P Jay's Jamaican Take-Out

Note: Cash only. No seats available, takeout only. Food was incredible and fairly priced, 5/5. Tried the jerk chicken and oxtail, both were absolutely amazing. Oxtail was fall off the bone. Jerk chicken was juicy and deeply flavourful - the best jerk chicken I’ve tried so far. Rice had nicely soaked up the gravy, very rich and deep flavours. Visiting however is quite inconvenient. I recommend going in the middle of the day for lunch. Have tried previously visiting closer to end of day (1 hour before closing) but they had already ran out of jerk chicken. Also, payment accepted is cash and there are no ATMs nearby.

This little gem is tucked away in Southlawn Plaza. If you want authentic Jamaican curry goat......this is definitely the go to spot. I've been coming here for about a year and it has consistently been good. The rice and peas can be a little overcooked but the flavour is on point. The curry goat is flavourful and tender and hits the spot each time. It's definitely a must try

Curry goat never fails me. Always hot, tender and tasty. Patties are great as well. If you’re looking for satisfying Jamaican takeout, then this is your place. Don’t expect anything fancy when you walk through the door. The kitchen is where all the fancy stuff takes place. There is no dine in space. The store front has no visual appeal, aesthetically speaking, but it is clean. The person taking my order is always pleasant and polite.

We came by P Jays Take-Out last week-end and we were thrilled by the variety of authentic dishes offered and we were very satisfied with our order. We had a small Jerk Chicken, Curry Goat and Cow Foot dinner, a small Peas Stew and a couple of Beef Patties. Overall, the food was flavorful and well-cooked. Perhaps, a little less spicy than other places but, that was just fine for us. Also, the small dinner portions were quite filling with a good amount of meat so, we think that the value was reasonable. The service was very friendly and it didn’t take long to get our order ready.

The goat was really good, great price and and taste. They give a lot of pieces too, only complaint is a few pieces were straight bones but 5 stars otherwise. Beef Patty is decent (not the best I ever heard but good and seems homemade) Will need to try to jerk chicken next time.

Chicken fricasse was good but too many bones in all the pieces I got so not much meat. Rice and peas and patties were pretty good too.
