Decided to re-visit this allwyns's location for delicious Jamaican food…read more Located in a small strip plaza, there's generally plenty of parking. Inside, it's a small operation. Not a lot of seating to eat so consider takeout. Food: Jerk chicken sandwich - the jerk chicken had good flavor though a slightly oversalted. The coleslaw was crunchy and sweet to contrast the chicken. The coco bun was decently soft though not the must fluffy. 4/5. Goat roti - really good flavor and tender goat. The roti itself is very soft yet holds up against the filling. Pretty good at deboning the goat meat for the roti though the owner usually warns that there could be bones still. Pretty huge roti. 5/5. Allwyns is one of my favorite places to get jerk chicken. Definitely recommend.

I tried 2 places for beef patties today. Here and "Island…read moreFoods Express" at Woodbine and Hwy 7. Look at my other review for them. To compare the two, I ordered a spicy beef patty and tested them for flakiness, crispness, and filling. First off price wise. It was cheaper here at $2.70 including tax. I found that this beef patty here at Allwyn's was flaky enough but lacked the crispness of the outside dough. As well the filling was too moist or soggy and it was translucent which was off putting. Also, the patty was lukewarm and not piping hot. I came here to try one and then maybe go back in and pick up a dozen. But From the one patty I had. It didn't warrant a purchase of a dozen to take home for future enjoyment. I must say the patty was not bad. However I found it was not the best one I have had in Toronto. I will pick Islands Express Foods for a beef patty in future visits. Recommendations, I suggest you try for yourself as this is a personal preference but I'll stick to some other locations for my beef patty fix.

George's Tastee is a well-known patty brand in Jamaica and their patties here are well worth a try!…read moreI was told this location recently changed ownership/management for a little over a year now. The patties are really fresh and there is a wide selection of flavors and spice levels! Also unique to this location is that you have the option to purchase the patties in bulk and frozen which is convenient to have a supply at home. There are also cooked food options available (curry goat, oxtail, jerk chicken), hardo bread and an array of drinks to purchase to pair with your food. The layout of this establishment is spacious and meant for takeout, but there is a small space in the corner to enjoy your meal if desired. The prices of the COOKED food here seem reasonable. To me, the prices of the PATTIES are unbelievably low. (For context: I am visiting from the States where a singular patty costs anywhere from $4 to $5USD). At the very least these prices should be considered reasonable and if not for the prices then the taste definitely warrants giving the patties a try.

On Saturday, I had a hankering for a beef patty. I had just come out of Shoppers Drug Mart and…read moreremembered George's Tastee in the same plaza. Perfect! This store is located a few doors down from Church's Chicken. The former is closest to McCowan Road. I backed into a parking spot closest to the store. I walked in. This place has hot foods. It had jerk chicken, curry, goat, and a lot more when I was there. I saw the oxtail, which is my favourite dish out of the bunch. I'll need to come back for it. I was here for patties. This place has cheap prices when it comes to frozen, boxed patties. I normally see a dozen frozen beef patties for $20 at my usual patty places. This place had them for $15.50. Such a great deal! You can get veggie, chicken, and beef patties. With beef, it comes in mild, regular spicy, and extra spicy. I got a box of regular spicy. I could smell the hot patties. I had to get one for the road. I got a regular spicy beef patty. I couldn't resist! The woman who was originally behind the hot foods helped me get my hot patty. I paid for my purchases with a credit card. I tapped and was good. I thanked her and left with my purchases. You can get bread here, too. It has rolls on the weekend. I liked seeing desserts by the payment area. It was difficult for me to resist getting some. Next time, for sure. I was determined to get patties and I succeeded. I ate my beef patty as I drove off to run my next errand. It was so good. The spice level was nice. The patty was hot. The outside was flaky, but sturdy. I was a happy camper. I've had a few patties at home. Whether I heat them up in a toaster oven or microwave oven, they are yummy and bring great joy to me and my tummy. I'm glad that I finally visited this store. I have passed by it countless times. I'll be back for more patties and some oxtail. (97)

The space is super clean and welcoming with a solid variety of menu options. I went for a half dozen beef patties, served piping hot and incredibly fresh.

Awesome value for a satisfying bite that doesn't disappoint.

Listen, you have to come here and get the spicy beef patties…read more My friend and I had a beef patty phase, and although we have not tried every single shop that sells beef patties in Toronto yet, this has been the best in our search so far. P Jay's patties are delicate soft pastry encasing melty oxtail sauce flavoured spicy beef. Warden Station Patties, who? The first time I had these patties, it was 5 minutes before closing time. I made the mistake of only ordering one, so I had to wait till the next day to pick up a dozen. You have to eat them fresh because they won't be the same the next day. The first time I tried the jerk pork it was amazing, second time it was kind of dry. The oxtail is fine, the portion is a bit on the small side but with all the rice they give you, it's still a filling dish. The rice is super extra almost-burn-your-hands hot every time so be careful. The vegetables are hit and miss. I would probably stick to the patties for P Jays. The plaza is tiny but there's always plenty of parking. P Jay's is hidden in the hallway that runs right through the middle of it. Take-out only: there is no seating here, you order your food, and you eat it somewhere else. Cash only, there is no ATM, so come prepared.

With friends visiting from out of town, it was a good opportunity to enjoy some good food while introducing some new friends to authentic Jamaican cuisine. Of course, patties were a must, and P Jays makes one of the best in the GTA. If you didn't know, Patrick (the P in P Jay's) is the brother of the late Randy of Randy's Patties. You have to try these patties! For dinner, we picked up Oxtail, Curry Goat, Fricasee Chicken, and Rice & Peas. We made Coleslaw to complement this meal but we couldn't find any plantain. That would have been really good! As expected, everything was absolutely delicious, with the first-timers loving every bite! The meats were all tender and juicy with great depth of flavour. The chicken, unlike a lot of other restaurants, didn't fall apart. The food is 5/5

Got food delivery from here and I am blown away!…read more I wanted one thing and one thing only - beef patties! On food delivery platforms you're able to either get your beef patties as singles, dozens, fresh (hot), or frozen. I opted for a dozen of fresh baked once patties and they still got delivered pretty warm when I got them. Got the mild beef patties and I was truely blown away by the flakiness of the pastry but more so super impressed by the amount of beef filling in these. I thought the filling to flake ratio was perfect for my liking. The mild beef pattie just has a tiny kick of spice, so I'd definitely be getting spicy or extra spicy next time I order from here again. I'm super impressed and can't wait to get more here! Definitely worth checking out.
