Quick info
About Taste of Paradise
On Rye Lane in London, Taste of Paradise serves Caribbean food on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken. The curry goat comes with plantain included at no extra charge, pairing a slow-cooked main with a side that elsewhere often costs more. The kitchen works from a Caribbean menu, and orders are taken as customers arrive rather than by booking. The format keeps things simple for anyone stopping in on Rye Lane without planning ahead, and the plantain-inclusive curry goat stands as the clearest example of how the pricing works across the menu.

Customer Review Summary
Diners come for authentic Jamaican cooking in generous portions, with the curry goat singled out as huge and served with plantain at no extra charge. Several describe the food as consistently great, fresh and full of flavour, and one calls it the best Caribbean meal they have had in a long time, passing compliments to the chef. Close behind is the staff, repeatedly described as friendly, warm, polite and helpful, with one reviewer saying they had never felt so welcomed in a Caribbean restaurant. A few mention a friendly atmosphere, a very clean room, and music playing that adds to the meal. Good pricing gets a mention too. One regular who travels in from Kent says they return every visit, and several urge others to try it.
