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.
I ordered from this place for my 40th birthday, expecting an amazing meal, especially since we drove over an hour to get there. Unfortunately, the experience was quite disappointing. The rice tasted like it had been microwaved, the plantains were bland, & while the jerk chicken was decent, it had a lot of bones. The vegetables were fine, but overall the quality did not match our expectations, especially for such a large order.
I used to come here in the past & always enjoyed the food, which makes this even more disappointing. Sadly, based on this experience, I wouldn't recommend it anymore, as it didn't feel worth the price.
The food is great but the service needs improvement. Went today to pickup my Uber Eats order & it was closed. Emergencies happen but at least update the hours & turn off the options to order through Uber/Doordash etc.
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 !!
Just discovered this place , absolutely love it!!!! Highly recommend. Has to be one of the best spots in the city if you want an excellent & comforting meal. 5 stars & beyond.
Little resto, mostly takeout. Although we did dine in a little bar they have. Food is so tasty & great portions. Low-key restaurant, with great food. We loved it.
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?

Food was very good but the service was very very disappointing. The cashier was barely communicating with us, messed up the order & then when the food was ready instead of communicating that she just knocked on the glass for us to come get it inside. Very disappointing since we like Boom Js a lot… would not recommend going to order or eat there.
I am the whitest person ever so take my review with a grain of salt. I enjoyed the ox tail, sauce was super flavourful & the meat was tender. I had to wait a bit inside before someone helped me but they were friendly so not a big deal. Portions sizes are big as well for the price.
