Smoke 'n' Roti

What is Smoke 'n' Roti? Smoke 'n' Roti is an authentic Trinidadian roti shop and Caribbean kitchen situated at 3320 Keele Street in Downsview, just south of Downsview Park and Sheppard Avenue West. Owned and operated by Trinidadian culinary masters, Smoke 'n' Roti prepares traditional West Indian specialties from scratch daily, utilizing time-honored island spice blends and house-kneaded roti skins. The humble storefront serves local Caribbean diaspora families, industrial park workers, and Toronto roti enthusiasts looking for authentic, uncompromised island cooking.

Smoke 'n' Roti Menu & What to Order The core of the menu is their handcrafted rotis, wrapped in your choice of freshly griddled Dhalpuri (stuffed with seasoned ground yellow split peas) or flaky, layered Paratha (Buss Up Shut) skins. The Boneless Curry Goat Roti is exceptional, stewed slowly until tender in aromatic Trinidadian curry spices with tender potatoes and chickpeas. Poultry lovers praise the Boneless Curry Chicken and the smoky, charcoal-infused Jerk Chicken Roti. Street food purists must order Trinidadian Doubles—two warm, fluffy fried baras filled with spicy curried channa, topped with tamarind sauce and spicy green mango kuchela. Pair your meal with an ice-cold bottle of homemade Hibiscus Sorrel or rich Peanut Punch.
