti. Coleslaw looked sad and wilty.

Woww!!!!! Absolutely delicious and multiple award winning Oxtail!!!! Thank you for the blessings of you and your chefs!!!! My family and I are so grateful. We will definitely be return customers.

We definitely recommend this place, perfect to sit and enjoy a delicious Jamaican meal (we particularly were looking for a dine-in place, not just take-out) , also nice cocktails (so appreciated Thursday special prices) and very relaxing atmosphere, hostess Christine is friendly and attentive, could help us with every question we had. Coming back here for sure!

The oxtail was ridiculously good, falls off the bone and melts in your mouth

Visited this restaurant for the first and not the last time. Tried their vegetable soup and was in awe, their jerk chicken wings amazing, but the wow factor was their jerk chicken skewer. 12 out of 10

Celebrated a friend s birthday lunch. I had the oxtail plate very delicious, soup was omg I had my friend s bowl as well ( she is not into soup) The oxtail gravy was delicious as well sorry I don t take pictures Parking: Don t know took a taxi Wheelchair accessibility: I did not see a ramp we stepped up to get into restaurant

The most delicious jerk chicken and oxtail gravy. Have been numerous times and have never been disappointed. Friendly staff too!

Real Jamaican cuisine. Nice dine in for birthdays, dates, workshop, painting and work meetings. Bonus of complimentary soup when dining in! They take all payment types. Loved the diverse menu of authentic Jamaican food and the added extras like chicken wings,fries and other Canadian food for those picky eaters. All delicious So far I enjoyed everything I have tried The oxtail with rice and peas has thick gravy that s from scratch cooked to perfection. The curry goat wow just meats right in your mouth the gravy is not oil and water it s thick and nice. The jerk chicken tastes so good he also makes a jerk chicken soup as a nice added savoury flavour to the red peas soup. The fish is to die for. Omg! It s a must. The food is a fresh burst of Jamaican flavours hot to touch and not spicy unless you like it that way. They will recommend dishes that are not. Allergy friendly environment. Many options for vegan too. Outdoor patio too. The staff is very friendly, courteous, professional and poised. They pour your wine and have your water and wine glass filled while you eat. The place is clean and has a nice ambiance. Comfortable seats with nice wood tables. Live DJ on specific dates. A nice variety of alcohol and non alcohol beverages to choose from. Kid friendly place where the whole family can enjoy Vegetarian options: They have many dishes available and can substitute and suggest other things Huge variety available Dietary restrictions: Let the server know and they will accommodate Parking: Green P Parking right in front of the store. It s not expensive Side streets have free parking Kid-friendliness: Yes

Upscaled atmosphere for Caribbean dine in and take out, service was a bit too slow considering we were the only table in that night, but that s to be expected when West Indians right? lol. Definitely worth checking out, get the 2 meat combo platter !

I have been ordered the food several times The flavor is very good But today I ordered on Uber eats for oxtail meal and I payed 30 dollars for only 4 small pieces of meet Food : 1/5

Have had a lot of Jamaican food in my life but this place is next level. Hands down the best plate of Oxtail on Rice and Peas Ive ever had.

My aunt had chosen this establishment for our family dinner because of the delicious food and the excellent service and boy was she right! The special has a 2 meat option and it was the best oxtail and curry goat I ever had! The rice and peas was just made to perfection you can really taste the coconut milk and seasoned to perfection I had to order a second bowl. The sweet potato pudding dessert was absolutely delicious so moist and tasty! A must have to finish off the delicious meal, hats off to the chef! Our waitress was efficient, respectful and on point with everything I couldn t believe with a table of 8 she didnt need a pen and paper when we ordered drinks, apps and mains. She made us feel like valued customers at a fine dining establishment it was refreshing to be told it was a pleasure to serve us for the evening. I recommend this restaurant it is a must to visit!

Flavourful Caribbean food. Had the jerk chicken dinner, jerk pork appetizer and vegetable soup. It was all delicious and well presented. Nicely decorated, comfortable seating and friendly service. Worth a visit.

The food was great. The ambience fitting for our special occasion. The host chef waitress and owners were amazing. We received top notch service.

The soup here is amazing! The jerk is favorable!

Fantastic food and huge portions. I had the Oxtail with Rice & Peas. The gravy was outstanding and the rice and peas were equally delicious. Also had the patties which were spiced perfectly and light and crispy. Would recommend

I live near Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine and have passed this establishment many times over the years. I have not tried it before today as I thought the really authentic Caribbean cuisine was only to be found in Scarborough. I was wrong. On a whim, I went to Scotthill for lunch. It exceeded all expectations - I started with a hearty vegetable soup which I suspect is one of their specialties and could have stopped there. However, it was quickly followed by a chicken curry roti that was savoury and spicy (although I put extra hot sauce on it) and accompanied by coleslaw and fried plantains. That, and a ginger beer came to $20.00. A great deal. There are a lot of vegetarian options available and so my wife and I will be regulars.

We ate at ScottHill on the evening of February 5th to celebrate a birthday and Im glad we did. The food was authentic and delicious, the staff were super accommodating, and we had absolutely no complaints. Highly recommend!

Let me tell you something. This is the place. You go there and ask: Can I get the oxtail and bbq chicken? and then BAM! Youre whole day is better. The flavor is so rich that it feels like youre on a T.V. cooking show or something. I gotta say, this is the place you wanna try.

My food had hair in it. They did not replace it. Wont buy from here again.

Nice little spot. 6/10. Service 5/10 FOOD 1/10----ONLY GOOD THING WSS SOUP THEY GIVE BEFORE MEAL. BUT SPICY FOOD TOOK FOREVER. IT WAS COLD PLANTAIN WAS HARD.

Excellent food, presentation, and team. An amazing Jamaican restaurant you can sit in. Fresh and tasty. Had the jerk chicken dinner. Well cooked, as was the rice/peas, and coleslaw. Easily one of the best in GTA. Highly recommended.

Daily soup is fabulous and our family loves the fries with gravy ! Amazing! Excellent service and food top notch!

Lunch special for 10$ was pretty good , rice was kind of undercooked and plantain was also kind of hard . Otherwise good flavour and tasted fresh.

OMG Best Caribbean food ever. This is my favourite restaurant I love the service and the food is just amazing.

Really good jerk chicken, rice, slaw. Good portions.

Some of the best food Ive had the pleasure to eat. The staff is very hospitable making the dine in orders that much more enjoyable. You wont regret bringing your date here!

Amazing food! And super friendly staff. Love getting food from here. Always a treat.

Food was AMAZING! VERY TASTY with big portions. (we ordered a wide variety of items) family run and owned this restaurant was a pleasure to visit. Server was friendly and knowledgeable. Restaurant was clean and vibe was very positive. Ill definitely eat here again! Keep up the awesome work!!

Awesome food. Above and beyond customer service

Great ambience

Service is top shelf the food is even better. Keith is an excellent host. We will be back.

Amazing !! The real deal !!

The food we were served was ok but the food I ordered to bring home (Jerk Chicken meal) may have been a day or 2 old. My husband didnt even want to eat it. Just thought that the same quality would have been right through. I thought wrong. So I give my rating based on my disappointment on what I brought home. But while at the restaurant I did appreciate the slice of cake given to my friend for her birthday.

Excellent tasting jerk chicken and fixings. Have to try your curry next! Been three weeks and Im thinking about it...cheers

Great restaurant, great service and great food. Definitely going to revisit.

Love the atmosphere, great music. The employees are always friendly and professional. The food is great and the price is right. Good job

Absolutely love the food! I always get food catered from them for my events and never have been disappointed! Delicious food always!

Excellent

Last night was my first time dining at Scotthill and I can truly say I ll be back very soon! It was a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. The Akee and Saltfish with fried dumpling appetizer WAS FIRE! It was my first time trying this and WOW it s to die for! The service we received was very friendly, professional, and delightful Rachel is amazing!! They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. I can t wait to return and wouldn t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to dine out or for take-out!

Great food and service! Excellent selection of authentic Jamaican cuisine. My family and I will be returning!

I have a lot of high hopes for this place. I just want to start off by saying this place is great in terms of atmosphere, vibes and spirit. You can tell that it s a real authentic Jamaican restaurant from the moment you walk in. The front waitress was so polite and helpful and even though she was busy multitasking 100 different things she was very patient and friendly to everyone that came in. The way my tummy was rumbling from the smell of the food, I was so excited to try it. Seeing the plates of the other diners confirmed I was in the right spot. The portion sizes were huge and very reasonable pricing. Everything on the menu sounded so delicious and it was very hard to pick what to order, but I decided to play it cool and just get the bbq fried chicken. (strike one on my part). I should ve just stuck with the gut. The bbq sauce was like a really liquidized ketchup. It was so runny and bright red, that it soaked through the fried coating on the chicken. I wanted to like it so bad, but it was just not what I was used to. My friend got the skewers and the dumplings were so tuff and hard to choose. I m honestly thinking that this was just a one off and I can t wait to come back and try their dine in food instead of take out.

ScottHill is one of my favourite restaurants in all of the GTA, let alone my favourite spot for Caribbean food. Consistently delicious and authentic food with large portion sizes at a very reasonable price. Our favourites are the jerk chicken, ox tail, and curry goat.

Parking: Payment

Best jerk chicken in TO

Excellent food and service. Had the oxtail and jerk chicken combo. Mmmmm

Great oxtail. Service is extremely slow though.

I ordered from here in November. My roommate and I enjoyed the food as it was absolutely delicious. We had the jerk meal, stew beef and curry shrimp. I cant believe I had forgotten to leave a review. Ordering from here tonight and am sure it will be amazing. Update: ordered from this restaurant several times this year. Still the best tasting food my goodness. I have a new dietary requirement for a medical issue and they accomodated me. Now I send food from here to friends for them to try. One of my favorite restaurants for sure.

Great staff and food is great. Would recommend anyone to this restaurant. I love it

One of if not the best Caribbean restaurant in the city. The chef actually makes his good with love. A lil on the proxy side but worth every penny!! Vegetarian and vegan dishes as well. Small restaurant but beautiful food and welcoming atmosphere. I live a little far but Id keep going back whenever I can.

Ordered jerk chicken and plantain catering for my party and everyone was raving about it! So delicious and great portions too. Thank you!

Nice laid back Jamaican resto. Jerk chicken, Ox tail, and curry goat were delish. Food

I enjoyed the oxtail and rice and peas. The gravy, meat texture and taste were on point. It has the authentic Jamaican taste. The service was great as well. Looking forward to trying the other dishes on the menu, hopefully they are just as great.

This is the only place I will buy fish from!!! They make it fresh, I ve never had such a well cooked brown stew

Great restaurant. Excellent Jaimacan food. It can take a while for the food to come but relax with a drink and enjoy

Nice atmosphere and great food. The jerk chicken was pretty good. Will be back for sure!

Delicious, authentic Jamaican food and excellent service. Id certainly recommend it.

Food and customer service was good. My friend got the Oxtail and it was really amazing. I had jerk chicken and it was so good also.

Hands down, the best Jamaican restaurant in Toronto. Ive been to Jamaica twice and every time I miss Jamaican food I go here. Keith the owner is super friendly and Judith is an amazing chef.

The jerk pork dinner takeout was so dry overcooked inside and outside. Very disappointing after reading it was to melt in your mouth. They forgot a hot sauce as well. I wasted $20 bc I could not eat the jerk pork. I had to throw it out.

Wonderful experience. All food is freshly prepared and authentically Caribbean. Parking: Free parking on the side streets but you will have a 5+ minute walk for this option. Otherwise, there is paid parking on Avenue Rd. and the side streets nearest Avenue Rd.

Let me start off by saying I ve been an extremely loyal customer for about 5-6 years now. My mom and I love this place. I ve had the redfish, curry goat, and boneless jerk chicken and rotate between them whenever I go. Whenever we go in person, we get a cup of vegetable soup to begin and it s one of the heartiest, most flavourful soups I ve ever had. When there s been a period of time we haven t gone, my mom and I will reminisce over this soup. It s that good. The plates are perfectly portioned and every side adds to it. The coleslaw especially we re always obsessed with. We went most recently and both my mom and I got the boneless jerk chicken. Wow. Awesome, juicy, nicely sliced chicken, not too spicy. Some of the best chicken I ve ever had. My one preference would be that I like a little more of a thick cut plantain. I enjoy plantains in any capacity but find them tastier when they re a bit thicker and still have a nice sweet chew to them. That s just my preference though. Certainly check out this place if you haven t already and support their business. In the past, the owners came out to check up on us and make sure we re enjoying our meals and he s a really kind man.

In the Top 5 of best Jamaican restaurants in the city. As someone that grew up with the luxury of having a large Jamaican family, I have a certain standard when it comes to our cuisine. After moving from NYC to Toronto, I was shocked at the amount of mediocre Caribbean chains. Let me tell you, Scothill always brings their A game. The food here really is prepared authentically, fairly priced, generous servings and always, always fresh. My only complaint is that you guys hardly ever seem to be available on UberEats Nevertheless, if youre looking for bomb Jamaican food - Scotthill is it!!

Bought it for my customers, 3 families, as my Christmas gift to them. They raved about it, that it was good.

Delicious food, friendly staff, great atmosphere! Highly recommend!

You shouldnt wait too long your customers!!!

Not sure what s going on with this place but it used to be way more consistently good. I always order the same thing (the oxtail) and when they re on point, it s actually delicious. But the last few times, the food tastes old, stale and salty because it reduced too much from sitting around too long. Really don t want to take anymore chances so I won t be returning. I really want to support my local eats but I also don t want to drive for 20 mins to get food I can t eat.

Awesome place and awesome food!

Jerk shrimp roti was the spiciest food I have ever enjoyed and delicious!

Amazing BBQ Jerk. I will return and try other dishes.

Too much bbq sauce on jerk bbq chicken and on rice. I ordered extra oxtail gravy and yet my food was drowned already with gravy. Coleslaw had too much vinegar. Utensils were not given and then when given they were not individually wrapped. Considering were in a pandemic youd figure this would be considered. Food really had no flavor. Truly disappointed. Waited just about a year and was not impressed at all.

Delicious, mouth watering food and great customer service. Certainly going back soon.

Ordered through doordash and I was nervous about the curry goat because Ive been disappointed in the past from other restaurants but they got it right! Seasoned nicely and the portions are on point! You do get your moneys worth.

Food is good. No complaints

Ordered the oxtail meal, huge portions and so delicious. Would definitely return to try other dishes.

Delicious!!

I was excited to discover this place as it is in our neighbourhood and my husband and I love Jamaican food. Last night we ordered for the first time - oxtail dinner, jerk pork dinner and got a complimentary soup. Generous portions and everything was tasty except for the pork was too lean and very dry. Im not sure if it was just that night that the pork was that way. I would really like to try this place again.

Amazing food and always the best customer experience! The boneless jerk chicken dinner is my go to, highly recommend

Professional and friendly service

I m picky when it comes to my favourite dishes and oxtail is on the top of my list. If you love oxtail... GO HERE! They do it right. It s pricy at $22 and honestly that might turn some people off, BUT the portion is very large. And they give a decent amount of meat too. And the flavour is just mouth watering. My mother who introduced me to this restaurant has also highly recommended the ackee and saltfish roti. I trust her pallet and will be ordering that next time. Dine in experience was memorable with good service and atmosphere. Take out is packaged well and big portions. Highly recommend.

I recently bought the red snapper meal for pickup when I got home and opened the bag the fish was so stink, like it was in and out of the fridge/freezer. For the price of the meal- $30, you can do way better. If the food is close to expire please throw away.

The waitress was rude and the restaurant was empty. Go figure.

Dinner was great

This is the first time leaving a 4star review for a restaurant. I ordered the oxtail, jerk chicken, and the rum cake. To start off with the oxtail, quantity was by far the best out of all the Caribbean restaurants I have been to. Only downside was it was a little bit on the salty side and there wasnt too much meat on the bone. That being said, taste was not disappointing. Jerk chicken was a bit let down. It was dry and had a funky chicken taste. Usually this taste is significant when the chicken is old or had been frozen and thawed. My real compliment goes to the cake. Although it was pricey for a small slice, it was all worth it. The cake was very moist, not too sweet, and you can definitely taste the rum in the cake. I am excited to try other foods on their menu.

Absolutely breathless! Never had jerk chicken this tasty. Chicken was tender and very well flavoured. Will keep coming back and will highly recommend.

Amazing food, excellent staff. My husband and I love going here to eat. The food is always fresh, we also enjoy the complementary soup, the atmosphere is calming and clean. The music is good as well.

Thank you, best family, best food, I have done all three, eaten in, asked for takeout and used a delivery service. I definitely recommend eating in but all are great! Very good food! Thanks again!

The best customer service and Jamaican food I ever had. I will definitely come back

Great food and service. We loved it.

AMAZING FOOD! Great service

Amazing food and Customer service. I came here with my family and we all really enjoyed this restaurant !

Really delicious Caribbean food. Have been trying a few different locations across Toronto and this and chubbies is by far the best in Toronto. Amazing quality and very fresh and flavourful. Prices are on the higher side but you get what you pay for.

Amazing food and flavor in the food. Great service as well.

I ve waited patiently for a few years to visit this gem in North Toronto. In my travels around the world sampling Jamaican cuisine, this location stays true to the culture while offering great service and presentation. Highly recommended to all.

Great restaurant, very friendly family and excellent chicken.

Quality Jamaican food in a sit down restaurant format. Everything was delicious. Wray & Nephew added to their signature cocktail was amazing. Appetizers were super tasty. Main course was plentiful. Ill be back for round 2 soon.

BEST boneless jerk chicken of my life! Amazing prices and great portions too.

Had an oxtail lunch special, it was beautiful

Not just the best jerk chicken Ive ever had, but one of the best restaurant meals Ive had in recent memory. Beautiful presentation, attentive service, and reasonable prices too. They deserve 6 stars!

Food is very good. Definitelyyyyyyy runs on Island time though

This Jamaican restaurant has Dining in and the patio available. Great staff and etiquette. I love this place. Complimentary delicious thick rich vegetable soup when dining in will convert meat lovers to vegetarians. The food is authentic! Not too spicy. This is one of my Ox tail & rice and peas spots; delicious thick gravy not oily. Loved the peas soup with their signature jerk chicken in it. Wow! They push the recipes to the limits of yummy. Jamaica s National dish Ackee and salt fish with fried dumplings melts in your mouth and reminds me of Grandmas cooking. Authentic with a twist. Jerk chicken yesssssssssss... rum cake and wine is available Yay!

Hi, Birthday lunch today for my friend Jean. Fabulous curry goat entrée with rice and peas and all the fixings. And Red Stripe. Could not have been better!

Good jamaican food but restaurant is too dingy..needs a major face lift

I like these kind of small restaurants offering typical dishes of a country. The jerk chicken was delicious. I would have preferred if they had a spicier option but still I enjoyed it. Will visit them again in the future.

Worst Caribbean food Ive ever had.

Oxtail was very tasty and tender. One of the only places that I get oxtail and love how its cooked. Definitely will visit again..

Incredible service! (I initially went for a soup but then got the jerk chicken plate when I found out I would get soup with my meal regardless) Everything was delicious!

I often order food from this restaurant through Ubereats and love it. Each time the items are fresh, well done and extremely tasty. We mostly order meat dishes, and always add the patties as they are so delicious.

I absolutely always enjoy my experience at Scotthill Caribbean Cuisine. The food is very delicious and the owners and staff are very professional and helpful. The ambiance is perfect and its delightful to dine in or take out whatever your preference. My family and friends really love it here.

Awesome food and great service. Wonderful people. Never disappoints!

Great service, dined on the patio and felt very comfortable. Food was delicious, and so filling, so much so I could not finish my steamed snapper! Highly recommend.

I am rather disappointed, after watching a friend of mine reviews I was excited to try the food. I decided to go for lunch on my birthday. I purchased 2 oxtail dinner for me and my husband and the rice was barely cooked i could not eat it. The oxtail was ok but the rice was a disaster my 3 month old son could have done a better job.

Slow services, and the food was just ok

Hands down best overall Carribean restaurant in the city. Had the BBQ Jerk chicken plate and loved every single thing. Great job.

Amazing food!!

First time there , clean place , nice and the jerk pork that I tried was good , for my taste , not overly spicy and very tasty , definitely will go back there

This place right here. My god, they re in the back cooking like my Jamaican grandma. It s a most try.

Ive been twice and the food delicious. Great portions as well
