• Vegan • Angel

Booked 25 times today

Jam Delish is an independent family-owned Caribbean vegan restaurant and cocktail bar in Angel, Islington. Founded in 2020 by siblings Jordan and Chyna, their idea was one that came purely from their desire to bring their grandparents authentic, traditional Caribbean recipes from their family home to the London food scene, with a fresh and modern take, inspired by their own upbringing in a vegan household. Fusing their love for plant-based food with their Caribbean roots, they identified a niche gap in the market for authentic, Modern Caribbean Vegan Cuisine. With five-star reviews across the board from both customers and food critics alike, the siblings have now opened their first ever flagship restaurant and cocktail bar in the heart of Angel, Islington.

I really enjoyed my evening at the Quality Chop House. The service and food was outstanding. The challenge is you only have the table for two hours and with chops and steak taking an up to an hour to prepare the meal can feel a little time pressured. I think the restaurant would benefit from a bar to wait at and dwell at afterwards

We were a party of 15, the service was prompt and the food was wonderful. Staff accommodated our requests and we had a great night, would definitely recommend. I was told the curry goat was delicious and I wasn't disappointed as it was absolutely delicious. I cannot wait to go back so I can try other dishes. Thanks for making my husband's birthday party a delightful evening. We ordered a cake and it was beautiful and delicious.
