Visited for dinner on a Tuesday night. We started with the Pepper Pot soup. It was a delicious, spicy soup, with beef, potatoes and duff (dense bread). For our main course we had the Jerk Chicken, and the Goat Curry with roti. The chicken itself was moist and tasty but lacked the spicyness of the "jerk". The Goat Curry tasted different then I had expected and was slightly bland for my taste. The roti though was just as my mom made; warm, soft and slightly flaky on the outside. It was slightly cool (and a bit dark) in the restaurant but that might have been due to the fact that it was empty aside from our party.
This was without a doubt the most memmorable dining experience I have had in years.
The atmosphere of this tiny but homey establishment makes it feel as if you are in the chefs own living room and the service is not to be believed, both friendly and efficient.
The stuffed sole was, I am told, out of this world while the jerk chicken and curried goat took me back to Montego Bay......it was exceptional.
As for the pepper pot soup? It was incredible.
Elvis, the chef, is both personable and extremely professional.... but above all, he genuinely cares about his clientele..... and he is a culinary genious blending fresh ingredients to create a dining experience you will not easily forget.
Was the dinner worth the money? Absolutely.
Will I be back?????
Oh yeah...........
My woman and I discovered Ellison's about 2 years ago when we lived around the corner from it, and we've been coming back ever since. We always feel welcomed and are given impeccable service. I'm not even going to rave about the food, it's simply about as good as it can get. Every time we visit, one of us must have the chicken paprika, it's just that good. The most special attribute of this establishment is the kind, caring nature of everyone you'll meet. I will be visiting as long as their doors remain open. If you live in Kit./Wat. and haven't been, do yourself a favor and drop in and experience Ellison's for yourself.
What a wonderful meal! Ellison's Bistro is one of the better restaurants I've been to. Elvis (chef) is friendly and unbelievably talented. You cannot beat the service in this restaurant. As for the food...Everything is made to order therefore is absolutely fresh, and can be as spicy or as mild as you like it. Absolutely delicious. We'll be back!!
Never would have imagined the food from driving by....once inside the ambiance is wonderful and the chef aimed to please. He custumized the "spicy" for my wife and the chicken was incredable. My wife and I eat out at high end restraunts every month and can not believe we been missing out on this.. made for a great "date"
