Mr Jerk

Grew up on their Jerk Pork sandwich, absolutely fantastic. Moist, flavourful and the perfect char for the extra bit of crisp and flavour. The coconut bread is extremely fragrant and compliments the savory jerk pork perfectly. The hot sauce is great as well.
The Jerk chicken is quite good as well, but not as good as the pork and can be slightly dry depending on the day.
The staff have all been there since I can remember, definitely over 10 years. The lady is fantastic and gives better portions than the guy.

Hmmmmmm yummy. I prefer a more saucy coleslaw but it was good nonetheless. Excellent meal.

Had the jerk chicken lunch special. Chicken was extremely dry. Rice and peas was dry. Plantain was all mushy. Was charged $ 0.50 for using credit card. Cost me $ 10.00 with plantain. Ended up not eating the rest of it. It is a takeout place, so very tight spot. wouldn’t recommend the place.

Tiny joint, great for takeout. Love their hot sauce and ox tail gravy. Way better than some of those new jerk restaurants.

Came in. Really small space. If more people came in, it’d be interesting trying to have two way traffic in and out of this place, because it’s a take-​out counter-​esque hole-​in-​the-​wall joint.
Met a couple who frequent this restaurant (they said it was their favorite takeout place. They recommend everything). They seemed super-​friendly with the lady at the counter. Turns out the lady at the counter is super friendly even if you aren’t a regular. She was really nice to me. I asked if I could get half a pound of the jerk pork. They sell it at $ 11/​pound. She managed to get me exactly half a pound on her first try. Kudos to her.
Had: Only the jerk pork. I’m Chinese. I believe everything that was meant to be hot should be served scalding hot. This was warm. When I reheat my leftovers, I’m hoping they’ll be better than when I had it today. That being said, it did not suck. I’m no expert on anything jerk related (food-​wise). I like it, but I can’t handle a lot of heat (spicy kind). This wasn’t too spicy for me. That was nice. My pork was on the lean side. I saw some fattier pieces, but the chunk she chopped up for me was the chunk the previous couple had asked for, and they had specifically asked for something leaner. *sad*
Nice spices though. Aromatic.

Great pork. Best ive had to date. Not the best place for a roti but they do put a lot of meat into it. The girl that works there is super nice. Id recommend the combination dinner, pork for sure and depending on what you like another meat.

The jerk pork is well spiced with just the right amount of char. The meat is moist and juicy with lots of great jerk flavour. The bean rice is a little soft but that could be because of the extra ox-​tail gravy I asked for. It makes the tastier. The homemade hot sauce is also a must try.
There is no seating, so take out only… But definetly worth a try if you like Jamaican style jerk.

It’s fast, affordable and hits the spot. They always put a generous amount of sauce on your rice and beans. The jerk chicken is great (though it’s been dry from time to time). The roti is also delicious.

This Mr Jerk here is located at Peanut Plaza on the outside of the plaza near the Beer Store. These places are always so tiny with this one being no exception. The girl at the counter was super excited and friendly. She was singing songs and was having a great time whipping up the food. The menu offers up jerk chicken and jerk pork with some additional items like goat, patties, and rice. Prices are very cheap and don’t expect a place to sit down.
I was going to get the jerk chicken dinner, but I opted for the jerk pork sandwich because they had it on special for $ 5 and change and comes with a pop. The sandwich is their jerk pork wrapped inside their coco bread served with coleslaw and hot sauce. The jerk pork was oh so tender and juicy. Jerk chicken here can be a bit dry so opting with the pork is the ideal plan here. The pork has this wonderful little bark too which I love about the meat. The coco bread was soft but a bit cold as I think it was sitting there for a bit. The coleslaw was sweet and crunchy and blends well with the hot sauce to add the right kick to the sandwich.
I always find that parking at the Peanut Plaza can always be such a pain so just be on the lookout. The place itself is strictly for takeout and only takes cash and debit. The place is open a bit later than many other places, but as with most, the earlier the better.

Hole in the wall. Pick up your food. Amazing portion. Great Food. Discovered this place during my college years and still frequently visit it during their lunch special.

Dependable take out joint for serviceable jerk chicken. I ordered white meat and received a decent portion for the price. Chicken was moist and well seasoned with a good amount of heat. I asked for gravy on the side and was given a few tablespoons of oxtail gravy which tasted a tad bland and reminded me of Bisto. Against my better judgement I ordered a side of plantains 3 slices for $ 1.00 which is way overpriced for what you get considering plantains are not expensive. Don’t waste your time ordering them – they were dried out and were probably not ripe to begin with. Overall decent but nothing spectacular.

This is the location where it all began, apparently. The famous jerk takeout is a hole in the wall and certainly not for everyone. If you can endure waiting a really long time during peak hours inside a cramped space heated to sauna temperatures by steam trays, then you are a real Jerk.fan. The Jerk Chicken lunch special comes with rice and beans, coleslaw and gravy. The gravy is just as important as the chicken and don’t you forget it! The blackened chicken is fall of the bone tender and moist like you wouldn’t believe. Maybe I’m going deaf, maybe I’m going blind or maybe I’m simply out of my mind but this long-​time patron feels like quality of Mr. Jerk is starting to slip just a bit. Even so, where the heck are you gonna curb a mammoth-​scale huger with moderately tasty and marginally nutritious food for under a $ 7 these days?

This place makes me feel claustrophobic, it is a simple get-​in & get-​out deal.
No place to sit, and if you take more than a minute to decide your orders, you might just cause a line, which could get very uncomfortable.
I wanted jerk chicken, and jerk chicken I got. The portion is actually a leg with drum stick, plus a little bit of another leg served on rice & peas. That is actually the most generous portion I’ve been served in any jerk place.
The lady who served me was the most chill and friendly person who’s ever jerked me. HEH…
The chicken is decent, and they’re not cheap with what they give you, so I guess it’s worth the money. It’s been around for a long ass time, which means they’re doing right by their customers. I’m not an aficionado with Jamaican food, and I always thought that there should be more selection instead of just having rice & peas.
Most Caribbean Islands don’t eat rice & peas, I know they certainly don’t in Trinidad & Tobago.
They are good enough to keep any other similar restaurants from opening in the area, which means they’ll be able to retain me as a regular.

Pretty standard jerk place. Nothing too special, but not bad at all. Very decent pricing as well.
Curry goat is deliciously fatty.

Great little hidden gem! The jerk pork mix with their source are fatty with a hint of their spice. The 8 dollar dinner is a bit pricy but it’s worth it. If not you can try their jerk sandwich for 5 bucks. The downside is that the place is small and often understaff and a line is form.

Being in the area and hearing rave reviews of Mr. Jerk, I walked into a very cramped store. Ordered the lunch special and was nickel and dimed for forks, plastic bag and I am sure if that guy could of charged for napkins.
I prefer Tastee Bread up the street as they have seating and they include a soda with their specials and do not charge extra (also clean environment)

The best jerk pork around!
(Having said that, we much prefer the roti from Roti Boys at Sheppard and Pharmacy.)

What an honor that I get to write the first review of Mr. Jerk at Don Mills. Only logical reason is that the people who eat here don’t Unilocal at all because there is no way they are complaining about the food.
I wouldn’t have believed that such a small and obscure little shop could serve up one of the best grilled chicken and pork dishes in the GTA. Every visit is a treat and I always end up stuffed and happy after every meal.
A few reasons to love Mr. Jerk
–great flavor
–great prices (chicken and pork combo for 10 $ that’s good enough for 2 people)
–great sides (plantains, coleslaw, and chili all mesh well together)
–large servings
–gravy and rice are awesome
I always order take-​out and the worst part of the experience is the drive home hungry while the aroma of the grilled chicken fills the car.
