We visited for a friends birthday. The restaurant is beautifully presented and clean with very polite staff. I loved the live music gave it a special touch. I had a reggae rum punch which was on point and jerk chicken for mains, the rice I was served wasn’t nice but it was quickly sorted and I was happy with overall service. Thank you for a wonderful evening.
Been meaning to go in this restaurant for a long time; keep driving past it on and off the island. Glad I persisted with finding parking and entered today, I had the Ackee & saltfish and my little 5 year old daughter had stew chicken and mac n cheese. Presentation was beautiful and the food itself was so tasty, generous pieces of Ackee and the stew chicken was in filo pastry and when the gravy melted through the bottom of the pastry it was heaven.
Will definitely try the takeaway menu too and would love to visit the restaurant again. Already two of my friends ordered takeaway from there tonight and they said the food was fantastic.
I really enjoyed my evening at Ayannas, there was even live music which was a lovely surprise for us. Not only was the entertainment great (not too overpowering) but the food and staff were also excellent. Really delicious desserts, you have to try the chocolate brownie!
I have never tried fine-dining Jamaican food, and this certainly exceeded my expectations. Fantastic, attentive and friendly service and really high quality dishes. I had the curry dish and it was fantastic with really vibrant flavours. I really enjoyed the dining experience at Ayanna's and I will be back very soon!
This is a Caribbean restaurant that provides a romantic ambience, it was quiet the evening I went but the restaurant had come highly recommended so I was not worried. Listening to nice reggae tunes in the background; I proceeded to order a bottle of rose, the waiter served the fresh and fruity bottle in a glass allowing me to taste it , to see if it is satisfactory; and it was
I ordered the jerk chicken starter and it was very juicy, well marinated in the jerk spices and there was a good helping of it.
I ordered the oxtail with rice and peas, the oxtail was beautifully made, very tender and fell easily off the bone, the rice and peas was ok, my friend ordered prawns as a starter and fish for main and that was also a filling and enjoyable meal.
Both meals were beautifully presented and we received good service throughout.
Food was delicious; only wish there was more with regards to the number of Callaloo Spring Rolls, or that they were bigger, but besides that, the service was excellent and the decor and ambience was excellent. Cocktails had a good amount of alcohol; all and all a great experience.
So happy to have found this pretty restaurant after looking for high end authentic Caribbean food.
My husband is a tough audience and we were both won over. The flavours were excellent, presentation beautiful and portions plenty. My husband said it reminded him of his childhood!
The service was impeccable and the music was an added bonus. Word of warning… those cocktails are not for the faint hearted!
We will definitely be back, we travelled quite some distance and Ayannas did not disappoint. We will be back for the live music and to try the lobster. Thank you so much for making our night one to remember !
We had an excellent evening. We went to celebrate Jamaican Independence, however what had been advertised for the event did not materialize and unfortunately the restaurant did not in itself display anything to outwardly celebrate such an important occasion. However, that being said, I can say personally that the meal superceded any meal that I have ever had in a Caribbean restaurant, even without the pomp and ceremony.The presentation of every plate was superb. The staff, all of them were pleasant, engaging, just a real joy. Compliments to everyone that made the dining experience so memorable. Highly recommended
I loved how as soon as we walked in they greeted us and offered to take our jackets which they hang up I feel like that was a great gesture and great customer service. The staff was very friendly which I came to find out it was a family business which I loved as it's always nice to see people grow. The food was very well cooked and it was very well presented. We ordered curry goat and classic jerk chicken with fried plantain and fried dumplings which was good too. Definitely would try it again so I would recommend it to those who would like to have some nice dining caribbean food.
Had the nicest evening here tonight, went as a unexpected random night out with my twin sister and cousin and I must say I was blown away by the service, the food, the cocktails, the atmosphere it was more then perfect! I absolutely love this place and will be coming here regularly. Thank you again for an amazing service

Really nice experience, I would highly recommend using this restaurant to treat your date, friends, partners or families. Beautiful, quiet, romantic setting. I received outstanding customer service from the waitress and the live music was an extra treat I would recommend paying the extra for the live entertainment.
Thank you Ayanna

Food was very tasty. It was really well prepared and loved the filo pastry basket presentation that was super tasty and so well paired with dishes, it just added something extra. Service was quick, food was at the table in no time. Cocktails were also very good. Wait staff are phenomenal, very attentive at all times. Great Jamaican restaurant, try it you will not regret it!!
A real gem, tucked away in London's Docklands, this restaurant blends all your favourite Jamaican dishes, into a fine dining experience to die for. The food, portion sizes, service and ambiance were perfect.
