Plusieurs avis décrivent Lloydie's comme un lieu prisé pour une cuisine caribéenne qui mélange habilement des touches Bajans et jamaïcaines, avec des portions généreuses et une ambiance vive et rétro. Les patties et le jerk chicken reviennent le plus souvent en tête, la patty jamaïcaine étant citée comme l'une des meilleures en ville et le plat de jerk chicken comme authentique, tandis que l'oxtail et la poutine plantain font l'unanimité chez les amateurs de saveurs épicées. Le rapport qualité-prix est régulièrement salué, et le service, quand il est à la hauteur, est chaleureux dans une atmosphère accueillante. Des remarques portent sur une offre de boissons limitée et sur des contraintes de menu, comme l'impossibilité de combiner poutine plantain et porc, voire l'absence de stock pour l'oxtail certains jours. Certaines critiques évoquent des expériences de service variables et des plats qui pourraient gagner en épices selon les goûts, mais dans l'ensemble Lloydie's est perçu comme une adresse fiable pour des plats caribéens consistants et conviviaux, avec des favoris qui reviennent régulièrement.
I ordered the jerk chicken, with brown rice & peas, & plantain. The chicken was done well, with a little kick to it, but not too much. The plantain was cooked well & not dried out. The rice was good but missing gravy which makes a big difference. Make sure to ask for gravy! Other than that, the price was very good.
I ordered the Jerk Chicken plate. It costs 15$ & it's very good value for money, you get a good amount of food. Chicken is fresh & tasty (could use a bit more spice). Rice is very good & plantains were great too. I also ordered side of mac & cheese which was alright (5$). Service was exceptional. The atmosphere is also really cool & retro.
I would recommend Lloydie's to anyone on the lookout for a hearty Caribbean style meal. I will definitely return soon to try the Jerk Chicken Poutine.
Honestly pretty good. The jamaican patties were definitely a bit too dry in my opinion & they didn't have any oxtail on the menu which I really wanted to try but the pork jerk was good as well as the beans & rice & plantin !
I see why there is not a lot of Tik tok reviews on this place. Order the jerk chicken & it was just bake chicken no spice at all & it tasted old like it was made the day before . & I grew up eating leftovers wasn't happy about that. Rice was good . Got Mac pic again made days again hard noodles the top was so hard I couldn't even eat it . They need to do better .

Cute little spot for Caribbean food, tried the jerk chicken & it was really good, loved the rice too. Patties are also great & prices are really affordable with big portions.
Had a chance to try Lloydies as it was recommended by a friend. Got myself a patty, jerk meal & a side of fried chicken with the peppa sauce & coconut coleslaw. Patty was a bit dry, but still not bad. The fried chicken was a bit bland, I would probably pass on it. The jerk chicken was flavourful & moist, probably best part of the meal! Rice & peas was decent too. Coconut coleslaw was okay, I prefer creamy coleslaw & the peppa sauce was pretty good. Overall, I was comparing the Montreal jerk chicken to Toronto jerk chicken, & I have to say, Toronto wins, but Montreal is still good! Would recommend the jerk chicken for sure!
4.7⭐️ I absolument love this place. Jamaican patties are okay but I save my appetite for the plates. Best Jerk chicken I've ever encountered. Spiced right & cooked to perfection. I tend to order an extra side of chicken. The oxtail is amazing. Most places will have little lean meat & mostly fatty & bone but not Lloydies! Don't forget to mix your slaw in w/ the lentil rice. Portions per serving are quite generous. The restaurant is very clean & orderly. Highly recommend treating yourself to this eatery.

Jerk chicken & pork very good! Rice & beans could use more beans. Plantin needs to be sliced thinner. Can't wait to try fried chicken. Welcoming staff 😍
Good portions, the coleslaw was very good & refreshing & the ox tail had the perfect fatty & meaty ratio. The rice & the sauce were good but i was waiting for a punch of flavours...there was a missing fragrance or herbs in the recipe.
Pros : Decent amount of oxtail for 20$. Meat was tender & juicy. Plantain out of this world! Food was ready really fast. Bajan fried chicken is good!!!
Cons :on the oxtail plate, there was a lot of gravy so I was happy at first but when I tasted, it was bland..like no real taste. I found it had instead some sort of bbq flavor. Husband had the jerk chicken & made the same comment. Also, it Wasnt the regular rice & peas im used to..I wanted some all spice & nutmeg flavor which (In my taste) was missing unfortunately. But it seems really popular so good for the owners!!! Also nice decor!! but Ill stick to my usual spots in NDG & Lasalle for oxtail & jerk.
