I can't stop thinking about the food l had here. I visited 2 weeks ago with a friend and l ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY🤯🤯. Didn't know such restaurants still provided GREAT FOOD, beautiful atmosphere and customer service is very good. I have since recommended it to family and friends and they are just as impressed as l am. I need a loyalty card. The food is fresh, tasty, extremely moorish and l highly recommend to others if you want to impress a date or loved ones. Thank me later 🥰

Enjoyed a first meal at RapChar, on a great recommendation and wasn’t disappointed! Excellent food, wonderful flavours, great service and fab presentations were all exceptional. The modern twist in presenting Caribbean flavours are fantastic. Will definitely return.

Food was mostly very nice, though we found the curried goat slightly over salted. Cocktails were delicious.
