Guanabana Restaurant

"There aren’t many halal Sunday roasts in London, but the jerk beef number at Guanabana, a Caribbean restaurant on Kentish Town Road, is the best. It’s a hefty plate of food, with the right ratio of rich jerk gravy to everything else. The perfect bite includes spicy, tender jerk beef, the edge of a crispy roast potato, a caramelised baby carrot, a piece of sweet plantain, and an unevenly cut corner of a yorkshire pudding soaked in gravy." - rianne shlebak

"There aren’t many halal Sunday roasts in London, so we’re very grateful for the excellent jerk beef number at Guanabana, a Caribbean restaurant on Kentish Town Road. It has the right ratio of rich jerk gravy to everything else. The perfect bite at this laid-back spot includes a little bit of everything: spicy, tender jerk beef, the edge of a crispy roast potato, a caramelised baby carrot, a piece of sweet plantain, and a corner of a beautifully deformed yorkshire pudding that’s soaked in gravy. Get a side of mac and cheese to make a near-perfect plate of food even better." - jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley

"There are a few meals that, when done well, are worth crossing London for. And the jerk beef Sunday roast at Guanabana, a casual Caribbean spot in Camden, is one of them. The perfect bite includes spicy, tender jerk beef, the edge of a crispy roast potato, a caramelised baby carrot, a piece of sweet plantain, and an unevenly cut corner of a yorkshire pudding that’s soaked in gravy." - team infatuation

"There aren’t many halal Sunday roasts in London, but the jerk beef number at Guanabana, a Caribbean restaurant on Kentish Town Road, is the best. Load up your fork with tender jerk beef, crispy roast potato, a caramelised baby carrot, a piece of sweet plantain, and the edge of a yorkshire pudding soaked in gravy. No one will look twice if you rock up in your trackies. The chef dashes out order after order from the open kitchen, and on a Sunday, when the roast service is in full swing, it can all get a little bit chaotic, in a good way." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley

"Guanabana, a Caribbean restaurant on Kentish Town Road, serves one of the best Sunday roasts in the city. A perfect bite includes a little bit of everything: spicy, tender jerk beef, the edge of a crispy roast potato, a caramelised baby carrot, a piece of sweet plantain, and an unevenly cut corner of a yorkshire pudding. It’s a laid-back spot that’s good for small groups, and during the week there are Caribbean-inspired dishes like a peppery jerk chicken alfredo, or a lamb curry that feels homecooked." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
