A Caribbean restaurant that specialises in Jerk chicken and pork. Honestly, the food here is…read moreamazing, fresh and authentic. There are a lot of Caribbean takeaways out there, most offering a wide range of food including jerk chicken but this place is a step above the rest because they actually Jerk the meat over a coal fire. Their menu is simple but tasty, offering a range of accompaniments to your meal like rice & peas, sweet potato chips, and festivals. Their coleslaw is also delicious - I had to order an extra portion! It's a family run establishment and the staff are super friendly. The restaurant are currently applying for their liquor license so they don't sell alcohol at the moment but they are quite happy for you to bring your own booze to enjoy with your meal. So, if your in the South London-Sydenham area I would definitely recommend you try this place out!

Been on the hunt for Jamaican food since we moved to London; it's not enough to get it once a year…read moreat family parties or carnival! Used Yelp to search for carribean places and found this gem :-) Authentic Jamaican home cooked food; great taste and warm friendly smile and service. There was an inside and outside seating area; but we didn't stay as we took the food to go; but there were quite a few people sitting and they all complimented the food when they came in to pay. Sunday's they do a buffet from 1pm, so we will def be back to try that. Seems u need to get there quick tho, cause when we got there at 5pm it was all gone and cleared up already :-)

Husband and his father had jerk chicken and both loved it. The owner and chefs were pretty talkative and friendly and kept offering us different rums haha. Very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Only bad thing was that the young waitress took my plate away when I was taking a break from eating. I was pretty mad about it. It was delicious and she stole my food.

I will definitely be back!

Trinidadian Takeaway of Exceptional Quality - My Fave Carib Take Out In London - Trini & Tobago…read more'Caribbean' Food Rules! If you are used to the ubiquitous Caribbean Jerk Chicken and have not yet tried Trini food, go on be adventurous widen your culinary palette and get yourself down to Roti Jouper, you will not be disappointed! To describe Roti Jouper merely as a Caribbean Takeaway is so missing something that distinguishes this and The Shepherd's Bush take-out from all the other Carib Takeaways. What makes this place so special? It is an authentic Trinidadian Takeaway, the creations from this beautiful island are distinctly different from the rest of the Caribbean. That this place is always busy speaks volumes, having previously visited Trinidad & Tobago I can vouch that the delicious wide ranging menu is 100% authentic. The cheerful staff who work here from these islands serve you with a smile and help to create a 'buzz.' On the menu there is far more to explore than just the overhead displays, check out the mouth watering Mac Cheese cakes and bread. Also so much from the menu you can freeze, so well worth the effort to stock up if you have some distance to travel. Roti Jouper was actually discovered quite by accident, and one very positive outcome after my dear friend from Trinidad had been robbed of a purse ( eventually returned intact minus all the cash bar £1 ) seeking solace at a café outside Archway Tube Station, we struck up conversation after picking up a Trini accent, 'if you want authentic Trini food, do get yourselves down to Roti Jouper in Clapham and mention that Raij Paul Barrackpoor sent you' Within five minutes we were on our way, just round the corner from Clapham North on the Northern Line, or Clapham High St on the Overground, and wow we were soon transported back to Trinidad. Ordered a massive takeout, which my dear friend took back to her flat in Portslade Brighton. On 16th October I popped back for another order so heavy that the canvas bag came apart at the seams, this will soon be on its way with me back to Brighton, and thanks for the very generous 'extras.'

I am admittingly a Trini food novice so I'm rating this place based on my tastebuds. The food is…read moredelicious. I got the doubles and whilst I was surprised the filling had the texture of refried beans (rather than the whole chickpeas I had at a roti place in Stokie), it was delicious and a bit spicy. I could have devoured two of them! I also got the shrimp roti with all four of the veg fillings option. However, opening it at home, it was heavy on the chickpeas and spinach but I didn't detect pumpkin. Oh well! It still tasted fantastic (and is not as spicy as the doubles). For a total of £6.50 I had two dinners. Score. I am deducting a star bc it's cash only. C'mon guys, it's 2017, get with the program!

This little cafe is part of a very small chain, a chain of, maybe, three links. My family and I…read morestopped in here for a bit to eat around lunchtime. The first glance was favorable. Clean like the home of someone with OCD and bright. There were only three small tables and six chairs I believe. The girl at the counter was quite friendly. She chatted easily, smiled like the moon was made of cheese and that was the most excellent news since Bill and Ted and was very helpful in recommending what to eat. We settled on goat curry with rice and beans (called peas I think) along with a fish patty and a vegetable patty. The food, though maybe not a vegetarian's delight nor a health freak's idea of fun, was scrumptious. The patties were flaky as an ex-hippy who can't give up their flower child days and perfectly spicy. The curry was flavorful. I've never eaten goat and even though goats eat everything, they've never eaten me, but I'd eat goat again even though I haven't given goat a fair chance to chomp at my fingers. The rice had a hint of coconut which transported you across the oceans to a sunnier place with blue ocean and sandy beaches (otherwise known as Slovakia). The meal filled us right up like a car at a petrol station and stuck to our bones like your tongue to a frozen pole when you try to lick it.

Having worked about a 10 minutes walk from here, I was a bit of a regular and it didn't hurt that they offered a lunchtime special for £3.50. The stewed chicken with rice & peas is delicious. I have never eaten in but the staff are friendly and I reckon it would be a pretty sound experience.

Faye, the creative mind behind Kaieteur Kitchen, is such a nice person and I loved putting the menu together for this event: I especially loved how "old school" we worked together: I visited her at her kitchen and we sat down to discuss the menu. Her specialty is Guyanese cuisine, and not having had the pleasure of trying that cuisine myself, I let her steer the discussion. It was so nice to sit there with her, while all around us, her staff was preparing food for the lunch rush and another catering gig. On the day of the event, Faye's staff set up the buffet and dished out the food for all of my 75 guests. It was all so smooth and I can highly recommend inviting Faye to cook for your next gathering.
