The food from this place is amazing. However, their service not so much. When we first walked in, I started my order with 2 doubles, and the lady left to go to the back to grab the hojaldres. Then she kept asking if that was all, and I said no, and I kept repeating mh full order of 3 more things. And she kept forgetting, and made my doubles. Then she went to get the roti from the back, and the saltfish pie from the front. Then she went to the back to make the carimañola. While she was in the back frying it, another lady asked me what my order was, so I told her my full order, and she went to the back to repeat my full order, which confused the other lady, because I think she thought I was making a new order. They finally figured out it was the same order, and I was rung up for my order. I paid, and then waited for the carimañola to be done. Finally we got our order. We ordered 2 doubles, dal puri roti, carimañola, and saltfish pie. Everything was still very hot when we opened up the bags at home. The doubles were very good loaded up with all the sauces of tamarind, a green sauce, and a red sauce. The dal puri roti was very soft and savory. It was huge! The carimañola had a good texture. Crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. The yuca was very good, but I feel like the meat filling needed a bit more flavor. The saltfish pie was very flakey, but the saltfish itself was very dry, and was in a spicy sauce. I feel like the flavors weren't that great. If you go I suggest you get the doubles, and try their curries with the roti. Everything was $14 for the 2 of us, so the price was very good. We were so full we didn't even finish everything. I just feel like if the staff had better organization they would definitely be a 5 star establishment. There needs to be someone in charge. I feel like they were all just running around figuring out what was going on. It wasn't that busy when we got food at 2pm. They were just very confused.

I went to Ali's roti this afternoon and ordered a shrimp curry with tamarind sauce on the side. It was a large portion and pretty flavorful. The tamarind sauce was my favorite part! The service was fast and the woman who took my order was very kind. I would go again and next time try their homemade ice cream for dessert

This is the first time I had roti, but it won't be the last. If you like curry, and have never had roti, I highly suggest you try Ali's Roti Shop. First, let me say when you go in you are welcomed with a smile. As some of the other reviews have said, the ladies in Ali's are welcoming and don't mind questions. For example, I thought roti was curry wrapped up like a burrito, but the menu says - chicken AND roti or beef AND roti. So hoping they would forgive my ignorance, I asked about this. (You can have yourcurry wrapped in roti like a large sandwich or separate is the answer by the way.) The portions are huge here!! So I suggest getting the roti on the side. Picking it up as a sandwich was yummy but messy. In fact, with the portions as large as this, I could have made several burrito like roti instead of just one huge one. The curry itself was slightly hot, according to my friend who was with me, who is Jamaican. His tolerance is higher than mine. I would say it is medium spicy lol. It was very tasty and filling and not so hot that I couldn't taste the spices and flavor. The curry spice is the star as are the big pieces of moist chicken. I also got a piece of carrot cake, which was moist and delicious with just the right amount of cream cheese icing. It was also a large portion. To drink, I got their pineapple ginger juice that they make there, and it was perfect- spicy and sweet. The place itself is very clean and homey. Overall, a great first experience with roti! Epic fail on pics as usual. Always forget to take til it is too late.

Went here for the first time, we love Caribbean food overall but there are so many different cultures & we're unfamiliar with Trini food. The waitress was very patient & helpful explaining the different dishes. My husband had the lunch special: fried swordfish, rice & beans & a salad. He enjoyed it but wish he would've gotten some kind of curry. I ordered 2 doubles, one was goat curry, the other was vegetarian wirh pumpkin, chickpeas & spinach: og my goodness, SO DELICIOUS!!! The atmosphere was very warm & friendly, it's a really small spot (seating for about 10-12 folks maybe) but you can taste the love in the food. We definitely plan to return to try more dishes when were on this side of town.

Came by for some Trinidadian food in a road trip in Florida. The shop is casual and located in a small strip mall. There's parking in the front and very ample parking in the back as well. The staff were extremely friendly and food came out lightening fast. We got two doubles which were a delicious mess of chickpeas and roti. They were generous with the filling and gave us a healthy splash of their hot chili sauce as well. The beef pie was good but not as differentiated and a bit skimpy on meat filling, but the doubles really stole the show. Interior has some seating but is mostly take and go. Prices are very affordable for the portion sizes.

Great shop to get a taste of Caribbean cuisine! Pretty much everything you can order here is finger-licking tasty lolWatch out for that spice though! It sure packs a punch!! I usually order to go as there's limited seating and parking. The Doubles are likely my favorite thing to order here, with the spicy tamarind sauce, it's a must for me!! The Pholourie was good but personally , thought they can be a bit like an oil sponge - sauce is drinkable it's so good!! I wish they had more locations available for example in different areas of Florida, and if it were the case It Jets likely have a cult following lol

Stopped by just at closing time and they still welcomed me in. The staff and atmosphere was inviting and laid back. I got a chicken roti and it did not disappoint. Would definitely try them again to check out their other items in the menu.
