Ital Kitchen: Authentic Caribbean Vegetarian Cuisine in Brooklyn

Great wholesome food full of amazing flavors. A true ital experience! Loved everything we got and would totally come back to try more of the food.

Simply amazing food prepared and served by real, down-to-earth people who care about what they do. The highest compliments you can give to a restaurant, I give to Ital Kitchen – not many places like this left these days!

Ital Kitchen is a delightful culinary experience that brings vibrant Caribbean flavors to life. The food was absolutely delicious, bursting with bold and authentic tastes. I tried the [specific dish], and it was flavorful and perfectly seasoned. Everything was fresh, and the portions were generous, making it well worth the price. The service, however, was a bit inconsistent. While the staff was friendly and welcoming, the wait time for food was longer than expected. It seemed like they were slightly understaffed, but they made up for it with their warm hospitality and positive attitude. The atmosphere is cozy and laid-back, with colorful and eclectic decor that truly captures the Caribbean vibe. The outdoor seating area is charming and a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal with friends. I spent around $20–30 per person, which is reasonable considering the quality and portion sizes. I went for dinner, and I would recommend going early or making a reservation, as it can get quite busy. Overall, Ital Kitchen is a hidden gem with incredible food and a lively, welcoming atmosphere. If you’re craving authentic Caribbean vegetarian cuisine, this is the place to be. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I thought I came over to my family's house to have dinner the way the service was so homely. Even the customers who came in after us I thought were friends with the owner due to the comfortable conversation they were having. Amazing place to have something healthy to eat late in the evening. Intimate, warm, cozy, and full with love and gorgeous plants. Mix max colorful caribbean-style decorated spot. We were going to take it to go, but decided to stay and enjoy the lovely atmosphere. It's not a place for large groups, but a romantic date or hanging out with a couple of friends would be fitting. We can't wait to return and try other dishes on the menu.

The backyard is absolutely beautiful. They take lots of extra steps to make sure that everything is super clean and spacious. The ital stew is absolutely delicious and I always order the kale salad every time I go. All the ingredients are super fresh and i can def taste the love in every bite. Don’t forget the baked plantains and the burger is a MUST. This place is a solid gem. Will keep going back.

This cozy restaurant was like stopping by a family members house for a good home cooked meal. In this case sooooo good. We ordered the Ital Veggie Jerk Chicken and the Thai-Fi Stew. Absolutely delicious, seasoned well, and made with a whole lot of love. Then we ordered the carrot cake. It was so good that we ordered another piece and it was the last piece of cake. We will be back.

Michael (the owner) is the NICEST. Lovely eclectic decor, lots of seating for a small place. Food was uniformly great: tender, moist, well-seasoned. The veggie jerk chicken was particularly awesome! Also, don’t miss the “Yes I” smoothie.

Very delicious food! Such a relaxing vibe. My wife is vegetarian. I eat everything. We shared all our plates and loved it all.
