Canje

Food was delicious! We had the ceviche, jerk beef patties, and Wagyu beef suya to start. For main dish I had the wild boar pepper pot - so tender and flavorful! My friends got the West Indian curry - didn’t get a pic but it was delicious! Recommend the coconut rice on the side with both dishes to soak up the yummy sauce. We also had the cabbage and it was very flavorful and interesting. We did not have the best service, not sure what the issue was but it was very slow and we had a late resy so it wasn’t too busy.

This was our second visit to Canje since they opened in 2021, and we were happy to see they haven’t lost a step. We ordered the ceviche, jerk beef patties, geera, and pepper fish, all of which were exceptional, though our favorite dish was the beef patties. Kudos to Sho and Erik! With all due respect to the rest of the staff, who were incredibly kind and friendly, the service has room to grow to fully match the quality of the dishes.

First time coming here was amazing! Bar staff was phenomenal, every bite of food was delicious, and the ambiance was top notch. After the first time I've been so excited to return and share that experience with someone else who hadn't been there, so I took my sis on my birthday. Food was every bit as good as I remember it but the service dropped significantly. I've never had service ruin an experience that much but wow. She just seemed bothered by anything and everything going on. Luckily the rest of the waitstaff was extra sweet and helped us out with little things like water to help us feel like we weren't forgotten. Boar Pepper Pot and beef patties always hit though and the Guyanese Style Roti goes good with everything! I'd still recommend but given the option only bar seating for me f

Canje is okay, the food you’re getting for the price isn’t worth it in my opinion. Presentation and service is amazing, but the actual entree dishes that we had weren’t great. The roti was the best thing there (actually really good, I would order two), then the ceviche and then the pink pineapple. Jerk chicken was dry, fish was eh. Ice cream was good, probably not a good idea to pour the rum on it. Overall has a lot of potential, but they need to work on their main dishes.

Canje is our go-to restaurant for any and all special occasions, especially when we have visitors in the city. The food is absolutely delicious. We’ve tried the plantain chips, sweet potatoes (who knew sweet potatoes could taste that good—10/10), pepper fish, and Guyanese roti, and we’ve loved every single dish. The service is great, and the atmosphere makes the experience even better.
