    Ordered pickup for dinner from this spot which I have been craving for quite a while. Got the jerk chicken bowl and oxtail bowl, both with Scotty Rice and all the toppings. The pickup experience was super smooth, as my order was just packed when I came in! The inside has some tables for dine in though I took it to go. The bowls were hefty and delicious. For the chicken, we got the half jerk half BBQ option, and I liked the jerk chicken which had a kick of spice. As it has been said, this spot is along Highway 7 so it might be a little more difficult during peak hours to get in and out.

    Oxtail Bowl

    Drove past this place many times and it always caught my eye because it looks so new/clean and brightly lit! Finally got around to trying it and it did not disappoint. The inside is very clean & spacious. I liked the colourful mural with neon lights. The menu isn't too big but that's a good thing for someone indecisive like me. It is displayed on screens behind the counter but the screens do change a little fast. Staff were friendly and since it wasn't busy when we went, it was very quick. The portions are generous and the value meals are well priced. The food is very flavourful though I wasn't a fan of the rice. The oxtail was decent but a little on the sweet side. My jerk chicken was soft. Not juicy but not dry as stated in other reviews. I would definitely give it another try. The parking situation isn't the best as there are only a handful of spots and it's directly on Hwy 7.

    I want to really like this place. It's got a gorgeous dining environment and friendly staff. Ordered jerk chicken sandwich. The toppings and ingredients were excellent and flavourful but I admit I was slightly disappointed when you see their online photos it looks like a panini sandwich in a very large size but really it's a white hamburger bun and the sandwich is pressed flat on a panini grill. I'd rather have it on coco bread. Nothing fancy at all. Kind of like what you do when you're a kid. The jerk chicken was dry with no moisture. Spices were good. 3-stars is my vote. I'm going to give this place another try.

    I'm always down to try new Caribbean food, and this place did not disappoint! It's a pretty small menu so you're not overwhelmed with options. What makes this different than typical takeout Caribbean shops is the bowl option. You pick your protein and rice, and then have many other toppings to add. I opted for no toppings because I wanted to focus on the curry goat and rice flavours. The curry was the perfect spice level, and the goat was nice and tender, but the rice was the true star of the show for me. I highly recommend getting both rice flavours (no extra cost) because they complement each other so well. The portion sizes are massive as well, perfect to carry over to a second meal or share with a friend! The decor and layout is so beautiful too, and there's some seating to enjoy your meal there after you order it at the counter. Parking is minimal and hard to access with the busy Hwy 7 right there, but Scotty Bons is worth the effort to get there!

    came here for lunch and got the jerk chicken bowl ($14.45). Overall, found it a great deal. The food was pretty good with a large selection of toppings and the portion sizes are huge! Probably enough for two people even. Enjoyed it and wouldn't mind coming back.

    Clean and bright location that opens late. Quite nice decor on the inside, but only a couple of tables means its mainly a takeout joint. Jerk Chicken Sandwich - Pretty cheap for a good sized sando. Your choice of toppings, 4 pieces of boneless chicken and then toasted on a panini grill. Boneless was a good choice on a sando, the bread was a bit lackluster and felt a bit dry. Ox tail roti - Pretty big portions, but a bit hard to eat a roti with proteins with bones. Luckily, its not wrapped =). Oxtail was pretty good, but felt a bit cold, maybe because it was near end of day.

    2.5 STARS Noticed Scotty bons is finally open, after weeks of waiting. Got two orders to go; jerk chicken and bbq chicken. It came with a side of cabbage coleslaw, skinless chicken thigh jerk/bbq chicken, rice and peas and a bit of sautéed bell peppers. First bite of the jerk, super dry chicken thighs. I never knew you can over cook chicken thighs to that point, and where's the skin? The jerk marinade was light and a bit spicy at the end, could use bit more jerk seasoning for the chicken to absorb more flavour. Rice and peas were a tad bit mushy, but flavour was good, I can really taste the coconut milk. Best thing on the dish was the coleslaw; had the right amount of creaminess, sweetness and salt. . Same thing goes for the bbq chicken. It was sadly very dry. I'm pretty sure whoever is cooking in the back is not Jamaican, cause they would never overcook chicken (thighs) like this. I'm a little appalled actually. I think Scotty bons is not an authentic Caribbean joint for those seeking for flavour, punch and authenticity. I will not be back, even though it's super close to me, I'd rather drive out 15 more minutes to get the real deal.

    First visit to Scotty Bons did not disappoint! We ordered a bunch of dishes to share amongst a group of 7, family style - sandwiches, jerk chicken wings, jerk chicken, BBQ chicken, coleslaw, and rice & beans. The sandwiches were juicy & so satisfying, but I have to say, the jerk chicken wings and thighs really stood out for me. Incredibly well seasoned, moist, and it paired so well with the coleslaw, rice & beans, and mango chutney. The only thing is that they can sell out by end of day, so you might want to order in a bit in advance for larger orders. The parking situation at this location also isn't the greatest, but I think it's still worth the visit (just avoid rush hour when Hwy 7 is jam packed).

    Jerk Chicken Bowl
    Patricia L.

    I saw people posting about a BOGO via DoorDash so I took advantage of it as It was my first time having Scotty Bons. I got the jerk chicken bowl and even though I got mild, it had a nice kick to it. My chicken wasn't as dry as the other reviewers have mentioned but my rice was a tad mushy. Not sure if that was my fault though cause I did ask for a few of their sauces. Portion size is decent. I like the variety of options like the corn, cold slaw, etc making it very customizable. One bowl had 3 pieces of chicken while the other had only 2...not sure what's up with that lol

    Jerk chicken with rice! You could get it with rice or roti. good portion size. The chicken was boneless, a bit dry and needed some more sauce. Not too into there spices , don't got that jer feeling Sides are good and the spiciness has a good kick! They do have other options as well curry goat, jerk shrimp, oxtail etc Space pretty spacious. more of takeout. Staff are ok.

    Denise P.

    Really enjoyed the jerk chicken bowl and jerk chicken sandwich. The curry chicken bowl was also good but not as impressive as their jerk items. I ordered through ubereats so cannot comment on their service.

    Love the vibe . Caribean cousine to the max

Both had long lineups around lunchtime, but I liked that this spot offers the option to pair your meats with either noodles or rice. The duck was meaty and plump, with beautifully glistening skin. The roasted pork was perfectly seasoned, featuring that addictively crisp, crackly skin. The BBQ pork was equally impressive, tender and juicy with a glossy, caramelized exterior that balanced sweet and savory flavors really well. None of the meats felt overly fatty or heavy, and when paired with steamed cabbage and your choice of noodles or rice, it made for a really satisfying meal. The vermicelli noodles were thick and chewy, and they come with a side of broth in addition to the soups. The soup itself was light with a pleasant herbal note. The noodle broth, however, had great chicken flavor but was slightly too salty for my taste, so I ended up diluting it a bit to fully enjoy it.

There has been a long debate as to left or right BBQ shop to reign supreme. I find the flavourings of HKS to suite my taste buds more. Not to say Excellent is bad but just not what I was brought up with. To each their own. The combo prices have slowly crept up over the years from the 5.99 two meal combo to the current 9.99 price point I enjoy the BBQ pork and duck as the pork has a nice meat texture with crisp skin along with the duck that is meaty and not too fatty with a nice seasoning to infuse through the meat while roasting. The shop is in a food court and if you are looking for a romantic meal for 2... this may not be your ideal destination. If you are looking for more of a HK hustle and bustle with a side attitude if you take too long to go with your meal, this is the place for you. Do prepared for a long queue to get your meal during the prime weekend times that may be up to 40+ minutes to get your meal

The service was okay after that, not as attentive as they could've been and we had to ask for things a couple times but I understand as they were very packed. Everyone was still very kind regardless. We had the pork belly and boneless short ribs and they were good, nothing too special about it. Personally I think it was more on the expensive end for what it was. They were served with many sides and the cheesy corn was our personal favourite. Their other sides were also alright but again nothing too special. It was a very packed day so it was quite loud in the restaurant and we were almost yelling at each other from across the table, so if anyones looking for a more intimate spot, I'd go elsewhere. But again this is not their fault and is to be expected in larger popular places. It is a drinking spot too so that was the vibe they had with lots of chatter and fun bring had.

The table BBQ comes with egg, corn cheese, lettuce, 5 side dishes, and soybean stew (we found it too salty). Staff come around frequently if you have any requests/questions.
