i come to tropical joe's almost once a week. Their jerk chicken poutine is mouthwatering. They have two sizes: small & large. They also have three spice levels: mild, mix (a mix of mild and spicy) & spicy. To me, all three spice levels taste a little different. The mild is not spicy at all & has a little bit of a sweet taste to it, however it's kind of boring. While the spicy has a huge kick of jerk spice, which is kind of overpowering to me. i usually get mines mixed cause it's the best of both worlds and my spice tolerance is pretty low. The poutine is nice but the chicken in it is really bland.. the gravy is what makes the poutine the best out there. Everything about this restaurant is phenomenal, except for the fact that i come here every week & the SAME exact girl takes my order each time & she still has not remembered my order; i guess it's cause of all the faces she sees everyday, which is understandable. If you do not like bland chicken, like me lol, then i suggest you ask for "cheesy fries" instead of a "jerk chicken poutine". cheesy fries are the same as the jerk chicken poutine, except there's no chicken. You still get the jerk chicken gravy & all the same flavour. i have not tried anything else on their menu because the jerk chicken poutine keeps pulling me in lol.

small jerk chicken poutine/cheesy fries with a drink - $3.99 (i think)

*the spice level/flavour does not change the price*
