Mango Bay, a vibrant Afro-Caribbean restaurant in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, has reopened inside a brownstone after securing its liquor license, offering a lively, island-inspired atmosphere across two floors. Led by executive chef London Chase, the menu blends traditional Afro-Caribbean flavors with modern touches, featuring dishes like Ackee and Saltfish Egg Rolls, Braised Oxtail with coconut foam, and a Jerk Burger with pineapple bacon jam. The cocktail program, crafted by bartender Shamah Levy, highlights Caribbean ingredients and inventive twists, like a Calypso Fashioned made with plantain fat-washed Hennessy. Beyond food and drinks, Mango Bay fosters community through events like Sunday Suppers, celebrating culture, art, and music.
