About Nzuko
Nzuko offers the tastes of the Caribbean with the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. The idea of marrying these two seemingly disparate cultures may appear to be a stretch at first glance. The common thread, however, is their joie de vivre.... More

Customer Reviews
The food was delish. The hummus is a must, it's smooth and had with 3 different flavors it's fun to share. Went to eat for a girl's dinner, shared 3 apps and 2 kabob plates. We got hummus, chonch fritters and cheese mannish. The hummus and fritters were great, would definitely order again. The cheese mannish was not what I expected, it was good it's was like a flat bread pizza. (We were expecting a dip.) The prawns kebob's were cooked perfect, and tender and juicy. The salad was nice. The lamb kebob's were slightly over cooked. Definitely give this place a try! It's definitely worth you're time.
Went here on Friday night with my cousin and this place does not disappoint. The food was so amazing especially the macaroni and cheese. It had to be the best macaroni cheese I’ve ever had in my life. As a Haitian American, I know that Caribbean food takes a long time to make, and this is worth the weight. The staff was so sweet and the owner was so sweet. They gave us a complementary sample of their soup. The fried pork a.k.a. Griot, was cooked in a different way and it was so delicious. I will 100% be going there again.
I usually don't write negative review, but this resturant really left me a mixed feeling. The pricing is comparable to a fine-dining restaurant, but the atmosphere/service feels more like a fast-casual spot where you quickly grab lunch. The food quality was fine, but it wasn’t impressive enough to justify the cost. The pictures uploaded by the owner are defintely misleading and I don't understand why the rating is so high. Additionally, the listed price range of $30–50 seems inaccurate. It’s likely averaged down by the under-$20 lunch wraps they offer, but in reality, a full dinner experience falls closer to $50–100 per person. Service was slow, and some staff seemed inexperienced. Our beverages were forgotten initially, and our main dishes arrived before the appetizers. While these issue
I was just here over the weekend with my cousin and let me tell you, this restaurant absolutely exceeded my expectations. The owner's passion is evident in the amazing atmosphere and the staff's genuine care, making for a truly special experience. Delicious food and friendly staff served up one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. I’ll most definitely be coming back!
The vibe is warm and inviting, and the food was absolutely delicious. We started with the hummus and grape leaves, both were packed with flavor and so fresh. For dessert, we tried the passion fruit basque, and it was simply amazing. I also had Choublac and Ginger Ale for the first time and was genuinely impressed. Everything from the service to the atmosphere made it a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!
