Nutmento Caribbean Grill — Restaurant in Toronto

We went there expecting a good experience, but it turned out to be quite the opposite. Right from the start, we were greeted with an unwelcoming attitude from the server, who looked completely exhausted—like he'd been working a 12-hour shift nonstop. He showed no energy or interest in serving us.

We ordered some poutine and jerk chicken. He disappeared into the kitchen—barehanded, with no gloves on—and the kitchen itself looked like a dark, unclean dungeon. Food items were left uncovered, and there were flies around the store, which was really off-putting.

After about 15 minutes, he returned with boxes that were barely filled—maybe 15% full. When I tasted the food, the gravy was thin like water, with no flavor or texture. It felt like soggy fries dunked in soup.

The service was beyond disappointing. The staff (only one person at the time) showed zero interest in working or serving properly. Overall, it was an extremely unprofessional and unpleasant experience. Definitely not...

I recently dined at Nutmento and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! The authentic Jamaican flavors transported me straight to the Caribbean. The jerk chicken was perfectly spiced, tender, and bursting with flavor. The oxtail stew was rich and savory, melting in my mouth with each bite.

The sides were equally impressive, with the rice and chickpeas complementing the main dishes beautifully, and the veggie cutlets adding a delightful crispy taste . The portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was vibrant and appealing.

The staff were warm and welcoming, making me feel like part of the family. The atmosphere was lively and colorful, with reggae music playing in the background, creating an enjoyable and relaxed dining experience.

I highly recommend Nutmento to anyone looking for an authentic taste of Jamaica. I can’t wait to return and try more dishes from their...

It was okay. Got the jerk chicken BOGO. Flavour wasn’t very authentic, but still quite tasty.

Portion size was very weak. Maybe just because it was BOGO but you probably needed 2 for one person there was only a few small pieces of chicken each so the actual protein was minimal.

Same for the coleslaw it was basically a single big spoonful you could eat it one big bite.

Rice was tasty and a decent portion but not really what the focus was supposed to be.

So overall fairly tasty but a mediocre meal.

Id be tempted to give it 4 stars for flavour but it was underwhelming enough for the meal you expected I...
