| - Was really excited to try this place! I give Patois for 2 great ambiance, but unimpressive food.
First of all, if you're coming for dinner, make sure to get a reservation! Place was packed on a Friday night. Me and my boyfriend had no problem waiting though, so we hung out at the Tim Hortons down the road. They gave us a call and we headed over. The servers were all really nice! And the crowd their that night was hilarious, hence the great ambiance.
The food was the really disappointig bit. We ordered the Oxtail Ramen Lo Mein, the half Jerk Chicken, and the Dirty Fried rice. The first dish that we got oxtail. It was really gross, almost inedible. Both the oxtail and the ramen were extremely salty, the oxtail was not tender, and whatever the sauce on the noodles was did not mix well with the oxtail. Quite a dissapointment as I'm a huge oxtail fan. After the dissapointing start, the jerk chicken and the dirty fried rice. These were both alright, nothing too amazing, but a welcome food to eat after the oxtail. Jerk chicken came with a really spicy scotch bonnet sauce which was a fun addition to the meal, but the chicken itself was not as spiced as we would have liked. Dirty fried rice seemed to be mix between fried rice and rice and peas.
I think might come here again to try breakfast. Again, the service was awesome, people dining there were great and I would come back just for that.
