    Finally made it!
    Alysha J.

    This place is a hidden gem! If you like soca and dancehall music this is the place for you. Who doesn't want to be serenaded while partaking a meal that checks all the boxes. From BBq pig tail, lo mein, and lychee martinis. I came happy and left happier! The service was top tier. We had a table adjacent to the bar and were served by the bartender himself. We ordered all of his favorites and were amazed more and more with each dish that arrived.

    Entered through the back (the GPS said the entrance was on that street..it's not ), and it took a few minutes for me to be greeted and escorted to the bar in the front. Once seated, the experience began Food - crab cake 5/5 snapper 5/5 drinks 3.5/5. A lot of things are spicy (it's Caribbean food) so just let the servers know your preference and they'll take good care of you Service - server was phenomenal. Took awhile to get service, afterwards the Asian gentleman ensured I had all I wanted Ambiance - FUN! FUN! FUN! Great music and nice people at the bar that I socialized with! A solo date worth my time money and energies!! This was a birthday gift to myself and I'm happy I came. 2 thumbs up and will return and highly recommended

    Wow. Idk if I came on a good day, but they had a $65 dinner for two. Two appetizers, two entrees, one dessert & two wines per couple. I had to ask three times & two different people to make sure I was hearing right and they didn't skimp on the portion! I was so stuffed I had to take the coconut bread pudding to go and half of my salmon/mashed potato entree. The four jumbo shrimp with sweet plantain & a green tamarind sauce was fulfilling & delicious. The Prosecco was perfect with a dried orange slice, making the whole experience seamless. Now the food came out so quickly that I almost wondered if it was pre-made but I wasn't complaining. Servers were nice, colorful space with two TVs near the bar and a back room for overflow. I'll definitely be back. And oh yea, don't come if you don't like soca. Gave it a festive atmosphere and I thought it'd be great for an upbeat brunch.

    Guava lychee

    The ambiance is cute. I got a guava lychee rum drink in a purse glassware. It was very good. The drink is cute and it came with a sparkler and fruits inside. However it cost over $35. The music was good at the place. Many large parties were celebrating birthdays.My boyfriend had oxtails, mashed potatoes, and cabbage. the oxtails were delicious and that mashed posttoes were so buttery and garlicky. The service took quick a bit to get our food over 40 mins to get our food. I highly recommend coming here with a reservation because they do get busy.

    The coconut margarita with coconut flakes
    Yahaira D.

    Super cute spot! I didn't get a chance to try the food because the bar was packed, but the happy hour drinks made up for it. Huge shoutout to the bartender in the back he was so warm and welcoming, and every drink he made was spot-on. I'll definitely be back to try the food next time!

    Coconut margarita and sorrel margarita
    Cheri G.

    We Came for taco Tuesday. Pros: they serve $5 margaritas and they offer diff flavors coconut, passion fruit , sorrel , guava and there isnt a upcharge for the flavors. I ordered the sorrel and passion fruit both were very good;nice strength to it. The better flavor was the sorrel. The decor was nice modern and stylish. The music was good nice caribbean vibes. The 1 server in the back was nice but because it was just him and the place was extremely busy, he didnt get to check in with us much. Cons: you are required to order a appetizer per person at the table in order to partake in the $5 margaritas. There is a woman seating people but she is rude. Her whole aura was off. The menu says you MAY be charged gratuity, however they absolutely charged 20% gratuity to our table of 2 bill. Overall: we ended up ordering the tacos you get 2 to an order. I did the jerk chicken my friend did the fish tacos. We shared. The portion is filling. The flavor ehhh... the fish needed a little salt and the jerk needed some authenticity. It really was grilled chicken with a jerk bbq sauce on it lol. The tacos were a cheaper option then forcefully ordering a appetizer just to be able to partake in the drink special.

    Trinidad Chinese Salmon with Garlic Mash and Mango Slaw
    Keshia C.

    I always see this place in passing but happy I was able to try it out. The star of the show is the Mango Slaw. It was very rich, seasoned and fresh. I truly enjoyed my experience. The Salmon and the garlic mash did not disappoint. Will definitely go back. It has a great happy hour, 5-7pm and 10pm till close. The vibe fits Flatbush.

    It was suggested by a family member to spend my birthday at Sugar'd because of their great food. I'm happy that I decided to come here because my family and I had a wonderful time at Sugar'd. I love the gigantic colorful planters outside of the restaurant. The decor outside and inside of the restaurant was very nice especially the back of the restaurant. We opted to dine outside because the weather was wonderful. Caribbean music was playing through the speaker which we enjoyed during our dining experience. Service was absolutely fantastic and professional the entire time. They made it even more special when they knew that I was celebrating my birthday. Everyone enjoyed their drinks and I loved my virgin piña colada. Let's get into the food details. Oh my goodness, we all enjoyed our food very much. Everything that came out looked spectacular and delicious. I loved how most of our main entrees came out together so we can eat together. That was cool. Most of our dinner party ordered the braised oxtail. It was delectable. I haven't had oxtails which tasted that good in years. It was so good that I was still looking for my meat in my stew after I finished the last oxtail lol. Both of my sons ordered shrimps and they both enjoyed their meals. The staff brought out my birthday cake with sparklers and sang to me for my birthday which was really amazing. My birthday was extra special because of the service and food provided by Sugar'd. Thank you Sugar'd for a wonderful birthday experience. I will definitely visit again.

    Glass Purse Drink. (I forgot the name, but it's the only drink you need.

    We had a few drinks and shots at the bar before diving into our delicious food! The drinks, food, the ambiance all passed the vibes check! We will be back.

    I decided to check sugar'd Every dish was bursting with bold aromatic flavors. you can taste the authenticity in everything bite, bringing the spirt of Trinidad to life on a plate. The star of the show was the jerk wings had the perfect amount of spice & a ton of flavor. The drinks here are absolutely outstanding! Each cocktail is perfectly balanced, with unique flavors that are both refreshing and bold. All it takes it a few sips of one drink to have you feeling nice. The vibes were definitely there they had a great song selection. Whether you're savoring a decadent dessert or enjoying a beautifully plated entrée, Sugar'd offers a one-of-a-kind dining experience that feels both sophisticated and fun

    Ali M.

    Sugar'd impressed from the start with their thoughtful reservation confirmation call. The gorgeous interior and welcoming staff (shoutout to Alex and Kyron!) set the tone for an amazing evening. Every dish delighted: Flavor-packed jerk wings Fresh shrimp with zesty mango slaw My buss up with extra chutney was divine Flawless service, fair prices, and incredible flavors - already planning my next visit! A true hidden gem.

    Something about Caribbean food when the winter weather's frigid sounds dandy to me. Guess if you…read morecan't be somewhere tropical, eating tropical cuisine sure helps. Enter The Islands. It was sort of an odd time so the spacious restaurant wasn't very busy. We studied the menu for too long and after much deliberation, here's what we ordered, in order of spice level: - Oxtail ($35): Not spicy, super flavorful, "Trimmed and sliced chunks of oxtail seasoned freely with fresh spices and simmered to tender perfection." - Curry goat ($29): Mildly spicy, "Goat meat marinated and cooked in curry spices and herbs makes this an exotic dish." - Jerk chicken ($20): Apparently incredibly spicy so I steered clear of it, "A Jamaican delight. Spicy, delicious chicken baked with this unique combination of spices from the island." The dishes I could handle were excellent, with no drop of sauce left unmopped. On the sides front, the rice and beans, roti, steamed vegetables, and plantains were all tasty. The entree sizes were hearty. Our server seemed like a cool dude: easygoing with a sense of humor. It was kind of chilly in the restaurant, not sure if we were in a warmth dead zone or what. The bathroom was frog-themed which was a cute touch!

The friendly one woman staff helped seat us, recommend the dishes, made the drinks, prepped and served the food. It was all tasty. What's to cheer - Nice not to too sweet homemade rum punch - Solid, flavorful oxtail. Very island spiced and cooked well - Goat was also really strong - Reasonable prices - service with personality What's to jeer - they were out of the jerk chicken unfortunately which I really wanted to try - place is pretty low key and not swimming with ambience

They also offer hookah, which adds to the social atmosphere. The food was okay. I ordered the oxtails, but they were a bit spicier than I prefer, so I didn't enjoy them as much as I hoped. One thing I really appreciated was the thoughtful service. Since I was still wearing my cap and gown, the staff surprised me with a complimentary ice cream dessert to celebrate my graduation, which was a very kind gesture and made the experience feel special.

It came out as two huge slices of sourdough stacked so high that I couldn't even finish one. For something that expensive, there should absolutely be some indication of portion size, or at minimum the waiter should mention it when ordering. Avocado toast also isn't exactly something you can box up and save for later, so a lot of it just went to waste. Honestly, the menu feels arrogantly overpriced, what avocado toast dish is pushing $30? The only thing that seemed reasonably priced was the $35 bottomless brunch. Overall, the pricing felt excessive and the lack of transparency made the experience frustrating.

When I asked for some spice the server brought us some pepper sauce which was exactly what I needed! My sister tried their jerk wings and mac and cheese. Their Mac and cheese is WOW. Definitely recommend! I didn't try their wings but I tried the sauce that comes with the wings and it had a lovely kick to it. For dessert we shared the Plantain Paradise and the ice cream paired so great with the plantains. It was vanilla ice cream but didn't taste like regular vanilla ice cream.. it had a nice rich texture .

I'm Dominican so I know oxtail pretty well and have made it myself. Thankfully, this place absolutely delivered. The oxtail was perfectly slow-braised, tender, and falling right off the bone -- exactly how it should be. Absolutely amazing. Of course I had the rice and peas, plus some veggies. A few of the veggies were slightly overcooked, but still flavorful and enjoyable. The drinks looked incredible, but I went with the rum punch and loved it. It was a little sweet, but super flavorful, strong, and definitely worth ordering again. For dessert, I had the Hennessy cheesecake, which was rich, decadent, and unbelievably delicious. There were three of us dining, and we all left completely satisfied -- with take-home containers because the portions are VERY generous. The only thing that bothered me a bit was that our server seemed to focus most of her attention on my friend. She is Jamaican, and because I look like a white American woman, I felt a little overlooked at times, even when I had several requests myself. We also had to look for her a couple of times while she was sitting with a group nearby. That said, everyone overall was very nice and welcoming. The bussers especially stood out -- they checked on us often, kept everything clean, and even greeted me in Spanish, which I appreciated.

For my hubby, Brooklyn is home - and we always love exploring the new places the city has to offer when we visit. We had reservations, and were seated within 10 minutes, which was reasonable. The place was packed - everyone was in high spirits, and I was ready to taste some of the best Caribbean cuisine in the region. My hubby's best friend - a Brooklyn resident, joined us. He had been to the restaurant a few times - and had good things to say. We were not disappointed. I had the Brown Stew Red Snapper - *chef's kiss*. Hubby had the iconic Jerk Oxtail over Macaroni & Cheese Pie! The English language cannot convey the beauty of that combination! Tender, tender oxtail, falling off the bone with the creamy, cheesy mac & cheese! He wanted to savor that dish another day, so he got a to-go bag and took it back to the hotel! (I couldn't help but clean my plate - I was obsessed with the fish!) Our friend enjoyed the Hennessy Fried Shrimp (not pictured) - one of his favorite dishes at the restaurant. It looked delicious as well. For drinks, I had the Bob Marley cocktail. A colorful drink - flavorful - and effective! There were people celebrating their birthdays throughout the night - and the wait staff goes IN! I was enjoying watching at least 10 people receive the Stevie Wonder "Happy Birthday" song while we were there. Imagine my surprise when it was my turn! My birthday was the day before, and we had already celebrated in Manhattan. Having two special recognition events made the evening that much more special! Shout out to the Simpson crew who came with the song, the rhythm, the sparkling cake, and the good vibes! My 70th birthday was exceptional - without a doubt. The Simpson added the touch I needed. We'll definitely go back next time we're in Brooklyn!
