K&S Island Grill — Restaurant in Winnipeg

If you're looking for a restaurant that delivers Caribbean flavors with a personal touch, K&S Island Grill is the place to be. We had the pleasure of trying their Jerk Fish Sandwich with fries, Jerk Chicken Roti, Curried Shrimp, and Fried Plantain, and each dish was a standout in its own way.

The Jerk Fish Sandwich was the highlight for me—the fish was perfectly grilled, infused with smoky jerk spices, and complemented by the chef’s house-made sauce. It had just the right balance of heat and flavor, making every bite a delight. The Jerk Chicken Roti was packed with tender, well-seasoned chicken wrapped in soft, flaky roti, delivering a comforting yet bold taste. As for the appetizers, the Curried Shrimp had a rich, aromatic curry sauce, while the Fried Plantain offered a sweet contrast to the spiced dishes.

What made our visit even more special was Chef Shawn, the owner, who took the time to chat with us about the dishes and his unique approach to cooking. His passion for his craft is evident in every bite, making K&S Island Grill a must-try for anyone looking for something different and delicious.

We’re already planning to return to try the desserts and oxtail soup—if the rest of the menu is anything like what we had, we know...

Do Not Order from this restaurant.... the customer service is beyond deplorable!

I made an order for 6 beef patties and received 6 burnt patties. They were so burnt i could smell the burn before opening the box. I contacted the restaurant about it to indicate they were burnt, it was unacceptable to receive burnt food and what recourse was there for me because they did not meet my standards and I was not goingto be able to eat them. My first attempt contacting the restaurant the gentleman I spoke to indicated he had no time to talk to me because the patties were ok by his standards, he then hung up on me abruptly. I called back asking to speak with someone else only for the guy to hang up on me again. I then reached out to Doordarsh as the order was placed through doordash. I did not see this as a doordash matter because it was regarding the food. The experience I've had with this restaurant, I will be taking my business elsewhere. In the current economic settings alot of restaurants have had to close their doors permanently, I cannot understand the response from this place. As I take the time out of my husy schedule to write this, the burn of the patties have stained my nostrils....

Solid food. The chef Sean comes out and checks with all of his clients got feedback.

My favorite out of the items we ordered was the jerk chicken. It was not spicy, but we were told later that we could have adjusted the spice level. We did recommend that the server let us know ahead of time for those that are new coming in. The ox tail soup was good. The rice and peas (which are actually beans) were bland, however if you eat it with something more flavorful such as the jerk chicken or the oxtail it balances out. My one disappointment was the amount of plantains given which was two pieces as a side. We did speak to them about how it didn't seem balanced and the price point appears high for that. If it was priced better it would easily be a go to.

The sorrel drink has a bite to it. It hits you in the back of the throat. If you want something different than your regular drinks and have never tried it, I would definitely recommend.

Service is casual and friendly. Parking is Street parking. There is some in front of the restaurant, but they go fast, but you can drive a bit too the...
