Ayannas Canary Wharf

Caribbean fine dining freshly cooked food on the menu and good cocktails. Ok service and ambiance, sweet reggae music in the background. Grand piano played on Saturday's which will resume again for Valentine's. If you drive parking is an issue limited spaces pay and display only. Double yellow lines and prohibited areas in operation. Engaging transport or use cab services would be a better choice.

We didn't book ahead but as we showed up early they let us in first. We really enjoyed the tasty food, friendly service, and Carribbean vibes. The foods presentation was excellent adding to it's visual appeal, and the rum punch was an amazing drink to accompany it all. There is no physical menu at the restaurant, either look it up online or scan the QR code.

If you're on the fence about visiting Ayannas, get off it. You'll walk into an intimate space reminiscent of my now 2nd favourite London restaurant: Sparrow. Ayannas takes the top spot from the quality of this focused menu to the well-balanced cocktails and overall presentation. Flawless guest service, food, and drink. It was a quiet night - we were the first guests to arrive for dinner at 7pm - and the owner took this as an opportunity to get us checked in at a comfortable pace. She was even gracious enough to push back our booking time as we were having delays in transit. We enjoyed the boneless curry goat and braised oxtail with rice & peas, alongside freshly made coleslaw and a rich mac & cheese. Very satisfying meal, both in terms of portion size and taste. We didn't have room for dessert but will definitely return to try the chocolate and rum cakes. All in all, Ayannas menu is a true love letter to Jamaican cuisine - highly recommend.
