Title: A Pleasant Dining Experience with Great Service and Delicious Food Rating: 4 stars I recently revisited this restaurant after a long absence and was pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. The service provided was top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Even though it had been a while since my last visit, they made us feel welcome and attended to our needs promptly. While I was initially disappointed by the changes made to the menu, with a reduction in options and a stronger emphasis on Caribbean cuisine, I must say that the food itself was excellent. Each dish we ordered was flavorful and well-prepared, leaving us thoroughly satisfied. The lady serving us also provided recommendations, ensuring that our choices were complemented with a few extra bits that enhanced the overall dining experience. The kitchen staff deserves praise for their attention to detail, as there were no mistakes made with our order. Moreover, I would like to commend the restaurant's willingness to accommodate our request for desserts from another shop owned by the same owners. It was a kind gesture that added a touch of variety to our meal, and we truly appreciated their flexibility and customer-focused approach. On a constructive note, I feel it's important to address the issue of hygiene. The cleanliness of the bathroom left something to be desired, and there were noticeable body odor smells that were slightly off-putting. I believe that maintaining clean facilities is crucial for any establishment and would recommend that the management pay closer attention to this aspect. The only dish that fell short of expectations was the prawn dish. Unfortunately, it lacked flavor and seasoning, resulting in the prawns seemingly swimming in plain water and the virgin drinks don’t bother at all. However, this minor disappointment did not overshadow the overall amazing dining experience we had with the other dishes. In conclusion, my recent visit to this restaurant left me with a positive impression. The excellent service, delicious food, and the staff's willingness to accommodate our requests made for a memorable dining experience. While there is room for improvement in terms of menu selection and hygiene, I would still highly recommend this restaurant to others seeking a satisfying meal with great service.

Food is incredible every time, although mains come out at very different times which dampens the experience a little whilst the rest of the party waits for their food (sometimes can take up to 10 mins for the rest of the meals to come). Staff is kind and lovely, even when certain meals may not be available and they always accommodate. The food is always fresh and value for money, you will leave satisfied. Bathrooms could use a deep clean tho.

This is by far the best Afro /Caribbean restaurant in London. We came as a group of nine and the staff were so catering to all our specific needs. The interior and detail of everything in this fine establishment is astonishing. Now let me say by saying that there is not one thing on the menu that isn’t 10/10. I had the luck chance in trying the jerk platter , chicken Alfredo, oxtail and the Caesar.I have never tasted such flavoursome and mouthwatering food like this from a restaurant in a long time. The head Chef (Stefan) was a delight and I greeted myself and my entire family.His hands are truly blessed.He has a true talent in the kitchen and made our experience ten times better. THIS IS A MUST VISIT.I will definitely be back to try the roast dinner on a Sunday!

Really nice but please read the full review. I ordered oxtail and my friend ordered the half baby Jerk Chicken. First of all I wanted to replace my rice and peas, which came with the oxtail, with home slaw which was cheaper then the rice and peas but I was told they couldn’t do that but they could replace it with Jolof rice which was also more expensive then the home slaw. They did however let me get the Jolof rice for my friend as his didn’t come with any sides and I didn’t end up getting the home slaw. My oxtail meat was not consistent in its tenderness and at first I thought they must have mixed some curry goat with my oxtail but when I asked the chef he said they have multiple suppliers of oxtail meat and that was the reason for the inconsistency. The chicken was cooked really well and both dishes tasted really good. I can’t complain about the flavour. I also liked that they gave the jug of water with ice it was a nice touch on a hot day. Overall the service was really good. I would go again but it’s not going to be my go to Jamaican food place. It’s a lil bit far and I have options near me which are as good.

Great service and table was ready on time which was perfect for breaking fast with my wife. We got the steak with peppercorn sauce which was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. We also got the jerk chicken with rice and peas which was so good, I would definitely recommend this restaurant!
