Moorish Grill in Croydon

This is the last time I order from here. The food may be good but every order I’ve ever made there are missing items that you then have to request a refund for. You should not show items available to order if you don’t have them!!!

Absolutely ridiculous that it says 15-20 minutes in uber eats. Orders take 1h+, food quality is complete crap, flies all over the place. Incapable of getting a order out before 12:00.

Moorish Grill saved us at African Fashion Week London!! They provided a last minute vegetarian feast behind the scenes to fabulousfingersuk . Chickpea curry, plaintain, rice n peas, greens, steamed pumpkin and side salad. Great price brilliant taste 😋

Just purchased oxtall / Jerk chicken / Rice & Peas. And must say quality and portions were worth the money. Great food fresh and good service. Highly recommended

Every time I’ve ordered there’s been food missing and on the odd occasion they have agreed to come back with it, it takes so long so meals are ruined, tonight yet again food missing called the shop and got told they had no drivers to bring missing food and told to request a refund via just eat. That was the very last time I order from this place.

Amazing food and friendly staff

Large portions and very friendly staff.. And the food is delicious

FOOD POISONING! Coming out both ends. Made my child unforgivably ill. I regrettably ordered the curry goat with rice and peas. Please avoid this dirty place like your life and health depends on it… because it does! NO STAR RATING! Its disgusting 🤮

Got a takeaway on 3/11/2018, a large jerk chicken boneless with rice and peas, up there with maybe the best jerk chicken I've had, full of flavours and such a big portion. The patties were good but have had better patties. But all in all banging food, oh yeah the dumpling was nice too.

Poor service, was ignored for a long time. Didn't have half the menu items. Didn't accept card payment.

All deliveries platform too much delay for them 1 star.

Bad customer service they robbed me for £5 and refused to refund me I asked for the boss and he hide in the back and told the staff to come out and lie to my face because they didn't want to refund me my £5 end up walking off and telling them to keep the money and the food they was happy to take back the food but not return the money lol it's actually soo sad and embarrassing black food shops will never value customers 😅 I still left with no food or money back and there just happy to stay open honestly if u have Morals stay away from Moorish they just want to rob customers with poor quality food

Great tasting food and generous portions, with nice people serving.

Ive really tried to be fair re this shop, but over a few visists or takeaways over the past 18 months, the food is poor in terms of taste, and the customer service inconsistent. Overall not really worth the visit given the plethora of Jcan food places locally. I've given this place plenty of chances, the only good meal I have ever had is the wings, idk what other customers' experiences are but as an actual born and raised Jcan, this place is not worth the money or time (unless of course your palette doesn't recognise good West Indian food). Visit at your own risk.

Food is nice price is nice the music is annoying looks abit messy but that’s how it is but one thing I can’t stand is the young girl that works there she is racist towards white people everytime I deal with her they never got anything I want and when someone else answer they have what I want the young girl work in morish girl has something towards white people so rude when dealing with me as a customer I’m not happy at all

1st time ordering from moorish grill as my usual was closed.I ordered for myself 1 piece of fried chicken pasta salad calslaw jerk chicken with rice and peas.I ordered my son curry goat and white rice.My son never ate his said it was bland and dry.I ate mine wasn't great however I was hungry so ate mine..withing 15 minutes of eating mine I had severe stomach cramps and a running belly...I would suggest that you check how your food is prepared also cross contamination and expiry dates...I will not be ordering from moorish grill again.lesson learned.I will stick to flavas first in south norwood...Dissapionted and ruined my planned night out..I also have a good friend who works for environmental health they will be making a spot check/visit..Disgusting!!!!!

The food its way to oily We get some fish and was so damn salty and oil everywhere and taste like burning. The chicken soap just had huge a piece of chicken bone and was basically raw and taste very plane. The people at restaurant seems nice but if u work with food honestly needs to be a clean environment the place look really dirty like greasy they need clean that place for be a proper restaurant.

This was worst food I’ve ever had in my life it’s wasn’t even cooked had no meat on curry goat

Delicious food and very dengerous portions.

Bought Stewed Chicken an Rice & Peas, it was the worst I've ever had. Chicken had no flavour and was mainly bones, and the rice & peas was very bland. I will not be ordering from here again.

Very very worst service for the drivers waiting for 20 min to get a order

Horrible dirty people very Rude and fooa is frozen and served

Not good service they are lazy!! Sry to say

First takeaway of the new year 4/1/24, I used to order from the Brixton branch quite a lot. So when I walked past this place & it was open, I was extremely happy I got the boneless curry goat, which was lovely, although not spicy enough for my palate & a beef patty. I got the Oxtail for my partner who loves all things Oxtail related & the only complaint was that it didn't have butter beans instead it had peas but the flavours were really good. The service I received was good, very friendly. I had a chat with the chef while I was waiting for my order, which didn't take long at all (I asked for it not to be heated) enough for 2 meals from the large portions, plenty of rice & meat. If I'm ever in the area again, I will be stopping by, I love all things boneless, which is very rare with Caribbean food. I just wish there was a location closer to where I live.

Food is tasty and full of flavours

Missing order and charged for it! Won’t use again

This is crazy!!! Normally I don’t care about the wait on my food especially if it’s soul food aswell but……….. Waited an hour to be told my order was cancelled and they made Deliveroo customs call me and had no attempt to call would not be delivering from here again and would not recommend

Food arrived promptly. Large curry goat with white rice tasted salty and not seasoned well. I have never tasted curry like that from any Caribbean restaurant. Oxtail was black with too much tarry bottled browning and again no seasoning used, although cut small and consistency soft with beans. Coleslaw didn't arrive, awaiting refund on Justeats 🙄 I'd prefer not seeing a Jamaican flag logo because I haven't tasted food from Jamaica ever cooked like that. Keep trying though! ☺️

Ordered on just eat. After 10mins driver was at the resutrant as per the App. After a whole 1 hour my ordered was cancelled when my kids were waiting for their food.

Literally the worst Caribbean food I've ever tasted. One of the worst restaurants ever. Nothing tastes fresh. Not even close. The shop is grim and looks dirty. Been twice to give another chance. Was worse the second time. Not often I throw food away. Couldn't stomach it. Madness

Got a surprise bag for real- plain rice, a tiny piece of chicken and porridge which ended up in the bin outside the shop. It looked disgusting, felt sick just looking at it. Wonder where all the 5 star reviews came from.

Got to say a big thank you to Moorish grill staff! after Uber driver left my food sitting waiting to be collected for almost an hour I wanted to cancel but Uber said they would still charge me cos the order had been made! the lady on phone at Moorish was so apologetic (even though it wasnt restaurants fault) and she offered to re make order and send out fresh food!! It was worth the wait!! Lovely hot and fresh!! So thank you to the lady who answer the phone!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Apparently theres a new chef, Damian, So recently had curry goat rice and peas. Also fried chicken. This recent chefs cooking is an amazing improvement... 👌

Always good food, nice home cooking at great prices. If you want a nice meal go here as its fresh home style cooking.

Lovely authentic Lebanese cuisine .. our server Trushal was great in help. Must try

Fantastic food for me, because I'm always on the go..Staff are always helpful and friendly 😀

My first visit to this restaurant and it would be my last!! My initial thought was let me try it out and support the business as I was hungry and there isn’t a lot of Caribbean shops in the area. Asked for the menu and they gave me a leaflet with the menu. I chose the £7 meal deal that came with any meat, rice or peas, salad with coleslaw. I asked for curry chicken with the meal. The cashier charged me £8, when I reverted back to menu, she said that the menu is just for people to look at but the prices are not the same? So I asked, ‘why would you show me your menu if the prices are not the same?’, the cashier said, ‘we need to update it’. So I paid, only a £1 difference. When I got the food I had no coleslaw and no salad and didn’t realise until I left so I drove back and they made me pay an extra £1 for the coleslaw! I was mortified and asked for it for free and they was adamant I had to pay, so now a £7 meal is £9! Annoying but ok!! When I got home they didn’t give me curry chicken, it was curry goat!! Soooo disappointing. I already settle down and couldn’t be bothered to go back! The food was a 4/10 and wasn’t worth it! I wouldn’t recommend their food to anyone, the service is poor! They rob you in broad daylight and with the cost of living, Who has time to be spending that much money on tasteless food AND they get your order wrong! NEVER AGAIN!

Ordered from here almost a dozen times by now. Never had any issues with food or service, in fact they've been very friendly the 2 times I've had minor issues with my order. Food is generally very good, only minor complaint is that the bone in meats (oxtail + goat) I've tried were cut smaller than I would like and so you get lots of smaller bone pieces, making it a bit harder to get the meat off. Still always happy to order from here whenever I want some Caribbean food!

Ordered on the phone had to pay card, got half way home got a call and they hadn't put the big platter in the bag I asked for a refund on that item, they took my bank details that was well over a week ago I have rang them twice since and they promise a refund within 24 hours the refund has never come!! I wouldn't go back on principle as I understand accidents happen but to completely hold my money is an absolute joke I have waited for a week and a half to write this reveiw in hope they would resolve the issue!!! Will avoid in future!

Very poor. Hardly got anything in the box. Never going back. Better options in the area

It's not a sit in restaurant, food and staff are amazing

Feb 2023 late night meal, tasty. August 2022 - so I went back to Moorish Grill, got the food in the pics below, got over charged by £2.20 (paid cash) more than the prices advertised, when I queried, I was told that I've been charged the correct amount! July 2022 - I've had better experiences in the past at Moorish Grill Selhurst Rd. I said hello to the only staff in the shop, I was ignored, she was having a snack and she was speaking to someone on her mobile, I thought she must be on her break. Waited for someone to come and serve me. While I was looking around the shop and waiting, she stood up and came to take my order, still eating a rolled wafer. While packing my food, she asked if I wanted it heated I said no however she had already heated one of the meals and didn't say anything about it. I asked if the curry goat meal came with a side, her response "hell noooo" then placed the hot meal in between the chilled foods! Portions were good except for the large curry goat, rice and peas that looked like a regular or small portion was still hungry after eating this.

Been using this place over 10years regular customer I was overcharged and genuinly felt targeted due to my skin colour by female employer she overcharged me £1.50 / wen questioned aparently there was inflation overnight but the very next day it was back to original price wen questioned no fuks were given basically take it or leave attitude 🤦🏻‍♂️ hungry was a understatement / couldn't be bothered to argue as she was alone an drive down due to moving but wont be using again if this happens its embarrassment, geezer that works there is diamond! honest! friendly and food is amazing

Awful . You pay and you don't get your full order. You've lost my service

Food is usually tasty and great portions however i would not recommend ordering after around 7pm as they will either not update you on ur order via the chosen app or not include something in your order without letting you know

I bought their chicken and rice dish and to my surprise, the curry and rice or freezing cold. They didn’t even bother to warm it up for the customer and the test was just basic.

Sent me a completely different order rather than just give me a refund. Absolute joke. Don’t advertise it if you don’t have it.

This place gave me food poisoning I was in hospital for two days I’m not allergic to anything except for this place. I will never eat here again.

Went for takeaway, Service was nice and quick. Food (chicken soup and Goat curry) were delicious. It's a nice little shop where you can also have waffles.

just a no, ordered with high expectations as others said and got food poisoning. i got the jerk chicken pasta, sweet chilli wings etc. coleslaw smelled and tasted fermented

Always good food and usually friendly customer service from the staff

Maybe ten days ago I bought jerk chicken, rice and peas there in person. Portion size was good, as was the sauce flavour. But beware of jagged chopped bones. On Saturday I had food delivered, and I was less happy. The 'pork' (are you sure? the bones looked wrong) and chicken was at least 50% jagged bone. The snapper was limp and a bit flavourless (I've had crisp, spicy snapper many times in Brixton) and the soups were mainly lumps of carbs and little meat. I had to add black pepper and Tabasco to all of it, which I don't expect from this sort of cuisine. I'll try them once again because maybe I was unlucky the second time, but all the chopped bones are dangerous and spoil the enjoyment / value for money.

Poor service, poor attitude and poor quality of food. I have eaten from them 3x over 2020-2022 and they have not improved. The first time 2020 was a Just eat delivery and it took 1½hrs to get to me (barring in mind that I live 6mins drive away). And yes I checked and it was the restaurant delaying delivery. When I called (2x) to ask what the delay was, they were as rude as you could imagine. The food was subpar. Second time 2021 I went to the establishment and I got my food quickly as I pre-ordered. Food still subpar. Thrid time 2022 it was late and they were 1 of 2 options of places to buy from so I pre-ordered assuming it would be a quick pick up like before. I stood out the front for a good 4mins saying "HELLO. EXCUSE ME." as I could hear about 4 people round the back having a conversation. When 2 eventually came out it was as though I didn't exist. They carried on tidying/cooking without addressing me. The third person came out and I repeated "hi excuse me" and they just looked at me and walk off then 10sec later walk back to the counter. I explain what I need (politely) and without acknowledgement they walk off. I was waiting so patiently for another 5mins then I had to ask the obvious question and was met with the most attitude smh. I will always support black businesses but I can't. I just can't with this one.

Peppersteak was small ordered large! Chewy horrible meat and stuck together rice and peas! Awful and a waste of money went straight in the bin ! Ordered the same meal somewhere else! Never again

Food is really nice an you can ask the staff about all the meals they have,an they have such a large menu and loads of different drinks an snacks as well as lunch time meal deals an I could go on...

I ordered my food today and I can't say it was a good experience I spend over 50 pounds and not all my order came the drinks are 5 pou ds each I order 4 only got 1 out the 4 and they didn't have veg rice and gave me rice and peas which I don't eat but could of given me plai. White rice which would make more since plus food was all that hot and the rest of food was ok was the greatest but yh sorry for the review but needs to be said

Bottom barrel restaurant. I ordered and got my food an hour and a half late. When I called to track my order they told me the driver is driving not flying.. the tracker says it takes no longer than 30 mins so that's a lie. When the food came, it wasn't at all what I ordered and they had left things out. I asked for a refund and they told me the business doesn't work like that. AVOID this place is trash and is why black business doesn't prosper

Food is great value...and tastes amazing

Food was not good.Goat curry was bland

Food was not fresh needs 100% inproving and I may consider eating there again their loss!

Two beautiful ladies and the rasta man ah work out something lovely for my dinner. Wonderful customer service with laughs and smiles.

Just witnessed their van driver nearly kill someone on a moped with a completely illegal and reckless driving. Should not be on the road.

Waited as no one was around when I arrived. I mentioned that there was someone ahead of me and left. The response of the individual “so it go”. Whilst your food may taste ok the service is appalling!

Food eas moorish 😀😀😀 No explanation, introductions or lamenting. Name says it all 😉

Fantastic, authentic food, friendly staff, reasonable priced with great variety. The Best in town!!!!!

Disappointing food and the delivery time was nearly an hour! The taste of the food was quite bland (curry mutton and chickpea curry) and the cuts of meat was stringy with a lot of bones. I was really disappointed in the lack of favour in the food and the portion size of the veggie curry.

My first order was Red Peas Soup which I felt was a bit too salty The boneless Chicken Roti seemed like fried chicken was used instead of stewed I wish I had read the reviews as I would never have placed an order

Order arrived very late. No warning given on lateness. When food did finally arrive it was not my full order

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE UNLESS YOU LIKE PAIN. All the chicken I ordered was under cooked. How do you undercook fried chicken? Did you even try?

Food is great, service is slow.

scammed me out of my money. waited 3 hours for my food to be delivered just for the delivery company to tell me they are claiming they delivered the food. no refund no food after 3 hours. GBG God is watching.

I tried the boneless curry goat with rice and peas, Macaroni Cheese and a festival. The portion sizes are great, with the large curry goat meal and Macaroni Cheese you could split for two people. The delivery time was pretty quick, maybe 20 minutes. With the Curry Goat, the meat quality was good and the curry was okay but not as flavoursome as I hoped. The Macaroni Cheese was okay, but just like the curry, the flavour was a bit bland and a bit inconsistent with taste, if you see on the picture the orange part had good taste and the rest it did not have much cheese flavour. The festival was nice and smelled good, it was a bit tougher compared to elsewhere but was still nice enough for me to finish it all. To conclude, Moorish Grill is decent/average/okay, it's not the best Carribean Takeaway I've tried but definitely not the worst. If you have no other options, I guess give this place a go and decide for yourself.

Yet again moorush grill have delivered outstanding fresh flavoured food curry goat was amazing flavour so tender never have any complaints with thus restraint Thank you moorish grill

Foods nice, good customer service.

Food was okay soup is very salty I've had 3 times now and has always been the same. Customer Service needs working on sometimes teenagers left to serve which they could be trained up more. Visited 21st may

It was good customer service and the food was also very good.

Brilliant catering service. Everyone enjoyed the food, received lots of positive feedback. No complaints!

Waited 1hr 30mins to receive the wrong order and when I called up the staff to get it resolved they were less than helpful and I’m not sure if I’ll get a refund. I should have read the reviews. Oh well

Can you believe that a shop can constantly take peoples delivery money for food that they KNOW THEY DONT HAVE. They do this constantly. The woman that works there is rude as hell. She should be ashamed of herself. They love to steal people's money as they take your money but never send your full order. What makes it worse is they do not care either. Yuck. I am never ordering food from this sham of a place again. Your better off going to Jerk Boss Centre, Dutchie or literally anywhere but here 🤦‍♂️😔

The black man was so rude, he doesn’t know how to talk with customers and he’s clothes was dirty too. I don’t know how you guys managing business with this dirty and rude staff . Definitely won’t order again . Shame on him

It was ok. Staff were friendly. Found the food expensive for what it was. I'll try other options like Sabadema, Norwood Junction before going back.

Very nice we not been for few months. But we enjoyed the food.

Food arrived damaged reordered still didn’t come on time even though I changed my lunch time not the first time this has happened with moorish. It seems they can’t cope with lunchtime orders. Will not be ordering from there again.

I've eatan here twice. First time, to try it, as just moved in area, I did not rate it. Thought I'd give it a second time and treat some family. We all had different dishes& all agreed it was horrible. It's the closest Caribbean to me, but I definitely wouldn't eat here again. Very disappointing. Staff are friendly, that's why I've given 2 stars, instead of 1!

I don’t understand if you didn’t have the items that I order why would you assume I wanted something else .You could have simply called and ask if I wanted something else as a replacement I’m never ordering from the restaurant again .

Still my favourite jerk chicken place after many years around this area really tasty and nice staff too.

First time having soup from here and it was delicious. Will definitely be back!

The owner of this place is so nasty. I used to work here and there is cockroaches and all types of bugs in the back. The fridge is barely cleaned and the cooks hygiene isn’t the best.

Sometimes grill is good but excellent is this one

Staff polite & pleasant. Food was a Let down sadly. I will not be going back.

Really good food with friendly staff 👍😁

Lovely food Great portion sizes best jerk chicken rice and peas in Croydon !!!! ♥️

This place is like your favourite drunk uncle; great but always late and perpetually missing something. Fantastic food, coleslaw superb, wings are perfectly spiced, patties a knock out!! I'll keep going but best to collect as they've only one driver. Despite other reviews I think the staff are reasonable.

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Food never turned up waited 2 hours...I used justeat.co.uk and they marked it off as "Order delivered" Do not order!!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Amazing food, always ordered boneless curry goat but it seems like the recipe has changed. Great customer service from Moorish Grill, explained the reason and everytime I placed an order for delivery, the food always arrived quickly!!!

Great food a taste of Jamaica cooking

Nice food and friendly STAFF for once

Staff could do with abit more training.

I ordered food today, the chicken was cold 30/07/21 Is just another wast of money again from them

Unprofessional staff and note that their 5 minutes is nearly half an hour.
