Regular size jerk chicken poutine $11 + tax. Very filling! Lovely flavor and mild spice. Large can serve 2. Fries on the soggier side.

Obsessed is an understatement. This place is amazing! The chicken has the best flavour, and so juicy! Great portions and Tuesday’s are 3$ tacos. How can you beat that?!

Jerk on Wheels is hands down one of the best food spots in Ottawa! I've tried everything on the menu. The food is packed with flavor — you can really taste the love and authenticity in every bite -- tastes home made. The jerk chicken was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of heat, and the sides were packed with flavour. Service was quick and super friendly. The owner makes great conversation. This is definitely my go-to for Caribbean comfort food. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something cozy and comforting.
