Arguably the best roti I’ve had in the city! I got the shrimp curry with roti and it was off the charts. Exceptionally friendly and fast service, will definitely be back!
Ordered from this spot on a whim and very happy I did! I got the duck and it was very flavorful 🦆 and tender, the sauce was almost jerk like but curry like at the same time, definitely recommend ✨
I love that Melanie's! The food and owners are great! I ate there at least 20 times over the past couple of years and going today!
