Used to go back in the 1990s when Paul was the owner. The food and quality was A1 back then. The original Mr. Jerk owners run this store now. The food and quality is still exceptional and the service as well!! Truly a neighborhood jem and still one of the best takeout Jamaican restaurants in the city. The best in my opinion. I will always love this place and happy to see the original owners putting such quality and care into the restaurant. I rate it a 12 out of 10. Everything is good there, so tasty and big portions and great prices! Hope it's there forever.

For years I have been eating here. Loved the food. A couple of weeks ago I had the usual jerk chicken dinner and it was tasteless. I noticed management changed and thought I would give them another try, as the staff is friendly. But once again, it is tasteless. So sad, lost a place I loved to go to.

Mr. Jerk has been serving the community for many many decades. New management took over, but I can assure the quality has not slipped! Huge portions, low price, amazing jerk.

Our food was really good, delicious Chicken and owner was super nice and gave us some samples, for sure I'm going again

Grabbed a jerk pork and quarter chicken dinner and a couple patties for dinner. Great food, good value, and lots of variety.

It’s a very small place. But fast and efficient. The young Indian guy who took my order was pleasant. The rice is decent. Adding gravy is a good touch. Fried chicken is pretty decent. Would taste even better if it was cooked to order but I understand. Coleslaw is not good. It’s just dry cabbage and carrots with no dressing. I’ll be back to try the jerk pork.

Delicious Food They Prepare your orders pretty fast and always have a good variety of different things ?? for people who eat pork I definitely recommend it

This place is just awesome! We were visiting from Chicago and happened to drive by Mr. Jerk. We noticed the line of local people waiting in front. This made us want to stop for some food. This was a great decision as we met the nicest owner who served some very delicious food. The place is simple and small but the food and service were amazing! I would highly recommend to anyone who wants an authentic local experience.

I heard this place was one of the best in the city so I had to try it! The guy serving was so incredibly kind and cool! He gave me extra jerk chicken when I told him I was from Vancouver and he told me they’re a family run and owned business (which I absolutely love) and he even threw in a beef patty for me as well to try ? The food was SUPER delicious, every single item was very nice and satisfying, great portion (I got the jerk dinner, a piece of fried fish, and the beef patty) and such a great price as well.

What can I say, when you are this good they call you Mr! All I can tell you about this place is there is always a lineup and I don’t know anybody who waits for bad food. Don’t judge this place by the area as it is a gem if you like jerk.I got the oxtail which is pretty good dish, the gravy is nice and flavourful and portion wise you will not be hungry. The patties are great here as well so don’t forget to add one of those to your order. Worth the trip and worth the wait for this ‘mom and pop’ place.
