Was walking down Yonge street and was in town for Caribana so I figured why not give a Caribbean restaurant a chance. So glad I checked out Ritz.
Ritz has a lunch special from 11-3 where you can get the special of the day for 4.99, the line was out the door when I arrived, it was right before 3 so I guess everyone was trying to get in right before the special ended.
I was lucky enough to try a variety of things, the first being the jerk chicken. The jerk chicken was moist and flavorful with a nice kick without being overly spicy and was a quality portion for 4.99.
I also had the oxtail something that I would not normally try but I gave it a shot and it too was flavorful and delicious. Nice quality flavorful with decent size, I will say there was portion that were bony or grisly and and I don't know if that is normal with oxtail as I don't eat it often. The oxtail unfortunately is not an item on special but is still affordable for 8 dollars.
I also tried a beef patty, that was just okay, the beef itself was flavorful but it was a little too doughy.
All the meals come with a protein, rice and your choice of a salad or fried plantain.
Definitely worth a visit if you're on Yonge street.
