“AHH this local restaurant never ceases to disappoint on the quality of meat, portion sizes, cost, flavor and haphazard service. Today was the last time I will order from this place. Save your money,learn how to cook west Indian food yourself !”

“First thing is first I live local an i tend to support my local businesses, so at 2200 I went to "Kingston Jerk Hut London" an i got charged £8 for the soup ok fair enough. I ordered a large chicken soup an i basically got dumplings, onions,cabbage carrots. Oh yeah the best bit is they basically gave me bones for chicken to the point I looked at it an just couldn't stomach to eat it. An being served by people of your own heritage an he looked in the mirror looked in the pot an thought hmm him nah go know till him reach home. How would you serve me this? If I could post the video I actually would ive never felt so angry as I suffer with health issues so I dont tend to really eat out an for this to happen im taking it back to the shop tomorrow an im looking to get my money back or im reporting it. Im livid cause now im starving an there is nowhere really for me to get food to eat.”

“After being away for two years, this place still rocks! Ordered online just before the closing time. The worker called me to make sure to correct my mistake in the order, and most importantly, the chicken and rice and beans are still the very best quality you can get in London. Spot on, and I will definitely come back, already this week.”

“I wouldn’t recommend eating here. The food is of a poor standard - it tastes bad & seems to have been prepared poorly too. You can see how the food was advertised vs. how I received my food. This is a violation to Kingston. This is not Kingston! If you want some good jerk chicken in London, go to Lulu’s in Stroud Green/Finsbury Park. This is not it. The service wasn’t bad, though it wasn’t great. It’s typical of a Caribbean restaurant in London. The atmosphere has potential, though it’s not a vibe to dine in. The wall art is peeling off & it just doesn’t have the dine-in vibe.”

Customer Review Summary
Jerk chicken with rice and peas is what reviewers praise most, with several calling the portions huge and filling and the Caribbean food great value. Diners describe a family run takeaway where the woman serving is friendly and talkative, and one says a worker phoned to fix a mistake in an online order. One reviewer calls the chicken and rice and beans the very best quality in London. The criticism is just as specific. Some say the food was not freshly made, tasted poor and looked nothing like how it was advertised, and one complains of poor meat quality, small portions and haphazard service. A large chicken soup arrived as mostly dumplings, onions, cabbage and carrots, with bones in place of chicken meat. Another reviewer says the peeling wall art makes the room feel wrong for dining in, and that lunch came in a takeaway box with a plastic fork too weak for the chicken, so a knife had to be requested.
