Lovely food - Edit
The perfect blend of Caribbean and Asian quinine. Generous portion sizes and food tastes fresh. Very filling and great value for money. Shame I couldn’t eat all the menu in one go as so much to try

very unique - Edit
never had food quite like this. the place is small but tbh i felt very comfortable there. the waiters r kind and the service is fast.
Read morethe Samosas (6,80€) were incredible, but i think theres only veggies inside and no protein. as a main i had the Okomomiyaki (13,90€), absolutely out of this world. a soft flat "pancake" made of veggies and topped with these delicious sauces. a real banger.
i actually wanted their mashed potatoes and beans, but they said they didnt have it anymore. maybe making new menus wouldnt hurt😉

Excellent food at cost of a strange waiter - Edit
Really fast service, unique decor, the waiter was a strange guy (he looked so fed up bless his heart)…. the food though was so tasty, best vegan karaage I had outside Japan!!!! I would definitely go back 😄

Ummmm Not Great. - Edit
Food wasn't very good. Very pricey. First place I went to in Amsterdam and honestly wish I skipped it. Maybe I got the wrong thing 🤷

Too much choice! 🥲❤️ - Edit
It's such a varied and interesting menu that it really is hard to choose. By now I've been three times and it doesn't get easier.
Read moreThis time we shared a vegan plate (tempeh, chicken bites, salad, rice, stir fried vegetables) which was very nice and satisfying, but I slightly preferred the karaage bowl (jackfruit bites, salad, rice, bean sprouts).
On previous visits (many years ago) we've had dragon sushi roll, the Jamaican plate and various fast food-y things. It's always been good.

Great jamaican cuisine - Edit
Everything here is vegan, which seems to be rare in Amsterdam. We had the jamaican and the vital plate and they both tasted great, they were pricey though. We never had jamaican food before, we really liked the flavour profile. Location is nice as well, we were seating outside.
Read morePros: Food, Central location
Cons: Inside was too hot to eat comfortably, Pricey

Caribbean/Jamaican and Japanese - Edit
Fully vegan eatery serving a mix of Caribbean/Jamaican and Japanese food. Really enjoyed the Ire Ackee & Saltfish made with banana blossom (though I personally found it slightly greasy)! The Okonomiyaki seemed to be popular among other customers too. Located between Amsterdam Central Station and Dam Square (Royal Palace).

Decent food, good options - Edit
I can't speak for a lot of the dishes, but the okonomiyaki was quite good. A little sloppy but flavorful and a decent size. Service is friendly too. I like that there are a mix of Asian and Jamaican options on the menu.

Very tender imitation meat, but pricey - Edit
I got the Jamaican plate, which was pretty good - very very tender "chicken", which was the highlight. There was a good combination of things included in the plate, but the curry was actually a little blander than I expected. A little more spice would have been nice. And it's definitely pricey - 19 euros for my dish. Still, unique food.

Surprising food - Edit
I didn't expect this surprising food. The "pancakes" made out of veggies and flavored with sauce is delicious. The rest of the food is not bad either.

Pas propre et très cher - Edit
Malheureusement, l’endroit est très sale: les tables collantes, la poussière partout, les coussins de chaises noires de crasses et je n’ai même pas osé voir les toilettes. Certains plats avait l’air généreux mais en plat j’ai opté pour les sushis et j’ai obtenu un seul rouleau fin de sushi avec de l’avocat pour 16€!! Le burger sans accompagnements est à 13€. Honnêtement, c’est vraiment super cher pour ce que c’était. Le burger était bon mais les sushis vraiment sans intérêt ! C’est décevant car à nouveau ça donne l’image que manger vegan c’est hors de prix alors que non. Bref, extrêmement déçue et affamée à la sortie !

Nice - Edit
Tasty, but if I’m being honest, the Asian style food wasn’t anything special. Maybe we should’ve went for the Caribbean food instead. Sadly they were out of Jamaican patties when we visited. We still enjoyed our meals nonetheless and the staff were very nice.

Friendly vegan restaurant - Edit
Great spot to eat early evening only 5 minutes from central train station but in a quiet street. Great range of menu options. Deep fried jackfruit with rice and salad was delicious, bean burger less good.

Goutu et bien cuisiné - Edit
Un plaisir d'avoir tenté l'aventure jamaïcaine. Le fruit du jacquier pané frit avec le vromage et son accompagnement bien cuisiné était très bon et copieux.

Delicious! - Edit
I ordered a tempeh bowl and it was so good! The staff were really friendly as well. Only downside was the price, I wanted to try more! And hoped to get a little more food in the bowl for the price. Maybe that’s just Amsterdam being expensive though.

Nice Jamaican and Asian Food - Edit
I had a really tasty lunch with a friend at the restaurant. The interior is more simple and not that cozy but it has very nice wall paintings. The service was okay but the food was very tasty and I would highly recommend the crispy Tempeh Bowl.

Frisches, gesundes Essen - Edit
Wir haben hier 2 sehr leckere bowls serviert bekommen. Auf jeden Fall frisch und sehr gut gewürzt. Der Preis war echt hoch aber ich denke für holländische Verhältnisse angemessen. Man sitzt auf Barhockern, es ist dennoch sehr gemütlich. War gegen Ende unseres Besuches auch sehr voll. Es gibt keinen Alkohol, finde ich persönlich auch gut und authentisch für das Konzept. Große Empfehlung!😄
