Editorial Review

Tiny East Village eatery boasts bold Caribbean-French flavors and island-friendly vibe. Tender, West Indian-style lime chicken, fresh fish with passion fruit mustard, and a ten-dollar hanger special top the list. Warm, birch wood bar, casual booth seating, and potent fruit-based cocktails up the ante. Don’t miss the hand-sewn voodoo dolls lining the back wall.
