ABOUT US

Where Flavor Meets Fire

At Black Garlic, we fuse rich, international flavors with the heat of tradition. Rooted in the culinary landscapes of Ethiopia and the Caribbean, we craft bold and complex dishes that honor time, patience, and the spirit of culture.

From our kitchen to your tastebuds, every meal is an experience—a celebration of spice, story, and good company. Whether you’re joining us for dinner or taking the flavors home, we invite you to taste our legacy.

Join us at the crossroads of culture and cuisine, where each dish tells a story.

Our Story

Tradition, Spice, and Legacy

Black Garlic is more than just a restaurant—it’s a love letter to ancestry. A gathering space for community. A new chapter in the story of homeland cooking.

Rooted in the rich culinary traditions of Ethiopia and the Caribbean, we create dishes that are a tribute to both our heritage and our future. From the warmth of berbers to the fire of jerk, we bring together the vibrant flavors of two cultures united by spice, story, and strength.

Our name is a reflection of transformation. Just as black garlic undergoes a slow fermentation process to bring out its deep, rich flavors, we carefully craft each dish with time, intention, and innovation.
