    We was told that the baked fish that my friend ordered would take 20/30 minuted to make. When we queried after 45 minutes how much longer, we was was told that it would taken another 20 minutes. At this time we had seen people come in after us and had eaten and left. When my food arrived which was jerk chicken and rice was cold. This means that it was sitting on the side in the kitchen for a reasonable amount of time. The food was given back to me after clearly being warmed up in the microwave. I have been here before and the service was slow then and still is. wont be in a rush to come back. Amazing cocktails though!

    I went out for my birthday and I was very unhappy with the service I had 8 people that ate meals and sides, 6 had cocktails and 2 had beer but we was give a bill of £536. When going through the bill as it did not seem right we noticed most the things was doubled or added on thankfully we noticed. When speaking with the manager it took them some time to sort it out and the bill went down to £247 what a big difference to think most my friends was ready to pay the £536, for food and drink we didn’t have. This is not the first time that has happened. Not impressed at all.

    Service very slow. In fact waited for over half an hour for our starters. Do not go there if you have a tolerance to certain food eg rice, as you cannot substitute the rice for something else, it will cost you extra. Had a young waiter who was friendly

    always a good time had at the Dutchie. Its one of my favorite places to go as the food ambiance and cocktails are always guaranteed 10/10/10/10. I have heard the reviews on poor wait times however i have not experience this myself. The food came out promptly and the waiter was excellent. I would say to anyone whos had delays before, go back, get coctails, at the bar take your time have patience and eat and order. Part of the Dutchies charm is food cooked to order so i for one do not want my curried shrimp or steam fish and bammy rushed lol. Go and enjoy. i cannot recommend it enough!!! Its all about the 'Real Jamaican experience after all' :-)

    Never been to Dutchie before, I thought the wait was too long for the food over 90 minutes. When the food did come the rice was dry and cold. Also the glass of wine came with a fly in it and my colleague did not want to complain as it would take too long to get served again. Wanted to have Dessert however as it takes too long to get served, had to go elsewhere for this. Shame as it seemed a nice place, just needs more staff and less flies.

    Ordered the jerk wings which took forever to arrive and when they finally arrived they were dry! As we were sharing and ate 3 of them i was not expecting a refund but just passed feedback that they were dry and overcooked the waitress didnt even apologise or even acknowledge the feedback. She then brought the bill and expected me to pay straight away without me checking it or calculating solit as there was few of us. Dont get why she was rushing us as restaurant not busy. Apart from that cocktails and curry goat were amazing. Based on negatives nit sure will go back

    Overall the experience was good. Most of the food tasted really good however two portions out of four of the rice and peas smelt and tasted burnt. The portion sizes were good and cocktails great.

    I visited with my friend and our two young babies. The staff were very accommodating to us and provided excellent customer service. Our meals were delicious and the portion sizes were great. I was recommended this restaurant by a few people and I will now recommend it too. This is definitely the spot for authentic Caribbean food, nice cocktails and a warm atmosphere.

    2nd visit to The Dutchie, it'll be my last. Time is precious and I would rather share it where service is more pleasant. The staff seem so unhappy, can we inject them with some fun and charisma or is this asking too much? The music is too loud and compromises intimacy over table conversation or should we dance in our seat whilst eating akee & akee as I fished for my saltfish. I'll continue to support independent businesses and pay for authenticity, not shortcuts and stretched cheesy sauce for the Mac n cheese.

    Great food and drink the Nanny cocktail and Bob Marley was to die for, the jerk platter with festivals , bammy and coleslaw was out of this world. We followed this with a jek burger, jerk chicken with rice and peas and a cuury goay with roti and mac and cheese. I would highly recommend it. Music could have been a bit louder but it was only the afternoon. Can't wait to see the vibes on a weekend as we were unable to book.
