We had a lovely time at Negril with great food and fabulous service! We had a really nice table outside surrounded by plants and flowers.
Tasty Jamaican food, which seemed pretty authentic! Plantain and the jerk gravy was the highlight. With the good service, 10/10 would recommend to a friend
I really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere which was very laid back. The music was at a level that you could hold a conversation without shouting. I would definitely go again
A great menu, with loads to choose from and genuine, aunthentic Caribbean food. We were more than satisfied with the taste and portion size and look forward to our next visit!
My 3rd tome of eating here. The food is still wonderful. It was busy so we had to wait a little to pay bill once being served but waiter was polite, warm and friendly. He recommended a Brixton beer which my brother enjoyed. They can easily adjust menu to cater for intolerances with lots of choice in the menu. Fabulous! We will go back again!
Great service surpassed only by delicious, authentic food. I had the curry goat but got food envy from the jerk chicken and veggie stew. I'll definitely be back!
The service and the food is exemplary - great authentic Caribbean food at reasonable price (not forgetting more than ample portions even for greedy people like me, lol!) Well done Negril, I will keep returning and bringing more people!
Food was great. The service was very good. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Really nice experience but the toilets could definitely be better.
Negril has a lovely relaxed atmosphere, and upon entry we were greeted warmly. Following being seated, we ordered drinks ( homemade ginger beer & lemonade), which were delicious. We tucked in to saltfish fritters, chicken curry and grilled seabass, which were truly scrumptious. I would recommend Negril to everyone, you won't be disappointed.
Great service with good range of well made food. The jerk chicken is great and all sides are of great quality. Lovely ambience and great location
Negril was a fabulous night out. The service was excellent and the food was exceptional. I would highly recommend Negril food fab, ambiance super please go a visit Negril
I have lot of love for Negril as it has always provided delicious food at the right price in a relaxed, unfussed setting Ever since I lived in South London , I've tried to engineer friend meet ups at Negril when possible This hasn't changed even though I now live in Essex. Long may Negril reign as the best West Indian Kitchen in London.
The food was as authentic as could get, very tasty. Excellent service, waiter was very attentive. We will definitely be returning to taste other dishes.
The food and service is consistently great. Warm and friendly with a great soundtrack. The veggie selections are good but could do with maybe 2 more options. Will be returning soon.
Amazing food, only negative was that they had ran out of rice and peas so we had to have boiled rice, but my partner declared it was the best Jamaican he has ever eaten - which is a BIG deal coming from him! Cocktails were also amazing and the staff very friendly. Great place I will be recommending to friends and I will be back again!
Nice! The food was authentic, tasty and finger-licking good. The atmosphere was laidback with a decent service. I'll definitely go there again and recommend it for a proper West Indian experience!
Everyone enjoyed the food which tasted great . I had a pina colada cocktail which was one of the best i've had. The service was great - the only downside was the seating was very cramped..
Negril never fails to be anything but brilliant . The goat curry the plantain the cocktails The staff excellent Highly recommend d the place to anyone and everyone just not when I am there as I would like a table.
I love the fact the waiters and waitress are mostly carribean as well as the kitchen staff. Saltfish fritters were on point as well as the plaintains . My only criticism is the mains - jerk chicken was mor of a bland roast chicken, sea bass was bland with no flavour. We spoke to staff about this and they informed that they had to remove the spice to suit the palets of the European customers, how about customers who want to taste authentic jerk chicken? We recommend adopting nandos style were you can order your chicken according to spice, chef was not willing to that do that but willing to marinate the chicken over night to get some flavour- a start I guess but such a shame african- carribean customers are no longer being catered to in Brixton!
Really good food,alittle too cramped inside. Music from next door was annoying. I would definately go back again. Curry chicken wrap was excellent. Also sweet potatoe fries.
Had a chilled relaxed time with friends and family for my Birthday. Only criticism is that a couple of items had run out on the menu and our booking was for 6PM. Going back on a summer night to experience eating outside, hopefully full menu available. :-)
had the jerk chicken platta .. Which came with plaintain , rice n peas, gravy, salad , fish fritters ..great food good price .. Xx
Very nice and friendly staff, yummy food and amazing garden for sunny weather. Enjoyed it much and definitely recommend it to people who like to try new things:-)
Excellent food, nice atmosphere will definitely visit again. Food came in good time, would recommend the akee and saltfish and frites. Shame I was driving as had I not been I would have had the rum punch it's delicious
There were few empty tables but the waiter refused to swap put worst table (right next to the entrance where people come and goes every few seconds, cold and disruptive) with the one which is empty. Never go back there again.
The only disappointment was that I was booked for a table outside which I didn't request or wanted. However the staff was brilliant and the food was delicious
Lovely experience! The food was really delicious and the service was great. The prices were very reasonable and it was good value for money. The only reason why I gave 5 was because the space was really cramped as the tables were too close together. Would definitely visit again though.
A lovely meal which was reasonably priced. The staff were very attentive and polite. Overall the atmosphere was really good. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
Great food, good service, nice atmosphere, reasonably priced. Good selection of delicious vegan food Music not too loud. All in all a great local. I would recommend Negrils highly.
lovely relaxed atmosphere, v accommodating re being late for booking. Went with a born and bred Jamaican who loved the food. defo going to visit again.
Fantastic food and a lovely atmosphere. Definitely quieter on a monday, so had a lovely catch up with my housemates. As a vegan I really appreciate the variety of options on the menu.
Loved every bite and wish we could have eaten more (jerk chicken was incredible and our children loved the bbq ribs)! Staff was welcoming and atmosphere was great. Downside is that the place is tiny and seating is very tight, so, reservations are a must if you want to sit inside. But, those who sat outside didn't seem to mind. Also, when we asked about WiFi, we were told that they weren't allowed to give it to customers. Those things aside, we would still return.
Fabulous food and great service the only tiny criticism is that the tables are so close together but it didn't ruin the atmosphere. Can't wait to go again
Nice and cosy, welcoming👍🏾Not forgetting the food, tasty and authentic! Kudos to the chef. Would recommend, enjoyed the evening there. Would go again, fab place😀
Have always had great meals & service at Negril. Staff are friendly, attentive & knowledgeable about the menu. Am looking forward to my next visit. Thanks Negril for giving my friend & me a good time.
Really nice ambiance, great food well worth a visit. We went for my partner birthday it was a Fantastic night! The welcome we received was brilliant... To service was excellent and food was amazing!! They sang Happy Birthday and gave a slice of carrot cake it was great !! Great night would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning soon. The only negative Its was not cheap.
I've been going to Negril for several years and it never disappoints Simple , No fuss environment that serves great food in proportions you'd expect from your own kitchen It's word travelling across London for without a doubt which we did!! Long may it reign!!
Great atmosphere, excellent food and service with a smile. Our corner table had a ledge on the wallat head height, which could have hurt someone, but the staff did not mind when we pulled the table out Suggestion - offer stronger coffee; mine was the weakest latte I've ever had.
Great customer service, the waiters and waitresses are attentive, polite and fun. This was our second time dining here and it wasn't as good as the first mainly because the oxtail was overpoweringly salty and my partner found both the ital & pumkin stew lacking favour. Everything else was good, the rice, the detox juice & the sweet potato fries. Would most definitely go back though as I'll accept it as a one off due to Valentine's Day and perhaps the pressure to cook more stew than usual meant not as much care went into it :)
Great service by great people, we had a lovely reception as soon as we walked in from a smiley and funny guy! The food was delicious sloshed down with an ice cold red stripe :)
