Jerk chicken shawarma poutine sounds amazing! This is probably one of the first places I went to and got a jerk chicken poutine, this poutine was just perfect, nice amount of cheese, chicken and sauce. Also getting an aside of plantain is a must !
This place has been my number one craving for the past couple months. I've had various jerk chicken places, both places I've tried on my own due to reviews, as well as recommendations from Jamaican and Carribean acquaintances. Overall, despite them telling me this place is not the most authentic, this place serves my most favourite jerk chicken meal by far, and I find myself coming here as often as I can. Their fried plantains on the side are so tasty, and the jerk gravy is absolutely delicious! I almost always pay the 50 cents extra for more sauce (it's not an option on the menu, you have to ask them for it). They already put a decent amount without it, it's just a personal preference of mine. The inside of the restaurant smells absolutely mouth watering, and they have a loyalty program now to save up points for a free jerk chicken leg meal every time you eat there now and other things! I love how they give you such a big portion, as well as including vegetables and plantains on the side, it's really nice especially for someone like me who cares a bit about the overall balance of nutrients of the things I eat. As for the jerk chicken, I'm not sure about places that said it was bland or flavourless, because for me, it was very juicy and flavourful even on the parts that wasn't covered by the jerk gravy, which can't be said for some other places I won't name where the jerk chicken was actually kind of bland and dry. The jerk chicken also has a decent amount of spice to it, more so than most other places I've had where its barely spicy, and the rice is so good! Definitely the best rice I've had from any jerk chicken restaurant. The staff in there are always extremely friendly and polite! You can tell they definitely enjoy what they do, and it shows in the very reasonable portion size to price ratio. This may not be everyone's favourite jerk chicken place, but it is definitely mine.
After hearing about this place from Scarborough Spots staff picks, we went to Chris Jerk to try the legendary jerk chicken poutine smothered in rich gravy and cheese. Everybody there was super friendly and smiling away. I love when people love their work (or is it even work at that point?). Food was fantastic. Will be back.
It has been a long time—like over 4 years—since I visited Chris Jerk. The jerk chicken is exactly how I remembered it, but better. The gravy is flavorful and not salty. The rice is not your typical version of rice and peas, but it's super fluffy and delicious. It was always my go-to Jamaican joint in Scarborough, and it will continue to be for the near future.
I’ve been to Chris’s Jerk many times and decided to share this gem with my family. My favourite is the jerk chicken wrap, and it was delicious as always. I had a fantastic experience, especially thanks to Aretha’s amazing customer service. The sauces I ordered didn’t arrive, on the wrap also wasn’t wrapped properly. I left happy. when I got home, that was my result. My mom enjoyed the fish, which was flavorful and beautifully presented.
I been wanting to try this place for years. I always heard good things. I got the jerk chicken breast meal with rice and peas with coleslaw and plantains. It was truly amazing. Only thing I would do next time is ask for extra rice. But other than that, it’s a good portion and taste is amazing.
I came based on a friend’s recommendation, and it exceeded my expectations. The portions were quite filling. The place isn’t very large, but it’s clean and well organized. The service was quick and efficient. Overall, it was a simple yet very satisfying meal. The prices are quite reasonable. I’ll definitely come back again.
