Mango Bay

"Chef/owner London Chase has fashioned a new take on Afro-Caribbean cuisine at Mango Bay. Tucked inside a Fort Greene brownstone, the look hints at the islands (hello, floral wallpaper) blended with city chic (leather booths and exposed brick walls). Casual and welcoming, it's the sort of place you want to go again and again with friends. Snack on starters like a char-grilled octopus tentacle with jerk gremolata over braised collards tossed with burrata, then move on to main dishes like braised oxtail with roasted rainbow carrots. Sides like spicy-sweet mango chow or tender, fried plantains round out the meal in the very best way." - Michelin Inspector
