A good experience with some authentic Jamaican food. The view of the garden was calming and cool at this time of year. However the service was a bit slow.

good is improving, the jerk chicken still isn't rjer, dry and more of a roast chicken catering to the new Brixton hipsters but I love the salt fish fritters and plantains

I've long felt it a shame that, considering we're talking about London, there are so few decent restaurants offering West Indian cuisine. Then I stumbled upon Negril by accident, and I'm so glad I did. The restaurant itself is lovely, the staff are friendly and the food is divine. It is as good as all the family food I ate growing up. Can't wait to go back; I've finally found a home-from-home in London.

The food was really good, and so was the atmosphere. We had the sampler platter, which included some nice chicken. Service wasn't amazing - it wasn't possible to swap the fish in the platter for another meat dish, so we got an extra portion of fries instead. Took a long time to get the check, and then a service charge had already been added on (a personal allergy - I really like to decide for myself what kind of tip I give, and that's not because I'm a bad tipper). Considering the raving reviews, we were a bit underwhelmed.

Unfortunately the service we received after complaints was poor, the food was poor quality overall, the rum punch however was excellent, but the service made the entire experience a shambles so unfortunately won’t be going back.

The flavours here are great - the salt fish fritters and plantain wedges are just brilliant. The service and decor is wonderfully rustic with none of the pretentiousness one can regularly find in London.

Great food as always, good customer service. The only downfall is they need to get a bigger venue & maybe a bit more of a Jamaican feel in the decor

Fantastic! Great food! great service! I would recommend this place very highly. I’m usually not impressed by Caribbean restaurants but this place I have been to twice now and the service and food were both better this time than the last. Clearly good enough the first time for me to return! 10/10
