Jamaica House, a cherished gem located at 2541 Finch Ave W in North York, Ontario, is a must-visit destination for anyone craving authentic Jamaican cuisine. Renowned for its exceptional curry goat, patrons rave about its consistent quality, with one customer declaring it "the best curry goat" they've ever tasted—a sentiment echoed across various reviews over the past two decades. The menu offers delightful options, such as the tender stew beef, accompanied by perfectly cooked rice and peas, and topped with a refreshing cabbage slaw. The dishes are rich in flavor, showcasing the culinary prowess and dedication to authenticity that Jamaica House embodies. Of particular note are the daily special items; the cow foot served on Fridays and stew peas on Thursdays have received high praise but are known to sell out quickly, indicating their popularity. Beyond the delicious food, customers appreciate the friendly and welcoming service that enhances the dining experience. As one reviewer noted, the pride in both the cuisine and the hospitality shines through, making every visit a memorable one. With a cash-only policy and an on-site ATM, Jamaica House stands as a testimony to genuine Jamaican flavors and an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. Don’t miss this culinary treasure; it’s worth the trip!

If you want good curry goat this is the GO TO spot..they also was great cow foot, but it is only served on Fridays..go early cause it runs out fast. The stew peas (no pork) which only served on Thursday also good ..it is also cash only but there is a ATM machine located inside the store.

This stew beef dish is absolutely incredible! The beef is tender and richly seasoned, cooked down in a flavorful, deeply satisfying gravy that hits all the right notes. The rice and peas underneath are perfectly done, fluffy and full of subtle coconut flavor, soaking up every drop of that delicious sauce. The fresh cabbage slaw on top adds a bright, crunchy contrast that balances the dish beautifully. What truly elevated the experience was the outstanding customer service—friendly, prompt, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell there’s pride in both the food and the hospitality. A flawless experience from start to finish—I’ll definitely be back!

I came here for one reason only and that was for their CURRY GOAT. This restaurant by far has the best curry goat and white rice in Toronto. I will definitely recommend this place.
