About Tawa Roti

Caribbean Restaurant in London

Tawa Roti is tucked away in London, and while I don't have photos to share, the reviews paint a picture of a welcoming, unpretentious spot. It feels like the kind of place where you'd grab a quick, delicious lunch or enjoy a relaxed dinner with friends and family – the kind of place you'd want to return to again and again. The atmosphere seems friendly and informal, based on what I've read.

Their menu is clearly focused on Trinidadian food, featuring rotis (both lamb and vegetable versions are mentioned), doubles, and sides like macaroni pie and palourie. One review mentions a Christmas menu, which sounds like a fun seasonal addition. Based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback, I'd definitely recommend trying the Doubles as a starter—they're described as juicy and flavorful— and a lamb roti, which receives high praise. The pepper sauce is another must-try!

What makes Tawa Roti special is the combination of authentic, home-style cooking and excellent service. The rave reviews highlight the friendly staff and the food's similarity to dishes made by grandmothers, suggesting a genuine and comforting experience. This place seems perfect for a casual meal with loved ones – a great choice for anyone who enjoys Caribbean food or wants to try something new and delicious.

I took my aunt here yesterday to try the Doubles and a lamb Roti, and they were absolutely delicious! The food was full of flavor and the Pepper sauce took the Roti to a next level. Coupled with the excellent customer service, it made for such a memorable visit. We also indulged in a few items from the Christmas menu, which added a festive touch to our experience. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience. We’ll definitely be back for more!

First stop back home in London from Amsterdam was this place!!!! I usually have trini food home cooked so didn’t have a clue what to order from the menu… Sean served us and put together his recommended mix of food for us all to try, this place is not intimidating to newbies at all… very friendly!! We started with the Doubles for starters and they did not disappoint. Juicy not dry, so tasty!! Next we had the buss up roti with mix veg and a portion of mix meat. I highly recommend. Service and flavours on point. I’ll make sure every time i touch down back in the U.K. with a Caribbean craving I come here :)

We came up here all the way from Surrey. And it did not disappoint. The Roti, to the macaroni pie, and palourie and sorrel. Was top notch and just like Nani used to make! Will be bringing Daddy here to try it!

I am so so so happy I came here, all the way from West London 😍 This place makes everything fresh! I had two x doubles, a fresh coconut and a curry goat dhal puri. The coconut juice was so refreshing and I got it cut later to eat the jelly! The roti was so soft and the curry goat literally melted in the mouth and the doubles were so full of flavour! I have to say I tried doubles for the first time a few weeks ago but from a less authentic vendor and I am now obsessed with this place. Plus service is amazing and the staff are so friendly thank you so much for your service!

Delicious food at very reasonable prices!! I had the lamb roti which was perfectly cooked. The meat was tender and the sauce very tasty. The doubles are very filling and a great starter choice. The fresh coconut was amazing - ask to have it cut once you drink the juice so that you can eat the fleshy bits. I’m definitely coming back for more!!! 😋
