We just discovered this restaurant. We tried Dhalpuri and doubles. Hands on everything best food. It's Welland hidden gem. Additionally, customer service was great. I would highly recommend this place to everyone.

Having recently moved to Welland, it was a thrill to find this place just today! We thought we'd give it a try and see what our taste buds say! Well well well, we just picked up our curried chicken/dhalpurie and jerk chicken/rice dish....and boy we were happy with the first mouthful! As u can see I couldn't wait to dig into that roti! Great job and kudos to the chefs at L'Js roti shop!

Made the trip here for lunch during a recent trip to Niagara Falls. My girlfriend and I were trying to get away from the tourist traps, searching the surrounding areas for something more authentic We chose LJ's based on the strength of Google reviews, and happy that we did so! We like to ask questions when we're making selections, and the manager was happy to walk us through recommended pairings, including combos that weren't on the menu. I had the jerk chicken with a base of rice, and a scoop of "pumpkin". (We learned that this is a nickname for butternut squash). My girlfriend had the chicken curry roti, with a scoop of pumpkin wrapped inside the roti. The manager brought our order right to the car, and we ate it right there. We received HEALTHY portions for the price, and every bite was fantastic! I had to pop back into the shop to give them their props and offer thanks for the recommendations...it was that good. Thanks for a great lunch!

Absolutely ? percent amazing!!! I ate there for the 1st time last week and had to go back again this week and can't wait for my next time already. It is so good so fresh, generous helpings, and great customer service. The 1st time I had chicken because the lamb was sold out. Tonight I had the lamb and it is amazing I love them both my husband had the shrimp curry and he loved that as well over chow mein noodles. I'm glad we finally tried it..... our new go to restaurant for sure! Thank you

I was excited to find a Caribbean restaurant/Roti Shop in Welland. Upon looking at the menu I had a lamb roti and chicken roti β€œspicy”. Didn’t get the traditional Guyanese/Trini curry taste I was expecting but still tasted overall great. As for my spicy chicken roti, the spicy level or β€œheat” was a 0/10, β€œhomemade pepper sauce” would have been a great compliment. Looking forward to trying the Doubles.

Delicious, absolutely delicious. Fresh, well seasoned and what any roti fan would be looking for. Did I mention they have doubles too? I'd recommend spicy if you can handle a little spice as it adds more to the flavor profile of the roti. Definitely coming back. Take a look at the pics and what's under the hood of the double ? You won't be disappointed!!!

While they got my order wrong (she gave me rice instead of roti) it was quickly remedied and we were on our way. Our first time at LJ's, so while I didn't know their menu nor had time to ask for suggestions etc, I went with three options I'd normally order at a roti shop. Curry Chicken Roti (as mentioned the lady thought I said rice I guess, but that was corrected after). I wish I had time to eat the roti while it was off the tawa (hot) we had a long drive ahead of us, so I didn't get to it hours later. That said - the wrapper kept it warm (well done). I did heat it up later in the microwave, and to be honest, it didn't go overly soggy or clump together as some I've had in the past (well done). The roti itself wasn't overly greasy (well done) and the curry itself had a good (not great flavor). I really think they have an excellent product here, but their peppersauce (hot sauce) needs works. The areas where it was in the roti, had a tart or sour taste and no real heat. I'd also add a bit more curry potato to the mix. A good roti overall, with a ton of boneless (dark meat - well done) chicken and the size was commendable. The Jerk Chicken With Rice. Another good option, except we wished it had a bit of heat to it. Wonderful overall flavor, but IMHO jerk needs a little heat. That said, this is Welland and maybe they are catering to the heat level locals can handle. I cannot fault them for that. 2 Side orders of plain Paratha roti. Again, not overly greasy (well done), packaged the same as the other roti I had (kept warm and didn't go dry), however I found them a bit small (circumference) as compared to other roti shops we visit in Ontario (basically the same prices else where). Good food, reheats well, good value for money and great customer service (the guy at the counter - apologies as I didn't get your name). You guys are representing the Caribbean/Guyana well. Free parking at the front is always good. The sign at the front is easy to miss!

This restaurant has been my go to again. Everything is so tasty and full of flavour. My top go to is the lamb curry and casareep chicken. It seems like it truly does not matter what you get, as everything is absolutely delicious. A little taste of heaven… I purchased the jerk chicken today and it’s so delicious. Don’t expect carribean style jerk. This is different but still delicious.
