Trini To D Bone in Victoria

This place is so good that it s a problem. I haven t had anything like this since being in the Caribbean. The spice is perfect. I will be dreaming of it until I can get my hands on another chicken roti. 10/10

Some of the best food in town.

Excellent food. Feel like Im back home in Sweet Sweet T&T

A friendly place with amazing food.

Best Caribbean food in Victoria hands down

Without this restaurant, Victoria would be a sad place to live

if there was a list of the top 5 place to eat in Victoria, this spot would take all 5.

I dream about the rotis regularly... get down here fast! Its my favourite spot to fight seasonal depression in the winter, the food warms your whole body and makes you feel like your soul has been replenished. So good!

Absolutely excellent food. Pork was fantastic, and good roti and filling.

After a long flight, my son and I needed a quick and tasty fuel-up and TTDB did not disappoint! A warm welcome and authentic flavours. Its a quick detour if you are going from the Victoria airport to downtown or if you are headed from the airport to points north. Steak roti and chicken roti both excellent. Medium spicy was the right spice level for us and we like spicy food.

Ive had the chicken roti twice now and it is absolutely delicious! Authentic feel to the place and friendly, smiling service. Seating for about 18 people. Food

I have a friend who recommended this place and was very hopeful that I could finally find a good roti spot in Victoria. How disappointed I was! The roti s are very bland and one note. They re too heavy on carbs and too light on protein and just completely tasteless overall. I bought roti s for my entire family and across-the-board everyone says the same No, thank you to buying these again. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very clinical and off-putting to sit in. I would not recommend!

Rotis are amazing and fresh. I was in heaven

In a bit of a weird location, but definitely worth the trip. I work abroad with a ton of Trini guys so I m happy to find a proper Caribbean spot close to home. Chicken roti was *chefs kiss*

Small family owned restaurant thats very friendly. I always get the roti, sometimes they have special items in the menu that are always great as well. Highly quality food made with love!

Amazing food and fantastic service! A MUST VISIT WHEN YOURE IN VICTORIA!

Chicken roti was awesome!

Authentic to D-Bone!!! My work mates and I ordered this the other week, and we almost fell of our chairs how good the Roti was. I can t say enough good things about our experience. Make sure to add some spice to your roti, hats off the chefs. Amazing experience. Best curry I ve had in years. Just like me ma s. Worth the wait, sooo good. Only downfall is they close a couple days a week lol. A must try!

I am speaking as a Trinidadian and who mother use to make ROTI. Trini to de Bone cheap out on the meat. (You should look up an old tv (1984) commercial (WHERES THE BEEF). Trini to de Bone WHERES THE MEAT. If you ever go Vancouver check out BABY DAHL ROTI SHOP 2707 Commercial Dr, Vancouver, then compare restaurants. I have lived in Victoria since the 90s and always wanted a roti shop in Victoria but they are a HUGE disappointment for people who knows what you should be getting. The doubles is suppose to be 2 skins with curry channa the give you 1 skin and fold it in half (same price in Vancouver). Taste is good but they give you lots of potato and little meat) Dont ever order roti skins from here. Our options on the island for authentic roti shop is limited, but I wait until I go Vancouver twice a year and get my roti and doubles. Parking: Location is good, small parking lot, but there is street parking.

Excellent Trinidadian food

Really nice food. Fast and friendly!

We had THE MOST delicious vegetarian roti with potatoes and spinach, it was soooo fantastic and fresh, you could feel the love that is put in the food here. Jeffrey was so kind and welcoming and we will definitely be back! Highly recommend! Vegetarian options: Delicious vegetarian options!

All around great place. Could not ask for better. Great food and great prices

i used to live in Parkdale in Toronto & ate Caribbean roti all the time. ive been living in Port Alberni for many years and the last time i had a roti was 2013 on a visit to Toronto. I had an appointment in Victoria this week & so i made a point to come here and get a roti & it was SO GOOD. i had the curried shrimp, my friend had curried chicken, honestly this is one of the best roti ive ever had anywhere, thank you so much. ill be back!

Really fantastic spot! Only had the doubles so far but will be headed back for more

Had a chicken roti and a beef patty. Food was absolutely amazing.

Delicious Roti!

So good!!!

Amazing chicken roti

Very intimate setting with a very homemade vibe with food to compliment. Amazing rotis and I will be back soon!

Some of the best doubles Ive ever had, but you need to call in early as they go fast. Such a unique spot for a city like Victoria.

I have been to every place in town for a Roti.... By far the best all-round I try to make it there once every couple weeks. Killer food

Can I sing this joints praises enough? Never. When Im in Victoria I always get a roti. I love the food, great place.

Heard good things, so I went there around noon on a Wednesday, but they were closed. Consider calling before going, cause business hours on Google were wrong.

My husband and I and our family have been coming here for years, and its the best Roti weve ever had! Jeffrey and his family are amazing as well. If you want a Roti addiction, go here.

Best roti roll Ive had, second best after moms lol, Chicken was highly recommend trying it out, price is good for the quality of the food.

I love the Caribbean food and this place is a jewel in Vancouver Island. Vegetarian options: The Vegetable rottie is an amazing option for vegetarians Food : 5/5 |

Very delicious, but a bit spicy

The Best!!! i crave a chicken roti twice a month, its so delicious

If you ve been to/lived in the Caribbean this will take you ALL the way back! If you haven t, this will give you a taste of what you re missing out on! Absolutely amazing!

The food, amazing! The service was fantastic, so friendly and fast. The atmosphere was also so good, from the colorful decor, to the music that had all the classics and made you feel right at home

Looks like a good place but I went at 430 PM on a Wednesday and the establishment looked like a ghost town with no one in, no lights on, nothing. Google says it s open 11am-7am. Would like to try again but don t wanna waste more time going to a closed shop.

Best Spicy Curry Goat and handmade Roti in town!

Food is delicious albeit a little pricey for a handheld wrap

Just the best roti s I ve had. Their patties are A+ too. They ll make everything to your preferred spice level too. Medium+ is just enough to make my forehead sweat, perfection. Also, the owners are just very kind and welcoming to all of their customers.

What a gem of a place to find to eat. Thank you so much.

An absolute hidden gem in Victoria. Authentic Trinidad food run by the sweetest people. A must try for anyone!

One of the best spots in vic.

Took my Trini family to this great little place tucked away on burnside. They approve!! Authentic trini cuisine and flavours. Super friendly staff. This place is the real deal!

First time at this restaurant based on Google Maps recommendations. We had never had a Roti before. All of us ordered the chicken Roti. The pulled pork was not available. No reason was given but I suspect it had something to do with us being there right at open. The interior is small, but appeared clean. Decorated with nicnaks from Trinidad and Tobago. The young lady at the counter serving us was not very smiley or cheerful when taking the order. I didn t get the sense she wanted to be there. Food arrived about 15 minutes from time of order. The Roti was amazing. I have never had it before so I have nothing to compare it with but it was so flavourful and everyone loved it. Three were mild spice and one medium. The medium had a nice heat to it. Very enjoyable. Would absolutely go back.

We have been here several times already. The roti is delicious. The double doubles are tasty. It is a real home kitchen feel. Parking: 5 spots

Great roti

Great service, and amazing food!! Been coming for years, they never disappoint

Ive had way better routines my mother used to make it, And It didnt taste like that too much flour taste And the goat was Okay nothing to write home to Mom about. Ill keep looking for the best routine in Victoria

Nice, small Trinidadian restaurant. Service was good. Food was decent. A bit pricy but food is expensive these days.

Fantastic every time! I had shrimp roti. Food

Just moved to Victoria and very happy to find this restaurant just down the road from me. The chicken roti was amazing. Will definitely be eating here regularly.

Ordered a veggie roti as hot as hell make it and it was perfect. This is some tasty food for sure.

Trini to the Bone say it all. i when the last Saturday and had a shrimp rottie it was delicious am sorry that i dont have a picture.

Delicious, good pepper sauce authentic Trini roti.

The pork roti is so good I saw god

This is comfort food and so delicious! I almost don t want people to know about it so it doesn t get too busy, but omg, so good!! When moving from Toronto, I wasn t sure I d find some of my favourites here, and this hits the spot every time!

The best Trini food in B.C., I recommend.

We were looking for something new to try in the area & stumbled upon this place! We got the chicken roti & the goat curry - both were AMAZINGLY delicious. The owner is super friendly as well, explaining & suggesting what to get since it was our first time and we aren t too familiar with Caribbean food. 10/10 experience, we ll be back for sure and we ll come earlier so that we can try the Doubles next time!

Authentic roti, healthy food, friendly service. For a change of pace, try the buss up shut. Delicious!

Delicious amazing food, Doubles on Saturday morning early and best to put in your order..yummy!

Amazing food, good prices and the owners are super friendly. Will be going back for sure!

If you are from the Caribbean... This is a good taste of home.... Decent Curry

Best lunch in Victoria. Amazing flavor, filling, fresh, authentic, perfect blend of spices. A+

My husband was recommended Trini to D Bone by his barber and it was so good! I got the chicken roti and he got the curried goat and it was great. Small little place where they make each dish to order and it took maybe 7 minutes to get our food. Everything came out hot and we ll definitely be back

Goat curry with a buss up shirt (deconstructed wrap on a plate with torn roti to dip in sauce) is an amazing once a week treat on Fridays only. Great Trini drinks as well. Can eat in or to go, very tasty authentic fare for a reminder of sunnier climes and times.

Beautiful place, nice music, lovely staff, and very delicious food! Ill be back!

They are closed April 18th - May 8th, 2023.

A little gem on the Island that everyone must try. Absolutely phenomenal and superb service and quality

This is my favourite restaurant in Victoria, the one I missed most when I left the city and the first one I went to when I came back to visit. I first found out about it through word of mouth; it may be easy to miss if you are visiting Victoria and focus on the downtown, but it s well worth a special trip. The roti has a perfect flaky, tender texture, the peas are beautifully seasoned, and the meat is always perfectly cooked. Plus they have good vegetarian options, especially if you go on a Saturday when they are serving the excellent doubles. Meat-eaters can also enjoy the delicious goat curry on Fridays and Saturdays. The portions are generous, so be sure to arrive hungry!

Delicious! Reminds me of my moms Trinidadian cooking! Miss these flavours and so glad to find a place with this level of quality in Victoria. It s a must folks!

was in Victoria for a day to catch Interstellar in IMAX. came here for lunch, ordered the Goat with buss-up-shut. it was amazing. thats all that needs to be said. great, friendly service, and a clean restaurant. would definitely come back if im in Victoria again!

The owner was super friendly and we had a nice chat. The food was spectacular. We ordered the chicken roti and it was super fresh and a good portion for dinner. Will definitely be back.

It s homemade roti! It s delicious! . Will definitely be back for this yumminess! What a treat! Best roti I ve ever had!

This is one place where the food literally makes your mouth water! Definitely one of our regular go-to. The roti, the doubles all delicious!

Everyone should try the roti here. All those who Ive introduced to the food here have been amazed and baffles they havent heard of Trini To D Bone before. Fantastic family-run business. Filling meals for decent prices. Nothing fancy for seating, and quite frankly thats fine by me, and many others, as it would likely result in higher prices. If youre thinking about trying this place, DO!

The food is so damn tasty! It is the best Rotis in town hands down. Consistently been amazing each monthly visit I make

I thought I would try some take out (I got a roti w/ pork), as I live nearby and I haven t tried Caribbean food. This is one of the tastiest meals I have had the pleasure of eating; I just finished up eating, and I wish I had ordered more for later this evening. I am really glad to live nearby, as I can see this becoming a more regular take out spot for my partner and I. The spice is properly spicy, the flavours are dialled in, and the meat is cooked perfectly. It also makes for a great meal to eat on the go or in a rush. The man working the restaurant was very friendly, and the food is excellent. What else can you ask for?

Make a plan to try some delicious Caribbean food! Taste like the real thing from Trinidad and Tobago. Enjoy friendly service and some soca music. Food : 5/5

We re visiting the city and a friend used to live in Victoria recommended this place. We are impressed of the food, the meat is so flavorful and tender, and the wrap pairs so well with the dish, amazing we ordered the pulled pork and goat (goat is only available on Fri&Sat) love both

Best food I have had in the week I have been visiting Victoria. This spot was recommended to me and is awesome! The staff are very welcoming. The chicken is pulled, curried, perfection. The pork is pulled, set in a sweet sauce. Both were paired with a curried potato mash with chickpeas. I ordered spicy. And it was. Small location that youre not likely to sit at, though there are tables. My order took less than 10 minutes. Whether you stay or take out, you will be glad you ordered.

Do yourself a favor and go for the Saturday morning doubles, you wont be sorry!

Delicious and that s why we come here. Rotis are a little small If you re really hungry you might have to order two rotis for one person.

This is the best place for food on the island nothing even comes close to how amazing the food is here i cannot state how wonderful the food is every time i come and how amazing the service is in this little family owned business

Amazing food, owner was super friendly, and loved the entire vibe of the place!

Amazing food! No shortcuts here, this is the real deal. And they re such nice people too. Go get some right now

Fantastic food

Fun!

You lost a customer. I ordered roti shells,. I got roti shells. Not original, made by hand shells. I ve spoken with the owner about pre-ordering shells made from scratch. So, I did pre order. My family was really excited. I picked up my shells and the were manufactured shells, not homemade; and costly. Won t be back.

I had enough friends who had thoroughly enjoyed this place bugging me to try it. To be fair, I knew of this place for a very long time being a former Spectrum student and always seeing this place going by. Kinda my fault for always driving by in a hurry and never actually stopping by to check them out. My bus driver buddy who drives the 22 route urged me to go everytime whenever the both of us go by the place. So I decided to slow from my hectic schedule and dine in. Um, this is one of those places where you want to implant your caboose into the seat and never leave. I could just sit for hours listening to Sean Paul and Daddy Yankee tracks inside this place and order half a dozen bottles of Ting eating roti. I ordered roast beef, chicken, and pulled pork roti. I had the first 2 on-site and the latter for take out because I had to stop procrastinating and leave in order to go back and continue packing and cleaning before my move out. The roast beef is hands down my favorite. The chicken I was told was usually the customer favorite; dont get me wrong, it is delicious indeed but I still enjoyed the succulent roast beef more. I drove out of the place when the food comatose hit me hard and I needed to make an emergency landing ... I mean pit stop at my parents place. I gifted away my pull pork roti to my brother and I hit a deep siesta in my moms pergola. I was out cold for 3 hours. I tell you; this was how satiated I was with the comfort food. No other meal I had to date puts me into a restful state post. I needed this, I was going through stressful times and this was healing soul food. Other reviewers are not kidding with accolades; try this place out. Parking: Parking lot right in front of the restaurant

Excellent cuisine. Doubles and the Curry was incredibly tasty. Cant wait to try again. Superb!!!

I have been to Trinidad multiple times and this is the real deal! I drive over the Malahat for this food The doubles taste just like youre at a doubles stand on the side of the road in POS and the chicken roti is to die for!! Geoffry and his family are warm and welcoming - true Trinis

The chicken roti was very tasty. I had the medium spice and there was definitely some heat there.

Had other roti but here is the best! Have to try

Tasty roti

A great intimate spot to have amazing roti! Peanut butter punch would have been the icing on the cake!

Fantastic food, very flavorful.

Feels like you re in a Caribbean restaurant! Jeffrey is a fun guy and this husband and wife team are delightful. The food is delicious and flavorful spicy. I would have taken a photo but I just couldn t wait to devour my pulled pork roti! Yum yum.

Awesome, authentic Trinidadian restaurant! The doubles are fabulous and the curry goat is among the best Ive ever had! Highly recommend :)

Jeffrey and Nirmala are wonderful humans. We feel blessed that they chose to open a tiny restaurant right in our neighborhood - we view them as neighbors and friends and well as thriving entrepreneurs! Love the great food and culture.

Tried roti for the 1st time in my life. We will be coming back for more. So delicious!

Always really friendly, food is filling, delicious, and healthy.

This place is a gem. The food is delicious and I like the atmosphere. Its good to support an independent local business- give the roti a try, you will love it.

This place was fire! Traveled up here from Seattle and stumbled upon this gem! Jeffrey (owner) was the nicest guy and he and the rest of the crew make some mean Roti! Had to come back again the next day (Saturday) for Doubles, which are only served that day. Well worth it! This made our Victoria trip what it was.

Best roti in town!

Big fan of this place. Delicious Rotis, whether chicken or pork. Very tasty. Very sweet, family-run operation.

My partner and I are from the Comox Valley and wish we had this restaurant back home. The food was amazing, it takes like fresh homemade food!

First time trying Caribbean food. It was amazing and we will definitely go back again to eat chicken and lamb!

Went for lunch with some guys from work and food was incredible. Highly recommended especially if you like spicy food!!

This place has to be my favourite spot in Victoria. The authenticity of the food and welcoming owners make this spot a pleasure every time.

Authentic and delicious

Love this place... especially on Saturdays when the doubles come out. Highly recommended.

tasty and filling food, will return again

Absolutely delicious. Owners are so friendly.

Good size, super soft shells, tasty warp! Will stop by again.

Fantastic roti and Caribbean curries

Are there three days in a row. Amazing food I suggest the pork at medium+ spice.

I love a restaurant with only a few options on the menu - you know whatever you order, its going to be killer. This place absolutely delivers. We ordered the chicken and the pork and both were amazing. Each were unique in flavor. The wraps were huge and very satisfying.

Great food and experience owners. Make sure to get their goat special its delicious and a must to have. I usually get two servings

D roti lashing!!!! And this coming from a group of trinis!

yum

Absolutely great goat for lunch

Great atmosphere, the owner is a very personable friendly guy. Roti was delicious and the trini doubles were delicious. Great restaurant

SERVING excellent food would be much more accurate than doling out! There is nothing meager about these meals.

I am addicted to the magical food conjured up here. And so is everyone in our household. If you love Trini chicken roti, beware! Because you ll keep coming back for more, even when you weren t planning too! Good people, good food. Yum yum.

If you love to try new things this is the place for you. The food is perfect the flavours are amazing and the staff always has a smile on their faces. I eat here at least once a week when working in Victoria, highly recommend you come have lunch here.

Best roti Ive ever had, 11/10 would go again

Try the goat on Saturdays, or the doubles for a real Island taste. The Owners are the nicest people that you could meet.

this little hidden gem on the large island of Vancouver island provided and amazing friendly welcoming for first time travelers. being a Caribbean my self it just felt amazing that even on a island where this isint a norm, theirs still people doing what it takes too keep our culture alive. the food was amazing *coming from a guyanese s*

Its not easy to find Caribbean food on the Island but this is a hidden gem and one of my favorite places to grab Roti for lunch.

Great vibe, great food, and love the family.

Owners super nice, such a jem. Food was great, tasty as heck, good value and want to come back to try the goat. Def worth a visit

So good! Everytime I come here its for their Roti. The staf are super friendly and the food is amazing.

Our go-to place for some delicious sweet sweet tnt food. The doubles are reeeaaaal nice! And we love di buss up shot on the weekends

This roti shop has the best roti and Caribbean food culture on Vancouver Island!!!

Best rotis!

Delicious thank you so much

Very authentic and amazing Trini food!

What can I say about this restaurant other than it is hands down the best Carribean restaurant on the west coast. I have been able to go back home in a few years and every time I come here and have the food it reminds me of home. The food, the atmosphere, the staff, its all amazing and I highly recommend anyone to go here and eat.

If youre craving an authentic, family owned, down to earth place with an awesome atmosphere and amazing food. This is it! Jeffery is the man! Try Doubles on the weekends and the Roti are always fantastic!

Visiting once is not enough, its a new favorite! The food is delicious, the decor and atmosphere is spot on, and Jeffery embodies great customer service.

The food is delicious and the owners are a gem! This is arguably the best food Ive had in Victoria.

Been wanting to check this spot out since I spotted it walking by, finally got dinner here a couple of times, and super glad to have finally made it in! The roti is delicious, Ive now had the shrimp, pork and roast beef, all were amazing but the pork would have to be my fav so far. This is going to be a regular spot for my boyfriend and I!

If you love goat, look no further. It feels like you are a family home and the vibe is pure comfort.

A big vibe! As a trini livin in BC for d last 10 years, I hadda say, d chicken roti change meh life and I will 100% b returning! Cant recommend enough.

We loved it. Food was fantastic, has the weekend special goat. Cant wait till we can go back again.

everything they sell slaps especially the roti have to get it spicy or you re missing out on life

By far the best roti Ive ever had! The doubles are worth the trip on a Saturday and Jeffrey is so friendly. A must visit!

Incredibly tasty!

So good! Eaten here many times, on every visit the food was perfect and the owner was very nice. Thank you!

Simply D best! Seriously. My husband and I have been missing proper roti since Toronto and this is the BEST in the west for sure. Super sweet and FAST service. The veg roti is vegan and perfect in every way. Great price and clean too. Couple tables out front if you can pull yourself away from chatting up the owner :-). Looking fwd to trying the fish rori and having some doubles next Saturday!

For me pretty pricy for only a wrap of only potatoes & pieces of shrimps, I think 8 small for.$13.99.

A must visit every time I go to the island

Food is delicious, service is wonderful, prices are good; what else can you ask for?! The shrimp roti is my favourite one of my favorite places to pick up dinner on my way home.

Just incredibly rude service. Told me it would take 20 minutes for my food after I had already paid. I waited outside, went in after 20 minutes they told me it would be longer. I kept waiting and went in after another 10, my food was sitting on the counter. The lack of courtesy to let me know when she knew I was waiting was disgusting. I would rather eat at McDonalds than this place.

Good food and friendly people

Thanks Jeffrey for saving me the last 2 doubles, fantastic. Also had the curry chicken roti. Been 2 years since having some authentic Trini food. I recommend them highly.

First time coming here, love it! Had the chicken curry roti. Ordered medium spicy but got extra hot sauce on the side and glad I did. Now my mouth is burning in the best possible way. Mostly chicken, potatoes and some chickpeas. So nice to have trins roti in Victoria.

My comfort spot. My go to is the chicken roti! Loaded with spicy flavorful chicken and potatoes, so goood and run by such a friendly couple. Such a hidden gem in our city!

Friendly service with delicious & authentic food. Loved the chicken roti.

Delicious food and friendly service. Makes me feel like Im back in the Caribbean.

Awesome doubles! Would definitely recommend these to anyone coming to Victoria. Also had the vegetable roti and it had an awesome potato and spinach filling. Must go for anyone visiting Victoria!

Great Mom & Pop place. We need more of this in Victoria and less that lack in substance but are all about the instagram/hipster scene.

My Heavens!! Taste buds I forgot I had were activated by the Chicken Roti. Thank you for a reminder of my childhood.. No one from the subcontinent will be able to resist your food!

Friendly. Great authentic Roti. My kids love it too.

Great place to grab a quick luck. The roti is super tasty and staff were friendly.

A great local spot for Trini food love the doubles and wings

Ive had several Rotis from Trini to D bone, some werent to my liking (after having the pork roti the others just dont measure up). I gave this place 5 starts because the pork roti that they make is heavenly, from the flavours they pack into the meat to the great spices in the filling. The owner is very friendly. Trini to D Bone is worth the stop.

Great food

Had a nice visit at Trini to D Bone, it was our first visit but definitely not our last. I havent had a roti this good since being back in Scarborough. The staff were amazing to talk to and they were very nice. A cozy restaurant serving some great food that doesnt make you wait too long to dig in. If you are going for doubles, they are only served on the weekends as they are in high demand, so much so, its better to call ahead and place and order so you dont miss out. So happy we can get delicious food like this on the island. With way too many fast food places on the island, this place is a stand alone gem.

From a fellow Trini, truly authentic and tastes just like home!! 100% would recommend

All my Caribbean people living in Victoria....and for those in B.C........if u want a roti to take you back to the rhythm of steelpan, or relaxing on a beach or just living with your people....please check this place out. The food, the vibe, the people and everything is beyond any other places in B.C. This is worth jumping on a HarborAir plane or BC ferry and getting over here to Victoria. My trini slang coming out..........Come nah man....yuh cant be in BC and not come to this place.....tell them I send yuh! 100% guarantee.

We had the chicken roti and it was delicious! Great hot sauce too!

What a friendly guy that runs this place! About as close to the Jamaican food Ive missed as Im going to get. Also, they have Ting! If you havent had it, try it.

I used to live in Trinidad in the 80s and really miss the roti shacks which are everywhere! True street food done very very well! Wonderful to find a truly authentic roti here in Victoria.
