Delly's Caribbean Cuisine in Croydon

Can't give a review as I did not part-take Was a bit expensive for me

Food was delicious with a great portion size and the that atmosphere was lovely, but the service was a little bit of a letdown just because there wasn’t one dedicated person to a table. Apart from that, I will definitely go again!!

Delicious food in a great atmosphere.

We have been twice to your restaurant, and on our first visit, our orders were taken but we had to wait a long time because they lost our order. When our Oder finally arrived it was worth the wait. We gave recommended this restaurant to most of our friends and family. Me and my husband visited again last Saturday and the restaurant supervisors or managers were so rude and dismissive of us when we asked if we could change our table. We were seated next to the door. We were very cold because every time the door was opened the cold air blowing in on us and I have arthritis in my hip and spine and have a walking aid. The supervisors response was to refuse to speak to us and sent our server over to speak to us and she was very embarrassed because of their response to us, and could only apologise for them. There were a lot of free tables available that we could we could have been seated at. We love the food and the atmosphere there, but feel your staff is only interested in, group bookings or celebrities? Am I wrong in thinking people of a mature age or couples are not welcome in your restaurant?

good customer service great food would definitely recommend

Amazing food and cocktails. Ackee Spring Rolls were phenomenal and also good portion sizes! I would definitely recommend the jerk beef burger. Nice flavours and great vibes and music choices for the setting. A must visit.

Had a girlie Brunch. Lamb Chops were on point. The cocktails are to die for. We left proppafulland mash up

Party of 5 birthday celebration. EVERYTHING…..was perfect. Food, ambiance, service, hygiene, host and authenticity 10/10. Highly recommended when I’m not there as I want my space for when I am there. Well done to the owner and staff. Respect.

Went here with a few friends yesterday. This place was recommended to me. Firstly, when I walked in, I noticed the vibes. They had music playing in the background. It had a cosy feel to it. Loved the decor. The is a Jamican food restaurant, hence the name and the decor. For starters, we ordered the ackee and saltfish and the calaloo spring rolls. Which was tasty serves with a chilli dip. For mains, I orederd the lamb chops with yam mash and spinach with a mint jerk sauce in the side. My friends ordered the curry goat and tossed rice and peas, which consisted of gunga peas with veg. Both mains were so tasy the lamb chops were just how I liked it and you get plenty. By the time we all got halfway through our mains, we were full. We also ordered for sides. Plantain, Festivals, Mac N cheese, avocado, and mixed veg. It was so much food. The food was enjoyable and seasoned so well. They have great cocktails here. Even though I dont drink alcohol, my friends loved it. The only negative was that the service was a bit slow, which we mentioned to the manager who apologised. This was partly because they had 3 birthday celebrations there. This restaurant closes at 2am at least on a Saturday. Our table was booked for 8pm, and we left out there at 1am. The food stops serving about 11.30ish when the music style changes and you just continue to enjoy the rest of the night. I would definitely recommend it, but please book as it gets very busy.

I was at yah'so last night for my girlfriend's birthday and she had a wicked time. We enjoys the food we enjoyed the drinks Yah'so is a vibe and I always recommend Yahso to all my friends and family. I will be back again And if your event think about getting the strawberry daiquiri and Lobster 🦞 GET IT ! You won't regret it x

Seabass was delicious, coleslaw and avocado fresh and well presented. And the plantain was lush 💫💛

I visited Yah-So on a Friday evening on my sister's recommendation. I was impressed with the food choice and quality and the cocktails were tasty and came with a kick. There's a great ambiance with a lively and capitivating vibe. One couldn't help but jig up as the music selection was sweet. Suggested improvements: a starter dish arrived on a chipped plate which wasn't great presentationally; and the music a tad too loud so sometimes it could be difficult to converse. All in all an enjoyable evening -well done and thanks Yah-So. Keep up the great work. I'll be back soon!

I’d heard so much about Yahso , I decided to book a table to celebrate my friends birthday. We were not disappointed . The food , service and atmosphere was lovely . I’ll definitely be going again .

Love love love this place! I've only been twice once back in 2018 and again today and the service was exceptional. Food absolutely top notch and I am very hard to please!!! Took my niece out for a celebration lunch had the steamed fish I wish I took a take away back to Kent with me! Will try and pass by more often when I'm in the area. My niece who is Gen Z loved it also! Well done! Keep up the good work. Will defo spread the word like an evangelists lol!

Visited this restaurant last week and was a pleasant experience! The cocktails were lovely, food was great (highly recommend the jerk calamari) and the customer service was good. Nice atmosphere and vibes, I’ll definitely be visiting again.

Took my family there who are visiting from the Netherlands. We were given a warm welcome and our waitress (Precious) was attentive throughout our visit. Food was fresh and absolutely delicious and portions so generous that we had to take some home boxed up! Vegetable curry was particularly tasty, spring rolls too, and my relatives loved their chicken and ribs. Thank you, Yah-so.

I’ve been here several times before, good food, drinks and vibes would definitely recommend. Special shout out to Precious for her exceptional customer service

Food spicy and delicious service brilliant atmosphere amazing

I visited Yah-So yesterday and I highly recommend everyone to visit. There food was amazing specially I tried the Mac and cheese which was 10/10 along with the jerk chicken which was delicious.

Pros: the food was very authentic last night more than usual. Yam mash always delicious (but small). Cons: overpriced, the portion of rice n peas is small and not enough to compliment the meat (oxtail or curry goat). £20 for one portion of oxtail/small rice n peas! Consistency: hit and miss last night's curry goat was on point, but has watery sauce on previous orders! Overall: need to be more consistent for the high price. Have an option for proper rice n peas and provide decent portion sizes .

A great experience with friendly staff every time. Food is some of the best you’ll ever eat! Great Jamaican dishes and the taste and variety leave you wanting more. Wonderful drinks!

Very enjoyable....food was heavenlicious......this is a real food junction....staff was hospitalable, friendly, engaging......I mus seh...Ya suh niceeee....that name is really correlating with the service delivery......keep up the good work....coming again with my gang ......lovely lovely experience

I recently dined at yah-so Caribbean in Thornton heath and had an outstanding experience. The ambiance is vibrant and welcoming, with a perfect blend of modern decor and Caribbean flair. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The food was the real star of the evening. I started with the lamb cutlets, which were perfectly seasoned and had just the right amount of spice. My daughter had the curried goat, which was tender and flavorful, accompanied by white rice that was cooked to perfection. The drink menu also deserves a mention. The tropical cocktails were delicious and paired well with the meals. We particularly enjoyed the rum punch, which had a great balance of sweetness and kick. Overall, yah-so Caribbean offers an authentic taste of the Caribbean with exceptional service and a lively atmosphere. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy a fantastic meal in Thornton heath

Took my mum here for her birthday on Saturday she loved the food, the service and the Yahso birthday with the drums and singing. Absolutely loved it and made her feel special ❤️ Thankyou

Although the food tasted good, despite being over priced and the portions a little on the small side, the atmosphere and service can only be described as distinctly unwelcoming. My family and I are not in a hurry to return specifically because of the unfriendly attitude of the servers. If they cannot meet, greet, and attend to guests with a smile and pleasant demeanor then they should find a new profession.

Tne best Caribbean restaurant I've ever eaten at!

Rihanna provided brilliant service. Service with a smile and very attentive

Purchased 4 lunch meals for myself and Co workers, it was pepper steak and rice n peas with coleslaw. Good taste was very nice until a few hours later when we all came down with food poisoning, all very sick for 2 days and we suspect it to be the rice. Never again will we eat there.

I had a lovely birthday lunch with some family and the food was fantastic as usual with a good selection of mains, sides and cocktails to choose from, also a separate kids menu. I’ve been to Yahso a few times and it never disappoints. I was given some shots and a sung a lively happy birthday compilation by the staff, with accompanying drums! who were attentive and helpful throughout the afternoon, especially Raja (?)…there can be a bit of a longer waiting time for the food but what do you expect if you want the food cooked properly! 😊

Oxtail was nice and tender, but warm, could have been a bit hot, but overall the dinner was lovely. Thanks

Precious and Paige are the best staff there I love the fact they are very welcoming, a lovely vibe and sooo polite. Need a raise.

The kids treated hubby to @yahsogrill for Fathers Day and it was delicious as always 😋 we’ve been here various times for birthdays and celebrations and it never disappoints I had the King prawns with salsa and bbq ribs with rice & peas and macaroni cheese. Hubby had the Seabass, the kids had the Jerk chicken and oxtail. So delicious 😋 The drinks were so nice, we had the rum punch and pinacolada and the food portion size was so much that we couldn’t finish it all so had to take it home with us! Lastly the staff were lovely, welcoming, pleasant and very attentive especially a young lady called Precious😊 The other ladies were lovely aswell but unfortunately I didn’t get their names. We definitely recommend 💯

food and atmosphere was 10/10 also paige was a fantastic server no faults!

Paige was such a good waitress. Attended to our every need, very polite and patient. Had a great experience

Precious was really nice and attentive.

Absolutely delicious, I was surprised how good the food was as expected it to be bland for tourists. I would definitely recommend and return. Stars removed for Service because the food took an hour to arrive. You are given two hours so most of it is spent waiting. It's worth the wait but don't come if you don't have much time.

Went here for the 3rd time with my family (Mum's birthday) and the service has improved immensely. The previous times I visited we waited over 45 minutes for the food. This time, it was a very good service with friendly staff, and a good atmosphere. Would go again.

Paige was our host and she was amazing. Completed all our menu with satisfaction. Helpful and polite

Very disappointed with my experience. We were a birthday party of 12 celebrating my granddaughters 9th birthday. We waited over an hour for our food. When the food finally arrived, there were items missing. One of the guest had to go up to request their missing food item, my tables order had the white rice missing from the main meal. The order of oxtail came with the wrong accompaniment, and then on top of that the white rice also was brought to the table five or so minutes after, by which time the individual had finished the meat dish. Prior to that, I'd ordered another glass of sprite, which again took 10 or so minutes to arrive to our table. The server did apologised as she'd forgotten to get the drink, but I do personally feel that had one server been allocated to serving 1 or 2 tables we may not have had to wait sooooo long, and all meals would of arrived at each table within a decent time scale. They seemed to be serving everyone and therefore lacked the professional touch. The bill came with the white rice added which we didn't want as it was too late. We did ask for the service charge to be taken off the bill. Also the music could just about be heard in the area where we sat but seemed to be more at the front of the restaurant. Overall, a disappointing experience.

Talifa was amazing & the food was great 10/10

I had a good really experience today at YahSo. Paige was very friendly and professional and me us feel at ease.

We were served by Precious and she was lovely and very attentive. The food was great and so were the cocktails. We enjoyed so much we got a takeaway too! Definitely will be back.

Our host was Precious and she was so polite and accommodating. Checking to make sure all was well with our experience and food. The food was 10/10. The best prestige Caribbean dining taste and experience. Definitely making this a regular visit. All the staff were so polite and ready to help. Even gave us a complimentary drink as soon as we sat down. Lovely

Very nice and cosy spot with good food and the staff are always amazing. Big thanks to Precious, Kimono and Ellie

Great service, waiter was Paige she was brilliant staff was lovely and food was perfect

Page was a lovely worker!! Very kind and sweet and friendly it was lovely having her as one of the people who was helping out with our food !!

Precious was absolutely amazing, so attentive! and very friendly fantastic service! the vibe is so good and the food is delicious!! definitely coming back! the birthday drums are amazing when it’s your bday make sure you tell them! overall great experience

Went there for my sister’s birthday we paid pre booking for 3 course dinner. Considering the numbers they managed it well, staff were friendly and attentive. Food quality was great, good presentation and taste. On the whole for a Carribean restaurant it was a pleasant experience and I would return to support this black owned business.

We visited Yahso to celebrate our mums birthday, and I have to say my expectations were far exceeded!! The food was absolutely fantastic, and Page our Waitress was amazing, I can’t recall the last time I’ve received such great customer service - thank you Page We had such an great evening, i cannot wait to come back. And let me add, as a vegetarian it was so pleasing to have a filling, and tasty 2 courses. I highly recommend Yahso…. Thanks to all for such a great night !!!!

Rihanna was lovely and very lovely young lady. Rihanna was helpful and very pleasant and professional as a family we were very impressed 👍

Rhianna very nice food served by very nice waitresses especially Rhianna

Paige was AMAZING!!! Made the trip worth it

Nekaybaw and Paige were lovely 😍

We had a lovely experience with Nekaybaw at the bar and Paige serving us. Amazing customer service and great vibes after a long day for us at work.

The service was excellent paige was great the rum punch was great and the food we had lobster dish with prawns and calamari was spot on

We came here and it was busy. We were told to wait at the bar by a young lady. We waited 45MINS, I asked the lady how much longer and she was suddenly confused and didn’t know what we was talking about. We ended up just leaving in anger. Terrible service.

if you find yourself in this part of southeast London then Yah-So is most definitely worth your time. Although its clientele seems to consist mainly of locals from in and around Croydon, this Jamaican restaurant is decorated tastefully.

Went to London to meet my brother in-law who was travelling from Jamaica, nothing was planned, decided to go here for a drink and a catch up. Subsequently, he had left his wallet, and I only had a small amount of cash. Low and behold we only noticed when the bill came, i dno what our server was called, but she managed that situation flawlessly so we didnt have to feel embarassed! Never found myself in a situation like this before, but trust me.. it wont happen again. lol To the young lady who helped us out of sticky situation, Thank you! Food was like eating in Jamaica! Lovely vibz. Would defo recommend🫶🏾🫶🏾❤️🇯🇲🇯🇲

If I could give 1 star I would!!! Went to this place a few years ago and ended up walking out as after 40 minutes no one took our order and not so much of a drink! Was told to give it another go so went there today, not so much as a smile from the staff. Had us waiting at the front and after some time the woman FINALLY came and seated us with the menu. My fiancé and I were ready to order and we waited...and waited....and waited.....! She walked past and she looked me in the eye and looked away! She served someone else, walked passed so I called her and she has the AUDACITY to stick her finger up and said 1 minute. Then proceeded to strut up and down the restaurant, went behind the bar so I told my fiancé let's go. As soon as we got up and walked off this is when she wants to walk up to us with a feeble "sorry". Ridiculous service, miserable staff, walking around as if customers don't pay their wages. Couldn't tell you what the food or drinks taste like as they can't be bothered to serve you!! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME!!!! RUDE! RUDE! RUDE!

To be honest with everyone, I am very disappointed with the service provided by Yahso. I called this restaurant yesterday to make reservations as I could see online that you can only get a table reserved from after 17.30 which is an hour and a half after opening, so I thought to call. Initially I was rejected for making a booking of 3adults and 2 children as we was told we would inconvenience another booking but soon after I received a call back from an employee saying she could make an exception. We agreed I will be half hour but due to the diversions in the surrounding area and also coming from a far I realise quite quickly we might not be able to make that half hour booking, so I called the restaurant… not once …10 times, just to double check it was still okay to attended. When we arrived, half hour past the time we agreed the lady who greeted us then told us she can no longer accommodate to our verbal agreement, as she is booked up, then followed by “why didn’t we call?”, at this point I was furious (but remained calm) because the lady had zero customers to serve in front of her and she had the phone sitting by her hand, I mentioned I called numerous times and she chose to let me know how busy she was. So to conclude, I’ve driven from north London to be rejected with zero empathy. I have been Yahso once before, the food was lovely and I was looking to spend my dollars again however not on customer service like that. It’s so unfortunate that such a lovely restaurant like this lacks points due to hiring Unenthusiastic, rude and lazy staff, I’m not sure if these people are related to the owners but please do yourself a favour and hire staff willing to give your business a good name. Reading the rest of the reviews clearly shows I am not the only customer who’s attended but didn’t enjoy themselves.

I rang Yahso to see if I could book a table for this evening, only to be told that at the moment they only have availability for 8.30pm. To which I replied no problem, then asked if there were any chance of a cancellation or earlier booking. Some rude, facety, stink old woman screams at me “don’t you think I would’ve told you if we had availability!! Luckily for this person I was not in the restaurant! How dare you speak to a potential customer like this! I’m apoplectic with rage! Whoever I spoke to, is an absolute disgrace! This woman should be sacked immediately ! I will NEVER eat from this establishment again! This attitude is why black businesses don’t thrive!

We decided to have our friend birthday at Yah-so restaurant as he's from Jamaica and has a few Caribbean friends. We wanted it special for him the restaurant team made it very especial and spectacular 😍. Well done to Yah-so team , we will come back definitely Nathalie

Lovely, generously portioned food and really lovely laid back atmosphere. Nice staff too.

Precious was amazing! Her customer service exceeded expectations. Thank you so much for your amazing hospitality

Everything was great! Our waitress Precious was so sweet. We will definitely be back.

Came here for Sunday dinner with the family. Absolutely brilliant service and food. A great vibe in Yahso. Credit to the team - Precious, Talitha, Paige, Kerry, Zion and Nekayba! Last time here was a year ago when we had a long wait. The service has gone through the roof since. The best Jamaican food in the area, probably South London!!

It was a friendly service but service for drinks to be served was too slow. Probably could do with more staff perhaps? Or someone there to coordinate between staff and guests so it wouldn't look so vague? The host wasn't too happy with the time food was served and needed to organise for the guests who were present first, not prioritised for the guests who hadn't arrived yet. Overall and all in all it was an excellent night out. It was good fun to be had by everyone and happy people made it a fun night. I loved the DJ style of play which is probably usual on point for restaurant standards playing a good mixture of reggae and afrobeats as well as Western soul rhythms old and new tunes. The night tun up!!! Bongo drums was a pleasant birthday surprise!!! 👍🏾🙌🏾Yes I will go back and dine there again for a reservation. An excellent Caribbean vibes and atmosphere achieved. I loved it!!! 😁

The waitress that looked after for us her name Rihanna was very Pleasant came over to see if we were okay and if we needed anything, Mark Out of 10 for her.

Came in and was ignored by all staff. Was stood by the door for a good 2/3 minutes before I stopped a member of staff to speak to them. Absolutely shocking customer service

I had an amazing 20th birthday at this restaurant the service was absolutely amazing. I want to big up Talitha, she was amazing right from the moment we walked in she gave us such an amazing welcome right till the end. It was an amazing time and Talitha showed great customer service throughout the time I was there.

Our waiter Rihanna, was attentive to us, she went out of her way to ensure we were happy and our needs were met (dairy allergy). The food was ok, I would have preferred a little more flavour and spice. Cocktails also needed a little work in terms of presentation and alcohol level. Having said that, the atmosphere was nice and the rest of the staff seemed lovely.

We had a wonderful time and the food and service was exceptional. Precious and Rihanna was very attentive, patient and professional. Thanks for a great service!

expensive takeaway considering portion sizes, tasty food.

Precious and Zion were very welcoming and pleasant - thank you both for making our experience worthwhile

Always great vibes and food at Yah-so, our waitress Precious was wonderful right from the beginning when we came in, great experience for me and the whole family!

I had a wonderful experience. The food and atmosphere were amazing. We had a wonderful time thanks to our wonderful waitress Kerry.

We had a lovely waitress called precious. She was soo kind and attentive with everything we needed. Food was great and great cocktails. Would recommend

We initially had a very poor costumer service experience with one of the members of staff, however, Precious was extremely hospitable. She looked after us well and made up for the experience with her friendly smile and positive attitude. Will definitely be back for her. Food was 10/10 also.

Takings was great, smiling, polite and always checking to make sure we were alright. The food is always delicious and the drinks also. Will defo be back

I just want to send a massive amount of love to Taliha for everything you have done to make this an amazing visit you are truly a blessing...x

Talitha was amazing tonight, it was my Son's birthday, I forgot the candles for his cake but she took care of it, putting me at ease. All staff were friendly and attentive. The atmosphere and vibes were amazing as always. The team also done a lovely happy birthday song for us, overall we all had the best time. The food was 10/10 and will always recommend 👌🏾 you will not be dissapointed...also the sexy sorrel 10/10!
