Rhythm Kitchen E17 in Waltham Forest

Wow, qué increíble restaurante que sirve deliciosos platos y que tiene algunos de los más profesionales del personal. Llegamos a las 5 pm y nos recibió una camarera encantadora llamada Lexi que fue más allá para acomodarnos. Una de nuestras fiestas era tee - total y estaba interesado en el golpe Guinness. El restaurante no tenía Guinness sin alcohol y Lexi fue a la tienda local para comprar un poco. Luego hizo un ponche fresco y con los ingredientes sobrantes embotelló el resto. El ponche era sabroso. Los demás del grupo comimos ponche de ron que fue de los más fuertes que hemos tenido, de nuevo gracias a Lexi que nos dio unos con una 'patada extra', siendo del caribe se agradeció. Teníamos un plato para compartir, que era una gran combinación de gambas, alitas y pescadores todos llenos de sabor. Cada uno de los platos principales que pedimos estaba bien condimentado, por ejemplo, cola de buey, salmón y cabra al curry, y nos recordó al caribe. Tenga cuidado con la deliciosa salsa picante, ya que estaba muy picante y no para los débiles, de corazón. El lugar estaba limpio, incluyendo las instalaciones sanitarias. La música era lo suficientemente baja como para asegurar que la gente pudiera hablar y escucharse. El restaurante debe haber sido una joya local escondida a las 7. 30 pm, había gente esperando para sentarse ya que el lugar estaba completamente lleno. Mi consejo sería hacer una reserva. La comida era excelente. Sin embargo, Lexi hizo nuestra visita extra especial, por lo que merece ser reconocida por su servicio.

Asistí a un cumpleaños con otras 15 personas en junio de 2024. El servicio era un poco lento, pero la comida era muy buena. Avance rápido a la entrega de alimentos Marzo 2025 . Sorprendido y bastante enojado por pagar £ 15. 50 por el privilegio de recibir dos tarrinas de pollo patán quemado. Cada pieza se completó en negro por un lado. Podéis ver una pieza en la foto en la que deseché la piel 'caramelizada'. La salsa para la primera tina tenía un extraño sabor a vinagre que era bastante desagradable, la segunda tenía muy poco sabor en absoluto. Todas menos una pieza eran editables, ambas tinas fueron tiradas. No puedo recomendar este proveedor. A menos que tenga la intención de comer, recoja su pedido para que pueda ver lo que está pagando.

Visitamos Rhythm Kitchen anoche para la cena de cumpleaños de un amigo, después de haber estado en su puesto en el Festival Taste of London el año pasado y nos encantó. El restaurante, la comida, las bebidas y el personal no defraudaron! Tuvimos un entrante y principal cada uno, con 2 lados, además probamos algunos de sus cócteles de ron, todo estaba delicioso, especialmente las patatas fritas al curry cargadas de cabra y buñuelos de pescado salado. Los cócteles eran absolutamente increíbles, ¡sin duda no tienes medias medidas de nada aquí! Nos encantaron los cachorros de ron, increíble! Cada miembro del personal era muy amable, divertido y extremadamente servicial, pero un saludo tiene que ir a Lexi, que acaba de hacer la noche. ¡Volveremos!

Tuvimos una comida encantadora esta noche en la cocina Rhythm la comida era muy agradable y los cócteles eran muy moreish. Con un agradecimiento especial a Lexi que nos atendió, tiene uno de los mejores servicios al cliente que hemos experimentado, yendo más allá de nuestra mesa. Muchas gracias Lexi y equipo!

Have been hearing a lot of recommendation for this afternoon tea and was very excited. Very warm welcome and lovely laid out tables. Had to wait a bit for the food but that’s ok as I prefer that to it being say on the side for a while. The savoury treats were very tasty but felt all a bit oily. The scones, cakes and dessert cups were nice but all very sweet. The rum punch was delicious and the extra taster of coconut infused rum was delicious. We had a nice afternoon but don’t feel that it lives up to my expectations following online reviews.

The food was very poor, I had it as a take away but threw it away! The macaroni & cheese was £7, such a tiny portion and dry. Over baked till burnt and never tasted fresh. The curry mutton roti was full of salt. The meat was tough, chewy and over seasoned. I could not eat it as it was just too salty. I would not recommend

I'm leaving this review to get attention of whoever is in charge. We loved this restaurant and would be ordering food from here on regular bases and recommending it to others as one of the best takeaways in E17. It is pricey but locally it would be the best Caribbean takeaway we could get. However past couple of times we have ordered food its been terrible and it looks like cheffs has changed because its definitely not same person cooking who used to do before when we ordered food and absolutely loved it. Lately food been cooked so badly that we don't even think whoever cooks it knows anything about Caribbean food and our whole family have decided not to order from here again because we been literally throwing the food away how badly its been cooked. And I really hate the fact but I hope someone notices my review and takes some notice because its really a shame because this used to be much loved takeaway by our family.

I ordered a takeaway which came up to £44 for my daughter, mother and I which consisted of a portion of pepper prawns, 1 jerk chicken & 1 oxtail with 2 sides of rice an peas 1 jerk chips and a steamed veg with 2 Wray & neph cocktails. As can highly recommend the cocktails they were banging😍🥳🤩, the audacity of the quality of food they was willing to serve was a NO 😢😢 the jerk chicken was served burnt literally to the point where you could only taste the burnt cinder flavour through the sauce🤢, the oxtail was weak in seasoning an flavour which 💯% didn’t reflect the price of £15 😤😩🥺 the rice an pease were a 2/10 an the pepper prawns could get a pass but weren’t so fantastic 6/10 😒. All in all If you can’t cook don’t open a restaurant 🤨😝😔 especially if you wanna charge high for low quality Caribean food. How long do they expect the business to survive.

This restaurant is amazing the food portion was good and very flavoursome. The staff are very welcoming and accommodating. I was visiting from nottingham and we went two nights running the food was that nice

If you want an afternoon tea with a difference this is the place to go. It’s small with no more than 10 tables, which were all occupied. You pay when booking so there’s no unexpected extras. The staff were friendly and helpful (especially Lexi who looked after us). The only reason I haven’t given 5* is because it’s very loud due to the small space, loud music and even louder guests (us included). As a note, there’s plenty to choose from the main menu if you’re not there just for the tea.

Had a lovely afternoon tea for my sister's birthday. Very well presented and we had to take food home and it was too much to eat there and then. My sister got a complimentary rum for her birthday and was sang to which was a lovely bonus. Forget the usual sandwiches and enjoy chicken wings, salt-fish fritters and plantain balls. Next was butter milk scones then rum cakes and strawberry cream cakes. Offered tea of choice PLUS a complimentary rum shot and a rum punch. All in all, very tasty and worth every penny. Might book one for my birthday.

I originally had a reservation for 7pm but I called and changed it to 8pm. When I arrived I was refused to be seated as staff hadn’t changed the time on the system. I travelled 2 hrs to come here and there was no attempt to even find a solution although it wasn’t my fault. I will never come back here! Terrible customer service and completely out of order!

Oh my Gosh. I've heard people talk about this place for so long and now that I've been .... what a huge disappointment We ordered jerk chicken wings, patty, salt fish fritters. The only thing that tasted great was the patty that they clearly didn't make. Salt fish fritters we can't even describe the taste. Not much salt fish in them and a funny after taste. Jerk chicken wings were peppery but there was no real flavour. Caribbean cooking is all about seasoning and marinating. But the wings tasted like it just brush gense the seasoning and was quickly cooked. Wings were white and soft. We won't be returning

My mum, sister, and I enjoyed an incredible afternoon at Rythym Kitchen yesterday, Saturday the 27th of May. Fortunately, for us, I had seen a Caribbean afternoon tea advertised on social media and immediately purchased some tickets for the event via Eventbrite. From the very beginning, throughput, and at the end of service, the staff were truly amazing. They were so welcoming, approachable, attentive, professional, friendly, warm, and kind. They treated us like valued humans and like family. I don't think I have ever visited an establishment where I received such consistency, appreciation, and love from an entire staff team. The atmosphere in the restaurant was welcoming, warm, and fun. There was a great selection of socca. Between that and the rum punch, I felt energised and happy. The afternoon tea, itself, was incredible! I loved the idea of a Caribbean afternoon tea. This was one of my favourite ones, and certainly the most memorable. The sweet selection was perfect. The spiced scones, jams, and cakes were extraordinary. The jerk wings, saltfish fritters, and plantain kebabs were all seasoned to perfection and had a delicious hint of spice.

From the minute we entered the restaurant, we received a warm and professional greeting from the staff. Lexi, Pavi and Ann served us and showered all guests with love and laughter! The food was exquisite (delectable savoury treats and moorish cakes). I can honestly say this one of the tastiest afternoon teas I've ever had. The fact that it is Caribbean afternoon tea makes it stand out on its own unique merit too. I'll definitely visit again. It was worth the trip from Kilburn. The entire team is truly wonderful and shows kindness and cohesion. I could only dream of working with such a beautiful collective.

First time visited and had an excellent evening. Great food, great range of cocktails which we gave a good sampling too! Fantastic value!

It was lovely, unpretentious environment and the food was delicious. I had wings for starters and curry goat, rice & coleslaw. And OHMYDAYZ the dumplings to dip in the gravy or sauce was the best ever. The rum punch was just right too, felt I was in the Caribbean, disappointed that I’m not local as I would have enjoyed the Happy Hour! The food was soo good, I ended up ordering a takeaway including another Rum 🍹 Punch! 🎊🎉🤩

Ate here on Saturday night to celebrate my father in laws birthday and the vibe was great. Massive shoutout to the staff especially the waitress, bartender and Del. They went out of their way to provide and season a fish differently from the menu for my little boy and ensured that his meal came first. Really nice place, great cocktails and lovely vibe. Would definitely recommend this place. Food was really good.

Today my son took me for a lovely Caribbean afternoon tea at the Rhythm Kitchen in Walthamstow. A wonderful difference to the norm. Perfect authentic ambiance, warm attentive staff, more importantly flavoursome collection of food tempting your tastebuds. A good selection of Caribbean teas as well as English breakfast tea. It was pleasing to have an afternoon tea affair without the sandwiches, my favourite food was the tamarind prawns…. They really need to bottle that sauce and sell it… has to be their signature sauce. The mango and passion fruit cheese cake was so perfectly light and full of passion! But most of all the scones, they were not ordinary scones, hints of Caribbean spices were evident and when hit with the most perfect clotted cream with crust, and added to that guava jam…. It was sweet haven.… oh and what a generous glass of rum punch and rum! Nice to chat with Ann who made a point of speaking with customers, very modest and spoke passionately about Rhythm Kitchen and the teamwork behind the scenes. Thank you for this Mother’s Day special and the added gift all mothers were given to take away. I shall be returning to indulge in the normal main menu at some point in the near future.
