    Lovely staff, beautiful venue and the food was 10/10 - I had the ackee and saltfish cakes to start and curry goat with rice and peas for my main. Portions are decent, you will not leave hungry that’s for sure. Fun fact for those that don’t know the local area (us South Londoners), it’s literally next door to Dalston junction station (exit left when you go up the platform stairs). Dalton Kingsland is also a short walk but we made the mistake of following google maps and taking a left turn on Dalston lane. You’re better off continuing along the main road and taking the next left if coming from kingsland.

    It’s my second time within a month. The food is superb and I didn’t leave a crumb on my plate. I will most probably will be back and love the oyster mushrooms. Can’t get enough of them

    Amazing taste, flavor, value and service. I ordered the fried chicken with rice and peas and a side of plantains; started with the avocado salad and it was wonderful. Then Mr. Roger himself, served me a bit of curry goat and it was divine!!!! Go in and give it a go. Can’t wait to go there again
