With us, every meal is a celebration of culture, spice, and good company. We cook with depth. We serve with intention. And we welcome you to taste the story. So come in and stay a while. Let us take care of your dinner plans.

Each dish is a tribute to where we come from and where we’re going. Black Garlic isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a love letter to ancestry, a gathering space for community, and a new chapter of homeland cooking.

Our name speaks to transformation—just as black garlic is created through slow fermentation, our dishes are crafted through time, tradition, and bold innovation. We fuse the warmth of berbers with the fire of jerk. We plate injera beside plantain, shiro beside escovitch, and pour rum beside honey wine.
