Ali’s Roti Shop

Love the roti here, boneless chicken yummie, if they got pumpkin, not mixed with squash that’s good to mix in. 1.00 $ doubles can’t beat that price anywhere. I also enjoy the pholouries, the sauce that comes with it your gonna want extra. I always add the chick peas to my roti makes it more yummie. Try the Trinidad cola while here you won’t be disappointed.

Roti are made of all purpose flour & not of wheat flour. A place which could help for emergency for indians. Not great.

Great food and very helpful staff! Best tasting doubles and aloo pie that I have tasted around in a while! If you like authentic Trini food stop by!

What a great find — the flavors were amazing… we loved the doubles and our vegetarian roti was so flavorful and MASSIVE (we split one, with leftovers…) The prices were very reasonable and the woman working was very nice and helpful. We will be back!

This is the real deal!
I have been a few times in the last weeks:?authentic, tasty and friendly place!
Love those Roti and doubles! Been on vacation in Trinidad & Tobago years ago and finally got to experience those great flavored again. Thanks Ali for setting up shop in Broward.

Ok, my first visit was today based on other Unilocalers giving 5 stars.
I’m a big fan of ALL styles of Caribbean food and loved how close to my job this place is.
I came with the idea of getting just goat roti, then… I entered and the smells of wonderful cooked foods peaked my interest in everything.
I ordered goat roti, a side of stewed chick peas and a side of pumpkin.
And two extra roti skins, plus other things… but that seems like a lot doesn’t it? I wanted what I wanted, plus everything else everyone ordered who was picking up food. I couldn’t stop!
I want to talk about the roti with ground chick peas first. It was FRESH & PIPING HOT! omg! WONDERFUL!
All the food was terrific. The spices in the goat roti were just, lovely.
Spicy and… terrific. Side order of stewed chick peas + side order of pumpkin sooooooo flavorful.
Ok, lemme let me let go of the food for a minute.
I want to talk about the VIBE in this place.
When I entered WAVS was playing soca on the in house radio. Nice. Made me feel at home immediately. Volume perfect, could still hear staff and vice verse.
Staff seems to be family owned and operated. Teens running the Front of House with cordiality and proficiency. No stress, no loud voices,
no complaints and no mistakes. They spoke to people with orders waiting, updating them and assuring that they were preparing exactly what they’d ordered.
What a SUPREME joy to deal with teenagers who don’t have an attitude and don’t hate their jobs. Even when the teens spoke to each other, it was with respect and cordiality
Restaurant is CLEAN and orderly. This was at 2:30 pm, way after their lunch rush. Steady stream of customers while I was there.
This may well be the BEST TRINI food in Broward.
I WILL BE BACK.

Delicious! The doubles are sooo good! I came in on a rainy day, it was a pleasant surprise to find this delicious little shop. They have all the trini flags up too. Loved it.

The food was amazing and so was the customer service. Everything fresh and piping hot. The cashier was very patient with our allergies and diets. They plenty of vegetarian options!
We ordered two combo plates of pumpkin, curry chickpeas, potatoes, eggplant, spinach, and roti. Very yummy!

First time here and Ali’s does not disappoint! I was a Trinidad cuisine novice and not only was the staff super helpful and friendly, other patrons were as well. Awesome hybrid of Indian, Asian and Caribbean flavors makes this cuisine unique and tasty. Prices can’t be beat, the best lunch or dinner you will find for the money hands down. The food is healthy, fresh, tasty and made from the heart. So happy to find this gem close to the new house in west Lauderdale.

Just left there and it was absolutely terrible! I was waiting about twenty minutes for my order and there were two children running the store and I only got half of my order because they were arguing with each other. I ended up only getting phoulorie and the phoulorie was full of dense old oil. My mother makes better. Ali, you are never getting a cent from me again unless this changes.

This place is the genuine artice. The food is authentic and high quality. A clean environment too!

Great food at more than reasonable prices. Ali’s is the place to go for an authentic Trinidadian breakfast or lunch. The place itself is small but has that Trinidad feel. The food is amazing. Many restaurants try to replicate roti shops from Trinidad but Ali’s pulls it off. The food is fresh and has the right taste. Their doubles are the best outside of Trinidad. The staff is always friendly and goes the extra step to make your dish to your liking. If you’re in Fort Lauderdale, Ali’s is a must stop. I’m in town for a week and stopped in every day.

Saw all the reviews about ‘doubles’ and had to give this place a try.
Nothing short of spectacular!!! Food was amazing! The girls explained all the different items and even let me try some of it. Definitely recommend this place to anyone.

I was visiting and called my friend Jomo for Trini food. He said he knew the best place and he was right. Had doubles, alloo pie with bhagee and veggie roti with pumpkin.
Delicious. My non Trini friend loved the doubles with slight pepper. Lol
Highly Recommend

Wow this was excellent the food was fantastic the place is full of flavor and is really authentic Trinidad food. If you want to try something flavorable, worth trying, great prices

Yes this is the best spot for doubles!!! Great service authentic food. And the price is just right. We drove 1hr to get here and we have already made plans to eat lunch and dinner here. Everything is great you can’t go wrong with anything you try here.
Call ahead to make sure they have a supply of what you need. Once it’s gone it’s gone! Duck only on Saturdays… arrrrr

Food not so much all that sorry to say. but I did like the doubles with the tambrin n pepper all over.yumii.$ 1

This is a tiny, family-​run roti shop. The staff are friendly and happy to help with your selections.
Please note the shop closes early on Sundays (2pm), so they do not make the full menu! This means no curries. They were also out of doubles by the time I got there :(
The prices are more than reasonable. The roti (buss-​up-​shot) is top notch, and the stew chicken is pretty good. This is more of a carry-​out spot than eating it.

I found this Lil gem by chance and will definitely be back… the food is fresh, delicious and reasonably priced… yum

I stopped in to get two doubles to go and some roti shells. I was going to a friend’s house who was making curry chicken and we wanted a few extra food items. The doubles are $ 1/​each. What a deal!!! Since I wasn’t going to eat them right away, the owner packaged the double shell separate from the chickpea curry stew that goes inside of them.
I got two different types of Roti shells ($ 2.50 each). The one stuffed with lentils and the other was the flakey plain kind. Both were very good.
The place seats 10. My order took less than 10 minutes to prepare at 3pm on a weekday afternoon. The restaurant has been open for three years. They have a large Trinidad flag hanging on the outside so it’s easier to find.
I would definitely go back to try more food. The service was friendly and efficient and the food was high quality. There is free parking in the attached parking lot out front. It is in a safe area and no loud music was being played.
