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.
Taken together, reviews for Boom J's Cuisine describe strong, home-style Jamaican flavors and big portions, with some dishes like jerk chicken, roti, and curry goat earning praise while others fall short due to bland seasoning, overcooked rice, too sweet or underseasoned options, and inconsistent or slow service; overall the restaurant is seen as a solid option with energy and potential, though experiences vary from one visit to the next.
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.

I thought it was pretty good, but the fact they serve the chicken undercooked without knowing is very concerning. They didn't even apologize when I showed it them, like it was my fault or something. Ppl can get very sick & they don't seem worried at all when I showed him the raw chicken.
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.

Jerked chicken rotti is still my favorite here. Been coming here for 5 years & I have to say, quality is consistent! (Beware for those who are afraid of shards of bones in their meal... It's the hasard for ordering delicious $12 jerked chicken rotti)
J'ai opté pour le Jerk Chicken en format extra c'était très copieux mais le goût m'a déçu.. c'est bon mais je ne retrouve pas le goût du Jerk comme on le mange en Jamaïque. Ça reste néanmoins une bonne adresse 😊
I went to get food from this place about 45 minutes before they closed in February & I was not happy with the service AT ALL! I entered the restaurant & was pretyy tu much ignored for a few minutes & then I order a a small jerk chicken plate. I was made to feel like I was interrupting the closing routine & they seemed annoyed I was there. I waited about 15-minutes to get the plate & I saw them in the pack touching the Jerk Chicken with their bare hands, no gloves & I didn't see the wash their hands either. I was shocked so I took the food, paid & left but hand no intentions of eating it. I emailed the restaurant that night & this was almost 2 months ago letting them know what happened & still no reply. I guess I was "bothering" them by sending an email about the unsanitary habits of their employees putting their hands all over my food. Seriously do better & I am all for supporting small businesses but not if my concerns will be ignored.

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!
Jerk chicken, plantain & rice are amazing. The rum cake was good as well but a bit dry on the thick part of the cake. 5/5 for the price: Jamaican Patty, Large Jerk chicken (includes 2 legs) & a slice of cake for $35 taxes included!
This was my favourite place when I moved here 3 years ago but in the last year they have really succumbed to shrinkflation like many other restaurants. Food quality has gone down, serving size gone down, jerk chicken is not spiced, rice is dry, they only give one slice of plantain in a combo, & price has increased about 30-40% depending on the dish. I wouldn't mind the higher price point if the quality was still there. I miss the old Boom Js.
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 been ordering since before they were established price good. Services is going down a bit. Food is changing. After today I'm not sure I'll be re-ordering.
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 🤷♀️
