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.
Roti tasted like chicken broth only... I wish there had been more curry flavour, spices or heat, but it was pretty bland. The meat was good though & cheap.
Very shit service it's sad how they make mistakes with your order & when you call back they laugh at you & say it's refined the payment then your asking your self how ? They laugh at you then they speak there own language while you on the phone so you can't understand what there saying then you message the owner on Facebook no answer back sad 66$ into the trash how is this place still open while scamming people like this & the goat was so salty omg was not able to eat it & the roti chicken looked like a whole chicken cooked they just peeled apart like come on ! What pissed me off is that the can't deal with there mistakes !!
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?
I love this place. The Jerk Chicken served with rice, beans, homemade cole slaw, fried sweet plantain & their spicy hot sauce is my favorite. I have also had the Roti Wrap & it too is amazing. Fantastic homecooking! Staff are kind & helpful.

Had their goat roti & oxtail with rice & peas meals. I'm Caribbean. This food might look ok but it is NOT what traditional goat roti & oxtails with rice & peas taste like. Period. 1. When cooked, oxtails should not be red in color. Seems as if you used a tomato based recipe. & it tasted nothing like traditional Jamaican oxtails meal. 2. Goat roti… where's the curry taste!?!? I'm sorry but I will never eat from here again.
Ordered chicken roti & veggie patty 3x from uber eats. 5 stars each time. My suggestion is to add rice & peas as a side dish to your menu. If its already there it needs to be easier to find or it needs to be suggested before I check out. Thanks Boom J!

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 used to love this place. Anytime we've ordered over the last few years they get at least one thing wrong (as in not what we ordered). The roti is super inconsistent; today it was awful, last time it wasn't what I ordered & I couldn't eat it. There are way better & more consistent options in town. Sorry J, no more chances.
The jerk sauce is delicious. The Roti are really good, although the English translation is not Roasted lol. Plantain A+, Rice B-. Solid Caribbean food!
