“ I’ve been ordering Wha Gwan since I moved to Wandsworth. I though I would pop in and dine since it’s my favourite Caribbean place in the borough. I can say it was one of my favourite experiences the owners were so kind and friendly. Very humbling to see people working hard while delivering the best food. The food was ridiculously delicious and fresh all the pastries and salads were fresh and tasty. The pepper steak was fantastic the meat was tender and succulent and the sauce was incredible. I can’t wait to be hungry tomorrow to grab some more. Thank you to the Wha Gwan team for making some of my favourite food and feeding their local community. ”

“ This place is a winner! Recently tried this Jamaican take-out and it was fantastic. The oxtail was tender, the pepper steak had just the right kick, and the jollof rice was bursting with flavour. And to top it off, the plantains were the perfect complement to the dishes. The owner's hospitality is top-notch, and we had a great talk about Jamaican cooking. As a first-time customer, I couldn't have been more satisfied. A must-visit for anyone craving authentic Jamaican cuisine. Although I missed out on the jerk chicken this time (sold out!), I'll definitely be back here again to try some more. Highly recommend! ”
“ Food is beyond perfect, I had peppered steak and Jollof rice and can definitely say I will be trying many more meals here. Peter was amazing and such a down to earth guy. ”
“ Really good service and very helpful, even let me sample first before buying! Cost 13.50 for a big serving of oxtail & rice and peas, plus the cabbage which is a bit expensive for one meal but they gave lots of meat and it tasted great. ”
