This shit is fucked. Don't go here if you're prone to getting emotional about adorable decorations. Great food, could not be more casual. What's the difference between us? We can start at the Vena's.
They also have Jumex. Strong contract. -

Delicious food. I had the mixed vegetables ($11) roti and it was hot (temperature though I was given some tasty hot sauce) and big enough that I took half of it home. The place isn't pretty to look at but I would definitely return and recommend it.

Nice hole-in-the-wall type of place that serves delicious Roti. Doesn't look very inviting from outside but the food is well cooked, the roti is nice and fluffy and the chicken is cooked nicely.
The portion sizes are really big and price is reasonable.
I work in the area so this is a nice spot to have around. -

Is it a hole-in-the-wall? Yep. Is it a bit greasy? Sure. Does the table top video game machine work? Not any more I don't think. But if you're in the neighbourhood or consider yourself a real roti reveller (I do) than this has to be on your list to try.
Somehow the chicken is always cooked perfectly and the curry gravy is unlike anywhere else in Toronto, in a good way, you won't leave hungry. Squash, spinach, and chick peas (and sometimes eggplant) also make for a wonderful veg choice. Oh, the goat is great too. Ginger beer obviously.
The sign in the window does not lie--what this one man can do with a roti wrap (or rice dish) is nothing short of remarkable. Landsdowne gem. -

The roti is really really delicious. And the curries are great, too. This is one of those spots where the food is so good, they didn't need to overcompensate with the ambience. Oh yeah, and because they didn't try hard with the ambience, the food is pretty affordable. No comment on bathroom, haven't tried to use it.
