A few days before we left this year my OH wasn't well, so I went for something to eat by myself. Heard a female singing in here and thought I would give it a try, having not eaten here before. I was the only customer in at the time, and although I got my first drink without problem, because I... More

Went there last night, and at first confused it with some open air version of a Northern Club, from Uk. Begining was a bit slow with stiff upper lips, resrved crowd, clapping gentley, after every song. Bluesmania, changed all that with some dance plays, routines and got a Russian female , to do some exotic dancing, after which more joined... More

We went to Jambalaya in 2010 for an organised party for friends of ours who were celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary and we had a pleasant evening. What a contrast to this year! Either the place has been taken over or the money they made off our friends last year induced some sort of alter beings. We popped in one... More

Four of us went to Jambalaya after reading some great reviews. Sorry but I was very dissapointed. The live music was a guy who could barely sing. The food was avarage and nothing to write home about. I got the impression that the place was a meeting place for brits who were looking for a bit of Benidorm in Candolim.... More
