Sugarcane BK’s menu is a tantalizing journey through Caribbean flavors, offering an array of dishes that excite every sense. Their Jerk Chicken Wings pack a lively punch with the perfect balance of smoky heat and tender juiciness, while the Oxtail with Yellow Rice and Vegetables melts deliciously on the palate, showcasing slow-cooked, deeply savory comfort. Rice bowls like the Stew Chicken and Jambalasi Shrimp Rice Bowl come accompanied by complimentary cabbage and golden fried plantains, which add the perfect textural contrast and sweetness.
For those craving something uniquely indulgent, the Buss Up Shot Roti stuffed with curry goat or oxtail is an absolute highlight, featuring perfectly spiced meat wrapped in soft, flaky Caribbean bread that’s truly irresistible. Sea lovers won’t miss the Jambalasi Surf and Turf or the fried shrimp paired with sweet plantains or fries, all accentuated by distinct marinades like Calypso, Jerk, or Tamarind for a burst of bold, balanced flavor.
Mocktails and cocktails at Sugarcane BK are just as memorable. The Virgin Frozen Calada offers a refreshingly tropical escape without alcohol, while the Sorrel Sangria is a fruity, aromatic delight that perfectly complements the vibrant flavors of the cuisine. Fans rave about the house-made mango dressing on their specialty salads, which adds a bright, tangy sweetness that is both surprising and delightful.
What truly sets Sugarcane BK apart is the atmosphere — small and charming, it creates an intimate dining experience that feels like a hidden gem in the bustling city. Customers praise the swift, attentive service, especially appreciated on busy nights when timing is tight, such as before a concert at nearby Barclay’s Center. The setting is stylish yet unpretentious, perfect for everything from casual outings to special celebrations, as one guest joyfully recalls celebrating a birthday here with family.

I haven't been to Sugarcane in years, went to a concert at the Barclay's, and decided to sit down for dinner and drinks before the show. We ended up at Sugarcane, almost forgot how small and cozy this place was. The got seated in 10 minutes last min on a Sat night was great. The food and waitress did their best to make sure our food and drinks came out fast. being that we were on a time crunch. The food was good, my sister didn't like her chicken it was burnt and she couldn't eat it. My food was good. I had the jerk chicken with trini fried rice with coleslaw, and it was all good. my friend got the fried chicken, she liked it. but the Star of the show was the piter of rumpunch omggg...soo good. I miss my hometown Brooklyn, always the best food and drinks. Needless to say, Sugarcane still got it after all these years...
This was my first time visiting this established and the food was delicious … the cabbage & veggies is something indescribable. When I’m back in the area I’ll definitely be back for the cabbage and veggies. Oh, the rum punch is amazing too…
It was a treat to visit Sugar Cane BK last week to celebrate my son's birthday. This place has always been great. I started eating here back in 2015. Glad to see they have kept their greatness.

Me and my bestie wanted to do bottomless brunch and this place had the best options for our vibe. I like how they have 3 different pricing options for brunch which is good if you don’t want normal brunch drinks!! The restaurant itself is very cutesy and quaint the decor kinda reminds me of Lamias. Now let’s get to the food I had oxtails …. but my bestie had pasta and honestly we couldn’t stop raving about it the sauce was so good the noodles was perfect it was just yum the drinks were made just right too!! Will sneak up on you so be careful we’re adding this to our go to place
I visited this restaurant with 2 others without reservation at around 7:30pm a friday night. It wasn't very crowded or busy which is good. The music is pumping great music, but sometimes its a little too loud for me. I had jerk chicken with rice and peas and fried Plantains. I wish they jerk was more jerky, but i like the portion of chicken. My friend had the calaloo which he said was the best he had in NY. The house made ginger beer was perfect.
