Boom J's Cuisine was established on April 2013 in Pointe – Saint - Charles 2026 Wellington Montreal Quebec, and has been voted the second best Caribbean Restaurant in Montreal! "Taste the difference", Boom Js offers the best Jamaican food jerk chicken cooked on an authentic drum imported from Kingston Jamaica. "We love it when people come here for the first time seeking new flavors." he says,"We're a unique restaurant and diners feel the true spirit of Jamaica in our cuisine, Our decor and Our service." Offering Jamaican staples like Jerk chicken, Curried goat, Oxtail, Roti Jamaican, King fish, Jamaican Patties, Coco bread, Ackee and Salt Fish and many more classic Island dishes.
Boom J's Cuisine shows bold jerk flavors and comforting Jamaican fare, with curry goat and rice and peas and oxtail delivering flavorful, tender results and generous portions, while beef roti and patties draw mixed feedback and one visit felt bland or overly salty. A standout is a jerk chicken poutine that some say changed the game, and the place tends toward a low key, takeout vibe with friendly staff and big portions for the price. Service can be hit or miss, with slow or unclear communication and occasional order mix ups, even as other reviews praise warmth and consistency. Overall the restaurant offers solid options and authentic vibes, with jerk chicken and oxtail often highlighted, though quality and experience can vary by day and dish.
Reading other reviews, I must have gone on an off day. We got oxtail, chicken roti & patties. Oxtail had two small hunks of meat & the rest was just fat. The gravy felt like it had just been sitting for a week. Pure salt. Rice felt microwaved. We plopped down over 50$ & ate like 6 bites. I'd like to give it a higher rating but we couldn't eat it. Even the patties seemed like I could buy them frozen & cook them better. Maybe it's seen better days?
Really good patties I have bought from them at twice & I have enjoyed it thoroughly each & every time, I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a place to eat patties in MTL

My first time going to Boom Js & I absolutely loved it. The girl that took my order was very nice & helpful. The food lived up to what I heard. I ordered a jerk chicken plate with 2 patties & a mango/passion fruit juice. The rice was tasteful, the jerk chicken was delicious. I also really enjoyed the juice. The plate had a very generous portion, enough for 2 to eat very well. I definitely would recommend to anyone that is craving an authentic Jamaican jerk chicken! Salute to the chef!!!
Atrocious food & service. The guy somehow thought I ordered "five fish" (I ordered fried fish), & got angry at me when he realized his mistake. Then an Ubereats worker came to pick up an order, & the same guy started yelling at him to "learn English". The food (oxtail plate & fried fish) was 90% bones. I also ordered some beef patties that another guy handled sloppily with his bare hands. I wish I'd just walked out & left my order on the counter.
Underwhelming experience We felt cheated on in the portions, among our large order, We asked for large oxtail platters in which to our surprise looks like the regular size. Two out if those platters had also barely any oxtail in it mainly potato & carrot. The pineapple chicken portions were good. The food taste wise was fine. Just wont be ordering back here for oxtail. Portion & taste wise for that Id rather go elsewhere. We also purchased beef patties, in which we enjoyed far more than the oxtail.
We got there late & everything was microwaved, tasted like last week's dinner. Patties are cafeteria grade, most likely store bought & the employee was pretty rude. Nothing to make me wanna give it a 2nd chance

I've always found quality inconsistent, sometimes the food's good, sometimes not at all (talking about rotis here). But my husband loves it & tends to forgive the mishaps over time. So for his bday we order via Uber. He is vegetarian & wanted to get a box of frozen veggie patties as well. Well, we received the beef ones & the guy over the phone told us to bring them back if we want to exchange. We live far, if we could just pop in we wouldn't Uber & pay delivery & service fees. Of course it's just not worth it to drive there late in the evening bc of something that's the resto's fault. What's funny, it's the 2nd time the exact thing happened. & on another occasion he got a fish roti instead of a veggie one (how? why?) We should have learned from it + food inconsistency before, guess we will now 🤷♀️
I'm hooked on their jerk chicken. I didn't believe chicken can taste this good. The plantain was sweet, but the riz had no taste & was dry. The chicken patties aren't good FYI.
Food was on point, service was a little average as I had repeat my order a few times (1 jerk chicken & 3 patties) & the person at the counter almost forgot 3/4 of my order until I reminded him.
