Reviews of Ma Petite Jamaica
S. R.Great atmosphere, music and cocktails- I'd definitely come back and try the food next time because it smelt amazing! Staff were really friendly and chilled, it's just a very happy vibe and place.
S. H.Love.. Love.. Love this place.
So much fun had here..
The food isn't too bad either..
Really authentic carribean Restaurant with a vibe...
Starter good selection.
Oxtail, tasty and succulent.
My only one criticism is they need more dessert..
Cocktails good amount of alcohol.
Music.... Fantastic..
The Manager he is so friendly and welcoming..
I have been there twice so far.
Will go back again..
J. B.Yea not bad nice staff nice food, just the platter could of done with some colour wasn’t appealing to look at tasted nice don’t get me wrong I’d swap out one either fries or cassava don’t put both on put something colourful on mixed veg of some sort.
R. 1.First of I can’t belive these guys don’t state that there food is “HALAL” we had to drive there ask at the counter which they then confirmed it was we then sat down ordered our food which was decent but the portion Sizes are so small personally not worth the money So on the good Side if your a Muslim , food is halal on the down side potions are waaayyy to small..
S. V.I love Ma Petite Jamaica! It’s my guilty (too many delicious rums) pleasure! Lovely cocktails, people and atmosphere.
Whether in the day or evening it is the ultimate chill spot with a pick me up DJ or live music vibe at the weekends.
For days off or an after work unwind, take me to Ma Petite Jamaica!
Great management, bartenders and waiters/ waitresses too! Xxx
N. P.Great cocktails especially the Spanish town rumgria. A lively atmosphere and friendly crew. Jerk chicken was really good with meat falling off the bone! I loved the dumplings and fried cassava. Must try the coleslaw, it was refreshing and light. Will be back again to try out the dishes that they'd run out of at the end of bank holiday Monday.
L. R. T. E.Food is absolutely amazing. I could hear/smell/feel/see the flavours in my mouth man. Friendly and professional staff. The way it's set up reminds me of home so much. Really pleasant experience, I'll be back for SURE. Good vibes, good times.
N. M.Absolutely fabulous place. The decor, the ambience, the choice of music. The food will NOT let you down. A lot of Caribbean takeaway food has turned into stodge but this place and its food is Absolutely divine. Get the ackee and salt fish starter Get It! I had oxtail. Man the oxtail was on POINT.
Let's talk about SERVICE-one of the best things about this place. His name is Romeo and he delivers. Romeo was such a gentleman and one of the reasons you should visit. 5stars fir everything!!
F.Had a very good time here, the drinks I ordered were good and the music and atmosphere was too. Got to mention the security were also welcoming, my only issue is that the bar charged me for 3 extra drinks, partially my fault as I was slightly distracted when I made the order and paid for the second part. Let's see how this is resolved. I'm yet to contact them on that so not holding it against the venue. They were very good on the night. Go see for yourselves.
T.Food was great, Omar (our waiter) was fabulous but I didn't appreciate the overly loud music - was left with a strained voice and a headache. Was on a date and was unable to hear him and when I spoke I had to yell to be heard. This was my date's first experience with Jamaican food and I tried to explain the menu but had to yell over the music to be heard, so I ordered for him. Thankfully, I made suggestions that were well received. I asked Omar to adjust the volume a bit, which he did but 10 mins later it was louder than before I asked.
If I were to go back, it would be to order to go or I'll go when out door seating is available.
M. M.Arrived for a dinner Saturday night, 4 in a party, only 3 had shown and one 30mins late it happens. Before even ordering our meals we were told that they'd need the table soon as they have a booking at 6:45pm even though our booking was scheduled for 5:30 - 7:30pm. I shouldn't feel rushed to order or eat my food based on capacity of bookings especially if my end time was not yet reached. Did not appreciate that, overall drinks nice , good portions of meals value for money I had oxtail which should have been more tender and fall off the phone was a lil on the chewy side. Also was expecting live music as advertised on their website.. a lil background music which is cool but the waiter had told us they don't have live music there, the site needs updating as it states it there is Thurs - Sat
D. E.I love the food - I had the jerk red bream fillets with rice and peas with a cocktail and fries
R. M.I absolutely love this place, me and my family of 7 sat and dined to celebrate my mothers 50th birthday!!! We started off with starters then proceeded with our mains. Food was extremely well cooked (jerk chicken fell off the bone!!!) with amazing drinks from the bar(got a little tipsy from the port royal punch!!). An amazing experience I must say.
The staff were friendly however I was greeted by a young handsome man by the name of Omar, I must say WE HAVE NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD IN OUR ENTIRE LIVES!!!!!!! Extremely polite, always asking if we were okay and made us feel welcome and cracking up jokes (almost made my mother’s dentures fall out lol)made my mother smile after dealing with the loss of one of our close relatives. BIG RESPECT TO HIM, and to the staff for the food and drinks.
Will be returning again soon.
C. D.It's small so best to book. Most food is really good, a few were just average. Portions are plentiful and cocktails were lovely. Staff were very attentive even though we were a large booking. We couldn't finish so took food home, lunch the next day was yummy!! Oh, and the roti skins are proper Dahl puri roti
P. P.Made reservation for 15 and unfortunately due to a passing in the family, I had to cancel last minute.
I emailed the restaurant and told them, and they decided that due to the circumstances, that they would not charge me a late cancellation fee.
For that I am eternally grateful and will definitely be rebooking in the near future, so I can personally thank them and enjoy the wonderful menu.
M. “. F.This remains one of my favourites 😍
Never fails to deliver high quality authentic dish!!
Together with a warm welcome and outstanding service!!
Highly recommended 👌🏾
P. P. O.Service was slow!!!!! It took about 15 minutes for someone to come see us at the entrance to show us to our seat. And no, it wasn't busy at all, the place was so empty. Food was great in terms of quantity and price but there are not enough plantains for a Jamaican place! And they don't have a signature hot sauce, they bring you siracha. I was disappointed at that! I was really hyped to visit but I don't think I'll do a second visit.
C. M.The food is amazing!! The atmosphere and staff is also very very nice. I enjoyed it there but the only downside is they have the door open and the air blowing from a fan above, the fan was regulating hot and cold air but not enough hot and it was far too cold in there to sit and eat, as a result the food gets as cold as you are! I understand they would like air in the restaurant but I wouldnt visit again due to this. It was a cold night inside and outside and i came away frozen. As an authentic Caribbean restaurant they should bring the heat aswell as the good vibes!! 👎🏽
k. h.Amazing food, huge portions, and beautiful cocktails but beware! They are lethal!!!!
C. E.We had one day left of our London get away and we decided to see what Camden had to offer. A quick search led me to the incredible menu of ma petite Jamaica. And let me tell you it did not disappoint!
The front is small so for a passer by you may not spot it, but the smell is unmissable. We were treated by such a friendly guy singing away he showed us in and made us feel right at home. The place is small but not inconveniently so, it has that holiday feel and if you are put off by the size all of the incredible decor and colours will distract you straight away.
Within 45 minutes of the place opening it was packed with regulars who obviously come here every lunch time for a decent meal!!
We had to go for the jerk wings, roti & barbecue ribs with a side of Mac and cheese. I have never experienced such joy until I ate ALL OF THIS. Hands down made our final day so much better. All the meat was marinated to perfection and chargrilled on the pit which I think is what made it that much better.
If you want something different that isn’t going to break the bank and you don’t mind a bit of heat then this is the place
T. W.Lovely authentic Jamaican food. The staff were nice and the food was delivered to our table at a reasonable time. Cocktails during happy hour were delicious would recommend the pina colada 😁
S. N.UPDATED:This is a difficult one for me... I've contacted the organisers privately so I will update my review after they reply. I booked for the "Bottomless Brunch" which is a new service, my companion and I were the first people ever to book the brunch and it showed. It was a bit disorganised as the waitresses didn't know what the brunch menu was and eventually took our phones to kitchen to show the chefs what to make... I had the non-vegetarian plate and everything was cold - after they nuked it in the microwave it was tasty but most items were now too tough. The vegetarian skewers were drastically under-seasoned and my friend couldn't eat them which was a shame as they were the majority of her meal. The rum punch was unlimited and quite strong- if you're a big drinker then you'll enjoy the rum punch! The toilets were very clean but not fully accessible as they are only downstairs. I'd give this restaurant another chance as the other meals looked really tasty and despite the temperature and texture of my food the flavours were authentic. I feel it was a case of not being properly prepared for the brunch particularly the vegetarian option. I feel with more constructive feedback and more time the brunch will be excellent. UPDATE: we returned for a do-over complimentary brunch on 9th March 2019, this time round they were much more organised and the food was hot. The vegetarian option particularly still needs some work and the brunch menu has been tweaked since last time, but there is still room for improvement. Overall I commend the owner/manager for his attentiveness and willingness to accept feedback AND act on it. I would return and I'm considering having my friends and family Christmas Dinner here. (The photo with the calamari rings was the second brunch)
N. “. e.Been there a few times, and one thing I can say is that the quality of the food is always consistent.
The staff are Incredibly friendly which keeps me coming back for more!!
See you again soon
C. G.I ate here for the first time, and I will definitely be coming back. The staff were very helpful and found out further information for me regarding a particular dish. We didn’t have to wait long for our main courses. I had the sea bass and all I can say is it was outstanding. I ate the callalloo stuffed baked sea bass, sweet potato wedges, coconut sauce and passion fruit coulis ❤️. My cousin had the curry goat with rice n peas and fried plantain. The manager was pleasant, customer focused and very sociable. It was a lovely experience. I would definitely recommend this as a place to eat in Camden if you want good Caribbean food
L. T.Atmosphere, music and cocktails were great! Service was slow but staff were friendly! Only thing I was disappointed in was the food it was not authentic Jamaican food at all. It's misleading to put on the menu that the jerk was from a pit because it wasn't and didn't taste like jerk chicken at all. It was burnt and tasted more like BBQ chicken. I'm still yet to find a restaurant with real authentic Jamaican food that's not a take away & disappointed to find out it wasn't black owned. If I had known I would never had came.
s. m.The food was absolutely delicious. Good service what you'd expect from a Caribbean place ie order your food and it arrive a month later. Jokes aside this was a really good venue for food with the club side also a good night out #camden #currygoatcallinmaname
K. M.Absolutely love this place - spent one night in Camden due to a gig at the jazz cafe and needed a place to eat.
Let me tell you this is the best oxtail I’ve ever had ! Cocktails are also the bomb . Highly recommend would love to go again when I’m next in town
J. G.Absolutely delicious Goat Curry! Good heat to it, perfect portion size and service was excellent. Great value as well. Came on a Tuesday so served quickly. Will be coming here again and/or takeaway
C. H.Visited here last month and the service was great - the food was even better and the cocktails matched! We had the Jerk salmon and Curry goat, absolutely authentic and delicious!
K. B.The food is outstanding, succulent and delicious. Good portion sizes Good atmosphere and the service was excellent. The cocktails are amazing especially killa duppie. Totally wicked. I would highly recommend it
J. C.I went for brunch and had a lovely time! Delicious food and bottomless refills ☺️ Catering for all dietary requirements and lovely waiting staff - Jet was our server and was particularly lovely. Would recommend!
K. W.Best to book beforehand.
Small, cosy and family friendly.
🇯🇲 AUTHENTIC JAMAICAN FOOD 🇯🇲
Wide range of Rum.
Excellent cocktails.
A great place to spend a Friday evening.
Reasonable price range
P. E.Had a lovely Saturday afternoon 2 hour brunch, staff were very attentive and filled up our glasses regularly, which was either Rum Punch or Prosecco. Food was great too. Also being in the middle of Camden Town , very buzzy area
A. G.Delicious ribs and goat curry. Friendly staff. Nice ambience that gives solid Jamaican vibes. Would definitely recommend.
f. m.This Jamaican restaurant is in the middle of Camden in London. Crowd is mix. Staff are of West Indies background and food smell and tasted Jamaican. Will be back , loved it even though the wait (to take order and to have the food...) is like in any West Indies place. No punch in the drink menu...Still love it.
K. K.Such tasty and amazing portions. You can tell that is made with love. Never fail to disappointment and are very consistent with their standards.
I think I have left a review prior but as a small business owner, I know how appreciated these gestures are.
Thank you for my delicious food.
G. S.Food was so good, goat was extremely tender, dumplings were out of this world, by far the best dumplings I've had. Cocktail was strong but tasteless so I had just the one, and didn't finish it. Waiter never came back and I had to try really hard to catch someones attention to get the check. Other than that, I would recommend this place!
B. R.The staff were pleasant, professional and polite. The food was authentic, amazing textures, wonderful flavours with a beautiful presentation to top it off.
I didn't have to wait too long for my meal which I thoroughly enjoyed and I loved the ambiance.
I would definitely recommend this place to my fellow Jamaicans and fans of Jamaica and of course anyone unfortunate enough not to have experienced Authentic Jamaican Cuisine.
Thank you Ma Petite Jamaica 🇯🇲👊🏿
RJ
A. J.Amazing food, loved the spice of everything. Curry goat is a must try along with the jerk pit mixed grill. Lovely ambience.
T. H.Good food, try it
K. S.Surprisingly empty at first for a place with quality service and food. Appreciated the picture on the wall of the black woman boss. One and only bad mark on this occasion, was the Guinness punch cocktail, needed a little less Guinness and more cream & ice. On the upside, our waiter made too much of the cocktail so gave us an extra drink.
D. B.Popped in here on a busy Saturday afternoon and the place was packed. Despite this the food and service was excellent. Can't wait for our next visit
E. J.The food was nice (I had the vegetable curry) but I wish there was more than just a bowl of curry and a bowl of rice on the plate! My friend's Jamaican Fried Chicken plate had much more to offer though and other people's food looked quite filling too, so might just be the one I ordered!
The lady who waited on us was friendly and absolutely lovely!!
D. M.Was at a loose end on bank holiday Monday. So went on recommendation.
Glad i did. I had curry goat with rice and peas. Lovely food.
Really enjoyed it. Some have said survice is a bit slow, but for us,it seemed quick enough. I think maybe it's because there wasn't many people in.
And in any case, I'm a patient man.
So even if i have to wait, makes no difference to me.To much rushing thease days.
Sorry, drifting a bit.
Prices are good IMO.
Rum punch a bit expensive but, your in Camden town. I would definitely recommend and go back.
Oh,staff seemed friendly enough to me.Some reviews say otherwise. I take people how i find them towards me.And they seemed friendly enough to me.
C.Amazing food and staff had a really great time and will definitely come back.
N. K.Bit overpriced but still OK for Camden. The goat meat was chewy but the taste is great. The service was very quick. They don't have desserts.
J. L.We went here with a group of friends for a meal and it was absolutely delicious. Best Jamaican food I have had. Authentic feel and great friendly service. Will go back again next time I am in the area.
M. M.A busy bustling authentic cosy Jamaican restaurant, with great ambiance, wonderful food, original cocktails and a menu to die for.
C. C.The jerk chicken here is very tasty and the atmosphere is good. Unfortunately I ordered the jerk chicken Ceasar salad. The jerk flavour wasn't evident.
The Happy hour cocktail was delicious.
When using a foreign credit card, payment must be in GBP.
D.Good was really good but was let down my the service. Not bad just not good either. Need to be a bit more attentive with table service
R. E.Food was excellent and nice very authentic Jamaican style service was very good
C. B.This place is great! The food is excellent and I would definitely recommend the jerk chicken. Service was attentive and very polite. I would also recommend you try the naked pina colada it's super tasty! Will be coming back soon
O. O.The food is Goooood and nice cocktails.. I need not say more 😋
N. N.I had the time of my life at the bar next door. Enjoyed my food in the restaurant part first.
N. C.Service was very slow but the food here is very authentic which is great. Love their cocktails
H. D.Nice vibes, The Food could be better especially for the price they are charging. Very average tasting food.
N. W.Lovely food, friendly staff, nice cocktails, nice atmosphere
M.Went last week with a friend, defo not authentic.
The drinks for the happy hour menu are very limited, however I will say the drink we got which was the " Bird of paradise " was quite strong which was good.
We both had calamari for starter which was really nice & cripsy, the mayo was nice however nothing about it was chilli.
For main I ordered brown stew chicken with rice & peas and my friend ordered the curry mutton with rice & peas. The brown stew I did not like, it was not real authentic brown stew at all, the curry mutton was soft but the taste could have been better.
Service wasn't great, so I did not deem it worthy to pay service charge. it was quite slow. It took them a long time to recognise I wanted something even after I stood up.
I wouldn't highly recommend, however if I was to return I would return it would be for drinks and nibbles.
A. S.Food was delicious as always, they have a good portion size and the cocktails are nice and strong
D. Z.We were here last Sunday, the food was amazing, drinks were flowing but the best part was our waitress Justina! Super bubbly very welcoming, extremelly happy, she made our day! Definitely comming back! Highly recommended ☆☆☆☆☆
E. G.Apart from the covid regulations which seem to be taking the joy out of everything in 2020 the food and cocktails were amazing.
S. S.Nice authentic food, good atmosphere. Staff proper friendly and cocktail bar 🔥!!
D. H.The food was delicious. Hats off to the chef. Atmosphere was lively and relaxed. Great night out
L. B.Jerk salmon and macaroni cheese was very nice. I would go again.
B. S.Only made one trip here so far but it was truly excellent. The staff were pleasant and friendly. We had a couple of really tasty cocktails, mixed to perfection. The food was in good sized portions (not massive) and seriously, properly tasty. it had a nice atmosphere - the lights were low and the music was loud but not too dark to eat and not too loud to talk. I will be returning. Thank you for a lovely meal!
F. R.Once again I popped in at my favorite piece of Jamaica in Camden Town. Once again I struggled, whether to take the famous Curried Goat or maybe the all time classic, the Jerk Mixed Grill. I made my decision and it was sooo good. The unavoidable Black River Iced Tea afterwards made me smile. Lots of sun, lots of soul, lots of love. Like Arnie said: I'll be back. Damn sure.
a. m.Food was delicious as always. Great service and lovely atmosphere. Thank you!
J.Can’t lie was thoroughly impressed with the jerk chicken here, the sauce was just beautiful. Usually I’m not one to eat all my carbs, but with the sauce I wolfed down the rice and peas🤤With plantain being the perfect accompaniment.
Compliments to the chef👏🏽
if it wasn’t for the current climate I would have expressed my delight for his cooking.
The squid and jerk wings were also very nice as an appetiser, the only thing I didn’t enjoy particularly was the mac and cheese.
In addition to the food, Ma petite Jamaica has a lovely chilled out and relaxed setting inside which made me feel comfortable. These coupled with the great music and hospitable staff made eating here an enjoyable experience.
M. M.The food is excellent and so are the cocktails; the best Rum Punch I've had from a restaurant. 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
S. B.Food is great. I love the fish curry! The rum cocktails are a must to try! The decor is colourful, vibrant yet cozy, befitting Camden. At close proximity to the tube station, this is a great place to eat. The toilets are clean too. Only downside is that they don't quite stick to their opening times. We were disappointed on our third visit when we were told that they would open an hour and half later than their scheduled opening time! Service is slow (items are freshly prepared so it's expected, but, even drinks are quite slow to arrive and needs chasing up).
T. C.I would have given five stars because the staff here are so pleasant and welcoming. I feel a bit wrong to say this, but I only give an honest review. The food was not that good at all. My friends chicken curry tasted nice and they said they enjoyed it, but the oxtail stew and jerk chicken were smothered in this weird gravy that tasted as if it had tonnes of sweet chilli sauce in it. I would come here again, but I guess I would stick to the curries. The drinks, on the other hand are really good. Good cocktails, very good music, very helpful, friendly and attentive staff. I wish I could have given them 4 or 5 stars....
G. B.Had an amazing brunch here, the food was amazing and I was served by Jet who was just the best server possible.
f. w.Cosy place the best place to have drink in Camden and nice tasty Jamaican food 🙏
I. A.Food was delicious, drinks were strong, loved the decor. Only missed one star off because we rushed off our table at the end of meal having waited 30minutes to be served. But overall lovely food and drinks would definitely recommend.
l. a.Great food and cocktails with very friendly service
X.Good service, big portions. Spotlessly clean. Went on a concert night so it was super busy for midweek but still managed to get decent service. Would absolutely go back. Macaroni cheese not grainy, chicken tender, ribs fell off the bone. Excellent music - takes you baaaack! We were wining in our seats!
C. M.This was my second visit to the restaurant, returning after what was a fabulous meal the first time some two years prior - oxtail rice and peas.
Social distancing was not exercised by the waitress or waiter and masks were not worn by any of the staff. A squirt of sanitiser at the entrance was all. Tables are in close proximity, a little too close.
The food was disappointing overall and presentation, in my opinion needs refinement. Fried dumplings were very salty - 2 hours later I was still guzzling water, ackee and saltfish with no saltfish, no lemon served with squid to cut rawness and the smell, no coconut in fish dish as labelled, jerk mixed grill arrived covered in gravy? And not a garnish in sight. Best part of the luncheon were the cocktails and the ribs. Hardly a satisfying experience.
w.Great Food & Great Drinks Can't go wrong 🙌👌
G. B. -. H.Came here before Lockdown and my mother and I can't wait to go back.
We decided to go for the platter for two which had Ribs, Chicken wigs, Cassava (hmmmm), Sweet patatoes, Coleslaw. I could have easily ate that all to myself (creedy like that). I was even tempted to go for a curry coat roti. But I would of been there all evening 😂 So I'm heading back for one of these.
We also went in the Happy hour time, so got some great cocktails.
The place has a real cosy atmosphere and a playlist I could sing to almost every song. I love how the decor has been put together to make you feel like back home. It's not a big restaurant, but that is what makes this little gem a place to go. Most of all the service was brilliant from the bar staff to the waitresses, down to the chef. We was delighted to leave them a tip.
Can't wait to go back ♥️
A. M.Thank goodness! What a great little find - oxtail and curry goat were absolutely delicious and tender. Definitely go for this next time I come back! I chose the jerk chicken - tasted quite bbq saucey which is why I've not given this place a full 5 star. The plantain was great as was the coleslaw, the rice was a little dry but still delicious.
C. J.Great ! Stumbled across this place and so glad we did , curried goat and jerk chicken was amazing . Highly recommended
D. e.Food was delicious , drinks fantastic , services was quicky and efficient plus went during happy hours which made the experience eve better
V. W.Great food, great music, great ambiance. Only wish the space was bigger so they could take more bookings. Cocktails are worth it, especially with happy hour deal or bottomless brunch.
O. S.The service is much better than the reviews give it credit for (maybe they've worked on it?) Our waiter was really attentive and friendly. The food came out promptly - but not worryingly quickly. The food was good but the only thing was my curry goat had lots of bones and one actually lodged itself in my gum! 😳 Took a little while to remove which did taint the meal. I would go back but maybe avoid the goat..
K. M.I shared my experience here with my partner yesterday, and I most say the food & drinks were incredible. I had curry goat with rice & peas flavours on point! Definitely recommend I most also they there was a middle age black lady who served cocktails and I’d like to say they were outstanding presentation and good flavours also. Also had fried battered squid with a jerk mayo sauce beautiful. Toilets very clean good music. Your Building in hot weather like this only fall is you need aircon. All in all I’ll definitely be back, also maybe get your fried shrimp back on the menu.
S. A.Amazing customer service. Really authentic Jamaican food, succulent meat, great portions. Only downside was my mocktail was a bit small.
A. W.Okay food. Alcoholic beverages from the one I tasted are very good. Nothing out-of-this-world. The staff were cooperative. The toilets weren't smelly or dirty and the overall restaurant was clean and has lovely decor. It gets quite busy and depending on who's there and how many drinks people have, it will get rowdy. I would go here with a group for a celebration, but I don't think I'd make this place a personal favorite.
H. B.Food was absolutely spot on. I had the wings, ribs, rice and peas, plantain, mac n cheese and a rum cake for dessert. I was in a group of 8 and the food was perfectly timed and the waitress was polite, friendly and helpful throughout the meal. I noticed she paid similar attention to the smaller groups in the restaurant too.
Ribs and wings were spiced to perfection. Good kick but not too hot that the flavour was lost. The mac n cheese was dripping with delicious cheese and the portion was ample. The rum cake nearly killed me it was so delicious; I was too full but was compelled to finish it by my taste buds.
Price for all this was £15 from the lunch menu. Cant argue with that price.
S. K.Excellent food and service with London prices. The curried goat was delicious, tender boneless meat cooked in a well balanced herbed and spiced gravy with a depth of flavour but mild and delicate at the same time.
The bbq ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender.
The squid rings tasted so fresh with the perfect hot spicy and sour sauce.
Enjoyed them thoroughly. Definitely recommend.
S. K.Happy hour makes this place good value with drinks but otherwise, it's average in terms of price. The portions are generous and the food is well seasoned and spiced, though it's not totally authentic jerk. Still tasty. Service is alright. Would definitely go again for my fix, but it misses the smoked, slow cooked taste of real jerk chicken.
C. E.Wicked atmosphere, 10 out of 10 vibe! The new Cottons, my new hang out! If the food matches the music I'm never leaving.
M. T. B.Loved this restaurant! Randomly stumbled upon this place for date night for my fiancé's b'day. We love all Caribbean food and this place did not disappoint! Our host/waiter/bar man was amazing and served us some lovely strong cocktails to go with our meals. Highly recommend for good real Jamaican food - delicious! No pics as the yummy smells were calling us to eat straight away.
J. H.Average food for price.Ridiculous fried calamari 4 bits with a bit of jerk mayonnaise garnish really no taste or love in it!! And waited a very long time 1hour for our mains and it wasn't busy.Nice decoration but that it!!
A. W.The food was fantastic. I went there with my family after my wife was searching for a jamaican restaurant. I had barbecue ribs for starter. the ribs was falling off the bone, they were crispy but yet very succulent and the sauce were to die for. my main was rice and peas with Curry goat. the rice was well seasoned and very tasty and also not too soft or moist. the Curry goat was well done again fallen off the bone but very spicy. .My son For a starter I had fritters which were perfect and to my liking (I recommend this starter).They were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They were well seasoned and very tasty. Overall we grade this restaurant 8/10.
J. W.Fantastic service this evening, brown stewed chicken was incredible. Would 100% recommend to order the dumplings as they were so light and fluffy and perfect to wipe the sauce with. Satisfied my jamaican food craving perfectly
U. R.I was looking for a local restaurant to dine with my wife and niece.
We reserved a table via Open Table at the restaurant yesterday for today.
Upon arrival we were all welcomed by a gentleman who warmly greeted us and seated us at our table.
Drinks were promptly served, Food was presented beautifully and on time, the meal was absolutely amazing, freshly cooked and amazing portions.
The restaurant is clean clorouful and vibrant. you can can enjoy the ambience, the decor, the music.
we all had a great time ....
The Memories that we all made today were because of your establishment.
And we Thank you for your wonderful service
We will be back for my Birthday.
J. V.Every effort was made to accommodate our tastes. I was offered a vegetable stir fry with my jerk fish as I don't eat rice. It was flavour some and crunchy just how I like it. The jerk sauce on the fish was a little too sweet. I shared a free Appleton Rum Shot with the owner (we had one each) after he bought me my birthday cake surprise. It was definitely a night to remember and we will be going back.
B. E.Had a wonderful evening out the food was excellent and the staff was very nice and polite
R. H.Me and my daughter had the mixed grill, and it was fantastic. Cocktails and Mocktails were also excellent, and we could tell they had been perfected! This was our second time visiting, and we will definitely be coming back again!
M. v. d. W.Love this place. Went there with my mother a couple of times. Inside feels like being back in the Caribbean, the manager is very friendly, always great waitresses as well. Food is delicious and fresh. Not always nice when you're craving for a particular dish and it's not available. But food is great, very nice cocktails.
M. E.Fantastic placel/atmosphere customer service second to none. Oxtail and rice delicious, had a fabulous Birthday dinner....
Cocktails on tap....very bad for next day work.
I. H.We had a great evening celebrating a birthday with a party of 15. The restaurant manager and staff were great. The music, food and overall atmosphere was perfect for our party. Everyone left saying they would definitely go back there!
M. B.Amazing food, friendly service, excellent rum and good music. Highly recommended
T. M.I arrive at this marvelous place every couple of days because I enjoy the ambiance that is part of this restaurant. The crew is awfuly cordial and qualified. The service is certainly efficient. Needless to say, the food you eat is great. I visited often and I was always delighted. The payment is fair. I recommend this restaurant to all my friends.
r. b. r. t. U.Went there for my birthday and expected the deals that is advertised on the website. They said those deals are old and no longer available. I only joined this restaurant for the deals that they advertise. Was disappointed about that. The food didn't taste freshly cooked. May have been heated in a microwave and cooked earlier that day or the day before. They also advertise happy hour and they have a huge selection of cocktails but only about 5 are avaible for happy hour which is a shame. On the plus the was very well presented and the portion size was very big. Overall I would say it's ok.
A. P.Great restaurant, true chefs are in the kitchen- you can taste it in the quality and attention paid to the flavor profile of the dish. Highly recommend this spot. Great music and lively atmosphere to match with the Camden area. If you are visiting London, you may want to visit this place twice!
A. D.Amazing food .. Great place for Sunday Brunch. Almost cried when eating the food was that good 👍 😋
P. V.Been here several times and keep coming back. Besides being the place I've brought several visitors to have the outstanding fish and chips with amazing mint flavoured peas, the mix-and-match-your-own-fish is a great deal and has never failed to satiate my love for fish meat.
I'd also like to point out the always friendly service. Either I've gotten lucky or there must be some great management behind this place to invoke such great smiles from the staff on each occasion I've visited. Amazing people that deserve a serious tip.
C. c.I'm french and it is a excellent restaurant. Very good food.it is too good !i'll be back.
J. F.Great food, no, actually it's outstanding! The best Carribbean food I've eaten in a restaurant and it came quickly too. Wonderful, friendly staff and management. Will be going again. Try it out you won't be disappointed!
C. S.Absolutely loved the food and atmosphere here. Went in the weekend and it was jam-packed and service was a bit hectic, many of the main dishes were sold out as well. But they did their best to accommodate and it was a great experience of authentic Caribbean food.
J. J.The drinks are strong and make u wanna have more. The food is good, portions are decent. This is my second time here and this put it at very high spec for Camden and for Jamaican restaurant. But the drinks damnnnnn. The vibe and the chilled atmosphere is crazy good. Can't say anything bad
N. A.Staffs was nice and friendly and food was amazing loved my guniness punch can't wait to go back 😊

Thank you for a great birthday👌🏾👏🏾
L. B.Absolutely love this place, food is on point, vibe is on point and so are the drinks.
R.Friendly staff, amazing food, I had the fritters, a side of macaroni cheese and the brown stew chicken, which I have to say, was the tastiest that I have ever eaten. To drink, I had a delicious Pina Colada, the cost was very reasonable. I can't wait to go back.
D. D.Excellent value for money! The food is delicious, portions are huge and traditional Jamaican compared to similar restaurants. The staff are a slightly moody but on balance, the overall experience compensates for this. Well worth a visit
J. A.This was my second visit. Took my friend here for a birthday meal and the experience was wonderful. The food and drinks were yum. Must try the succulent jerk wings and the birds of paradise cocktail. Customer service was good too!
A. B. (.A lovely place, great food, great atmosphere and remarkable value for this part of London. As a bonus we wanted to get in and out quickly for a concert at The Roundhouse and service both for initial drinks and the food was prompt. Will definitely come again with family and friends. Highly recommended.
B. B.Nice cute place! Food was good, went for bottomless brunch. Punch kept on coming. Good customer service!
P. V.Really nice atmosphere and staff is friendly. Delicious oxtail stew!!
P. B. (.I love the food and vibe here. If I could, I would be here most weekend ends.
The bar man when you first enter the place is an absolute comedian as well. Definitely makes the night.
The only thing that stops me from giving it a perfect score is that the wait can be quite long. Of course you can counter this by booking a table but if you are feeling spontaneous, this probably isn't the place.
Overall, book a table, greet the bar man and have a good night.
b.My favourite Caribbean restaurant in London! I go here regular and feature them on my food blog (@dizzyeatz) a lot! I always go for the jerk platter and share a side of the mac and cheese! the drinks are on point and the prices are exceptional! if your in Camden then please go and eat here!
M. H.Great food and cocktails- be sure to try the Rum punch🙂👍🏾❤
t. s.Great place to eat, celebrate or just enjoy. Dumplings with Ackee & Saltfish plus fritters are delicious. Had one too many cocktails as the were so nice. See you soon Ma 😋
A.Had half a chicken from the jerk pit! Was very nice and tasty!! The chilli sauce was just from a bottle like you get in tesco would be nice if it was an authentic one made on premesis, i also found one of the waitresses a little bit rude that is why it's not a 5 star experience.
D. G.Had a really delicious meal here on Tuesday night.
Pleasant ambience. Lovely staff. Timely service. Perfectly cooked salt and pepper squid, breaded cod and pan fried trout. Ample portions. It was just yummy!
Will definitely go back soon.
N.REAL authentic Caribbean food! service was super fast, we ordered our starters and they came out within minutes. Really friendly staff and the music was banging! Will definitely be returning
C. C. 2.Service is delightful 😊 and food tasty 😋
H. S.We went to the bottomless brunch. The jerk pork wrap was amazing. Good value for money. Thanks
M. B.Great food! Normally I'm skeptical about fried dumplings, but they were just how I liked them (sweet)
- Curry goat: Had the right amount of spice
- Rice & Peas: Can't complain
- Coleslaw: Just how I make it at home
Will definitely take a walk down there when it's warmer (I used a delivery service)
s. k.Food and drinks were delicious but service was patchy, had to keep asking our waitress for the same drinks order and bill several times
H. M.Absolutely Love this place! Delicious food, the curried goat is melt in the mouth scrumptious and the chicken and ribs are banging! Lovely friendly staff, great music, great vibes! Cannot wait to go back!
A.Fantastic restaurant. Authentic food, good price, really friendly staff with good customer service. The restaurant were happy to accommodate us as a party of 13 and allowed us to move around the tables until we were happy.
Great meal! Definitely recomend 😊
T. B.The food was OK, I'm Jamaican so I know how it should taste. Few complaints but the manager Jean Pierre was spot on. He handled everything professionally and you could see that he wasn't just being a manger but he was running around like the staff engaging with the customers. I couldn't leave without giving him a tip. Because of that nothing else matters and I would go back. Obviously I would order something else. Well done Jean Pierre (hopefully correct spelling)
S. R.The place is really nice, the decor is lovely so its good for pictures. It would have gotten five stars but the staff seemed a little confused in what they were doing. Well the one serving us. The food is nice and alot better then turtle bay which I have a suspicious feeling made me ill. If its your birthday they play you a song. The bathroom is unisex which was an experience but has great lighting for selfies.
M. W. (.Came in here for a quick bite before a gig so getting fed quickly was on our minds! Lovely, spicy and flavorsome food delivered in plentiful quantities and delivered to us sharpish!
Was very impressed and will be back to visit again!
l. D.Love the food, service and ambiance 👌🏾
S. G.The food was delicious and the customer service was great. Thank you 💯
i. b.Great food at reasonable prices, will be back :)
S. D.Delicious food! We had a jerk mixed grill and a fish curry. Friendly. Music was really good and the artwork was inspiring including some nice custom work - flowers and inspirational quotes such as “Emancipate yourself from mental slavery; none but ourselves can free ourselves from mental Alavert” . Service is a tiny bit slow. Would prefer pina colada without cinnamon but the the taste was delicious with the double cream added! Will visit again.
s. s.The waiting was so long but it's worth it ... my boyfriend is carribean so he knows the authentic taste. The starter was festival with barbecue chicken very tasty! the chili jam was just useless and not spicy at all.
We've had two cocktails, the pina colada was a total disappointment and it tasted like a slushie.
The main course was very tasty and so nicely spiced (curry goat roti plus extra rice n peas nicely offered for free because of a mistake). It was a bit overcooked with traces of bones).
Brown stew chicken was great and tasty! everything was made to order and fresh.The plantain was not cooked tho.
The owner was attentive to us and asked if everything was ok.
M. R.A bit unorganised on a busy night with basic errors we shouldn't have to put up with (mains coming out before starters finished because the kitchen made a mistake?????!!!). Food was ok; taste was good but the quality was not the best (FYI kitchen greasy cassava means the oil is not hot enough).
Trying to get waitresses attention for drinks also not great, as was being made to move tables. Would have been more acceptable if there was some sort of an apology, but nothing.
All small things, but not good enough when you're spending £50 per head.
K. D.We had a fantastic time in this restaurant. We enjoyed the wonderful environment and the food. The waiters are super personal. I am content we eventually decided to visit this spot.
C. C.The best Caribbean food in London in my opinion and great drinks. Staff are amazing and always welcoming. That's why I travel from South East to Camden for the goodness.
C. R.Loved it!! simple and delicious. starters and mains were great, and the staff is friendly, efficient, and incredibly helpful. Can't recommend this place enough for a no fuss, delicious fish meal. 5 stars without a doubt
A. W.Lovely place to chill great music
A. B.This place had such a chill vibe, and was so beautifully decorated with a true Caribbean aesthetic. The service was also very personal and friendly, and the food really was simply out of this world (I would give ten stars if i could). I will definitely be coming back.
T.Great customer service . Friendly staff
I ordered curry goat rice n please with mac n cheese. Portion size was good. Taste was amazing! I cannot fault it. Will deffo go back !
Didnt get 5 star because the prices were pricey and no desserts lol
A. K.Lovely atmosphere and food, just slightly cramped seating. The person behind kept elbowing me in the back!
M. G.So I have gone there several times as food and cocktails is good, however cocktails on two occasions was more like a mocktail. No alcohol. I ordered a guiness punch and it tasted bitter. Not sweet like usual. When I took it back the bar attendant,she said there was an ingredient missing as they run out of a key ingredient. So dah tell me before you make it. Don't just continue to make it. Ordered another drink but that was just as disappointing. Food was lovely though.
The guy who was serving us was off point as well. Sort out the cocktails, your slacking. I know times are hard but, put some alcohol in it. Also have all the ingredients. Ain't you expecting customers? There are only 10 cocktails on the menu. Kiss my teeth. Fix up look sharp. Don't follow Cottons👎🏾
L.Really good meal, friendly staff, spacious seating and reasonable prices. I will definetly return to this restaurant. 😆
30/05/16 - Update the food can take a while to come but trust me it is well worth the wait. The food is really great and there is a very good relaxed atmosphere. I have now been there 4 times and each time the food is great.
15/04/17 - Update...I have read various reviews regarding this restaurant due to my suggestion to visit it. Therefore I thought that I should revisit this location to see whether my review is still upholding. My findings are as follows:
Waiting time before I was offered seating for 2 - 20-30 minutes.
Time I was seated after being offreed seating - I wasn't seated as the individual did not return (waited for 5 -10 more minutes).
Available tables in sight - 5 empty tables (mixture of 2 seats, 4 seats & 6 seats) which were already set up to be used.
Reserved tables - None
After 25 -40 minutes of waiting my partner and I left. On seeing us leaving the restaurant an individual approached us. However, after waiting for so long we decided that it was probably best to leave the establishment. Unfortunately this location is no longer that which it was when I first visited therefore I do not think that I will return. I cannot wholeheartedly suggest this restaurant merly due to seating times and unless you are happy to wait for an unreasonable amount of time I would suggest alternative eating arrangements. I am currently unable to advise whether the food is still good due to leaving the establishment.
I apologise to any of the individuals who I advised to eat at this location and i feel upset that such a good location has allowed its standards to slip to such a degree. Unfortunately I had no idea that the waiting time to be seated had increased to such an unreasonable level.
K. B.The ambience of this place is so lovely and the staff are very friendly. The food tasted very fresh (you can tell that it is made with love) and we felt that the prices were very reasonable. Definitely visiting again - a total gem! 💕
M.Went to MP for the first time yesterday for a birthday meal and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The food was on point as were the cocktails and the customer service. Will definitely recommend and be going back.
R. “. A.This place is a hidden treasure! Amazing food and cocktails, customer service was on point too. There was a few young boys misbehaving outside the restaurant, this was very off putting and intimidating.....
A. R.The food wasnt amazing . I would say it was average. The Mac n cheese was really good thou. I suppose if you don't want authentic Jamaican food it will do the trick.
E. B.Very nice service, friendly staff, good place to go... Really good food...
J. G.First time and i know i will be back. The coctails are lovely and the food????? The curry goat and rice was jus amazing by far one of the best ive ever had. The service was very good friendly staff especially the man at the bar. I will tell all my family and friends about this place :-)
J. B.Cozy place with great music, food serving was a bit slow but the food was good and so was the cocktails. Listening to the music while you wait made it worthwhile. Nice vibe.
E. M.Great food, simply, perfectly cooked. You can choose what fish you want to eat and have it cooked exactly like you want. Nice choice of sides too. The place is simply elegant, almost minimalistic. Service is quick and staff nice.
n. d.Great food excellent prices great service 👍👍👍
A. K.Great friendly service and tasty food
A. S.Went on a Saturday afternoong (2016-04-16).
Very authentic. Nice decor with dancehall/reggae music playing, but not at a volume that makes it difficult to speak.
Quite veggie unfriendly (but honestly, Jamaica is pretty veggie unfriendly as well) but for the meat eaters, it was really good and authentic.
Oxtail was very good (no spice embedded - they have a scotch bonnet sauce on the table you can add to taste) as well as the friend plantain, rice and peas, and festival (more like... Scotchies Jamaica type festival than like Island Grill). They have all the right rums behind the bar (Appleton! White Overproof) and the rum punch was very tasty (this one didn't taste very strong/Jamaican, but was a delicious drink in it's own rite).
For best value for money get there before 4pm for a 'Belly Full' meal (even on the weekend). Service was very good/friendly when we went - my best Jamaican food experience in London to date!
J. M.The food was exceptional, the mojitos were perfect, and the place had a genuinely great atmosphere. My only moan would be about the rather long wait to be served. Otherwise a fab experience.
N. S.Smashing food, the Fish Escovitch pictured!! Would definitely recommend.
L. S.Great place, great drinks, great food (jerk pork much recommended)!
M. W.Just go there, it's da bomb. My life is now complete, might be slightly sozzled due to the fact the cocktails are on point. Peace out
k. c.Very good food and friendly staff . It's the weekend and must get very busy as most tables were booked . All in all would recommend if you feel like a taste of the Caribbean .
B. Z.Fantastic food as always. Only thing is they are always missing certain things from the menu. I wonder if they even stock any kind of fish?
D. C.I love it the food was absolutely lovely
P. J.Beautiful music..food..setting..staff..
A. G.It was so good I would recommend it to anyone & am definitely going back there💯 Food was on point, Service was excellent & the atmosphere was great. Best Caribbean food I had in yrs.
L.Well cooked tasty fish and good sauce. I had a steamed one with green vegetable and soy sauce, it was very tasty and perfectly cooked. My only downside, i would have wished a little bit more vegetable.
B.Small, Can Be Intimate For Two Or Cosy & Nice With Friends/Family.. Great Atmosphere & Fantastic Music Throughout... Food On Point, Jerk Is Proper Eye Watering Jerk - AS IT SHOULD BE.
Rice & Peas Is Mwoh
Curry Chicken DE-LIC-IOUS & The Mixed Grill Was Hmm Hmmm Hmmmm
YEESSSSSSSS -Please Go 😋
H. T.A great intimate venue for hosting a birthday party. The bar staff were great, the waitresses were brilliant and patient, the food was excellent and the management were super helpful and accommodating.
S. N.Would have tasted much nicer if all the food on my plate were hot.
M. L.High quality food that is flavoursome and spicy along with great customer service and a buzzing atmosphere. The only criticism is that the portions could be slightly bigger.
B.Great food, great cocktails. Loved it thank you!
H. D.It was a fantastic experience real Jamaican food
T.Great vibes here. The staff are jolly. Food is flavourful. Perfect spot for a hidden summer lunch/dinner. Take the backroads up to Primrose Hill when you’re done. Thank me later!
M. A.Lovely caribbean restaurant, enough food to eat and cocktails to die for and ones that have at least 7 types of rum in one glass 👌😁. Must try and good atmosphere as well as music playing through out 👏👏
A. M.Really nice ambience. Authentic cuisine and authentic waiting staff who are prompt and happy to help. A particularly enthusiastic manager 😁, who made the experience all the more pleasant.
P. E. F.Food is great, but means you have to wait for it for an hour. Have been here many times, every single time I had to wait for more than 40 mins. Come here when you do not have anything else going on. One kitchen staff, one waiter both very friendly !
M. R.Excellent food! A proper taste of my Jamaican home food. The staff are friendly, the food is served in a timely fashion, and the portions are pleasing 😊😊.
h. l.Nice for a night out or a small party. Food was okay, there is a good amount of choice. It is quite lively/loud.
J. B.The food and drinks were very tasty. Nice menu. Good music selection. Would definately come and recommend to other's.
A. G.Relaxed and friendly atmosphere for lunch with friends. Sea bass in an aubergine and coconut curry the highlight of four good dishes.
D. P.Nice place, staff was lovely and food was fantastic. Wlll go again
A. C.Nice place to meet up and eat some tasty Jamaican food. BBQ pork ribs and curried goat was very well seasoned and just enough spice.
F. F.Good Jamaican food and cocktails 🍹 good service 🍹🍹
S. M.Great food and Cocktails. Also for someone who prefers crispy chicken wings the wings here still get 8 out of 10. That's how much I liked them 😊
M. T.The food is good and the service is friendly, but on many occasions they've been all out of more than one fish from the selection of 5 in the main dish/offer, and they rarely have the local beer in stock either, so it's often a bit of a disappointing experience.
M. J. K.Authentic flavours. Shame about all the bone spliters, grizzle and fat in the curry Goat. Poor service by timid, amateurish young waiter. Decor and music, spot on.
B.Amazing food and cocktails and great service.
D. D.Food was fantastic! Service was great as well 👍🏾
M. T.Tried the spicy ribs and chicken wings. Best lunch!
P.Great food, great atmosphere and great staff. The only drawback was there was no desert but we made up for it by having extra cocktails 😀
g. w.Authentic, tasty cuisine. Good cocktails
S. D.Great food at great price. Good service from the waitress despite the number of heads she was attending to.
Z. G.Jamaica in Camden!
Good food, good vibes and Caribbean staff!
Everyone is polite and friendly and the rum punch is reeeeal good!
I'll be back for date night & with friends!
k. j.I'm Caribbean (Jamaican mainly) this is the cuisine I'm used to and this place was like popping into a little diner in Mobay. This yah food can nyam. The food sweet, the drinks dem sing jamaica! The shop name right because yes, yes it did feel like my lickle piece a jamaica. It was mine and as the saying goes "Jamaica land we love". Visit the place yes.tell your friend dem. Jamaica seasonings and flavours - yes. Waiting staff was a little pushed to their limit but they were so friendly and accommodating you could see them trying hard and that they cared. Visit nuh Man! #SexyAckeeSaltfishandDumpling #SexyOxtail
D. S. J.Food was good, dishes are authentic Jamaican, service could have been better though some dishes took way to long.

D. S.Great service & atmosphere, food authentic and delicious cocktails tasty.
All round a lovely little restaurant.
T. C.Food was good, place is quite cosy but very small, food portion was good for what we paid, but music was way too loud, felt like a club at times.
S. H.Great Jerk, however I do think the evening menu is overpriced and the drinks too. Also sometimes I feel treated with distain because of poor service
L. P.Good atmosphere. Nice staff. Portion sizes are super generous for the price and the food is honest and tasty.
G. P.Probably the best Jamaican restaurant in North london.its very clean with open kitchen.staff is super accommodating and cocktails superrrr!Is basically 30 seconds from the station*Camden town station*.the food I feel for once I'm not ripped off!portions huge and it feels like it's made with love from a grandad or grandma!!lov ittttt!!!

D. J.Loved it here, great food , great cocktails lovely service. Just like hole cooking
D. C.Great service and very friendly. Good background music. Recommend the goat curry rice and peas. Excellent value for money.
D. G.They serve vegan pina colada, which seems to be a task for most restaurants for some odd reason. Haven't tasted their food though.
D. C.Had to wait quite a while for our table, but that was due to an overrunning larger booking, which is forgiveable, seeing as the food was absolutely amazing
R. d. t.The food is GOOD and the sizes are healthy, I had the curry goat and I have to admit one of the best I've had from a shop/restaurant
D. D.Jamaican food was awesome (but spicy)! Great place with excellent service, friendly crowd, great food quality and fair prices.
