About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
  • Hot spot
Negril BK is offering offering a Bold Innovative Caribbean menu in a fun and welcoming setting. The space (200 plus seats) is divided into three rooms. The main dining room depicts a cool, relaxing island decor with  “one love” gracing the banana leaf clad wall. The space can be used for private dining and events as well as large parties.
In the center of the space is Negril BK’s lounge where guests can enjoy original Caribbean-style cocktails, such as Negril BK Frozen Rum Punch. The welcoming Caribbean-esque setting includes a mural paying homage to the Culture of Carnival and Steel pan, and local DJ’s and weekend live music create an energetic and lively island vibe.
Negril BK’s final room features the “Rum Shop” – a late-night speakeasy with a take on a classic Caribbean rum shop. The “Rum Shop” serves only rum based cocktails, featuring rums from all over the Caribbean. Name a rum and you’ll find it at the “Rum Shop.”

    It was overall good. The waiter was great. The food was good. I just didn’t realize that if you make a reservation at 2:30pm, you can’t be late at all because they close the kitchen apparently at like 2:45ish to prepare for dinner. So they take the orders at that time and the kitchen closes. I mean my party was good but just something to keep in mind if you make that 2:30pm brunch reservations.

    If you like West Indian cuisine, and upscale but casual dining this is your new spot! My husband and I had dinner there last Sunday and the food was excellent, the service was friendly and the vibe was lively, but not too much so. My husband and I shared the lamb meatballs and a plantain and shrimp dish for appetizers and I would definitely make sure to try the lamb meatballs again next time. We are both of West Indian heritage and went with our test meals for dinner: I had the curried goat with roti and my husband had the jerk chicken with pumpkin rice and greens. We both fully enjoyed our meals, leaving nothing behind, and agreed that the food was authentic with a Park Slope kinda spin. I also enjoyed their tamarind mojitos (too much so to be honest!) and we had a delicious banana bread pudding with rum raisin ice cream for dessert. It came out with a candle and the lovely waiter even sang, since it was my birthday. As we were leaving my husband even had a nice conversation with the owner and chef. A five star experience all around!

    I came here for my birthday celebration. When you first walk in and see the ambiance it is a modern tropical feel. The bartenders mix the drinks strong and consistent. Food was delicious and variety of dishes. It is great for dates and can accomodate groups.

    Food was delicious. Music was entertaining. The frozen rum punch was pricey but it hit the spot. Everything was great up until the last minute. The bill was paid and my date went to use the restroom before we left. The table was wiped down while I was still sitting there. That took a little away from my experience but I'll give it one more try.
