The moment you step inside, the warm ambiance immediately makes you feel at home. The staff greet you like old friends, and the smell of fresh ingredients cooking in the kitchen sets the tone for what’s to come. I remember visiting one rainy afternoon and being instantly drawn to the bright, inviting décor that somehow feels both modern and cozy at the same time.

The menu at Mangoseed Restaurant is a celebration of fresh, thoughtfully prepared dishes. Their signature dishes, like the grilled mango chicken and the hearty seafood pasta, are crafted with precision. Watching the chefs at work, it’s clear they take their craft seriously-ingredients are carefully selected and paired, ensuring every bite tells a story. On one visit, I tried their vegetarian platter, which included roasted vegetables, quinoa, and a mango-infused dressing. The balance of flavors was astonishing, proving that the restaurant doesn’t just cater to one palate but embraces diversity in taste.

I would recommend. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere cozy. The music playlist was great. However, sound a little loud for me. It may be because I am older ). I had the burger, fries and macaroni and cheese. The macaroni was delicious. The burger was tasty but had bits of gristle so disappointed. I would defintely return but probably order something else.

Amazing Tacos jerk salmon tacos! The drinks specials are on point and will def get you lit on a Friday!! We came here as a group before a concert at Kings theatre. The location was perfect walking distance.

I schedule meetings nearby just so I can eat here after. This exemplifies the standard for customer treatment. The whole group praised what they selected. This spot mixes high-end design with cozy touches. This place has mastered every detail.

Visited on 11/3/24. Went for brunch with my friends and had a great time. The dj was a little Asian dude but he was in tune with the culture. Felt right at home. The food was immaculate I 100000% reccomend the Mac and cheese. You’ll want like 3 of them after trust it’s that good. The wings were banging. Spicy but not too spicy jerk. The drinks we great. The best one we had was the Mule. It was really good. The waffle with the jerk salmon is amazing. The syrup and fruit tasted fresh. Only thing is one of my friends got the mango seed burger and it wasn’t really up to code. No biggie we got rid of it for some wings and kept it moving. All in all a great time and a minor inconvenience for a major fun time

Went for dinner last night and I just had to l leave a review because the food was so delicious. I ordered the Brooklyn mule which was strong yet still smooth and dangerous. I had the salmon with its fully developed flavors and lingering spice. The music was perfect setting a great vibe for a late night dinner. I’ll definitely be returning for the boozey brunch before hitting Prospect Park and should too

Friendly wait staff and delicious food -- highly recommend the oxtail and the macaroni and cheese! The music was a bit too loud for my preference but the service and the food was great such that I would return!

I went on a Sunday around 1pm. Food and drinks were good. I had the Jerk Salmon and Rum Punch. Music was a little too loud, couldn't really have a conversation. Other than that service was good and I would go again.

I hadn’t been to Mango Seed Restaurant in a long time, so when a friend suggested we go for dinner, I was excited to return—and I’m glad I did! The food was just as good as I remember. The jerk Bronzino with spinach excellent; the fish was seasoned well, and the spinach on top added a wonderful flavor. The rice and peas & plantains were also delicious. The jerk wings were another highlight—crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. The only thing I wasn’t a fan of was the mac and cheese; I wiI definitely need to go back again soon. If you’re ever in the neighborhood, I highly recommend you visit Mango Seed Restaurant—you won’t be disappointed!
