Can’t believe such high quality authentic Caribbean food is in a shopping mall. The oxtail was so juicy and soft and tasted amazing. The slaw was sweet and sharp. The rice could have had some more peas but that’s not a complaint on flavour. The service was friendly and fast and the server seemed compassionate about the food and his workplace. I was told about their other restaurant and will be visiting there asap and will 100% come back here when I’m next in the mall!

Was disappointed! Ordered Red snapper and literally got 1/4 of fish! No tail! No head! Just half the middle, That’s after waiting 40 minutes and cost £17.45 with 2 sides. Tasted ok…. My mate ate her whole meal before I had to go back to the counter and ask to ask, “If they had forgotten me!” I used to really love this place, dot think I’ll be going back.

I’m posting here because I’ve been calling and no one has answered. And I won’t be back in Stratford until next week. I bought the fried fish meal yesterday on my way home. I had half of it last night and it was all good. Today, while having the rest of it, I bit into a piece of metal which seems to be from a pot scourer. This does not give me confidence buying anything else from this restaurant. And it’s a shame because I often stop there on my way home and wait sometimes up to 30 minutes to receive the fish. And I’m always telling others about it.

My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at Rhythm Kitchen twice now, and my experiences have been a bit of a mixed bag, but overall, it's a solid spot if you're craving Caribbean flavors in Westfield Mall. Jerk Pork: I've tried the jerk pork on two occasions, and my impressions varied. The first time, it was phenomenal—definitely a 10/10. The meat was tender, juicy, and packed with that signature smoky, spicy jerk flavor that had me savoring every bite. However, on my second visit, the quality dropped a bit to a 7/10. The pork was still good but lacked the same level of seasoning and tenderness that made it exceptional the first time around. Oxtails: The oxtails were decent but could use a bit more attention to seasoning and tenderness. They weren't bad by any means, but they didn't quite hit that melt-in-your-mouth, fall-off-the-bone quality that I usually look for in this dish. I'd say they're worth a try if you're a fan of oxtails, but they could definitely be improved. Sides (Coleslaw & Rice and Peas): This is where Rhythm Kitchen needs the most improvement. The coleslaw and rice and peas were pretty underwhelming. The coleslaw lacked the creamy tanginess I was hoping for, and the rice and peas were a bit bland. These sides are supposed to complement the richness of the main dishes, but they fell flat in adding that extra burst of flavor. Overall: Rhythm Kitchen has the potential to be a go-to spot for Caribbean cuisine in Stratford, especially with their jerk pork when it’s on point. However, consistency seems to be an issue, and the sides could use some improvement. I’d still recommend giving it a try, particularly if you’re in the mood for some good jerk pork—just be prepared for some variability in quality.

As a Trini - very little to criticise about the curry goat, plantain and rice. I prefer the curry itself to be slightly 'sweeter' but the plantain balanced this plate beautifully and the heat was very tolerable. Before I ordered I was worried about the portion size. I stand corrected and I knew I had made the correct choice for lunch. Thank you for bringing the cuisine I love to the table. Continue!
