My new favorite food - doubles! I see what the hype is about and I'll be buying a few doubles to…read moretake home next time. The shop is steady busy with takeout orders and the occasional folks (like me) who wanted to sit and enjoy my first doubles there. They only have two tables and chairs. Most people order to go. You may order at the kiosk and wait for your number to be called when it is ready to pick up. The kiosk is good because it easily shows all the sauces you may add to your doubles and the variety of other things like drinks, etc you may order. There is also the option to get in line and place your oder. You can watch the assembly line of workers quickly making food. Then check out with the cashier. They sell lots of different cakes, breads, nuts, and drinks too. I was a little overwhelmed on what to order, but a nice employee helped me out. I showed him what I was trying to order and asked for suggestions. Thanks to him I had the best doubles! Added tamarind sauce, mango chutney, and the benny sauce. The perfect vegetarian meal for $2.50! It is made of roti (flatbread), curried chickpeas, and topped with the sauces. Then rolled up to make a sandwich. So flavorful! I wasn't too sure which drink to get as I wasn't sure what they all tasted like. Chose the Seamoss drink, which is a mix of milk, seams, nutmeg, and some spices. Milky and not overly sweet. This was good. Maybe next time I'll get sorrel, which is hibiscus. They said the peanut drink is good too. Ordered Pholourie with tamarind sauce. These are fried savory dough balls. I couldn't resist getting a sweet treat. So, I randomly picked the salara bread, which looks like a cinnamon swirl bread slice. It is actually stuffed with shredded coconut that is colored red and tastes like cherry. Pretty good and not overly sweet. Definitely add this place to your list of eats in Queens. It is a trek from the city, but so good! Also, nice that it is a little bit away from the loud busy part of Liberty Ave in Richmond Hill. This is about a 15-20 min walk from there on Lefferts Blvd. Restroom available.

If you're craving authentic Trinidadian food, Trinciti Roti Shop is a must-visit. The curry goat…read morewas outstanding--tender, juicy, and packed with rich Caribbean spices. Every bite was full of flavor, and the meat practically fell off the bone. The doubles were just as impressive. The bara was soft and fresh, the channa was perfectly seasoned, and the tamarind and pepper sauces brought everything together with the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the flavors taste just like homemade Trini cooking. Whether you're a longtime fan of Trinidadian cuisine or trying it for the first time, Trinciti delivers every time. Highly recommended!

The staff and people there can be hit and miss. Sometimes, they give you attitude when you ask for something. I usually get the doubles with archar, tamarind, and hot sauce. The one thing I don't like is that they use the same spoon to dip all the condiments. A few times, I bought extra for the week, and the food went bad before the second day. One time, the double smelled like hot garbage, and I think it was because the cucumber relish had gone bad. I do like the doubles but I have to go a certain and only order a small amount to prevent it from going bad.

"Real deal Trinidadian"…read more No seats, no bs, no tourists. Everyone is a local here. Come here only if you got the guts. This is likely rhetorical most authentic roti Caribbean style in NYC. What's to cheer - Super authentic and tasty - Get the doubles - this is the full Punic with chickpeas, dough, cucumber, tamarind and more - Goat: also a winner. This thing is a weighted blanket made of curry. The roti is flaky and stretchy in that perfect, slightly messy way. - So much food for your dollar What's to jeer - Not really a place to sit and eat, even nearby - This is heavy heavy food.

If you eat the house special for memories of home, ok- I get it. For everybody else? You can do better, c'mon. The fried rice, lo mein and chow mein had identical flavor. I say this won't fly because in NYC (or even crown heights Brooklyn) you don't have an excuse. You can walk a few blocks in any direction, find a Chinese restaurant serving Americanized versions of fried rice, lo mein and chow mein, but they will be cooked better, they will taste better than the house special. I'm not saying go to Flushing etc. I'm saying even the local Chinese spots in crown heights make better versions.

I tried the BBQ chicken dinner special which came with fried rice, chow mein, and potato salad. This dish brought back such nostalgic memories of my childhood in Trinidad-LOVED every part! The BBQ chicken was well seasoned and the sauce was sweet and tangy. The chow mein was fresh and well cooked and the fried rice and potato salad were an excellent addition. My boyfriend loved the doubles with everything We also picked up some currants roll, pone, and an iced cold peardrax drink!

He is passionate about what he does and it translates into the dishes he serves at his restaurant. Starting off with drinks, I didn't know I needed the Chow for Now in my life. The cilantro infused simple syrup really evaluated the drink. I'm excited to come back and explore other cocktails on the menu. Knowing that the drinks were this good, I had very high hopes for the food and it didn't disappoint.

I was happy to see they still had $5 meal specials available ( its small but back then it was enough). Prices of regular dinners are still fair compared to competitors. The food however while fresh and hot lacked the normal amount of seasonings I remembered. I was especially disappointed by the macaroni pie. We got 3 large dinners and a Peanut Punch $47 . The amount of food was justified for the price. Just wish a bit more salt was present. Our dinners had yellow rice, oven barbecue chicken, red beans, callaloo and macaroni pie . My mother in law said the salt levels were perfect for her high blood pressure dietary needs. So I guess I'll go get her food from there again. Its take out only here and the shop is small and often crowded. The Peanut Punch was great, not overly sweet and the server made it fresh when I ordered it. Service is good but slow . Cash is preferred ( there's a 4% charge for card) ATM available in the shop.

Everything his behind a glass window and all there food are hidden underneath a lid so I can't really see what good food they have. Either case, it didn't matter because I really came here for their double so that's exactly what I ordered. Asked them to add everything on it including the heat. My double came out to $2.72 (w/tax) and when I went to eat it, I wasn't impressed. Visually, it's a lot smaller then that doubles that I get at other Trini restaurants. The dough was not chewy with a good pull and the chickpeas was still hard. It wasn't cooked enough and the flavor was lacking. As for the topping, it was weak. No graded cucumbers either. Since I was left feeling disappointed from my meal, I can't see myself coming back here to try their other dishes. It's too bad considering my doctor's office is close by.
