Best roti.. excellent food selection. Wonderful customer service ?? ??

Been visiting this location for years as well as when they were inside Lexington Market. Food is always prepared fresh and there is such a variety that you are never disappointed and you get a lot for your money. I get enough to last me and my husband for two days. And when I say a lot you are walking out with a heavy bag.

Some of the best food! A must visit

Oxtails are really good. Today I bought the ribs platter with macaroni and cheese and collard greens very, very good. Try them out u won't be disappointed.

The food is top tier! You have to try them if you are ever in Baltimore!

This place is FANTASTIC! The food is wonderfully flavorful and delicious. Jerk chicken was incredible (get some of the gravy and hot sauce on the side) and the Mac and cheese was so good. Shoutout to one of the regulars who helped me get the lay of the land and let me know about all the good work the owner Mike did giving out free food to the needy during the pandemic. He said the portions *used* to be huge, but as you can see from my photo they’re still very generous (and only cost me $10)!! Service was straightforward and the prices weren’t bad. It is take out only, so plan to go home or walk over to Lexington market to eat. Some items aren’t available everyday so if you have your eye on something specific (pumpkin roti) better to call ahead. Can’t wait to come back.

Been knowing Mike for years he can cook his wife can cook delicious Trinidad people I met them two pops and I've been going to get food from them ever since and that's been about 28 years now so if you downtown stop in they have everything when I say everything they have everything in this war on Fridays and Saturdays and the prices of good

This place has terrible food! Do NOT eat here. Food was unseasoned: meat was tough and bland, vegetables were over cooked and mushy, even the corn was nasty. Now can canned corn taste nasty? No salt, no pepper, no butter. Rice and gravy? No salt, no pepper and gravy tasted worst than paste. Go to Mama's Place on Pennsylvania Avenue or join us for UrBan GruB Friday Fish Fry (check us out on FB).

This is an take-out location. It could use a renovation to be more astheticly pleasing because it is a bit antiquated. Okay, enough about the looks.... Now food! I walked in and was pleasantly happy at the inordinate amount of options of food. I asked for pholourie and a doubles one time... Unfortunately they only had roti ?. So I ordered a Goat Roti with pepper. I had to wait 10min, which makes me think the roti skin is freshly made. Let me tell you why... The roti skin was soft, flakey, the split peas was perfectly cooked and o gosh tasty like that! Doh talk for the curry goat...eh eh... Melting off de bone, tasty, and perfect texture! Only down sides are: #1. is its $21, must roti shops sell for $13 in MD. #2. the roti isn't big enough to wrap. #3. The container, a three compartment holder, does not allow for a full roti. #4. The lady who put the food together did not have a mask on.... SO THEY SERVE/COOK/PREP FOOD WITHOUT A MASK???.... I WAS STARVING SO I STILL OREDERD AND ATE...?? #5. I took away a ? because I shared my goat roti with a carribean born and raised person, they took one bite and was like, no thanks. I ATE IT All ??‍♀️

Mr. Mike is very friendly and makes everyone feel welcome. I have been going here for years I love the smothered chicken and Mac and cheese. All the food is great and you get great portions for your money.
