Amira's Hot Roti and Doubles

The wife and I tried doubles for the first time the other day and found this hole in the wall along Kingston rd, we both had no expectations going into it but man.. it really was that good, from the filling to the fried dough. Have to get it spicy, the sauce makes a difference! Looking forward to coming back when we’re in the area.

Amira's was my first experience with trinidadian style of food. I have visited twice and both times it was pretty late, the location is small with limited seating and I ordered for take out on both occasions. The first time, I had ordered doubles with hot sauce. It was my first time having doubles so I have nothing to compare it to, but I felt it was pretty greasy and mushy so I had to eat it with a fork at home. On my second visit, I tried the Aloo Pie. It was tasty, it held together well and the dipping sauce tasted tangy to offset the potatoey thickness. Overall, both experiences were decent and made for a different late night food rush experience.

A M A Z I N G roti, very authentic food. The hot sauce is super spicy but very flavourful! Anytime I’m in Scarborough I have to order from here. It’s that good! Also the lady is super sweet!

The doubles and boneless chicken roti are delicious!!! Been back 3 times this week and brought my sisters and they loved the food!!! Molly was so kind and friendly

Tried the Doubles .portion was good The Bara is not bad . The channa filling needed a Lil more seasoning more curry spice, maybe some green seasoning or cilantro/chandon benny also needed. Asked for tamarind and slight pepper . Sauce was a bit acidic. Just need to work on the channa filling. And the sauce you add to them. I've had doubles straight from the Sauce in Trinidad. Over here Monas and Roti hut is still the best. MONAS all the way though as their channa is always on point . Anyway thank you.

Clean and bright! Had some fantastic mixed vegetable roti with some doubles to go. Will request extra spice next time or some hot sauce on the side

Rating is based on doubles only. Tried thus place to search for a new double joint, and this became a new favorite. My double eating experience is from a guyanese family that lived in trinidad. Will try their meals one day, but hookedbon their doubles.

The roti, and barra doubles shell were made quite nicely, however they used the same chana for both the roti and doubles which are customarily seasoned differently...the overall taste of the curry wasn't good, and the chana was sour/spoiled. I ended up throwing my entire lunch away which was unfortunate because the both the roti and doubles shell were good. ACR is still Boss is Scarborough to me.

The best chicken soup and most generous portions! And omg the home made peanut punch and mauby was the cherry on top for me!Food: 5/5

I being the main cook at home I never buy food anywhere. However I took a leap of faith and tried this establishment based on all the good things I have been hearing from my co workers who visit there regularly. I was pleasantly surprised on what I ate. The food is great. It is 100% fresh, anyone who cooks food knows how to tell the difference. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
