Ordered some jerk pork and chicken. Pretty standard affair. The employee was kind enough to add some jerk sauce on top, but it was very thick… like a gravy! That caught me by surprise. The rice and beans, while decent, were not worth the 4 $ per container. The chicken itself was pretty good! Big, meaty, flavourful pieces. The jerk pork… hit or miss. Some pieces were a bit dry, but I guess it can’t be helped when making jerk pork! I recommend going next door to Babu if you want to get more for your money, but if caribbean food is what you want, you’ll be hard pressed to find another option within your travel radius. Patties here… haven’t tried for some time! I remember they were OK.

Not the best looking cake but the taste definitely makes up for what it lacks for in presentation. Tiramisu was soft and moist, with a hint of coffee flavour and not overly sweet. Also enjoy a jerk pork sandwich while picking up a cake. Definitely taste the jerk spice but not as spicy as others.

This location is much more convenient for me. Hubby and I usually get patties and coco buns from here for lunch or afternoon snack. Reliably good quality beef patties. We haven’t yet tried other items they have here. Overall, will be back again for more beef patties

I’ve come here religiously over four years just for the patties. There’s just something about them that tastes SO good. An inexpensive, flaky pastry that satisfies your patty craving — what more could you ask for? I’ve bought them fresh and I’ve bought them frozen, both taste amazing. If you’ve only ever had frozen store bought patties, you’re missing out.

I’ve eaten boxes and boxes and boxes of patties from George’s. This location is way more convenient for me than the Denison location and the patties are on par. I like the spicy version and the chicken curry version but YMMV depending on what you like. The pastry is outstanding even after microwaving from frozen. The Goat Curry has been my lunch standby at the Denison location for years and it is equally good here but the takeout amount is significantly smaller than the dine in quantity at Denison. There is no dine in option here so it is what it is and convenience wins. The Goat Curry is not always available at this location and the Jerk Chicken is the fall back position. I’ll be back.

The patties are exactly what I wanted so no complaints but nothing to brag over. Filling = decent. Crust & shell = flaky & substantial.

Great Taste! best oxtail in the area, but is pricey, not so sure it’s worth it, since the portions are kinda small for me.

This is the first time that I’ve been to any George’s Tastee patties. We ordered 3 different patties wt coco buns and the jerk chicken. To be quite honest, it wasn’t fresh and tasteful. The patties are not very flavorful. The jerk chicken came with rice and beans, which the rice was cooked with way too much water. If you want really good authentic Jamaican/Caribbean food, definitely go to «Jerk Chicken» on Hwy 7.

Still some great patties! I thought it to be a stark contrast between this location and the one on Denison. Of course, the time of day plays a factor when determining the freshness of the food. I went to George’s Tastee Patties in the afternoon hounding for a late lunch. Being that I loved the other location on Denison, I stopped in here for jerk pork on rice and was able to try some of my friend’s oxtail as well. The Jerk Pork(5.99)was a bit dry and definitely not as moist as it should be. The jerk rub that was used was still tasty and the spice definitely came through. The portion size of the rice and the meat was a heaping helpful and definitely wasn’t the issue with this place at all. I thought the Oxtail(6.99) was very gelatinous and not all that meaty. The gravy that they used was so thick and overbearing that it really masked the real flavor of the oxtail. But again, the meat was tender and the portion size was hefty. The patties here are delightful and it’s a challenge just to avoid eating several of these in one sitting. This location is rather small and doesn’t have any seating, though they do have countertops readily available. There are boxes of these patties waiting to be eaten by the masses, so I will definitely come back and grab one.

Love this place. Ever since I got back from Montego Bay last month have been frequenting this place once a week for their beef patties and jerk meats. It may not be the exact same thing in Jamaica but it comes very close! They also have frozen beef patties in the dozens to bring home for the long run that are as fresh as the moment they’re made! The place smells and reminds me of Jamaica, another plus! Cash or debit only. Go here for your Jamaican fix! Ya mon!

They are yummy… The spicy version is not very spicy. I pick up a box every now and then. Just heat them in the toaster.

When reheated overnight leftover from George’s Tastee tasted as good as when I ate it fresh! Jerk Pork has a nice proportion of fat and lean meat. though not the most healthy selections. but that gives me a sense of guilty pleasure when I feel all the fatty meat in my mouth… Jerk Chicken is a little boring by comparison. But good dark meat. still nice and moist… Now what should I do next time when I order? Pork Fat? or Chicken Lean? The rice too are cooked with good texture. fluffy… chewy and soft at the same time, and drowned in gravy! 2nd meal is 50% off. so maybe I just get both each from now on? No seatings at all… definitely a take out joint! And they also serves burgers and fries till 3 pm for the lunch crowds!
