Rasta Pasta

61 Kensington Ave,
Toronto, ON M5T 2K1
About the Restaurant

If you head down to Kensington Market and walk by Rasta Pasta, there’s a good chance you’ll see co-owner Magnus Patterson making jerk chicken outside — using a black oil drum barbecue that reminds you of street-side vendors in the Caribbean. Rasta Pasta serves up pasta and jerk chicken in a small but stylish Jamaican-Italian fusion takeout shop. From the pastas to the jerk sauce, everything is made from scratch, daily, in-house. Not to be missed is the jerk chicken grilled panini served with Rasta Pasta's famous coleslaw or the Dreadlock Pasta that comes with spicy tomato sauce and jerk meatballs. Honestly, there may not be another place that is as Toronto as a Jamaican-Italian fusion restaurant that operates out of Kensington Market, so if you love the city, you'll love this.
