Whoever pass by should try it!!!! Had oxtail bowl, oxtail was perfectly tendered even the bone were enjoyable. Fried plantain was new to me, three is totally not enough!!! And I seldom have rice but this time I finished all they tasted so different with gravy. But I do think I should ask for more salad instead of rice.. anyway definitely will come back!!

Undoubtedly Moi Moi Island is one of the best for Jamaican and West African Staple Food! A must try for your taste buds! 😋 😋 😋 And food is Halal!

Absolutely delicious food! Tried their Chicken Suya for a very first time and it was lush - a balanced spices with punch of hot chillies! It is not for those who likes less than mild hot chillies! 🌶 🌶 🌶! Portion size was good!

Agoyin Chicken Wings were hot, crunchy and yummy! Each wing was of good size!

Service was fast! It is more catered for takeaways than dining in. But they do have few tables with chairs inside and few tables outside!

Staff was welcoming, friendly and helpful! But staff needs to focus on the customer when serving instead of tapping the buttons and looking at the mobile phone - I briefly puzzled and thought whether he was taking order on the phone 🤔 😡! But he won me over by his helpfulness towards the end of my visit. Other than that, it was a very pleasant experience!

Customer service was very, very poor (01/08/2022). There was no one behind the till when we arrived, and when we asked to order the 'Lunchtime Deal' once someone did turn up, we were told no, because it was too late (past 3pm). The problem is, there was no one there earlier so couldn't have ordered on time even if we wanted to.

The way the young man served us was overly casual and disinterested and he wasn't interested to know why we ordered too late for the deal.

Overall, I think there is an issue with handling orders there as the till is frequently unmanned from my observation.

Superb. The chickpea bowl was a great veggie option.
Maybe they could do some fried tofu for us veggies though?
Great meal with a good portion!

I had the Suya Bowl with Jollof. Some of the best West African food I've had in London. Somehow I wasn't expecting that from an informal cafe. They weren't trying to be soft on the spice either - really full on pepper, which is exactly what I wanted! Great quality food. Friendly staff too.

The food is absolutely fine, spiciness is proper. It took a little longer than expected to prepare however, it was definitely worth every minute of wait. We also met the main founder of the restaurant and he was a great guy and very welcoming...
