First time eating ogbono and I can say I am convert. As a Ghanaian eating Nigerian food she got me swayed. Food was delicious even the jollof. ( But Ghana jollof is still king) but I enjoyed the food thoroughly.

Love this restaurant! Finally we have decent Soul food in Ashford??Staff are warm and relaxed with a home-like chilled atmosphere.??‍?Being a person of culture I am quite critical of quality and flavour in Carribean dishes. The Curry Goat and Oxtail w/ rice and peas are my go to and never disappoint. The jerk chicken has been westernised which is unfortunate because it is supposed to jerk those tastebuds into action which it does not. For those who do not like spice or pepper do not order jerk just as you would avoid a vindaloo.

Jays Soul food is a blend of Caribbean and Nigerian Cuisine. The food was delicious and the portion’s generous. Reminded me of home cooking in an area you least expected to get such authentic meals.I went there with some friends and we each enjoyed our choices. I had Caribbean rice n peas, oxtail and goat curry. My friends had Eforiro and another had Ogbono.The service was excellent and the restaurant very neat and homely.Highly recommend

Never knew in a million times I would find a good African restaurant in Kent. Just decided to take an adventurous travel down here and I enjoyed it . The customer service was 11/10 and the food omggg it was great as well. I order the pounded yam and egusi soup and it was everything I expected, tried the efo riro as well and it didn’t disappoint. Had to get a takeout for more food. There is a bar as well if you wanna have fun all day. Definitely coming back for more. Thanks Aunty!

The worst Jamaican food I’ve ever tasted, not authentic at all. I should’ve known when I came in and saw that the patties weren’t in the front display warmer. There was a sign that said “first orders 20% off” via the app.. the app didn’t exist. Then we were told to use the link on the website, that website also didn’t work. Just honour what the sign says and do the discount? Especially as it was our first time. Moving onto the food. Microwave packed patties you’d find at Stratford underground station is all I could say. Soggy, distasteful. Than the jerk chicken? The sauce was very bbq and vinegar filled, quite sour, portion size was fine for what we paid but again no authentic flavours. The rice and peas was fine. Overall, did not have a great experience here 2/10 and the staff out at front just had zero knowledge

An absolute gem of a restaurant in Ashford offering Caribbean and Nigerian food. Portions are generous, food is authentic, tasty and very reasonably priced. Everything served with a smile. Would definitely visit again.

Was so excited for to be treated to a Carribbean cuisine from my girlfriend. Starter was ok but took over half an hour to come. By the time this came I was tired and over hungry. I decided to take our jerk chicken and goat home. We were so excited, but to our disappointment, there was more BONE ant salty gravy. RANK. AND then the SO CALLED JERK CHICKEN , was just tomato ketchup with a hint of cayenne. on 2 kilo of rice. even though they gave us 2 kilo of rice as well for our dish.
