My husband and I visited Toronto for the first time and really enjoyed trying out Rasta Pasta. It is definitely more of a take out style place but you don't have to wait long for a small table to open. There are two parts to the store. The left one is a Jamaican Italian fusion pasta place and the right side serves just Jamaican food.
Ordered: medium jerk chicken, medium jerk pork, both with rice and beans and cole slaw, ting and the guava juice
Portions were great! They really fill up the box with good portions of meat and rice. My jerk chicken was cooked to perfection with the meat falling off the bone. The jerk pork was tender as well and flavorful. You can't have Jamaican jerk without rice and beans which I thought was cooked just right.
Make sure to get that extra jerk sauce on top of your meat and try their homemade spicy sauce and pickled veggies to go with the food.
If you want to have that authentic Jamaican experience you can't forget to add a bottle of Ting to your meal. My husband got the guava juice and it was pretty good as well.
After our meal we walked around and I so very much wanted to get a second one to take back home with us. I really regret not doing so! The line definitely picks up here so make sure to go early so you can also sit down inside to eat. Most people seem to leave 15-20min after sitting down.
