Rhythm Kitchen Walthamstow

Caribbean style afternoon tea. Delicious 😋 assortment of tasty Jamaica cuisine. Very well thought out menu leaving you very sated. I gave 4 stars as the Mango Jerk Chicken wings was not enough😨. This is a spot😊

The food is limited if you have allergens. The staff kept forgetting to bring out dishes just overall didn’t feel like this was a great experience. The oil for the chips and plantain is the same that why use for fish which isn’t great either.

I had a really great time at this establishment. & as always I’ll give an honest review. Context: My friend was holding her wedding party get together in the establishment. We were a group of (roughly) 33 people. There was one table left for general public to sit and wait for their orders but we took over a majority of the space. Service: The staff were really friendly and made sure that we had our food served nice and hot. Being that we were a large group they gave us notice that our food would come out in waves and that we should tuck right in and not wait for all the dishes to come out. It’s a small kitchen so it couldn’t hold all the food until ready to go. This was appreciated as we all preferred to have it hot and ready and would rather not wait. Drinks - Although it took some time for the drinks to come they were a nice blend. Again it’s understandable that it took longer than expected as they were serving our group as one and not separate tables. I ordered two mocktail sunrises- yum. Sometimes the staff would forget whose drink or food belonged to who. However, it also didn’t help that some individuals in the group also weren’t didn’t seem sure of their own order (LOL). We worked together to make sure everyone got the right drinks and food. Food: I ordered curried goat roti rice and pease with plantain. The food was hot ! The curried goat tasted fresh and had good amount of spice. The roti was fresh and fluffy. Good ratio of curried goat to roti bread. The rice was nicely cooked and the plantain was perfectly ripe and cooked to perfection. Great portion size and worth every penny. I wasn’t able to finish so they provided containers to take home. A few people the ordered the mango wings. I didn’t taste them but they smelt amazing. One person bit into the wing and it seemed to be red however the staff assured her that this sometimes happens due to the way the wings are cut. No one else had an issue with their wings. Being that the rest of the wings were fine, and the mains was on the way, the staff packed additional wings to go as a good will gesture. My friends ordered the salmon. They were very happy with the cut as it was nice and thick. Cutting into the salmon , it was perfectly cooked - not too dry and not too pink. My friends have different pallets: One friend said hers was seasoned perfectly and the other felt like it was on the salter side. Overall we all had a good experience and the staff managed our group very well. Although the space was packed , they allowed us to play a short game (questionnaire) and some of the general public that came in also had a laugh. Sorting the bill was quick and easy we all split the bill. (£5 deposit + £28 p/p) and we had to thank the staff and the chef for their great service. I’d definitely be returning. Anyone reading should swing by too. The food and service didn’t disappoint. Parking: There is free parking in the area after 6:30pm. I parked at 6pm on the road opposite the restaurant and hoped for the best. I didn’t get a ticket but again parking warded can appear like genies- so be mindful. 👍🏾
