Great food, bad service… - Edit
A bit of a mixed review.
Read moreI went there with my non vegan-husband. We ordered the early bird set menu deals (which is highly recommended if you plan on going there).
The food was great! All flavors were very balanced. The banana cake at the end was delicious.
The service, however, was extremely disappointing. It really felt they didn’t care…
The food arrived but one set of utensils was missing. We tried calling for a waiter, but after a couple of minutes just went to the hostess and asked her.
We asked multiple times for water and didn’t receive it.
We asked for the desserts menu but it never arrived, we had to look it up online.
After all of that, they charged us a service fee of 12.5%.
Personally, we really enjoyed the food, but the service ruined our overall experience.
Pros: The food
Cons: Very very bad service , Mandatory service fee

Busy Friday night - Edit
I went with friends on a friday night - it isnt a massive place so it was got really full as we were there which i think contributed to a few mix ups with our orders. The food was great, especially my ‘chicken’ mash and gravy, but we got a selection of different nibbles, sides and my big plate which came out at different times without warning/ the option to come at once. We also got the wrong plates, so one of my friends ate hers cold. The staff were nice though, and had been before without the same problems so I think we just caught them on a bad day.

Great food - Edit
We were absolutely stuffed and loved the food, but there was a little tiny something missing. Can’t put a name on it. If I could put a name on it, it would be five stars that’s why it’s four stars.

Fantastic food - Edit
Loved the food, and good service too. We got the fried chicken and jerk chicken for mains, the fried chicken was incredible, the jerk chicken was also nice but perhaps too heavy on cloves. The chocolate cheesecake and panna cotta for dessert were also really good. Will definitely be back soon.

Great concept, tasty food - Edit
I absolutely loved the idea of this place, the descriptions looked amazing and the food itself was definitely unusual. I tried the "codfish" pea stew and the "codfish" was basically kohlrabi I think, and really not that impressive? But the pea stew was banging! Spicy and well seasoned 🔥 and this place has one of the best mac n cheese I have ever had. It's truly worth it. It was creamy, rich, gooey, savory...genuinely the best weekend treat! 👌

👨🏽🍳 Servicio 10/10
Read moreLovely staff !
🧆 Comida 9/10
The starters we tried were absolutely amazing !
The "fish" dish is incredible, i would love to know how they do such a texture, and the "goat" lacks a bit of flavour but is also very tasty.
I would have liked some chili or any special hot sauce aside for more flavour.
💒 Ambiente 10/10
cosy and classy
💡Originalidad 10/10
The 'enu is incredible
💵 Precio : for a London restaurant with that level of creativity and cuisine, I think the prices are fair !
Pros: Menu, Starters, Atmosphere
Cons: Could be more spicy

Phenomenal - Edit
Incredible restaurant! I hadn’t found any good Caribbean food since going vegan and Jam Delish fulfilled that need. The oyster mushroom fried chicken was delicious and so was the roti to share. The food was beautifully presented, flavoursome and good portion sizes.

Everything is really well cooked, but lacks pop - Edit
For starters the pros: Everything is cooked perfectly. The textures are nice, the proteins are extremely realistic, and everything was visually stunning.
Read moreThe cons: three of our four dishes were nearly flavorless, and the only flavor in the forth came from a mild green sauce. With how beautiful and well cooked everything was, this was a real disappointment.

Stole my money - Edit
Cancelled my reservation and they still charged me and didn’t even have the decency to reply to my phone calls or email. So unbelievably rude and unfair

Update November 2024
Read moreThe new location is great and the food was on point. The chicken skewers were incredible. So glad I finally went back! I love Caribbean food!!!
———————
I think my experience is a one off because this restaurant was so extremely busy during my reservation. It took ages for the server to take our order and it seemed the kitchen was pretty busy overall.
In general, the food was good but a lot of it did lack flavor. The presentation was nice. I’m pretty sure the food is better on other days and that our experience was just a one off. Nonetheless, I can’t get my partner to return because of the experience and lackluster food.

So delicious! - Edit
Loved the Jerk chicken - so delicious and beautifully cooked . Just wish it was spicier. Rice and peas were also very fragrant. Also had the sides of greens and Mach and cheese - all very delicious service was great. Just wish it was a bit cheaper so I could come back often.

Overpriced for what it is - Edit
The food isn't bad, but it really not all that. Spending close to £20 the food doesn't come close to that level. Nice cocktails though. Manager wasnt very nice, just wanted people in and out.

Doesn't seem to encourage take away orders - Edit
Having walked a long way to this restaurant for a takeaway, I was disappointed to discover that I may have needed to wait "up to an hour" for my food to be prepared - the person on the front desk could be no more specific - because priority in the kitchen is given to customers who eat in. This might be understandable, but for the fact that they charge the same regardless of whether a dish is bought to eat in or to carry out. At around £20 for a main dish this makes for an expensive takeaway for which you may need to wait a long time.

Delicious Authentic Caribbean food! - Edit
The best all vegan place we have been to! All the food was amazing and the staff was extremely helpful and nice. The flavours popped and we were really surprised by all the options. The ambiance was ok, but the place was clean and the music set a great mood. Definitely try the "fish" tacos, and the jerk "chicken" skewer. We really had to check we were at a vegan place!! (Also the deserts were amazing!!!)

AMAZING - Edit
A must visit if you're in London!!!
Read moreThe fried chicken & gravy was amazing, so much flavour and the texture of the "chicken" was surprisingly good. My non-vegan friend really enjoyed the curried goat as well, and it was a massive portion of food.
If you do visit here, definitely get the banana cake you won't regret it 😍
