This restaurant is obviously a staple in the community as Marie greeted and knew everyone who entered. Her pleasant personality was probably even better than the food, but only slightly. It was a pleasure finding this gem and I'll definitely be back. I'll try to show the actually food next time but no promises, you'll just have to stop by and see for yourself.

I ordered a large oxtail and jerked chicken. Both orders came with plantains, vegetable as well as rice and peas. The jerked chicken was delicious and with plenty of heat. My oxtail was delicious and a good sized portion. Sides were absolutely perfect. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommended.

And their coconut cake?! Absolutely unreal. Moist, rich, perfectly sweet truly the best I've ever had. Get it while it's in stock.

Stopped by this roti spot after seeing that they advertised doubles and salt and bake -- I went in…read morespecifically excited to try the salt and bake. Unfortunately, they were out when I arrived, which was a bit of a letdown since that was the main reason for my visit. That said, I pivoted and ordered a double instead, and it turned out to be a solid choice. The double was flavorful, especially with the added peppers, and everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned. At just $3, it's hard to argue with the value -- a very fair price for a quick, satisfying bite. Overall, the food itself was good and definitely scratched the Caribbean street-food itch. The ambiance was standard and clean. My only real disappointment was the lack of salt and bake, since it's something I was genuinely looking forward to trying. Still, if you're in the area and craving an affordable, tasty double, this spot delivers. I'll likely give it another shot in hopes of catching the full menu next time.

When my favorite Roti shop went out of business shortly after Covid, I could not find a place to…read moreget my Roti and Doubles from until Down D Island Roti shop opened. Food is always fresh.

They do have limited seating inside but I have always done takeout.

The food is OK I have had better but if you're looking for something quick and delicious it is a good stop.

I will say I got some pieces that were likely skin and a lil chewy but the pieces that were tender and falling off the bone were a DREAM. I got rice and peas and greens with is. I did get some gravy on top of the rice, which I always do, but I'm not gonna lie, it would've been good without it too. The service was quick and welcoming. If you've never experienced Caribbean people, you may think they're a little forward, but coming from a Caribbean household I felt veery welcome and comfortable. The inside is very authentic, not crazy fancy but they work with what they have and I respect that. Regardless, it's a great spot to get food, and I will be coming back very soon! Also! The festival/fried dumplings/ johnny cake... whatever it's called in Jamaica was BOMB. Go ahead and dip that in your gravy if you get it as a side.
