In 2002 I lived near King and Dufferin, and I didn’t have a full kitchen. I ate the exact same meal at Island Foods constantly- sometimes 7 days a week. Boneless chicken dinner with an extra of Channa and spinach, and a plain roti with chicken gravy. That location eventually closed. But I always considered it the very best Roti spot in town. Much to my surprise, I was working in the East end and discovered that they have a Don Mills location. I just finished eating my original order (they were out of spinach so I tried the eggplant) and believe it or not, nearly 20 years later, it tastes exactly the same. It’s the same family, and they definitely have preserved the original recipes. Amazing!!!

Have been following this family around the city, from their days in Village by the Grange, to Mount Pleasant and now Don Mills. Best roti for me - in fact wont eat any others now! They care about the quality of the food they prepare and sell, and want their customers to enjoy. Thank you all for continuing to serve such good food.

Most arrogant worst service. Only 3 people working there. Young lady in the front is very polite and friendly. However, the female Chef" also stands in the front and didn't even Crack a smile or say hello. Appeared extremely arrogant and was watching the young girl like a hawk. I seriously had second thoughts about making a u turn out of there after seeing the chef's demeanor and expression. I didn't feel that they valued or respected my business. I thought the food would be worth it

Used to order from here all the time but the last time the majority of the roti was all bread with hardly any filling. This place is getting cheap.

This place has some of the best Caribbean food I have ever had. Great Trini and Jamaican dishes. Best Jamaican patty and double I have ever gotten that wasn’t homemade. The chicken roti was also very good. Highly recommend. The staff was extremely friendly as well and new a lot of the customers. I will definitely be going back.

I went to grab some take out for lunch. Busy but not crazy. The place was very clean. Staff were friendly and fast. Food was yum. If you like spice, ask for hot and it had good flavour.

I recently ordered an oxtail meal with spinach and steamed vegetables from your establishment through SkipTheDish on Monday, 17th April. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the quality of the meal as it arrived swimming in what appeared to be oil or water (picture attached below).While I understand that mistakes can happen, I was working from home and thankfully had alternative food to prepare. However, this experience has left a sour taste in my mouth, and I am hesitant to support your establishment again.As a new resident in the area, I was excited to try out some great Caribbean food. However, I was let down by the presentation and packaging of the meal. I implore you to take more pride in packaging your meals when sending them out to the public.Overall, I hope that this review serves as constructive feedback for your establishment. While my experience was disappointing, I am willing to give your establishment another chance in the future if improvements are made.

Literally the best roti hands down! I used to work down the street from the location on King Street which closed down. This was a family staple for me from going to the CNE and Caribana. Then when I started working in the area at least twice a month I would get roti for lunch. We had the pleasure of getting a roti recently and was not disappointed. My roti was a boneless curry chicken roti with slight pepper. I get this in a container with gravy on top and pepper on top as well. When I tell you this roti was full of flavor! It had the juiciest chicken and the right amount of aloo (potato) inside. I have tried several roti shops in Peel region and none of them come close to Island Foods. It's the most authentic West Indian roti shop in my opinion. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting a good quality roti. Side note, their patties are amazing as well! The pictures I took do not do it justice. My roti is in the container which I eat with knife and fork as it's covered in gravy. The roti that was cut is one that comes wrapped. You could just open the paper and bite into it however it was for a child so I cut it in 4 so it's easier to hold and eat.

This is my second time coming here and both times the food was great! I ordered the curry chicken breast dinner and it was really tasty and flavourful with the perfect amount of sauce.
