Our first time trying boneless chicken roti from Rotilicious Caribbean Restaurant in Ajax. It was delicious and the roti shell was super fresh and the potatoes and sauce was so creamy. But it needed more sauce. Next time I'll ask for extra sauce on the side for dipping! There is a restaurant section but we went to the takeout section. It was nice and cozy with homey feeling. Big thanks to Chico, co-owner for the great and friendly service! read more

Rotilicious - Boneless chicken roti - Caribbean Near Me - Ajax, Ontario

This place was recommended by a friend. I ordered a curry beef roti, a potato chickpea roti and a double. The prep was quick, wasn't waiting very long. The woman was really nice and friendly. The double was nicely cooked. You could tell it was fresh. The roti skins were the best part as they were the perfect consistency, not too thick and chewy. The curry on the inside of the roti was bland. In tasting it, it seemed that they relied on pepper to be the spice (one had pepper, one didn't). I would order the paratha from them for sure, but that's it. read more

We went to Rotilicious because of a Groupon I had purchased. It's tucked away in an industrial area in Oshawa but certainly serves up great tasting food. This visit was almost a year ago so some of the descriptions could be a little off. We ordered an oxtail roti, jerk chicken on rice and some sort of roasted or fried chicken. Oxtail was flavorful and tender. It took no effort to clean off those bones with the yummy dahlpuri. The jerk chicken pieces were generously seasoned atop a huge pile of dirty rice. We were both very hungry that day and feeling a little guilty for enjoying such good food for half price (thanks to Groupon), we tried the fried chicken which was also good. All in all, it was a very good experience and we'll certainly go back if we're in the area. read more

Driving by and dropped into this restaurant. Quite nice inside. Food was quick and delicious. Priced reasonably. I had a goat roti with a side of peas and rice. I recommend coming. Call before for hours read more

Came in close to closing one weeknight to check this place out. I think they have a sit-in restaurant side to the joint as well? Not too sure, it was pretty dark everywhere inside. I was greeted by a happy, smiley lady who walked out from what I assume is the kitchen. She took my order and promptly disappeared back into the room she came from after telling me it'll take a couple of minutes for my order. Few minutes later, she came back with my food. Brought it home and enjoyed some juicyyyyy jerk chicken on top of some wonderfully seasoned rice and peas. The hot sauce! Get the hot sauce. Believe it's house-made. I taste habanero flavours from it. May need to go and buy myself a jar. Definitely gonna go back when craving jerk chicken. read more

Just one thing to say. Don't make the same mistake I did. I dumped the whole container of their hot sauce on my roti tonight. After all, I have never met a hot sauce I didn't like, and the container is tiny; how much damage could it possible do? Rotilicious your hot sauce slayed me. Like literally smacked fire out of my ass. And did I mention the sauce tasted like what I imagine lighter fluid would taste like? Lord have mercy! That shit should come with a serious warning. Learn from my mistake friends! read more

This was my first time having a roti and it was like a Caribbean burrito. The shell was fresh and baked a little bit. We got the spicy chicken joints with all white breast meat covered in a spicy curry sauce, it also had a few potatoes in there. We had a pineapple soda to go with it. It was good. read more

There's a reason that we only go to Rotilicious for our roti and tonight proved that we are right. Without doubt, tonight's Dahl pourie (the roti skin) was the best ever. Soft, moist, and wonderful flavour. The shrimp curry and boneless goat curry fillings were exceptional as always. Take the word from my Trini wife.....it's worth the drive. read more

Rotilicious=Delicious...this time..... Finding Roti east of Toronto can be a task. Rotilicious took over this sandwich restaurant approimately 5 years ago. Wifey and I have been visiting everytime we get the craving for a roti. They have been a little inconsistent with the chicken. One week the chicken is tender and the next it is dry. We have never been to the sit down part of the restaurant and always go to the take out entrance. If you are a collector of mixed cd calypso, reggae or B rated movies you must stop here. The woman, who I think is the owner, greats everyone with a bright smile as you walk in the door. I ordered 2 boneless chicken roti with hot sauce. Total was $14. Ended up talking to the owner about how her son will be lecturing her when he gets home because she made him wear long johns to school and Friday turned out to be a nice day temp.wise. Nice woman who really appreciates her customers. She served up the roti within 5 minutes and I was on my way home. I was totally looking forward to this roti since the morning. Opened up the roti at the kitchen table and smell of fresh roti and lightly seasoned curry chicken filled my nose. With great anticipation I sink my teeth into tender chicken and flaky roti....yummy. Will return read more

Always enjoy a good Roti and have to say theirs was great and I was treated very nicely by the staff. Well done. read more

It's ok for Ajax, nothing special. I found the veggie roti to be very bland and the doubles extremely soggy. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. I have never had a sit down meal here as I always do take out but there is a reason why this place has been around for many many years. My family and I have been getting our Roti from Rotilicious since they were at their old location a few meters away in the Harwood Plaza. If you want juicy, flavourful, succulent Roti come here. Oh and their doubles...Delicious! Sometimes if you are lucky, they have fresh fudge, be sure to try it as it will not disappoint. This place is a hidden gem. read more

Wow, love the roti! Bought chicken for my wife and beef for myself. The roti was moist and protein was cooked to perfection. Could use a little more salt but overall the flavor was there to keep me inhaling it. Will definitely come here again! Good job guys! read more

I've been going to rotilicious off and on for the last 20 years or so. I've tried many different places but I have to say this is my favourite place. The flavour is great and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. I definitely recommend people to come here if you're in the mood for roti. read more

The guy at the cash doesn't shut up (at least he's funny lol), but the food is amazing! I live in Toronto but trek all the way to Ajax for Rotilicious. There are no doubles in the city that even come close to the doubles at Rotilicious. And their pepper sauce?!? Oh. My. Vishnu. So. GOOD. I like that while I'm waiting for my order I can think about getting some Indian sweets (barfis) or salty snacks (booja). They also have a huge assortment of cold island drinks and get this - they do Bollywood karaoke. I have to bring my friends here! Oh yeah and the roti is epic. No more words GO TRY IT! read more

ROTILICIOUS! Is a combination of roti and delicious, it's a good mix of West Indian food and Chinese West Indian food. What I like the most about this place is the service, most restaurants that fit in the west Indian Chinese category usually suffer in that department and usually deters me from going. If you're a fan of Island Mix and twilight you'll probably like this place. read more

Always had a good experience and the food is good. Prices are good as well. We have been going to this establishment for 8 years and never been disappointed! read more

The food is good but the place has an awful stench. Smells mouldy and damp. The owners should really address this. Otherwise the food is tasty. read more

The roti is always good at this place, I also love their samosas. Only reason I give them 3 stars, is because the restaurant is extremely run down and dirty. I would think with the amazing food that comes out of this place, you would think the building would match that. read more

Best food ever! The customer service was awesome. I ordered the chicken curry w/ dhal puri, the roti was sooo tender and curry was seasoned so perfectly. My tummy wasn't satisfied so then I ended up grabbing the doubles... I have been to Trinidad many times, home of doubles, and I can honestly testify that this has been one of the tastiest I have ever had! Will be headed back there again very soon!!! read more

Four of us stumbled upon this place on our way to Ottawa from Toronto. The food is deliciousssss. We ordered goat with rice, jerk chicken and rice, jerk chicken roti, chickpea and potato roti, and three of us got doubles. The doubles. Are. So. Delicious. The barra is so soft and chewy while the channa is perfect with a little bit of heat. The owner recommended that we try it with the table side hot sauce and it was fantastic. The goat ended up coming out in a roti rather than with rice but my friend didn't mind as it was just as tasty. We're so happy that we happened upon this place and we highly recommend it to anyone in the area! read more

When we were first married and lived in Ajax we found this restaurant. 26 years later we can still say ...it is the best and we still crave not just curry, but Rotilicious! Food is tasty and full of flavour and customer service which is hard to come by these days, is perfect. Our family travels in from TO and Belleville for our deliciously satisfying fix read more

Our favourite roti for seven years now. My husband and I tend to get roti all over the GTA but this one keeps bringing us back. The filling is SO flavourful no matter which you order. read more

I'm on a goal to eat at all the roti places in durham. This place's roti is 2nd only to Taste of T&T just up the road. but their DOUBLES are at the top! I mean fresh, hot and crispy. Way better than any other place I've had it in Toronto. DO NOT BOTHER with takeout, it'll get a bit soggy, just sit down for a few minutes to enjoy it in their dining area. Tons of seating. not a great ambiance, but I came to eat, not look around. read more

My wife and I decided to check out Rotilicious because of its proximity to where we live and also because of the mostly good reviews we read online. What a big mistake! Firstly the service was soooo slow. How long does it take to warm up and wrap a roti? When we ordered, I told the lady at the front counter that I wanted 2 regular chicken rotis. We waited for about 20 minutes, then the guy who seems to own the place finally let us pay. He asked me what I ordered and I told him, 2 chicken rotis. When he went to the kitchen area at the back I could hear him confirming my order with the same lady from before. She then comes back out to the front counter and says to me, "but you told me 2 boneless chicken rotis". I said to her "that is not what I said". "I wanted to regular chicken rotis". That is how they named it as on their pricing sign. Obviously she did not pay attention to what I had ordered. Then she shakes her head with an attitude as if she is annoyed as she returns to the back kitchen area. When she returns to the back, I could hear her telling the guy," they will just have to wait". After waiting for what seemed like an eternity (close to 45 mins), seeing customers come and go, we got our rotis. We had hoped that the quality of the roti would make up for our long wait. Mistaken again. The chicken inside wasn't even cut into bite-sized pieces. There were huge chunks of brown meat inside like a half of a leg, half of a thigh etc. Where did these people get the impression that is how to make a roti. The flavour wasn't good at all either. With the time I had to wait for this terrible attempt at a roti and good service, I could have just driven the longer distance to Roti Hut in Scarborough. I'm never going back to Rotilicious. read more

The absolute most rude people I have ever encountered. Placed my order to an unfriendly, surly individual and promptly walked out in reaction. It felt as though I was bothering them when ordering. Food is generally sub par and never warm, overpriced. Tons of other Caribbean places in town I'll never go to this one again. read more

The food is great but the dine in service was terrible. Went on a Saturday night at 7pm and the server kept disappearing for about 15 minutes at a time. We had to track her down twice - once to get a glass of water and the second time to get a takeout container. I would go back but definitely wouldn't dine in. read more
