I came across this despicable caterer "thanks to" a friend who innocently recommended it to me for having a great memory of it from five years back. Well, five years on, here's what happened:On a summer's day, another friend of mine and I decided to give it a go. We entered the place, nicely proceeded to the "table for two" ritual, and were abruptly told to wait while a table would be set for us "as soon as possible". We tried to inform the waitress that we'd be sitting at the only outside table, until she’d be able to serve us. Tried that is: hardly had I opened my mouth to let her know that she gave me the fed- up look, saying "she was busy and would do what she can when can”.We sat at the dirty outside table hoping to at least be handed the menu while we'd be waiting. 10 minutes, 15minutes, 20 minutes later STILL NOTHING.I went to the “warm and welcoming” (NOT) waitress to ask for the manager, and guess what: so she was!!!!!!!!! A manager unable to: • Nicely ask CUSTOMERS (aka kings by rule) to patiently wait while a table would be made available for them• Supply menus so they could at least get an idea of what they'd order while waiting for close to 30 minute.• Be diplomatic and amicable, and apply all she should have learnt (but obviously forgot) about CUSTOMER SERVICEI forgot to say that while we patiently waited, about 6 customers arrived and were allocated tables with no wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Not sure what justified for my pregnant friend and I to promptly be relegated to the “waiting” list though, except maybe my “excessive” (for some) and permanent tan... Anyway, here's the outcome: Menus thrown back (after I had to go and get them myself) at the “unmanaging” (Spanish) waitress, various props flying in the air, two upset customers, a bad memory and an even worse review (don't be fooled by the one-star rating, it’s only that the system won't allow me to put none!).

If you like raw prawns and picking the intestines out of them, then this is your place, re-fried potatoes in the casarole, and possibly the worst paella I have ever had. The parma ham and cheese was nice, so I take my hat of to the chef for being able to slice. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I was asked by friends to meet at Jamon Jamon on Saturday evening, I wasn't keen after reading some of the bad reviews.



How wrong could they be? The staff were helpful, friendly and welcoming, the surroundings were spartan but comfortable, and the food excellent and reasonably priced. So it takes 40 mins to bring a (delicious) paella - it was obviously individually and lovingly prepared just for us, not scooped quickly from a communal pot!



I am used to pretentious over-priced restaurants in Brighton - Jamon Jamon is totally the opposite. I loved the sliding roof which gave it a piazza feel. My only slight criticism was that the staff all seemed to be serving all tables which led to small muddles.
Excellent - open in Brighton please!

I visited Jamon Jamon on a Monday night last year and, in addition to the delicious food, a wonderful little guitar duet turned up and did a set of Spanish songs. It made for a truly memorable evening. I would certainly recommend going to Jamon Jamon on a Monday night!

Jamon Jamon is indeed my favourite restaurant in Camden. It's got everything: relaxed atmosphere, courteous, friendly and occasionally hot (male) staff, delicious food in abundance (meat, fish, veg, you name it) and the fabulous Bonbon De Chocolate (chocolate ice-cream for us commoners) is a simple but perfect ending to the already huge meal.

Jamon Jamon also serves delicious sangria and a selection of Latin cocktails like pina colada, beers, wines, etc. which are all good.

OK so it's not cheap but you can get away with being full to bursting and it costs approx £20.00. So, it's not expensive either. Whenever it's dinner time in Camden, it's Jamon Jamon!

Jamon Jamon is so unbelievably bad. At this restaurant they serve chips with tomato sauce poured over them (patatas bravas). Jamon Jamon? Yuk, yuk, yuk!

As well as being a saucy film starring Penelope Cruz, Jamon Jamon is a Spanish restaurant in Camden. Like Ms Cruz they serve up lots of saucy treats, and you could get quite intoxicated after a few hours there. Unsurprisingly for a place called Jamon Jamon (Ham Ham) there were plenty of meat dishes to pick from, as well as veggie dishes for the health fiends out there.
