I finally made my way to La Mode, and babyyy... the food did not disappoint. Everything was super flavorful, seasoned well, and just hit the spot. I went on Resurrection Sunday with a party of 9, and we were seated pretty quickly, which I appreciated because large groups can be tricky. Our waitress was so lovely--attentive, kind, and really added to the overall experience. They seated us upstairs, and I loved that space. It's perfect if you're thinking about hosting something like a birthday dinner or small private event. It had that balance of cozy but still giving "occasion." Now let's talk about the brunch--because that's really the star. They had a brunch + karaoke vibe going on, which made the atmosphere fun without being overwhelming. The bottomless mimosa deal (plus a starter, entrée, and dessert) was actually worth the price, which isn't always the case at brunch spots. Overall, this is definitely a place I'd come back to--whether it's for a cute brunch, a group outing, or hosting something special. read more

Here for a family repast and the staff was awesome in making everyone comfortable and welcome. Enjoyed the tacos, pot stickers and chicken tenders and wings! Something special with their sauces too! On chicken tenders or their pot stickers. Nice vibe with a large tv over the bar and music isn't too loud for table conversations. There is a nice upstairs area for lounging that has a great view of the restaurant and the other TV's on the walls. Did I mention the stew chicken, steamed vegetables and house salad with their scrumptious house dressing? How about the oxtails?!? Okay, now that I did...come on by! read more

La'Mode BK - Asian Fusion Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I think this is my third time here! The food is slamming, hot temp wise and very flavorful. I had the carnival salmon with rice and peas and sweet plantains. No complaints! My boyfriend devoured his snapper! The drinks are strong but not a bad strong, a well balanced and nicely mixed strong. The lychee martini was delicious and my boyfriend's coconut rum punch was creamy and packed a punch for sure. Service is attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in. Always a plus. They had a DJ so it was a little on the loud side but it was Friday night! It was also freezing where we sat, thankfully I had my jacket. read more

I came here apart of the Kwanzaa crawl local and black owned bar experience and it did not disappoint. The dj was amazing. He definitely kept the crowd dancing. They even had a Photo Booth. We ordered food and they definitely realized we needed food fast. And them chicken wings were amazing. This is another local black owned bar that I didn't know about. And I will definitely be back here to support this local business. read more

No thank you ‍. Really disappointed in the food, and drinks. They didn't have a Diet Coke and out loads of ice in the virgin drink. The fried rice wasn't eatable. It was rice and peas without the peas w/ a little of frozen peas. The only thing that was good was the fish cakes. Mac and cheese 5/10 and oxtail dinner 5/10. Truly disgusting read more

The appetizers that I had were really good! The whiting fish tacos were fresh and seasoned and the fresh veggies it is served with were good. The shrimp were delicious! The codfish cakes were decent, I would get them next time with the sweet sauce on the side. The decor is comfy. They have high, low and bar seating, as well as outdoor! Felt welcomed upon walking in. read more

This restaurant came highly recommended but I have to say I was disappointed. My girlfriends and I started with appetizers. We had the cod fish cakes, bang bang shrimp and wings. The wings were very sweet, the shrimp and the cod fish cakes were ok. We all ordered oxtails but was told they didn't have any that day. After being disappointed, we ordered the Thai Butter Shrimp which came with rice - again the shrimp was very sweet - so much so we didn't like it. We also ordered a side of Mac and cheese which was ok. The restaurant itself is cute and the service was good but without good food I honestly can't give a higher rating. read more

I came around the holidays. They had just opened. I believe I was the first guest of the day. I was the only guest dining while I was there. However that didn't stop me from being served to the highest standard. It's absolutely beautiful inside. With so much art to enjoy. Murals all around. My food was delicious. I will say, the whole fish was a bit pricey. I believe about $50, as it may have been "market priced", however I don't regret my choice! When I went, it was happy hour, so I was able to indulge in a couple of the bartenders recommended selections! Those did not disappoint either! read more

A group of us got together to celebrate a friend's milestone birthday. This place is very cozy and has very good food. Although it took forever to receive my entree, my friends received there food in a timely manner and their dishes were soo good. Thank goodness for the appetizers (cod fish cakes, and escovitch bites), they did not disappoint at all. The bartender made excellent lemon drops and this really good cucumber drink. I cannot wait to come back to NYC, they will be back on my dinner list. Unfortunately not photos were taken, but trust you will not be disappointed. read more

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at La'Mode BK and this is now the second time this has happened. Both visits, they ran out of red snapper. This past Friday was especially unacceptable. My friend and I placed our orders without issue. I stepped away briefly, and when I returned, I was told I needed to reorder because they had "run out" of snapper. When I questioned why the electronic menu did not indicate the item was sold out, the waitress explained that while she was entering my order, someone called in requesting red snapper and they gave it to the caller instead. Let me be clear: a phone-in order should never take priority over a customer who is physically present and has already placed their order. That is a serious lapse in customer service and basic business etiquette. If inventory is limited, it should be updated immediately and honored on a first-come, first-served basis especially for dine-in guests. This situation reflects poor inventory management and even worse customer service judgment. After two visits with the same issue, it's hard not to feel like in-house customers are an afterthought. Management seriously needs to reevaluate how orders are prioritized and how inventory is handled. This experience was frustrating, disrespectful, and completely avoidable. read more

The food was delicious I'm sorry there are no pictures. It was that good. I went for happy hour and ordered jerk meatballs, escovitch tacos, and chicken. The flavors were off the chain! The service was top tier. Our server/bartender was Marquise. He took us from mango margaritas to sorrel martinis. They were so good we had to have 2! We talked about coming back for brunch but we weren't sure of the rum punch he gave us both a little sample! That's a way to keep us coming back. The restaurant exudes black excellence with the paintings and decor. read more

Had to give this place a second chance because I knew Kwanzaa Crawl wasn't a fair take on the place & it was nice. Entered today around 5:45pm and we were the only ones inside. Two stories, red/black decor with a huge mural, but appeared a bit dirk. Huge tv with baseball playing and no music until 6:30pm which ended up being Caribbean slow jams at the perfect volume to talk. Ordered the $10 happy hour ginger margarita, $10 Thai chilli wings (not too impressed) , $14 escovitch tacos (spicy fried whiting ), $24 jerk chicken (spicy & authentically flavorful and crispy) and $30 shrimp (sweet curry) w/ jasmine rice & sweet plantains. Everything that we had (except the wings) were a ten! The waitress was nice, but I do wish they were a little swifter. May be great for others as there was no rush. read more

My friend took me here to celebrate my birthday and I had an amazing time. First of all, let me apologize for my pics because I was hungry and started eating then remembered I didn't take pictures. It's all good tho because the food and drinks were delicious. I had the classic jerk chicken with rice and peas and plantains. This was the best rice and peas I've had since my mom's. The coconut flavor in the rice was as if they actually grated the coconut in there. The portion size was enough to share and I ended up brining it home. My friend had the pasta with chicken and that was so delicious, just filled with flavor. And the drinks...we both had a rum punch. The bartender didn't skimp on the rum at all. Great choice! There was a live band and I was lucky enough to have them sing happy birthday. Overall, great establishment, friendly service and atmosphere and amazing food/drinks. They also have outdoor seating. Eat, drink and enjoy! read more

Food was cold. Service was slow. We had to ask for water refills, and a RAT crawled on and scratched me and my partner's legs. It ran across the restaurant, multiple patrons leapt up and screamed. Servers and staff did nothing and still charged us full price with an 18% gratuity already added to the bill. Be careful when dining here. read more

I had a terrible experience, upon arrival the bartender was extremely pleasant providing us the expectation for a great meal, and we received the complete opposite. One plate took 45mins-1hr to arrive and the other NEVER CAME! All they had for us was excuses and I had to call and request to speak to a manager for them to explain why our food took so long and that all they could provide is a 15% discount and WHEN LIKE I SAID OUR FOOD NEVER CAME AND OTHER ONE TOOK A HOUR TO COME! Won't be returning honestly, will at least say the mocktails we had were great, but they were gone by the time our one plate came. 2/10. read more

This is such a great place. My friend and I were able to get a weekend dinner reservation a day in advance. We were greeted by a woman I believe the be the owner. She was very warm and welcoming. Once we were seated we were introduced to our server. The menus are on iPads. You can select your items there and have your server review and add items from iPad. Appetizers: escovitch fish bites was a large portion/ enough to share and very delicious Also ordered the escovitch shrimp with bang bang sauce. So good! Entree: jerk chicken was good but it doesn't taste like it was marinated for a long time. The sauce was good but the chicken itself was ok. You are allowed two sides. Orders rice and peas with plantain We also ordered the macaroni which is delicious! Definitely order.the cheesy mashed potatoes needs work. It needed, butter and salt. The only flavor was the cheese thrown on top. Drinks were good. Not stingy with alcohol. They did take a long time to come. They came after our food was served. Bar may need additional staff for weekends. This place has two levels. It appears to accommodate large groups/ private events on the 2nd floor read more

I was able to stop by while I was in New York visiting family. I was the first of our party to get there and was able to meet one of the owners. He was very kind and told me a little bit about his history in the restaurant business, along with his wife. We were seated in the upper level where it has more of an Asian vibe. The owner stated that the restaurant is supposed to be a Caribbean-Asian fusion. The decor was beautifully done. You feel like you're in the Caribbean downstairs, which is contrasted with the Asian theme up top. I had the oxtail dinner with rice and beans. My sister had the pasta and she added jerk chicken to it and my cousin had the escovich fish. The food was very flavorful, but almost everything was really spicy. That is not a bad thing for me, but I would say if you are not big on spice, then please be aware before you order. read more

We came here after spending time at the Brooklyn Museum. When you enter the restaurant, the Caribbean and Asian fusion theme is prevalent. The afrobeats playing throughout blends with the colors, murals, and Asian decor upstairs. Our server was attentive throughout the meal, checking in with us and refilling our water. The ginger martini was refreshing and not overpowering, and my love ordered the Lychee martini which she enjoyed. The cod fish cakes were phenomenal, and the sweet chili sauce paired with it perfectly. We ordered the fish to share, and we both had plenty between us. I'm a huge fan of fried snapper, and this did not disappoint. The flavors jumped off the table, and it had a great crisp to it. The vegetables and plantains were cooked perfectly, and the jasmine rice and rice and peas were well seasoned. I enjoyed the festivals, as they were more flaky than I'm used to. I look forward to future visits here, as I'm sure it's a vibe in more crowded times. read more

My boyfriend and I went to this restaurant after going to the Brooklyn Museum, which is a seven minute drive away. Once we entered the restaurant there was Afrobeats playing in the background. You have the option between high top tables or smaller two seater tables near the mural. The upstairs seating is reservation only which is nice for events and birthday parties but a little warm. The ambience was festive and lively, but not too loud thankfully. The service was really great. Our waitress was friendly and attentive to ensure that we were OK and got what we needed in a timely manner. We ordered the codfish fitters for appetizers with ginger and lychee martinis to start. For the main course we got the stew fish with jasmine rice and rice and peas with a side of festivals and plantain. The codfish fritters were delicious and slightly spicy. I loved the dipping sauce that came with it that balanced the flavors. My Lychee martini was great and lasted throughout the whole meal. I only needed one which is what I love about Caribbean restaurants. You don't need many drinks one goes along way. The ginger martini was refreshing. I definitely recommend getting it. The main event was the fish that we shared between us. For me personally my favorites were the jasmine rice, vegetables and fish. The fish was perfectly seasoned with a little bit of crisp. Every bit tasted soo good! At the beginning I had to pause and just savor the seasoned goodness It paired well with the jasmine rice and vegetables, which included broccoli, onions, carrot strips, and cabbage. The festivals were my next favorite meal item. They were super sweet, but when you eat them with the fish the flavors balance out. I would definitely recommend coming here for date night or with friends. This restaurant serves quality food packed with flavor! The Vibe is fun and festive. You can have a conversation without overbearing music. read more

La'Mode has been on my list for a long time! The restaurant fuses Caribbean and Asian food and the flavors are there. I ordered so much food that I had leftovers for two days. The portion size makes the price worth it. La'Mode has an upstairs seating area and they play Caribbean music. My food recommendations: - Codfish fritters: good mix of spice and you get 5 fritters which I appreciated! - Fried Rice: has a mix of good veggies with good flavor. It was not super oily and the portion size was huge. I thought it could be an entree by itself. - Jerk chicken: if you like spice, that jerk sauce has it. Also, the jerk chicken tastes like someone made it on an outside grill. Very authentic. - Baked mac and cheese: tastes like it was made in someone's house and you can tell they use different cheeses to make it! The drinks are also delicious. We only had mocktails: Thai basil lemonade and the lychee Mojito. Both were delicious. A lot of the drinks have coconut in them so if you're a fan of coconut, this is a spot for you. Honestly, I'm trying to go through the whole menu because the food was so good so just go! The service did take a bit of time but the food and drinks were freshly made and prepared. read more

La'Mode is the perfect restaurant! From out of town & Jamaican, so glad I tried the food, everything was perfectly spiced like home. Amazing Atmosphere, the attention to detail from the designers is impeccable. Although not usually a kid place, my 2 boys LOVED and had 2 veggie side dishes, told me I need to get the recipe, haha! The band had them out of their seats dancing with everyone. There's a SECRET room for quiet date nights and special service. Went back for Sunday brunch. Amazing Mimosas, with fruit in the glass. They even gave my boy a special bowl of just mangoes . Anywhere that treats your family special is a win in my book!! Only got to have 1, but rare to find endless brunch mimosas for $20 anymore! read more

Mistakenly thought this would be a good place to celebrate my father's 70th birthday. Here are all the things that went as poorly as they could: 1. The hostess was surprised by our party of 5 arriving on time for our reservation despite having confirmed 3 times during the month. She had to drag tables together and clean them in front of us. 2. She gave us water after at least 10 minutes after being seated. We did not receive glasses to drink said water until 20 minutes after being seated--only 4 for a party of 5. 3. No question about what allergies we might have. 4. We ordered one pork and one veggie dumpling. What we got was one pork and one chicken. My cousin, the vegetarian, unfortunately found out that the order was chicken and not veggie. 5. Approximately over an hour after putting in our food orders, they came to tell us that there was no more "curry goat" so we had to order something else. The excuse was having a party of 40--well-managed establishments have a pre-fixe menu for large parties, increased staff and sufficient ingredients. 6. We didn't start getting our food until two hours after being seated. My cousin got hers first, 15 mins later my father, and then 10 minutes later the rest of us. 7. The food was mediocre at best. My jerk chicken was on a small plate and my peas and rice was in a bowl. Small thing but made eating both at the same time more difficult than it would have been to put it on the same plate or to provide a plate for eating. For our troubles, they gave us a generous 5% discount ($13.35). Still paid for $324.19 (18% automatic gratuity). For this price point, I expect a lot better. read more

This weekend I had the luxury of dining at La' Mode BK. Upon entering I was greeted by the sexiest hostess who was quite pleasant. The layout is very nice with ample amount of seating both downstairs and upstairs. The decor is very stylish. For my meal I decided to try the Devon Curry Goat. The food was very well presented to me by the owner herself. I felt special..lol. The curry goat, rice and peas and vegetables were cooked to perfection. Very delicious! Also my beverage of choice was the Rum Punch. The drink was very strong and tasty! I was wondering who was behind the bar. Apparently the bartender (Tony) is very well known in Brooklyn. Overall I had a very enjoyable time and delicious dinner. Impeccable service with great music. I would definitely dine with La'Mode BK again. read more

If you are looking for bar to hang out on an off night maybe this is your place. If you are looking for a dining experience DON'T expect it here. We went for their Mother's Day dinner. I don't know where to begin. We a had a reservation which I admit we were early and they attempted to accommodate us. First the table was not fully set with place setting for our party of 5. Don't know why they seated us when they weren't ready but that seemed to be the theme for the night, NOT READY, from the blaring music to being served appetizers with no cocktail plates to eat off. We placed our orders and only part of the orders came out while the rest of our party sat waiting for their meals (party of 5 with 3 meals coming out and two of us waiting on the rest for a while). We ended up asking for to go containers for the last two entrees, they took so long to bring. This was baffling because they had a preset menu which means they were only making specific items for the day. Our server was not very approachable and made herself scarce after taking the orders. Water was served once and NO follow for any other needs. Eventually I had to go to the manager and express my disdain for the way things were being handled. Her remedy was to offer some drinks. We weren't interested, then she offered 15% off which ended up being 15% off a few items not the entire bill. At this point we just wanted to get the helll out of there and literally had to go and get our bill because when we kept asking for it they kept saying they were calculating. The two stars are for the food & drinks which were actually good, well seasoned and nicely plated. So here is my advice order the food but don't dine in. Don't know if they are on any food delivery apps but that's the best way to try La Mode Brooklyn. There is potential here, they are just NOT READY yet. read more

Let me start off by saying upon entry, no one was there to greet nor seat us. We decided to sit at the bar and wait until the rest of our party arrived. While at the bar, we had been sitting for 20 minutes with out being welcomed or given an option to place an order. Since I was meeting family there, my cousin explained that he experienced the wait time but was given a reason of " busy/overwhelmed". The establishment had party of two in the restaurant. Nevertheless, since I was meeting family, I said let me overlook this baseline customer service issue, and place an order. After sitting for the 20 minutes, we had to request a MENU... very strange since this business is providing a service and in my my mind one of the main goals is to get guests to spend money... Anyway, my cousin had a beautiful chocolate martini, based off the presentation of that drink, I ordered ​ one with my dinner.... what i received was a watered down, no presentation drink and when I pointed out that it doesn't look like my cousins drink, the bartender said " I'm overwhelmed and I got you next time"... sighs, remember customer service.. what is that? Tip, presentation matters.. customer service matters and for me it's a priority.. it balances out for poor quality food.. Speaking of food, items that were on the menu were not availble, unfortunately. I thought, establishment just opened for the day, and don't have items for me to purchase on the menu.. sighs... In addition, I ordered Dumplings as an appetizer ( amazing) Red Snapper Escovitch, with rice and peas and veggies. The fish was amazing, the veggies weren't so bad but the rice was horribly sticky. The consistency of the rice was like mash potatoes...​​ In Conclusion, my family and I agreed, we will not go back to this restaurant.. it lacks quality food, and most importantly customer service! read more
