Prepare for a culinary explosion at Plum Restaurant and Lounge, better known as Plumbk—the Caribbean gem in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. Since its opening in December 2023, the vision of four West Indian friends—Mark, Tyrone, Carl, and Keron—has come to life as Plumbk. The menu? A vibrant fusion of Jamaican jerk and the homely delights of Trinidad and Tobago, crafted to set your taste buds on a Caribbean escapade.
Plumbk executes an ambiance of elegance wrapped in comfort, boasting modern touches and a playful nod to the plum fruit in its color palette. Each spot in the restaurant offers an Instagram-worthy moment, particularly the tropical wall with its whimsical plum-shaped seat suspended in the air. The owners’ passion is evident in their bold choice to bring this upscale dining oasis to a Brooklyn area thirsty for an authentic Caribbean vibe.
And if you’re seeking a taste of my adventure—Kikis’ recommendations are on the house! I was captivated by the succulent mussels and crab cakes paired with a mysteriously delicious sauce. The main event? A seafood platter rich in oceanic flavors and the heartwarming oxtail, rice, and peas. Oh, and for my fellow hookah lovers, Plumbk has got us covered.
To sum it up: impeccable service, unforgettable food, and an atmosphere that promises enchantment with every visit. Brooklynites and visitors, Plumbk is calling — the answer for a memorable Caribbean dining experience.

Attention, residents of Brooklyn! Brace yourselves for the latest addition to the culinary scene: Plum Restaurant and Lounge, curated by the one and only Kikis. As a seafood enthusiast, I couldn’t resist the temptation to pay a visit. And boy, was I blown away! The ambiance was nothing short of perfection, the concoctions at the bar were absolutely sensational, and the cuisine itself was a delightful symphony of flavors.
To kick off our gastronomic journey, my bestie and I indulged in the heavenly combination of mussels and crab cakes. The sauce that accompanied them was an enigma, but oh my, did it hit all the right notes! Moving on to the main course, we dived into the exquisite seafood platter and savored the tantalizing oxtail, rice, and peas. But wait, there’s more! Plum Restaurant and Lounge even offers the pleasure of indulging in hookah, which is a weakness of mine.
In summary, I was thoroughly impressed with the venue and its attentive staff. If you find yourself in Brooklyn, this location is an absolute must-visit. Trust me when I say, every day at Plum Restaurant and Lounge is an experience to remember. (Marie Driven)
