"Difficult to know where to start with this review tbh, not sure if we walked in on the end of the restaurant or just a terrible night. Restaurant was empty at 745pm bar a table of 2, zero atmosphere. Young man front of house was pleasant but didn't appear to know the menu, didn't bring wine glasses and didn't even bring plates when the sharing food came out. Having to go and ask for plates in a restaurant was a first. Honestly don't know if he'd ever worked in a restaurant before but he desperately needs trained. Staying off his phone and attending to the diners would be a good start. We felt like we'd intruded on the staff's night off. Ordered the sharing platter at £45....a plate of meat with a dollop of coleslaw and a tiny bowl of chips. The meat was seasoned well and tasty but I expected a lot more from a sharing platter. The curry bowl was very good. Not given the chance to order dessert. When I asked the FoH why the evening was so shambolic he told me the owners had covid and they were doing their best. Hopefully this is a one off as I've enjoyed it before, but I found myself having to apologise to our guests for the experience.

I have ordered from Deliveroo twice and both times they accepted my order even though they didn't have any drivers available and kept the money. Beware.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic. It's not too spicy, but incredibly tasty. I will definitely be returning. The service was excellent and I dined in for lunch. The price per person ranged from £10 to £20. I give the food a rating of 5 and the service a rating of 5 as well. The atmosphere was a 4. I highly recommend trying the Jerk Ribs and Chicken Wings.

The Jerk Chicken Wrapito I received was not at all like the ones served to other customers. It seemed to have been microwaved, as it was soggy and lacked any flavor. I even heard the microwave ping. This is not what I would expect when paying nearly £25 for a main dish, side, and a soft drink. The staff appeared annoyed that I was there, even though I was the only customer in the restaurant on a Saturday night. Overall, the service was poor, with a rating of 2 out of 5. The atmosphere was also lacking, with a rating of 1 out of 5.

I first noticed this restaurant a year ago while we were at a cup downstairs and was eager to try it. At that time, it didn't have many reviews. Finally, I had the opportunity to dine at the restaurant. The atmosphere was very nice, with pleasant music playing in the background. The staff was friendly and the service was prompt. We ordered the nachos, buss up chicken and lamb, chickpea callaloo, jerk burger, Caribbean fish and chips, and the lamb pot. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meal and left with clean plates. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. The only downside was the corkage fee of £5 per bottle of wine and £1.80 per bottle of beer/lager. Despite this, I would...
